The Motion itsef. 8
The size of the Motion screen coming from a DX (Same 4.3"). 5
Metro service (Network) 8
Metro phone agents you Cuss for not Serving you. 4
Metro on-line chat or Faceplant team. 8.5
Metro's mail in rebate BS. 6

If it were me, I'd try for one of the very good condition, KNOWN CLEAN ESSN #s Spirits from Ebay for less than around $200 shipped.

[EDIT] To be more clear. The missing glass on the Motion was very noticeable for me. The only way I'd get one now would be just to use for a few months til something I REALLY wanted came along And if I got a real good deal on it. It's a really good phone with just too damn small of a screen.

The ONLY thing that pisses me off about the Spirit is that there's NOT a GSM model of it.

I love it...came from Verizon....my bill now is only 35 bucks...pretty fast internet...pretty fast phone...no complaints yet...get it...
 
I would seriously do some research to make sure your area has good 4G coverage, because once you're out of 4G it's just 1X, no middle ground.

My only gripe is size and display. That's IT.
For a phone this size, it packs a LOT of power. It even beats the Galaxy S3 in benchmark comparison
Speed is good, on my wifi at home (which goes about 30-40mbps), I get pretty much most of it. (on a device that small, you won't need that much throughput anyway, it'll kill your battery quick. Metro's 4G on average got me anywhere from 2-5mbps in CT, and up to 9mbps in florida)
It wont rock GTA3 or anything, but it's decent for gaming if you really wanted to play on a phone that small.

I'd say go phor it!

I've played gta3 on my motion before
 
Liked mine so much that I went out and bought an LG Spirit a few months later.

Great phone, but the screen is a bit small.

The Spirit screen size is just right - not too big, not too small.

I hate huge phones that won't allow you to sit when they are in your front pocket.
 
I bought one and I absolutely love it. My son came over to check it out and after playing around with it for a while he bought one as well. Then after trying it out, his wife got one. Also, it was really easy to root.
 
If you don't have a problem with the smaller screen, for me its the best mobile on the market for the money. I tried using my wife's S3, and gave it back and kept my Motion. It does everything almost flawlessly and fits in my back pocket no problem. Best Android phone I've ever had.
