Motorola is not new to mobile manufacturing but they are pretty new to the Indian and Asian market who loves using small,cute and colorful mobiles.While they dominate the Europian market they are pretty new to us....They are known for the stability and usability and not for looks....simply call it as a professional mobile manufacturer....To break this jinx and to capture a center stage in Asia they have created a new line-up for mobiles called the Moto.As the name suggests each and every mobile talks it own language which seperates one from the other very uniquely!This review is about the TranceMoto the motorola c300.
This mobile is a rich combination of features and stability!The most attractive inovation is the three display backlits (white, yellow and blue) and the wonderful blue keypad backlit.The random fun lights option enables all the three color backlits to randomly flash according to the tunes....cool isnt it?the menus are very clean and direct and with two different options u can change the way the menu looks(this is something new)the menus are a bit sluggish thou' but very much usable.It has a built in memory for storing names and numbers and other information which we cant find in any mobile phone in its class.with the presence of voice dialing the phone is complete.The other basic features such as vibration mode, profiles, calender(not there in nokia?), stopwatch, alarm, predictive text input are very well built.The battery is stable and has a stanby of 2.5 days which is very good and the talk time is about 3 hours at FR which is pretty good!!Weighs just 82 grams making other phones bulky and looking like a rock!
Overall its a pretty good phone at this rate!(INR 4,700)if your bugged up for an allternate to Nokia try this one infact I love this phone more than any phone in this range!Atleast u will have fun and stability eventhou' ur not talkin too much!!Beware may cause envy to other user!!
