Comparisons Featuring Motorola MILESTONE 2

Short Review

  • The Motorola MILESTONE 2 features a compact design with dimensions of 116.3 x 60.5 x 13.7 mm and a weight of 169 grams, making it portable.
  • Its 3.7-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 265 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by a 1.0 GHz Cortex-A8 CPU and TI OMAP 3630 chipset, supported by 512MB of RAM, which provides adequate functionality for basic tasks.
  • The rear camera has a 5 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of recording video at 720p at 30fps, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • The battery capacity is 1400 mAh, which supports standard daily usage without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Android 2.2 (Froyo) with an upgrade option to 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is relatively dated.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it lacks 5G and NFC support.
  • The device does not feature stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack for audio output.
  • Overall, the MILESTONE 2 combines a solid build with basic performance and camera capabilities for its time.
  • Special features are limited, reflecting its 2010 release.
