Motorola is going to launch three new headsets in the next few months. Don’t wait to much for them, because even if the concepts are relatively up-to-date (eco-friendly, military ruggedness, touchscreens) their designs sucks big time!
The Renew W233 is a yellow candybar made from recycled water bottles which costs 20% less to manufacture has a carbon neutral footprint and a Motorola promise to invest in renewable energy programs. Great, except ugly phones are a tough sell to even the most dedicated of environmentalists.
The Tundra VA76r is a military-spec, rugged PTT clamshell. It features a 2MP camera, stereo Bluetooth, aGPS and support for a 4GB microSD card and it comes with CrystalTalk Plus (uses a second microphone to filter out and reduce background noise) but seeing the same design rehash from last year is boring.
The third one, Surf A3100 is a touch-based replacement for Motorola’s Ming. It comes with a 2.8-inch display, quad-band GSM/EDGE, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and two cameras—a 3MP with autofocus and a secondary VGA for videophoning, as well as support up to 32GB microSD cards.
Wow…
In my country, a clamshell phone is identic as girly phone.. But, now, Motorolla makes a phone with military spec… I don’t know what are my friends’s comment…
And for Surf A3100, I think its design was inspired by iPhone or O2 Flame..
poor designs. lack of creativity. no wonder the company is doing so poorly compared to other cell phone companies.
i dont see anything wrong with them, or am i not a cellular geek
The Renew W233’s shape isn’t so bad, but does it only come in that hideous yellow?
I do like that the Renew is made from recycled water bottles and has a carbon neutral footprint.
yea i went to the actual website, and i dont like the yellow looks like a kids toy
every since the razor i haven’t seen anythign cool from lately, but iphone put everybody out of biz, then verizon copied and made a touch screen cell
they might make a comeback
i saw a razor for auction….no bids lol
at all nada zilch jack!
Still it changes its functionality moto will be a failure one in India.
I got a motorzr few months back but returned in 2 days..I got it only for its sleek design but as far as its use it is below par.
I lost nearly 60% of its price while resale..Thats the marketing value of motorola in India.
