Comparisons Featuring Motorola MC55

Short Review

  • The Motorola MC55 features a robust design with dimensions of 152 x 77 x 27 mm and a weight of 336 grams, making it relatively bulky.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, providing a basic visual experience with 65k colors.
  • Performance is driven by a 520 MHz Intel PXA270 CPU and 256MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
  • The 2 MP rear camera includes autofocus but lacks advanced features like optical image stabilization.
  • Battery life is supported by a 2400 mAh capacity, although charging capabilities are limited.
  • Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, the software experience may feel outdated compared to modern standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The absence of a headphone jack and stereo speakers limits audio options.
  • Overall, the MC55 is a functional device with basic features suited for specific professional applications.
  • Its design and software reflect its 2009 release, catering primarily to enterprise users.
