Short Review
- The Motorola Cliq 2 features a compact design with dimensions of 116 x 59.6 x 14.5 mm and a weight of 175g, making it portable but slightly thick.
- Its 3.7-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 265 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking in vibrancy.
- Performance is powered by a 1.0 GHz CPU and 1GB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking and demanding applications.
- The rear camera is a 5 MP unit with autofocus, capable of capturing decent photos, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1420 mAh battery provides limited longevity and does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is outdated and not upgradeable to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it lacks 5G and NFC support.
- The device includes stereo speakers and a headphone jack, enhancing audio capabilities.
- Overall, the Motorola Cliq 2 is a basic smartphone with essential features, but its limitations in performance and software may not meet the needs of modern users.
