The Motorola Backflip Utilises A Range Of Impressive Features

The Motorola Backflip was released in March 2010

. Its specification list and unique styling are sure to make this handset a winner for the manufacturer. With key features including a full QWERTY keyboard and touch screen technology, MP3 ringtones and 5 MP camera, it is certainly a versatile handset.

The 5 mega pixel camera operates at a pixel resolution of 2560x1920 pixels. This offers users a means of taking high quality snapshots. The inclusion of autofocus and LED flash ensure that the task of taking quality photos is never a chore. An alternative method of image capture is via the cameras ability to shoot video in CIF at a rate of 30 frames per second.

256 MB RAM and 512 MB ROM provide the Motorola Backflip with its internal storage and memory. A micro SD slot is included with a pre-installed 2 GB memory card for storing data such as music tracks. Some users will prefer to carry their entire digital music collection on their phone, and this can be accomplished by installing a larger memory card (up to 32 GB) in the slot. The internal phonebook can store a practically unlimited number of entries. It also includes the popular photocall feature, whereby a photo is assigned to a contact and this is then displayed whenever that person is in contact.

The handset measures 108x53x15.3mm and weighs 133 grams. Its design is certainly unique, with an appearance which initially resembles that of the Apple iPhone. However on closer inspection, you will notice a full QWERTY keyboard which flips out from behind the screen.

In order to stay connected to cellular networks and the internet, the Motorola Backflip relies on a number of connectivity options. Connection to cellular networks is primarily via EDGE and GPRS (both class 12). In areas covered by the 3G network, HSDPA provides a connection at speeds of up to 7.2 megabytes per second. A faster internet connection is available wherever there is a signal from a wireless internet router, thanks to Wi-Fi connectivity. Bluetooth and USB finish of the list of connectivity features.

The Motorola Backflip utilises several alert types to alert users to incoming calls and text messages. These include vibration and ringing with the option to utilise MP3 and WAV music files as ringtones. If users wish to talk hands free, this can be achieved by utilising either the built in speakerphone system (with stereo speakers) or the 3.5mm audio jack with a compatible handsfree headset.

The 3.1 inch TFT capacitive touchscreen offers clear, vibrant display of on screen content thanks to the ability to display up to 256,000 colours at a pixel setup of 320x480. The screen also features an accelerometer for auto-rotate of the on screen image.

An impressive list of additional features adds to the everyday functionality of the Backflip. These include social networking integration and a versatile media player. The Motorola Backflip is sure to appeal to those looking for something different, and the unique design of the handset offers exactly that.
