Motorola has went official with its first Android device: Cliq. Motorola has a custom UI called the MotoBlur running on the Android OS, which sure gives the HTC’s Sense UI a run for its money. T-Mobile would launch the Moto Android in US as Cliq and globally it shall be branded as the ‘Dext’ featuring a 3G, full QWERTY keyboard, 3.1″ touchscreen, 5MP camera, GPS, WiFi and a 3.5mm headphone jack. While Palm has learnt its lesson and integrated a minimum of 8GB internal memory, I wonder what stops Motorola from doing the same. Cliq has 512mb of internal storage and supports MicroSD memory of upto 32GB.
Motorola has identified the growing momentum of social media and its synergy with smartphone users. The MotoBlur lets you manage your online presence at one place and you can update your statues on all your favorite social networks all at once. Twitter, Facebook, Picasa, Gmail, Myspace etc all find their place in the UI. Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha stressed the importance of a mobile OS that supports multithreaded multitasking, which sure is an area where the Android OS betters the iPhone.
Cliq / Dext is one of the many Android handsets that are hitting the stores before year end and this surely isn’t something that would revolutionize the smartphone market. But we hope this to be the beginning of a revival for Motorola.
