Comparisons Featuring Motorola Karma QA1
Short Review
- The Motorola Karma QA1 features a compact design with dimensions of 88 x 64 x 17.9 mm and a weight of 141 grams, making it portable and easy to handle.
- Its 2.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 160 ppi.
- Performance is limited with 100MB of internal storage and 100GB of RAM, which is unusual for a phone of its time, suggesting a focus on basic functionality.
- The rear camera is 2 MP, capable of recording video at 15fps, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1170 mAh battery supports basic usage but does not offer fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- The device runs on an unspecified operating system, lacking advanced software features.
- Connectivity options include Bluetooth 2.0 but no WiFi, 5G, or NFC support, limiting internet access.
- The absence of stereo speakers is notable, though it does include a headphone jack for audio output.
- Overall, the Karma QA1 is a straightforward device with basic features and a focus on simplicity.
- Its design and build quality reflect the era of its release in 2009.
