Description

Motorola MOTOLUXE is a mid-range smartphone with a notification light that doubles as a place to attach a lanyard. The dedicated lanyard groove, as Motorola calls it, is located at the bottom left of the handset. That is also where the colored lighting for the devices notifications happens to be located. Aside from the added lanyard grove, the MOTOLUXE is an Android 2.3 device with a custom user interface called MotoSwitch. The hardware features a 4-inch, 480x854 display. Powering the smartphone behind the scenes is a single-core 800MHz processor and 512MB of RAM. Around the back the MOTOLUXE has an 8 megapixel camera with an LED flash. The front of the handset houses a VGA camera to aid in all of your video chatting needs. It also has a 1,400 mAh battery that Motorola claims will give the MOTOLUXE 6.5 hours of talk time.

This device is also known as Motorola XT615

Good one a year back....

Edited: Oct 02, 2013, 12:20 PM

Phone owned for more than a year

A year back it was a good phone, but right now with the constant updating apps it has been hard to use it since it has not that much user memory available (the phone has something like 350MB for user data). It could be a good android back up phone, the kind of phone you use whenever yours is going through a repair or you lost it and will buy another soon.

What I like

Good design and resistant

What I don't like

Not very good battery life
Some built in apps are not that good like the Music Player or camera app (you can download apps for this but if you consider the low ROM capacity...))
