 Motorola V60 is announced in 2001
Design
Motorola's V60 is a typical clamshell design. Measures 87 x 45 x 24 mm in size and weighing 109 grams, it is not light but feels very slender despite its size.A secound 1 x 16 chars, 2 display dominates the front cover, and although not the clearest external display we've seen it is still quite functional.The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 96 x 64 pixel is not very high but is normal for small phone like this.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Motorola handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The V60 lies well in ones hand.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Motorola handsets.The plastic keypad has very limited key travel and jiggles independently of the phone, with the shrunken center keys for no apparent reason, make the phone harder to dial than necessary.And last,but not least, a four-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the V60 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Email client, voice commands, a voice recorder, FAX/Modem, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book..
Performance
Audio quality on the V60 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 500 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3 hours talk time or 80 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 75 minutes.
Availability
The Motorola V60 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Motorola V60 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Motorola design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
