Motorola Rizr Z8


The reinvented sliding design that Motorola RIZR Z8 possesses is what it boasts for. This smart phone model, pronounced as “riser,” also goes by the much simpler name, MOTO Z8, has its sliding design feature a combination of aesthetic and great function, allowing the phone to curve on itself to conform to the user’s face when he/she talks on it. Definitely, the availability of the clamshell design of previous RAZR models are always in the run for comparison, but MOTO Z8 deservingly rise itself as a hipper, more stylish way to communicate. Before RIZR Z10 was released, Z9 has been Motorola’s flagship phone.

Owning a dimension of 109 x 50 x 15 mm and weighing 112 grams, the MOTO Z8 boasts its 2.2 inch, TFT-type 16 million-color QVGA display (240 x 320 pixels). It also includes a 2.0 mega-pixel camera, screensavers and wallpapers, although users can also download new ones. Just like other smart phones, it also features ring tones, both polyphonic and mp3 formats. It also includes a card slot for microSD although it already has a 77MB internal memory. Its battery life is impressive as well, with five hours (talk time) and 380 hours (standby time).

Its phonebook is practically unlimited, as well as its call records, so storing your friends’ contacts, definitely if you have lots of them, will never be an issue anymore.

And just like other recent phones, it features photo caller ID, ringer ID, ringer profiles and voice dialing. Other add-on features are alarm, calculator, calendar, to-do-list and voice recorder.Messaging capabilities of MOTO Z8 includes SMS (text messaging) MMS, and E-mail clients, as well as the predictive text entry feature and text messaging template. It also features 3.6Mbps HSDPA providing mobile broadband and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, AVRCP, DUN, HFP and SPP, and fax capability. The phone’s software is being run by the Symbian UIQ operating system and can be connected to the Internet via the WAP 2.0 web browser. As it was designed in the newest 3G GSM network, MOTO Z8 is very much commendable in all types of data and voice transmission.

As like other seemingly perfect phones, the MOTO Z8 wouldn’t pass the perfect remark. One of the greatest issues the it is facing is the lack of protective casing that shall cover the display of the buttons, making it prone to scratches that may damage the phone. The other big problem lies on its choice of backend operating system. Although the Symbian could be a promising choice, a question in stability has always been brought up and it could affect the speed and usability of the phone. Nonetheless, the MOTO Z8 is a beautiful catch, especially if you are looking for a phone that you think will give you the edge in the world of fashion and convenient living in the now-growing sophisticated communication world.
