Why Moto Phones Rock

25.8.11 The Reporter 0 Comments

Motorola was, and always will be, a mobile industry icon. A company that started in 1928, since then, they have been synonymous to sturdy, groundbreaking mobile device designs.

At the time when Nokias and other phone models were bulky handsets worthy of being called paperweights, Motorola pioneered the "small is powerful" design in its now-iconic "StarTAC." Since then, they've produced sleek, slick, and beautiful handsets.

For one, the RAZR, SLVR and KRZR models were the slimmest, sleekest phones available in their time. Not only were the sleek and slick profiles highly marketable, but Moto packed a punch in their phones' software, as well.

With these mid-range models capable of installing Java applications, midrange users were already given almost what a SmartPhone could do. With Bluetooth, amazing sound, and a sturdy construction, if, at that time, you weren't enamored with Palm devices or Blackberries yet, a Moto phone would suffice.

Despite a lull in Motorola's marketability, it has finally resurrected thanks to the Android. How it lagged behind in the past, it is now at the forefront of SmartPhone innovation.

What makes a Motorola a cut above other Androids? Try Battery Life. With Android users complaining mostly about their devices' battery life, or its lack of longevity, the Motorola Droids boast of standby times up in at least 200 hours of standby, and at least 8 to 10 hours of talk time. Exactly what an Android user needs. And while HTC probably rules the Android roost, some Motorola units' designs are still exciting, or even more exciting than the HTC portfolio:


These three are worth checking out in the Motorola portfolio.

Also, the Motorola Droids (like the Droid Bionic) are powered by NVIDIA's Tegra 2 Processor, making it a faster machine compared to a Snapdragon-powered HTC Thunderbolt. This means that if you buy a Moto Droid Bionic, you'll have a phone that's as powerful as an Android tablet. Things like these are worth considering when you're in the market for a new Android device.

On the whole, the Google purchase of Motorola Mobility was great news. With machines designed to be as powerful as these, expect the market to have top-notch Android offerings from Motorola -- Top-notch, inside and out, software and hardware.
