The phone included stylized features such as a glossy glass finish.

A GSM/EDGE model was released by AT&T, Rogers Wireless, T-Mobile, SunCom Wireless and Cincinnati Bell Wireless under the name Motokrzr K1, and a CDMA 1x/EV-DO model was released by Pocket Communications, Verizon Wireless, Sprint, US Cellular, Alltel, Virgin Mobile Canada and Boost Mobile under the name Motokrzr K1m. The exact features and technical specifications differed significantly between models.
