Motorola EX128 Review

[arnuld 12]

I have used Motorola EX128 for around 20 days now. Bought it for 6000/- from Secunderabad Chinese market (Hyderabad). Quite unfortunately my brother liked it very much and took it away form me and handed me his brand new Samsung Metro Power C3200 Monte Bar phone. Here is what I have now after 20 days experience:

1. User-Interface: Interface competes with what you see these days in Samsung and NOKIA phones. No doubts about it. It is touch-screen based handset and interface is crystal clear. Phone's shape is nice, fits exactly into hands, neither small nor large size fitting, very comfortable in holding it for long time calls. The back side is made of some material which resists slipping from any surface. Handset is very solid and sturdy, It fell for 3 times by now and nothing happened to it.
   
2. Dual-SIM: You can switch from one SIM to another or keep both in use all the time. You do not need to turn it off for that. Did not get the opprtunity to try what happens when I am talking on one SIM and someone else cals on 2nd.
   
3. Audio Quality: Speaker has quite a volume and sound was quite clear whenever I talked, no exceptions. Only problem is when you connect headset. It has 3.5mm jack which may make you feel like its good, well its not. Clarity of sound goes down the drain as soon as you put on the headset. Even the mp3 songs play with worst quality I have ever experienced. Its extremely terrible. Never ever put headset for talking to someone on this phone. Don't have a bluetooth headset so no idea if its same in Bluetooth headset (I expect worse).
   
4. Battery: Battery is OK kind. Neither gives bad backup nor much good one. If you use both SIMs and talk for around 40-60 min within next 12-15 hours of charging it will drain out to zero. Two SIMs will kill the battery, there is no point in using two SIMs here in this phone or carry ur charger like you carry your hanky all the time
   
5. Camera: Camera is 3 MP, check out the attached pic for quality.

Picture quality is quite sad (assuming you've used optimal settings). Battery back up seems really AWFUL. Didn't expect different considering the low capacity battery and dual SIM. However, its also network dependent - hope you didn't use 2 RGSM SIMs. That would spell doom for any phone's battery, unless its using a car battery or something. 

Considering your review, it sure does not seem to be even worth considering. Flop show by Moto. I expected better from Moto.
