Motorola MPx220 By Jørgen Sundgot, Tuesday 21 December 2004
Motorola's newest addition to its anemic smartphone portfolio brings Bluetooth, improved screens and better battery life to the mix: Jørgen Sundgot investigates the MPx220.
It's been almost a year since Motorola's first Windows Mobile smartphone, the MPx200, came to market. Anticipation for the MPx220 has been great, given its improved specifications and use of Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition for Smartphone, which has a leg or three up on Smartphone 2002 which powered the MPx200. Despite its improvements, however, the MPx220 retains some of the flaws of its predecessor - so do the pros outweigh the cons?
“found volume levels to be too low for comfortable use under mildly noisy conditions. Sadly, the same applies to the earpiece and speaker mode. “
“Conclusion Having corrected several mistakes made by its predecessor, the MPx220 now delivers better battery life, a more responsive user experience, improved connectivity support and suitable amounts of memory. Unfortunately, audio is barely adequate”
"History is littered with brilliant products that never saw the commercial light of day simply because there was no inherent customer demand"
If you were the technical director of motorola and read this harsh review would you not at least have some interest in a product that promised to resolve a high end product design flaw?
“Speech Level Enhancement (SLE): The SLE automatically adjusts the received speech signal level based on the ambient noise "sensed" by the same microphone used for speech transmission. The SLE operates in a similar concept to car "climate control". It increases the speech level in relation to the ambient noise.”
