Comparisons Featuring Motorola Milestone XT883

Short Review

  • The Motorola Milestone XT883 features a compact design with dimensions of 123.3 x 64.1 x 12.9 mm and a weight of 184g, making it portable yet sturdy.
  • Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 275 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 processor paired with 16GB of storage and 512MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.

  • Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is dated, lacking modern features and updates.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
