Motorola QUENCH review
Network and connections
A decidedly complete Smartphone, offered by Motorola to satisfy even the most demanding users. Starting with the technical descriptions, we can say that the network receiver is a GSM Quadband. It guarantees optimal coverage, even though it lacks UMTS support. However, for browsing the Internet, the HSDPA modem is really effective, reaching high speeds. The HTML browser will therefore be able to easily open any page. Also present is the Wi-Fi antenna, to take advantage of distributed networks. The convenient Bluetooth is not missing, nor is the USB data cable.
Design and features
The exterior look of the Quench is simple but carefully crafted. Soft, rounded lines on the edges provide excellent comfort in the grip. The rubberized rear surface conveys security and ease of handling. The front is almost entirely occupied by the screen, a 3.1-inch TFT, capable of displaying up to 65,000 colors. It is equipped with Capacitive Touch Screen technology, for optimal and quick management of any content. The function keys help in using the device. The dimensions are compact, with a thickness of 12.4 mm and a weight of 130 grams.
Main features
The Motorola Quench's platform is Google's Android OS. Its readiness for multimedia web content is therefore decidedly excellent. You will in fact be able to enjoy Instant Messaging, as well as YouTube, Google Search and much more. The Motoblur UI with Live Widget interface is customizable to satisfy every personal convenience. The accelerometer is useful for automatically adapting images to the screen's position. Simplified writing, multimedia messages, E-mail and Voice Memo are just some of the basic features. As for the phone aspect, there's no lack of hands-free function, voice recorder, and multiconference support.
Entertainment and multimedia
Absolutely complete in this aspect as well, the Quench integrates a camera with as much as 5 megapixels. It will be capable of delivering high quality images in any condition, also thanks to the dedicated functions. You can also record videos, to save on the available space. For multimedia playback there's the dedicated audio and video player, supporting various formats. Also present is the AM/FM radio antenna. The GPS satellite module turns out to be really handy during trips, to always have the correct direction toward your destination. The declared battery life is also very good, lasting up to 450 hours in Stand-by.
