Motorola MILESTONE preview: First look
Gsmarena have posted a preview of the Motorola Droid. Here are the phone's features and their final impression.
Motorola MILESTONE at a glance:
* General: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz, UMTS 900/2100 MHz, HSDPA 10.2Mbps; HSUPA 5.76 Mbps
* Form factor: Full QWERTY side-slider
* Dimensions: 115.8 x 60 x 13.7 mm, 165g
* Display: 3.7" 16M color capacitive TFT LCD touchscreen of WVGA resolution (854 x 480 pixels)
* OS: Android 2.0
* Memory: 133 MB internal memory, 256 MB RAM, microSD card slot (up to 16GB) , 8GB microSD card included in the retail package
* CPU: ARM Cortex A8 550 MHz processor with dedicated graphics accelerator
* Camera: 5 megapixel autofocus camera with dual LED flash and D1 video recording at 30 fps
* Connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, standard microUSB port, GPS receiver with A-GPS, 3.5mm standard audio jack
* Misc: Accelerometer for screen auto rotate, FM radio with RDS, Motonav navigation software, digital compass, Proximity sensor for auto turn-off, Multi-touch input and pinch-zooming gestures
* Battery: 1400mAh Li-Ion battery
You won’t call it love at first sight when a device of this bulk is involved but we really liked handling the Motorola MILESTONE. The handset was quick to grab our attention and performance didn’t let us down so its prospects seem pretty good. From the interface looks and response to build quality, the Milestone behaves admirably and is sure to make many users happy.
Hopping on the Android bandwagon might have looked like Motorola catching one of the last trains out of Loser station. But in fact there’s nothing about the MILESTONE to suggest a rushed and sloppy job. It is easily the most feature-packed Android we’ve laid our hands on and if the good impressions last after the full review, we don’t see why that last minute ticket can’t be their winning one.
