The Feature Packed Motorola Milestone XT720

The Motorola Milestone XT720 is actually the newer version of the modified Motorola Milestone,which whilst an impressive feature-packed smartphone,wasn’t as well-received as hoped because of the slide out keyboard. Relaunched as the same feature-packed smartphone,but this time with more market-friendly touchscreen,and a few millimeters thinner,can the Milestone XT720 do better second time around?

The Motorola Milestone XT720 designers were obviously keen to improve on the old Milestone smartphone,without all the effort of a complete redesign. Removing the slide out keyboard allowed them to shed a few grams and millimeters,and just to give the new version it’s own identity,they also made a couple of other slight changes –so it looks and feels more like a new model. The result is a quality mobile phone,as you would expect from Motorola,although it might not be everyone’s idea of good looking.

The rather unique look to the Motorola Milestone XT720 is designed it seems,to highlight its camera credentials,and well it might blow its own trumpet –the new Milestone comes with an incredible 8 megapixel camera. But it’s not just the fact that this is larger than any of the other Android smartphones on the market that’s impressive. You also get face detection,image stabilization and multi-shot features,not to mention hi definition video capture.

The Motorola Milestone XT720 runs the 2.1 version of the Android operating system,which helps make the most of the phones features,as well as giving you access to the Android market and as many apps as you could want. Other features are more than up to standard with the other phones in the market,and the Motorola Milestone XT720 comes equipped with 3G,Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity,as well as GPS and an FM radio. If there is one thing that lets the new Motorola down,it’s the fact that all these features place a big demand on the smartphone’s technology,and while it copes okay,a faster processor would have been a noticeable improvement.

The feature that dominates the Motorola Milestone XT720 is the excellent 8 megapixel camera and its associated features. Everything else is as you would expect for a smartphone from one of the leading manufacturers,so all in all the revamped Milestone is a serious contender in the market. It might not have the processing power to challenge the heavy weights like Apple,Google and HTC,but Motorola fans will be more than happy to overlook this tiny misgiving in favor of a combined smartphone package that is one of the best on the market.
