Motorola (MSI-N) has received mixed reviews from various experts, highlighting both its strengths and challenges. While the company has established a solid reputation in communications and security, especially among government and military clients, concerns regarding its software management segment have emerged. The increasing influence of AI on software pricing poses questions about future profitability. Despite the recent volatility in its stock price, some analysts view it as a good long-term investment, suggesting an opportunity to buy on dips. Overall, while Motorola has a legacy of success in the industry, it currently faces headwinds that could affect its growth trajectory.

DON'T BUY
Not a fan. They came out with the razor phone, but didn't have any follow-up. Their competitors are gaining market share.
WEAK BUY
New product portfolio isn't strong enough to get the stock moving. They've tried to expand into India and China, but Nokia has that market already. Even so he says it's a strong stock, but he thinks you should buy Nokia instead.
DON'T BUY
Used to own it. Major negetive revisions. Wouldn't touch it.
BUY
Few missteps, which dropped the stock. If profit margins only get back to half of what they used to be, it will have considerable upside. On asset value, 30% of the total value of the company is in cash giving downside protection.
DON'T BUY
This is a company that is clearly in trouble. Can't see any light at the end of the tunnel. Would buy Nokia (NOK-N) instead.
DON'T BUY
Just warned and the stock dropped over 6%. Chinese handset manufacturers are coming out with $25 phones, which is tough to compete with.
DON'T BUY
The razor phones were very hot, which is why stock did so well. However, that was last year's product and you don't buy a stock because of one hot product. They just warned on earnings creating a further drop. They have a lot more work to do.
BUY
This will rise or fall on its cell phone business. This area is a real dogfight. Luckily, it's a big market and there may be room for everybody. Almost a fashion accessory now. A much better company that was a decade ago. Can see a lot of risk under $20.
BUY
Model price came down to $23 after they issued a profit warning. This is a 24% positive differential.
DON'T BUY
Has the same problem as other cell phone companies. The cell phone market is growing but the prices are dropping.
DON'T BUY
Recently pre-announced a lower quarter and lower margins. Competitive market for cell phones is very fierce.
DON'T BUY
Pretty good company. Has gone through a nice comeback in cell phones. This is almost a fashion business and it is hard to see the sustainability. If you want something in this area, he would prefer a Cisco (CSCO-Q) or Microsoft (MSFT-Q).
DON'T BUY
Not the right stage in the cycle.
BUY
A lot of competition and the low-end market is getting lots of sales, which lower the margins. Also some inventory overhang, Transition to 3G has not been as smooth as had been hoped. With the low P/E, it’s a good place to park some money.
HOLD
Spending is slowing down in the sector. Don’t have the same killer products that they had. Have gone through the major part of their restructuring. No great outlook in the short term, but wouldn’t sell. Good solid long-term company in the area that’s growing.
