Motorola Tundra Review


I have the bad habit of not remembering the name of different cell phone models that is came across in this lifetime, probably because there are so many of them. But the Motorola Tundra is not something that you forget. I thought about writing this Motorola Tundra review because there are people looking for a decent and mid-range cell phone that does not cost a lot of money, but does not come with the high end technology features either



This cell phone offers supports for both 2G (GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900) as well as 3G networks (HSDPA 850 / 1900). This cell phone has been available on the market ever since January 2009 and even if that was the period when smart phone started appearing, the Motorola Tundra was still a great success because of its good features and decent battery life. The first thing that I must mention in this Motorola Tundra review is that this cell phone measures 98 x 53.8 x 24 mm in dimensions and 107 grams in weight. It is not exactly my idea of a slim cell phone and the antenna makes it quite uncomfortable to squeeze this mobile phone into a tight pair of jeans.



Since the Motorola Tundra is a flip cell phone, it comes with both and internal and an external display. The external display measures 1.05 inches in diagonal and it has a resolution of 96 x 80 pixels. When you open the phone, you will notice a 2.2 inch display that offers support for 256K colors and which has a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. The memory of the phonebook will let your store 1000 contact entries and the memory of the phone is capable of displaying the last 20 dialed, received and missed calls.

The internal memory of the Motorola Tundra is 100 MB but thanks to the included microSD card slot, you can extend the memory to a maximum 4 GB. When you start nosing around the menu, you will notice that the Tundra is missing a lot of features which are common on a modern day cell phone. It does not have integrated wireless and there is no secondary camera. You do have a primary camera that has a 2 MP sensor and it is capable of taking photos at a maximum resolution of 1600 x 1200 pixel, with the ability to record videos as well..



There is also an operating system on the Motorola Tundra which is a Java based MOTOMAGX. The phone also has GPS with a-GPS support. If you ever want to use this cell phone to listen to music, there is an MP3 player included and there is also an MP3 player for watching videos and other clips. The Motorola Tundra comes with a standard Li-Ion 1130 mAh battery which is capable of keeping this cell phone on for about 5 hours and 15 minutes of talk time and about 480 hours in standby mode. It may not be the best battery performance, but this is a decent score for a mainstream cell phone.
