Motorola 218
July 5, 2007
The Motorola W218 was announced earlier this week, and is surely set to be an entry level for one of the service providers.
As you can see from the picture, the model is closely related to the Motorola Sliver L6. The model doesn’t have ton of features, but for many people a VGA camera and an FM radio are enough to keep them entertained. People email us all the time asking for simple, easy to use phones. This one will be perfect for that demographic.
It doesn’t appear that the W218 will have Bluetooth, and there’s no way it will have 3G. This model was built to be inexpensive. We will keep you updated as the complete feature set is released. Watch the Motorola W218 page for updates.
Motorola W380
July 5, 2007
The Motorola W380 was presented to the public earlier this week. Does anyone else get the feeling that this is a picture of the Krzr K1m? I have the white Moto Krazr, and it looks absolutely identical to this model. Although the feature set is diluted, the model looks amazing which means it will sell well.
The W380 has a VGA camera and offers an FM radio for easy listening. As stated earlier, this model doesn’t have an advanced feature set and will probably cost about $20 with a contract when it’s released.
Motorola has done well to change their entry level models to striking, sleek forms. They already own the midrange and would do well to break the entry level market.
When the Moto W380 is released, we will let you know. Watch for features and specs in the near future.
