Camera Phones Plaza

Motorola Q9h brings a QWERTY keyboard, thus making it a great messaging device. The phone also offers solid call quality and a set of multimedia features. More than that, you can benefit of GPS, world roaming and even take some pictures using the 2 megapixels camera. In some occasions, users complained about the phone being sluggish and not so thrilled about the lack of the scroll wheel. Also, the battery life drains quickly, so if you have a busy day, don’t forget to take the charger with you. In terms of design, it might not be the most gorgeous one, not being even sleek and so, but it does a good job and it has what mobile professionals need.

Motorola Q9h has a wide design and might be weird for those who hold it in their hands. But when it comes to typing messages, it is very comfortable and it has a soft-touch finish for a better grip. Even when trying to place the phone in your pockets, it leads to a tight fit. But this is the trend with messaging phones, they are designed to be wide, so the keyboard layout to be spacious. On the front side you have the 2.5” QVGA screen, supporting 65.536 colors and with a pixel resolution of 320x240. Images and text look sharp and vibrant and the adaptive technology adjusts the backlighting of the screen depending on the environment. This is very useful, because even in direct sunlight you will be able to see what is on the display. The navigation array below consists o the usual keys and the five-way navigation toggle, with the central select key. You need to be more firm, because they are flat to the surface and stiff.

And now for the main attraction: the full QWERTY keyboard, which is one of the best, featuring large keys, even though not too spaced. The keys are bubbly; brightly backlit, tactile and the number keys are highlighted in blue. The scroll wheel on the original Motorola Q has been replaced with up and down keys and as well, select and back buttons, located on the right side. On the left side is the micro USB port and on the back you can find the camera with flash. The microSD expansion slot accepts cards up to 32GB, so you should have plenty of space for all your files. This Motorola device runs on Windows Mobile 6 Standard Edition, so you benefit of Microsoft Direct Push Technology for delivering e-mails in real time. You can also access POP3 and IMAP accounts and there is a handy wizard that will guide you through the process. And so you know, instant messaging clients are pre-installed and they include Yahoo, Windows Live, and AIM.

Productivity applications include Microsoft Office Mobile, thus you can now open, edit and create new files, such as Word, PowerPoint and Excel documents. The PDF viewer on-board allows you to open PDFs. As for personal management tools, Motorola Q9h includes task list, calendar, notepad, voice recorder, calculator. Using Bluetooth, you can get wireless headsets, as there are many great ones available from Motorola, hands-free kits and stereo Bluetooth headsets. Finally, with GPS, you get colored maps, driving directions and information about point of interests. You can get additional services, like Google Maps or TeleNav GPS Navigator.

Motorola wants to impress and just like any other company out there, it tries the hardest to capture the market with something innovative, something that shines. With its models, it succeeds in some occasions, but some users are difficult and they want different things, thus it is not always possible to know their desires. Motorola Krave is indeed a very interesting phone, because it brings an unique design, has a very responsive touch interface and it comes with loads of features, including video streaming quality, good photo and call quality as well. But the phone has some bad points as well: it lacks Wi-Fi, camera editing options are few and the QWERTY keyboard needs some time to get used to. Without doubts the phone has some strong points and it succeeds where others fail: it is easy to use, catchy and has a good overall performance.

Regarding design, the phone is compact and has a slim shape, so the company keeps the same road as with the Razr collection. There is a transparent plastic cover that the phone has and many wondered about its use. Actually, the company states that it is designed to protect the touch screen, but to give the impression that this is a flip phone. Believe it or not, you will fall for the explanation at some point. But Motorola Krave does not only look good, but the cover is very usable as well. It acts as a secondary touch interface and you can use it to have access to a set of features without having to flip the phone. When you press something, you get tactile feedback. All is possible thanks to an innovative mesh that also delivers sound to the phone’s speaker. The features you can use through the cover are: music player, photo folder, VZ Navigator and the V Cast Mobile TV. These are not picked up randomly, as user studies have been made.

Moreover, voice dial control is also supported, so just press the control on the right side of the phone, speak up the name or the phone number and it rings. But the speakerphone is activated until you open the cover. The display has 2.8” and supports 65.000 colors, with a pixel resolution of 240x400. It is bright and looks very nice and colors seem to pop out of the screen. You can make adjustments regarding the clock format, dialing font, brightness and the backlighting time. Unlike other Verizon mobile phones (that is if you choose to buy this phone from Verizon), the menu interface is not from the company, but it has 12 icons and you can get multiple features with just one tap. When you will use your fingers, the touch experience turns out to be accurate and responsive and the tactile feedback will tell you if you pressed the right control.

When it is time to type messages and text, you can use the predictive text keypad, the standard nine-digit, but the full QWERTY keyboard will do the job perfectly. The layout is spacious, but as the touch screen is cramped, you will not have a lot of space to see what you are typing. The keyboard includes dedicated punctuation keys, a space-bar, shift button and the clear and return controls. The secondary keyboard provides numbers and more symbols if needed. The built-in accelerometer is also useful to switch between the standard and the QWERTY keyboard.

What do you think of when you need to personalize your mobile phone? You probably think of cases and colored protective accessories, but personalizing your headset can be done from the inside. You can get several items, among which themes, ringtones, wallpapers and you can change how your phone looks and sounds. Most of these come for free and you can download them from authorized websites.

Some ringtones are a bit hard to find, especially if you want those from the Billboard charts and they are not yet available, or depending also on how picky you are. But absolutely free Motorola ringtones are surely out there and you just need some time to browse until you get exactly what you want.

In order to benefit from these ringtones, you need to make sure you know exactly the type of files your phone supports. If we are talking about Motorola, we can refer to early models, which have only monophonic or polyphonic ringtones, or we can talk about these recent models, that support MP3 as well. It counts, because in this way you will know from the start if your phone will sound like you want or the files will be unrecognized. Moreover, most of the mobile phones have that great thing, where you can group your callers and you can assign those ringtones. You can thus have a different ringtone for a specific group or a contact as well. You can put ringtones you like hearing to the persons that call you the most and you will know exactly who it is without looking at the phone. You can have general ringtones for your calls and something specific. It is a great idea and it will help you figure out if someone familiar is calling you or not. You can also crop the ringtones as well. If you have an Android Motorola smartphone, there are applications available in Android Market that allows you to crop the exact piece of the song you want to have as ringtone. You can do it yourself in case you have the song, but it is not the beginning that you like. Online you can choose to download even funny ringtones, funny effects, nature sounds, animals, cartoon characters and their famous singing and quotes and so on. As long as you have the time to browse through the available content on the internet, you can really find what you are looking for.

Users just like you post these types of items online and they make sure they are accessible to everyone. It is not something to pay for, because it is like a community of Motorola users. As long as you have a mobile phone, you can use the USB mass storage or the web browser you have to download or transfer content. Take advantage of your phone and of the possibilities offered, because you can really improve things with a little bit of interest; absolutely free Motorola ringtones are out there and if not, nothing can stop you from creating some of your own.

Motorola Razr is a collection of sleek and super slim flip phones that had a huge success, because everyone loved the variety of colors and the fact that phones were so slim and sleek. I know that even when I passed the streets, at least one person had this type of mobile phone. A blue Motorola Razr is not something unusual, because as mentioned earlier and as you can see from the pictures, Motorola decided to add plenty of colors to choose. This meant that you could combine your personality and favorite color with your device. It would be nice to see these days such a variety as well, but until then, let’s see exactly what blue Motorola Razr has to offer.

Thanks to the striking design and the addition of plentiful features, the phone is still an attraction and most remember of it with thrill. But because everything is so flat, so are the keys on the keypad and this are a thing that most users will have to deal with eventually. When you look at the phone from the front side, you might not notice such a big deal, but as you turn the phone, then the magic begins. It even feels light, but thanks to the fact it comes with a solid construction, you can stay relaxed as the phone is built to last. But even so, it does not mean that you have to take the phone and use it in rough conditions. The external display supports 4000 colors and shows the basic info such as battery life, time and date, signal strength and caller ID. The VGA lens sits above the display, but without flash or self-portrait mirror. As for external controls, there aren’t many, but you get the voice recorder button on the right side and the volume rocker and camera shutter key on the left. The buttons are indeed thin, but you should have no problems finding them, as they are tactile.

And even if the external display is not something out of the ordinary, the internal one is. It has 2.5” and it is gorgeous; supports 260.000 colors, it is vivid and crisp and it shows graphics and photos in great quality. Even in direct sunlight you can easily view everything easily. The navigation buttons below the display are slim and flush to the surface, taking some time to get used to, but thankfully, they are also well-spaced, so you should have no problems. So, we said that design attracts a lot, so let see if the features are on your liking as well. In the contact book you can add 1000 contacts and each can hold additional phone numbers. You can assign them in groups and add ringtones; you can choose between monophonic and polyphonic. Among other features, you get also vibrate mode, SMS and MMS, MP3 support, data book, voice dialing, alarm clock, AOL Instant Messaging and wireless Web browser.

And for taking some reasonable photos from time to time, you can use the VGA camera, but it is not useful when you need to take shots in dark environments. The camera itself comes with some settings and options, so you can customize your photos and make the best out of them. Motorola Razr will always impress and will always be a good start for mobile phones that want to be slim and sleek.

No matter the mobile phone you have, classic, rugged, flip, slider phone, it needs extra protection. You don’t want it to look bad, scratched and damaged after just a few uses and you don’t want it to fall into pieces when you accidentally drop it. Unfortunately, these things happen and you have to take all the possible measures to protect your phone and reduce the damages. Getting Motorola cell phone cases will not guarantee 100% that your phone remains intact no matter what, but at least you assure a new layer of protection, you make everything you can to enjoy your phone for as much as possible. This goes especially if you have one of the latest Motorola smartphones; as you just want the touch screen to remain crisp and untouched and benefit of it for a long period of time. And because phone accessories have become very important deals and recommended by everyone, you should know there are many companies out there that produce Motorola cell phone cases for all users, all needs and all tastes.

Just read to see what type of phones fit in the case, so you don’t spend your money on useless cases.

OtterBox is a respectful name in the industry of hard cases, solid, durable and somehow rugged. OtterBox Defender case is available for mostly all Motorola smartphones. These cases come at a higher price, but higher is the protection as well. They are made to resist to shock, providing a long life for your mobile phone. The clear membrane on the screen and the keypad let’s you navigate on the display, but also protects it from scratches and even smudges and fingerprints. You get access to all phone features, but especially as they are covered by silicone plugs, not even inside the ports dust will enter. Moreover, the cases provide belt clips, so they can be attached to your belt and always have your phone close. Design is aimed to business, but also casual look and it will complement your outfit no matter what you are wearing.

The impact-resistant cover protects the phone and the textured rubberized feeling provides a nice and solid grip. Again, we have the belt clip included and access to all ports, so you don’t need to remove the phone from its case in order to use it. Pouches are also very popular among users and they are designed for any phone model. Especially those made out of leather are very stylish and they offer overall protection, as you just place the phone inside and nothing will happen to it. The pricing is reasonable and sometimes you can encounter some reasonable numbers, even less than $10, but depends also on the phone model you have.
