The first super slim and classy Motorola RAZR was brought into the world in 2005. Moto was extremely proud of the RAZR line of models, as they performed beyond well in terms of connectivity, multimedia, and function. Motorola took their phones to another level by adding more cool features and improving overall capability. In spring 2007, Motorola released another first: the RIZR Z8. If you’re looking for a new mobile phone for your busy life, this one will be a perfect fit.
The RIZR Z8 proudly sports an ergonomically designed body. It’s not just a slide phone, but it’s a kick-slider, where the phone slides open but in a bent shape that follows the curve of your face. The earpiece is much closer to your ear, as well as your mouth towards the mouthpiece. The Z8 measures 109 x 50 x 15 millimeters and weighs only 112 grams. It has a 2.2 inch LCD screen with 16 million color display and 240 x 320 pixels resolution.
As a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), the Z8 shines. It has HSDPA or 3.5G packet data, so internet connections and download speeds are satisfyingly fast. Email and instant messages are supported by the Z8. The phone includes QuickOffice, so opening documents in Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and PDF formats are welcome. The internal memory is 90MB, which can be expanded up to 4GB with a micro SD card. Motorola made the card slot very convenient to access without having to remove the battery. The Z8 has Bluetooth and mini-USB connectivity options as well. Other organizing features are voice memo, voice command, calculator, to-do list, and calendar.
