Comparisons Featuring Motorola A1000

Short Review

  • The Motorola A1000 features a compact design with dimensions of 116 x 57.5 x 20 mm and a weight of 160g, making it portable yet sturdy.
  • Its 2.9-inch TFT resistive touchscreen displays 65K colors at a resolution of 208 x 320 pixels, providing decent clarity for its time.
  • Performance is driven by a TI OMAP 1510 chipset with a 168 MHz ARM925T CPU, supported by 24MB of storage and 24GB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The camera offers a 1.3 MP rear sensor without optical image stabilization or video recording, and there is no front-facing camera.
  • The 1600mAh battery provides basic longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Symbian 7.0 with a UIQ v2.1 interface, the software experience may feel dated compared to modern standards.
  • Connectivity options are limited, featuring Bluetooth 1.1 but no WiFi or NFC support.
  • The device includes stereo speakers but omits a headphone jack.
  • Overall, the A1000 is a functional device with basic features suited for its era.
  • Its design and build quality reflect Motorola's focus on durability and user-friendly functionality.
