As most unboxings go, this one is unfortunately a little on the blasé side.  However, I wanted to show everyone that might be interested what came with the Moto CLIQ.  Having never owned a T-Mo phone or any other Moto phone for that matter (the StarTac I had back in 2000 really doesn’t count, right??), I had no idea what to expect.

When I woke up this morning, I was greeted to a FedEx bubble wrap envelope at my door.  Opening it up revealed the box below.

My Moto CLIQ’s box. Its showing a little wear…

Small box… I was hoping for a little more in it that I got.  I stopped by a local T-Mo store, and interestingly enough they confirmed the contents for me.

The CLIQ in its box…

The review unit is in very good condition, but the box is showing some wear. Its also unfortunately, a fingerprint magnet (as you can see).

The entire contents of the CLIQ’s box.  There’s not much here…

From left to right we have the micro USB cable, a set of 4 booklets (I haven’t opened them yet, obviously), a phone recycle envelope, the AC adapter (the USB cable plugs into it), and a set of 3.5mm headphones.

We’ve come a long way from the days when not only USB cables but FULL AC adapters as well as basic cases were included with a device.  While the CLIQ is currently $199 (I saw it for $149 at Wal-Mart last night here in Chicago), and approximately $400 unlocked, I was a bit surprised to see so little coming with the device.

I’m working with the device, and have been playing with it most of the day. I have my Twitter, Facebook and mail accounts synchronized to the device as well as my JAMM Google Apps account. So far, I’ve had a good day with the device, but after reading some of the T-Mo forums for the device, its clear it has some challenges.  The debate over MOTOBLUR, Android 2.0 and the CLIQ seems to have a lot of device owners returning the device and going with a My Touch 3G (or other device).  This is going to be an interesting two weeks…

Stay tuned, kids… I’ve got a lot planned for this thing!
