By far the biggest bone of contention for most Android handset owners is the lack of updates or the lack of information regarding updates. Many manufacturers have a page that details which devices will be receiving updates with a rough approximation of when they will arrive. Motorola is no …
Many of us have been waiting on major leaps forward from Motorola ever since Google acquired Motorola Mobility, but thus far there’s been very little to excite. Well, that looks like it’s going to change soon with the introduction of Test Drive. According to the official Motorola blog, …
So, we took a look at the Motorola RAZR i a couple of weeks ago but I wanted to take another look. First impressions, I have to say, are rather good. I instantly thought the battery wasn’t in the phone when I took it out of the box. …
We took a look at the Motorola RAZR i a few weeks back but I was quite intrigued by it so tomorrow we’ll have a second review. Until then, here’s an example filmed on the new handset. The camera is an 8 megapixel, 3264 x 2448 unit which …

In December last year we took a look at the Ericsson A2628 from Lekki. The phone itself was 11 years old but it had a new lease of life thanks to a bright paint job. No social networks. No pictures messages. No camera. No internet. The Lekki handsets …
Here at Coolsmartphone each of the writers goes through an inordinate amount of handsets and accessories that go with them. We each have our own favourite suppliers that we find to be reliable and prompt. We therefore thought that we would bring a profile of the ones that …
Today is the day of the RAZR i launch so what better way to celebrate than with a review so you can make an informed decision. Ever since the press conference I have swapped from my Lumia 800 to the RAZRi to see just how far Motorola have …

Can you remember last week before all of the fuss surrounding a certain maps app, where we attended an event in London for the unveiling of the new phone from Motorola. The Motorola RAZR i is a joint venture from Intel and Motorola and features an Intel CPU. …
A few days ago Motorola announced the RAZR i, not long after that we benchmarked it to see how the Medfield CPU held up against some of the big players, and earlier today we announced the pricing for UK carriers. This is what I thought after a little …
Ealier on in the week (details here) we got to see the new UK phone from Motorola, the RAZR i. We got to see lots of information about it, the specs, some pictures and then some videos as well. On the day there wasn’t really any mention of …

We’ve seen the live blog and the specs for the RAZRi and now we’ve got some promo videos. They’re basically the RAZR M videos with a new name but here you go anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyWeVtXPCII http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EC6X9azWHuw
We have been live blogging the event this morning and Motorola have just posted up the official press release and specs for the device. It is basically the RAZR M with Intel insides. But it is jolly nice looking, shame they couldn’t get Jelly Bean on it. Strange …

Motorola have a clear cut divide between their high end devices (Razr, Proton, Razr Maxx, Razr HD, Razr M) and their current budget devices (Motoluxe and this the Motosmart). When Motorola first introduced the Motoluxe they were full of the fact it was a fashionable well designed piece …
The Apple lawyers haven’t been distracted by the launch of the iPhone 5, although I’m sure they all pre-ordered themselves one after getting their latest court victory. This time it’s Google’s very own newly acquired Motorola Mobility (still sounds like one of those old peoples’ shopping buggies) devices …
We’ve looked at the spec and the pictures, now it’s time for some promotional videos. First up the RAZR HD which they are calling the “all day phone” with either a 2500mAh or 3300mAh batteries I can understand this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2zDApeDXJc Next we have the RAZR M which is …

So the dust is beginning to settle after the so-called tech court case of the decade. Apple has come out the victor and Samsung supposedly have been crushed – or at least their lawyers have. So what’s next? For Apple it will be business as usual, there will …
Yesterday we got our hands on the new budget phone from Motorola the Motosmart. It’s bascially a smaller and slightly lower Motoluxe. Normally the smaller versions of devices are abysmal, like the Xperia X8 or some of the smaller Galaxy devices. I’m hoping the Motosmart doesn’t follow the …
So after the chat about old phones in the most recent podcast it got us all talking (behind the scenes) about all the phones we have had through the years. So, inspired by that, a few of us have put together our phone history! So, here we go… Motorola M3188 …
