Comparisons Featuring Motorola Motoluxe XT389

Short Review

  • The Motorola Motoluxe XT389 features a compact design with dimensions of 116 x 63.5 x 11 mm and a lightweight build at 98 grams.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT display has a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness for detailed visuals.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6573 chipset with an 800 MHz Cortex-A9 CPU and 512MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking and demanding applications.
  • The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of recording video at 480p and lacks optical image stabilization, while the front camera is absent.
  • Battery specifications are not provided, but the device does not support fast charging or wireless charging.
  • Running on Android 2.3.6 (Gingerbread), the software experience is outdated and may limit app compatibility.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The phone includes a standard headphone jack, catering to users who prefer wired audio.
  • Available in white and black, the Motoluxe XT389 offers a basic feature set without any standout special features.
  • Overall, it serves as a simple device for essential communication needs.
