Arun 795 Report post Posted June 20, 2005 Monday, 20 June , 2005, 08:00 Recently in Singapore: Motorola is in the process of rolling out mass-market appeal handsets to capture new markets and enhance its share in the existing ones. The company is targeting to tap the potential in India, Africa, West Asia, South East Asia and China. `Until recently, South East Asia was a standalone market, but now we see that all these markets exhibit close functionality and market tendency. There is high growth market potential in this region. Our focused strategy is to regain our position in China, where the market is not just big, but complex as well,' David Taylor, Director (Strategy and Operations), Mobile Device said. In India, Motorola is close to clinching a deal with Reliance. `Not many understand the CDMA (code division multiple access) technology. We are in talks with Reliance Infocomm for introducing Motorola's CDMA handsets in India. This should be through within a month or two,' he said. The company is also gearing up to launch the Motorola V 280 and V 360 handsets in India shortly. `As consumer segmentation matures, we start looking at other consumer segments,' he said. . "It helps capture still shots via an integrated VGA camera, moving images with the video capture and playback feature, an integrated MP3 player and optional TransFlash memory card to store and play song files and PC charging, thereby maximising personal flexibility. The Bluetooth wireless connectivity enhances mobility.' Motorola V 280 model measures a mere 10.9 mm in thickness but has a large user memory space of up to 10 MB for media creation, download, sharing and storage. Before introducing these models in India market, Motorola showcased two other - C 117 and C 157 - models as well at the CommunicAsia 2005 event in Singapore. `Our vision is to deliver seamless mobility with new solutions,' Taylor said Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

basant_jp 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2005 Motorola is the world's first telecommunication company, but it lagged behind as it followed the analog protocol for long, and that was the time when Nokia chipped in with digitial protocol. It was actually the Motorola's old CMD, who believed that analog is superior to digital and will always remain so. This made the company a loser to Nokia. Anyway, now wiht the new CMD and new strategies in place, Motorola is back in action. MotoRazaV3, ROKR, PEBL are the example of this action. In US, nokia could never beat Motorola, even when things were not going on well with motorola. As for the quality, moto really rocks; but only when the product is meant for developed nations (read 'expensive handsets'). There has been a reason for that - Nokia's production unit in Finland makes them able to produce handsets at cheaper rates as the labour is not so high in Finlad (compared to US). Motorola's production center in United States produces the handsets with same features at a higher price tag, reason being the high labour costs. The handsets made for the US or EU markets are really great, compared to the ones available in South Asian markets. Anyway, if you have ever come across a high end handset of motorola, I am sure you would be highly satisfied with it, be it the battery life or the performance. I am great fan of their Linux based smartphones. Apart from the cheap handsets like C131 or such GSM counterparts largely available in South Asian markets, Motorola's handsets are really great performers. Only thing, they never took Indian market very seriously. With the new pacts with Indian operators, Motorola has shown interest in Indian market, and I am sure their new handsets (whether GSM or CDMA) would not perform below expectations. Cheers!
