Motorola Krave ZN4 (Verizon Wireless) price range: $6.59
- Reviewed by: Kent German

The good: The Motorola Krave ZN4 has an eye-catching and unique design with an innovative and responsive touch interface. It offers a bevy of high-end features and rates favorably in call, photo, and streaming video quality.
The bad: The Motorola Krave ZN4's browser and QWERTY keyboard take acclimation, and camera editing features were few. The Krave lacks Wi-Fi, and full exchange support is not available at launch.
The bottom line: The Motorola Krave ZN4 accomplishes something few other cell phones do: it's unique, easy to use, and it performs well.
Exactly one year after we reviewed the intriguing Motorola Ming, Moto finally has brought a variant of the phone to the United States. The new Motorola Krave ZN4 for Verizon Wireless offers the same basic design that resembles a Star Trek communicator, but it adds more features while offering innovative design tweaks to an intuitive and easy-to-use touch interface. We had a few complaints--there's still no Wi-Fi, the camera lacks editing features and the Web browser and keyboard take acclimation--but the Krave remains a sharp and satisfying device that's sure to become a conversation piece. Performance was agreeable and the price of $149 with a two-year contract is reasonable.
Design
Even two years after its predecessor and look-alike emerged from Motorola's factory, the Krave ZN4 still sports one of the most distinctive cell phone designs around. The slim and compact shape (4.13 inches by 2 inches by 0.75 inch and 4.59 ounces), vibrant touch screen, and transparent plastic cover give the Krave a sleek and futuristic look. Though some may wonder why the cover is needed, Moto says it's designed to not only protect the touch display but to also give Krave the aesthetics of a flip phone. That may sound a bit corny, but we ate it up completely.
Yet, in addition to just looking cool, the Krave's cover is also usable. In fact, it is a secondary touch surface you can use to access a selection of features without even flipping it open. You even get a bit of tactile feedback to help you press the right thing. It's all possible thanks to an innovative mesh that is embedded in the cover (the mesh blends in with gray color of the screen so you may have to hold it up to a light to see it). That same mesh also delivers sound to the Krave's speaker, which again sits on one end of the cover.
Moto doesn't allow access to every feature via the cover's touch surface but the company conducted user studies as to which features they should choose. They came up with the music player, the V Cast Mobile TV, the photo folder, and the VZ Navigator feature. That's a useful assortment of goodies; if we had to suggest anything it would be to add a V Cast streaming video option as well.
Unlike the Ming, the Krave allows you to make voice dial calls without opening the cover. Just press the control on the right spine and you can speak the name or phone number of the person you want to ring. What's more, you also phone your voice mail or your most recently called number. Once you're connected, touch controls allow you to mute the call, route the audio to a Bluetooth headset, and end your connection. And yes, you can perform all those commands without opening the cover. Just keep in mind that when you start a call with the cover closed, audio is routed through the speakerphone. To turn the speakerphone off but remain connected, just open the cover.
The display measures 2.8 inches and supports 65,000 colors (240x400 pixels). It's bright and gorgeous with eye-popping colors, sharp graphics and photos, and readable text. You can change the brightness, the backlight time, the clock format, and the dialing font size. In standby mode, you'll notice a shortcut bar with icons for the messaging folder, the dialpad, the main menu, and the contacts list. You also can access the menu by tapping the middle of the display. The display is difficult to see in direct light, but that's not unusual on a cell phone.
Unlike the Linux-based Ming, the Krave doesn't use a third-party operating system, so it isn't a true smartphone. Yet, that's really the whole point since the handset is meant to offer a lot of functionality with an attractive and intuitive interface. We were thrilled to see that the Krave ditches the unintuitive and poorly designed menu interface that Verizon has slapped on almost all its handsets over the past few years. Instead, the main menu shows 12 icons that sit below the aforementioned shortcut bar. We like that you can get to multiple features with a single tap and that all multimedia functions aren't buried under a single submenu. Also, it's easy to move backward through subfolders.
The Krave ZN4's touch interface is accurate and responsive with no lag time. What's more, the tactile feedback and the onscreen highlights that show where you're pressing are helpful. The Krave doesn't come with a stylus but we had absolutely no gripes with navigating through the menus. Like many other touch-screen phones, you can browse through long lists by dragging your finger up and down the screen. The motion is fluid without any jerky movements.
The onscreen numeric dialpad is plain but easy to use. An "Options" button will open your contacts menu and your recent calls. Also, you can program a "favorites" menu of your best friends. The numbers on the touch keys are large but the alphabetic text is small. You'll also find a redial shortcut, and when you're on a call you can activate the speakerphone with one touch. Just keep in mind that closing the cover will end your call.
Though you can tap out messages using the standard nine-digit and Moto's predicative text keypad, there's really no need since the Krave offers a full QWERTY keyboard. It's convenient, to be sure, but we had mixed feelings about its design. It felt relatively spacious--an admirable feat considering the display is rather small as touch screens go--so we never felt cramped when tapping away. But on the downside, holding the phone with two hands feels a bit awkward since you must reach your thumb around the open cover. We got used to it eventually, but we imagine that people with smaller hands may have more trouble. Alternatively, you can tap with one finger and hold the phone with the other hand. Either way, we had no misdials and could type quickly. As you go along, it will suggest words and attempt to correct errors.
The ZN4's keyboard includes three dedicated punctuation keys, an "@" button, a well-placed space bar, clear and return controls, and a shift button. You can access numbers and additional symbols through a secondary keyboard. Thanks to the phone's accelerometer, you can flip between the standard and QWERTY keyboard by rotating the phone.
Above the display are a power control and a "Home" button that will take you to the standby screen. They're a tad small, but they're convenient. Just keep in mind that they're hidden behind the cover when it is closed. On the left spine you'll find a display-locking switch, a voice dialing control, a memory card slot, and a camera shutter. Located on the right spine are a 3.5mm headset jack (yay!), a volume rocker, and a micro USB port. The latter also accommodates the charger. The camera lens, sans a flash or self-portrait mirror, sits at the top of the phone's back side, while a single speaker rests at the bottom.
Features
The Krave's has a 1,000-contact phone book with room in each entry for five phone numbers and two e-mail addresses. You can save callers to the aforementioned Favorites list and you can assign them a photo or one of the 24 polyphonic ringtones. Other essentials include a vibrate mode, text and multimedia messaging, a calendar, an alarm clock, a calculator, a notepad, a world clock, and a tip calculator.
Beyond the basics you'll find stereo Bluetooth, voice dialing, USB mass storage, PC syncing, and access to Verizon's Visual Voicemail feature. E-mail options are decent, but at the time of this writing they're not complete. The Krave allows access to Yahoo, Windows Live, AOL, AIM, and Verizon.net POP3 accounts. On the whole, it was an easy process since the ZN4 doesn't force you to go through Verizon's Web portal (that option is available, though). Indeed, we opened our Yahoo mail account in just a few seconds. You can access Gmail as well, but you must go through the Web portal. That's odd and a bit inconvenient. Unfortunately, IMAP4 is limited to only accounts with Outlook Web Access (OWA). Moto said full exchange support is coming, but the company didn't set a date. As such, you won't be able to sync contacts and the calendar. That won't be an issue for many people, but at least for now, serious worker bees should look elsewhere.
The Krave offers a ton of multimedia options with the must-see V Cast Mobile TV as a headliner. Unfortunately, we still don't get that service in the San Francisco Bay Area (probably in 2009), but we've seen the application in other cities and have enjoyed the experience. The clips will run in landscape format for a more TV-like experience. And when the cover is open, the Krave will balance on its side while you watch.
As an EV-DO phone, the ZN4 supports Verizon's V Cast streaming service. Options and channels are similar to other V Cast phones, but the Crave offers a tweaked interface to go along with its unique design. You can watch clips in either portrait or landscape mode, and the accelerometer allows you to switch between the two orientations seamlessly. You can pause your clips and skip between videos using the onscreen controls.
Music lovers can use Verizon's V Cast Music with Rhapsody service to download clips over the air. After you download a lot of tracks, the service will recommend more songs based on your purchases. Similar to other V Cast Music phones, the music player's features are limited to shuffle and repeat modes and playlists, but the Krave offers its own take on the iPhone's "cover flow" interface. When you turn the phone on its side, you can flick through the various album icons to choose the song you want. The experience isn't as fluid as on the iPhone--you must tap the individual icons instead of swiping your finger--but it's still cool.
Unfortunately, the 2-megapixel camera was rather disappointing. Not only we were hoping for at least a 3.2-megapixel shooter, but we also were surprised at the total lack of editing features. Your only option is a digital zoom so don't get any ideas about changing the resolution or the color tone. The camcorder is equally devoid of features. Clips meant for multimedia messages are limited to 20 seconds, but you can record for a full hour in standard mode.
On the upside, the Krave takes decent photos with bright colors and little image noise. There's no flash, however, so you'll need adequate lighting. Also, vanity shots are tricky without a self-portrait mirror. On the upside, the Krave offers a nifty slide show option. Just turn the phone on its side, switch the feature on, and you can watch all your shots in succession. When you're finished taking photos, you can transfer them to a computer or printer via Bluetooth or a USB cable, send them in a multimedia message, or store them in an online album.
For the chronically lost, the Krave supports Verizon's VZ Navigator service. You can get audible directions, local traffic and maps, and a searchable points-of-interest database. The Krave also adds an option for searching local movie show times. VZ Navigator uses the accelerometer to work both in portrait and landscape modes.
We were a bit torn over the Krave's Web browser. On the upside, it integrates well with the touch interface and it makes use of the accelerometer. It's accurate, the response time is quick, and we didn't encounter the annoying hiccups we had on Verizon's Samsung Glyde and Sprint's Samsung Instinct. But the Krave offers a unique tool in its browser that we found both useful and cumbersome. When you're browsing through a page, a circular icon with an arrow at its top end appears on the display. The icon is meant to be used as a cursor--not only can you follow your finger around the page, but you also can use the arrow to select links. Most of the time it worked well, and we admit that it is an innovative feature, but other times it made for a clunky experience. For example, it was difficult to select small links on crowded pages. It's not perfect, but we give Moto points just the same. The browser defaults to mobile Web sites, but it can show full HTML pages as well.
You can personalize the Krave with a selection of wallpaper and ringtones and you can type a personalized banner. More options and more ringtones are available for download using the Web browser. The Krave doesn't come with any games but you can buy a selection of titles from Verizon.
Performance
We tested the dualband, dualmode (CDMA: 800/1900; EV-DO) Krave ZN4 in San Francisco using Verizon Wireless service. Call quality was excellent. We enjoyed clear conversations with no static, interference, or face-outs. What's more, there was no connection lag and dropped calls were nonexistent. Our only complaint was that when the volume was at its highest levels--and it gets plenty loud--the voices became just a bit distorted. But most of time, voices sounded natural.
On their end, callers said we sounded great. They had no problems hearing or understanding us, even when we were talking in a noisy place. A few people reported a slight background hum, but other couldn't even tell we were using a cell phone. Automated calling systems could understand us, but the quality was best when we were inside. Speakerphone calls were equally good, as were calls made with a Bluetooth headset.
V Cast streaming videos performed well. The video was fluid and we encountered no hiccups or connection problems. Also, videos started quickly and the sound matched the action on the screen. Quick movements were a bit trickier, but that's not unusual on 3G streaming video. Yet, we really love that we can watch clips in a landscape orientation with the phone resting on its side. As mentioned previously, we're unable to test V Cast TV in San Francisco, but we've always been impressed by the high-quality video when we've seen it before.
Music quality was pretty good. The single speaker on the rear face has decent output but the sound lacks warmth and the bass level is negligible. Like many music phones, it's fine for short stints but we wouldn't chuck our standalone MP3 player. You'll get a better experience from headphones. Song downloads were just a bit pokey; it took about 2 minutes to get a 3.7MB track. Otherwise, the EV-DO connection was relatively strong.
The Motorola Krave ZN4 has a rated battery life of 4.2 hours talk time and 20.8 days standby time. Our tests showed the Krave ZN4 has a talk time of 6 hours 6 minutes. According to FCC radiation tests, the Krave has a digital SAR of 1.16 watts per kilogr

Great New Phone for Verizon

Summary: So I have been using this phone for a couple of days now, and I am definitely happy with my purchase. I went with this over the LG Dare because I liked the idea of some protection over the touch screen, and I prefer flip phones. I am a basic phone user; I make calls, occasionally text, and use the camera for those situations when I want to snap a quick picture when I don't have my digital camera. For those things, this phone has been perfect so far. Yeah, it gets smudgy from handling it, but what fancy devices don't these days? The browser is not up to snuff with that of other phones like the Dare and especially the iPhone, but I don't use that feature much so that doesn't really affect me. I would recommend trying it out for yourself if you are on the fence. Overall, I would definitely recommend this phone to anyone in the market for a new one. It does those basic things a phone should do, and does the extra things well too.

great product...does have a small learning curve!!
by djdougd on October 25, 2008
Pros: Very good phone quality, VCast video blazes quickly, web browser loads sites quickly, touch screen works very well, .love the tactile touch on it better than the LG Voyager, screen quality is nice, like the fact that I don't have to squint to read it
Cons: using the Querty keyboad takes a small learning curve. miss one touch key dialing--not a big fan of favorites contact list. Don't like the fact that I cannot access voice activated dialing without clearing VM or missed call indicators
Summary: I had gotten used to my LG Voyager but I am a loyal Motorola fan so I tried this device...I do like a lot and would recommend it...you ...
Summary: I had gotten used to my LG Voyager but I am a loyal Motorola fan so I tried this device...I do like a lot and would recommend it...you do need to adapt to the touch screen and Querty keyboard. The web browser mouse does take getting used to but it is more responsive than on the Voyager!!

Summary: If you like Motorola phones, this is for you. I have always preferred flip phones but find the touch phones easier to navigate with. This phone has the best of both worlds. I've had this phone now for several days and I couldn't be happier. The virtual QWERTY keyboard does take a little time to get used to, but it really didn't take long to figure out that all you have to do is place the cover between your index finger and middle finder with your left hand and typing with two hands is a breeze. The video quality with this phone is outstanding. Watching VCast TV is smooth and very, very easy to use. Another big plus is that even with the cover closed, you can still use the touch screen to answer phone calls or text messages without ever having to open it.
I'm telling you that if you like flip phones and want the latest touch screen technology, then look no further. This is by far the best phone Motorola has put out.6 out of 6 users found this user opinion helpful.

Incredible phone
by davebert26 on October 22, 2008
Pros: touch screen, clear flip screen design, very eye-catching, menus fairly easy to navigate, virtual qwerty keyboard, visual vmail
Cons: no camera options, touch screen takes a little practice to get used to. difficult to type without looking at the phone.

Summary: While the Krave has it's positive and negatives, I really do like the phone. I've had it for about a day now. It's a very fun phone to use. Screen is very crisp and clear. I like the dual touch screen (using the phone with the flip closed) though I'd like to be able to do more with out opening the phone.
The interface is a little too slow for my liking. I have an Ipod touch so i'm used to how quickly the ITouch/iPhone responds. It's also fairly easy to push the wrong button if you have larger fingers. But overall with a little adaptation, you shouldn't have any problems using the phone. It just takes a little while to get used to.
The qwerty keyboard was a plus for me. I'm a fairly heavy texter although i have not had a phone with the qwerty keyboard. I thought that it might be an adjustment from standard texting. The qwerty keyboard seemed easier to use than the standard texting screen. The clear flip screen can be a little in the way when using the qwerty keyboard but it didn't make typing too difficult. It could be a problem if you have smaller hands.
I'm not much of a picture taker, so it means a little to me but there are no camera options besides zoom in and out.
Visual Voice Mail is a plus although it requires an additional monthly fee. Also has Vcast music and TV although those features are useless to me because Vcast hasn't really been developed in my area.
Overal, it's a great phone, I really like and despite the few faults i found in it, it's worth keeping. Mostly takes a little time to adjust to the touch screen userface. It will definitely catch peoples eyes!6 out of 6 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: When I first started to read the reviews I almost did not get this phone. Now that I have used it for about a month, I can say I'm extremely pleased with it. It's comfortable to hold and has great reception and sound quality. It's definitely not a phone for you if you're an extreme texter since the software won't keep up with fast typing. But everything else works great. Some reviewers balked at the supposed inability to delete the call history but that is simple to do. Just read the top of page 40 of the manual. Others said some of the menus were repetitive, such as the menu button on the main screen since you get the menu anyway when you tap the screen. But I found that button a helpful feature to remove the menu after it has been displayed. True, the qwerty keyboard is a little awkward to use with both hands since the flip cover gets in the way, but I'm a slow, one finger typist anyway so it really didn't matter. The keys are receptive and I rarely hit a wrong letter while typing. Same for the keys when dialing a number....I used to have a LG Voyager and that would always misread the key I was actually typing. Not on this phone....it generally gets it right the first time. I am used to having shortcut keys, which this phone does not, but I think this will be fixed with a software update. The LG Voyager was the same way when it was introduced before an update happened. It would also be nice to have the icons you want to have on the main screen versus what they have fixed. All in all, as a phone it is great and would even be better with a few software fixes.
By the way, that little ghost cursor to help maneuver around the web pages is brilliant. I love using it and find it extremely helpful.

Excellant Phone..Who needs an iPhone.

Pros: Cool design and plenty of features. Phone quality is outstanding. I prefer clam shaped phones and really like the see through screen that protects but minimizes the phone size while in pocket.
Cons: Touch screen takes a little getting used to.

Pretty Decent Touch Screen For Verizon!

- Touch Controls are sketchy
- No camera flash
- Can't change resolutions on the camera.

Summary: My friend just bought this phone from verizon wireless, and he wants to return it because he said the touch screen texting is just awful, they still havent perfected it. He really liked how the flip cover held the ear speaker. I tried the phone out for a day and the sound quality for music was despicable, while the call quality was great. For me, call quality plays a major part of my decision, but it isn't a win-over. I personally need a phone with good phone quality, and great features and this just wasnt for him, or for me. It sure is a head-turner, but if your a texter, a person who wants a good camera, a vcast-lover you probably wont want this phone. Like i said, if you want a great phone for calling, to turn few heads, this could be the phone for you. If a texter is reading this, i would highly recommend a Voyager, an Alias, or an Env2.

Not the greatest phone..looks nice though
by iron_clad on March 13, 2009
Pros: has a nice look to it..and just like how most people do,base things on looks, I happen to buy it just for its looks...but its what its capable of doin that counts...
Cons: Theres alot..Screen is super sensitive, especially if your a texter like me. Phone has shut off on me (not to many times, but it has) Its freezes, when it wants to.
Summary: If you have super super skinny fingers, the size of a pencil tip..this phone is perfect for you. But if you have real fingers like me..i suggest you ...
Summary: If you have super super skinny fingers, the size of a pencil tip..this phone is perfect for you. But if you have real fingers like me..i suggest you dont get this phone..it would take you a good 5 minutes to type in a simple message. Stick to button pushing...touch screens are no good. Just in my opinion.

There's still more to be desired from the OS
by jaded601 on January 15, 2009
Pros: Touch Screen is more fluid for those that don't have petite (stylos-like) fingers. Cover and phone is very steardy. Micro SD can be accessed without taking the batter out. The physical lock key that keep you from accidentally accessing the phone.
Cons: The Verizon OS is still restrictive. You can not designate files in the music folders as ring tones like you can with any of the Mings. It cannot use a generic mini usb connector. The connector is exclusive to that phone.
Summary: This is a nice phone but it leaves much more to be desired. The touch screen is more fluid than most of its predecessors. The scrolling mimic's the Iphone ...
Summary: This is a nice phone but it leaves much more to be desired. The touch screen is more fluid than most of its predecessors. The scrolling mimic's the Iphone but is not up to par. New users who are getting used to the phone will find themselves selecting options when they are trying to scroll. However once you get the hang of it, the annoyance is less noticable. There is a physical lock key which is extremely helpful because this phone has a touch screen on the cover as well.
The large screen is a plus. The phone is larger than most of its predecessors but the screen expands the entire length. It is a steardy design for those of us who find ourselves prone to dropping our phones. The phone has a Micro SD slot that is accessible without removing the battery. This is a very big plus. It can use up to 8gb card. However, since there isn't much to download in the way of applications, why do you need so much memory?
The fact that this phone does not have Wifi is a big negative. Since the OS is restrictive and there is no Wifi, this phone is not really a smart phone. With out these features having 8gb of memory seems useless. So I think that is phone is just that... a phone. If you are looking for something more than that then you may be disappointed.2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

Cons: flip phone in combo with touch screen was awkward and a bit annoying. camera left a lot to be desired. battery completly drained overnight. cover for charger plug-in was flimsy and did not stay snapped in place from the begining.

Summary: after reading reviews of this phone on CNUT i thought i would give it a try, but it just did not cut it for the money. texting was very awkward using the qwerty keyboad due to the clear flip cover. build quality is questionable. camera has absolutely no features whatsoever. it is, however to coolest looking phone i've ever had. but...looks fade. when it came to function and quality, it just did not cut it. i went back to verizon and traded it in for the lg dare. if this phone is free in two years, i may get it again.
