Short Review
- The Motorola Electrify 2 XT881 features a compact design with dimensions of 128.5 x 65.8 x 8.4 mm and a weight of 130g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
- Its 4.3-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 256 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
- Powered by a dual-core 1.2 GHz TI OMAP 4430 chipset and 1GB of RAM, performance is adequate for everyday use, though it may struggle with more demanding applications.
- The 8 MP rear camera captures decent images and can record video at 1080p@30fps, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1780mAh battery provides limited longevity and does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software experience is outdated compared to modern standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device includes a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the Motorola Electrify 2 XT881 is a basic smartphone with essential features but limited capabilities.
- Its design and build quality are satisfactory for its time, but it may not meet the needs of users seeking advanced functionality.
