Motorola's MOTORIZR Z8 brings mobile broadband to your fingertips

Askwiki Exclusive
Reinventing the slider phone, the MOTORIZR Z8 brings multimedia, speed, pleasure and mobile broadband¹ to your fingertips. Providing you with the ultimate in entertainment, the MOTORIZR Z8 allows you to watch crystal clear video at 30 frames per second through a large QVGA 16m TFT display.

The device also supports optional expandable memory up to 4GB using microSD, which is enough space for full length movies or hours of music. The Motorola Z8 MOTORIZR runs the Symbian UIQ 9.1 operating system. The Z8 has an impressive feature list, including a 2.0 megapixel camera, a 2.2 inch QVGA screen supporting up to 16 million colours, and support for HSDPA, the mobile broadband service that offers download speeds of up to 3.6mbps. The design of the Z8 is unique among current handsets, when the slide is fully extended the Z8 curves to fit the contours of your face. Inevitably comparisons are drawn to the Nokia ‘banana’ phone of years gone by. Video playback is at 30 fps offering a very smooth and enjoyable viewing experience.

In addition to the video playback options, Motorola have also enhanced the media capabilities on the handset by including the Sky By Mobile service on the phone. This allows SKY subscribers to log into their account from the phone, view the full SKY program guide, access news and sports stories, and you can even set your SKY+ box to record programs whilst you are out and about. And if that is not enough, you can stream SKY channels to the handset over 3G.
