Short Review
- The Motorola QUENCH features a compact design with dimensions of 116.8 x 60 x 12.4 mm and a weight of 130g, available in black, white, licorice, and purple.
- Its 3.1-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 186 ppi.
- Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM7201A chipset, with a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 512MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
- The 5 MP rear camera includes autofocus but lacks optical image stabilization and video recording capabilities are limited to CIF at 25fps.
- The battery capacity is 1420 mAh, supporting standard usage without fast charging or wireless options.
- Running on Android 1.5, it can be upgraded to 2.1, offering basic functionality with limited app support.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC.
- The device includes stereo speakers and a headphone jack for audio needs.
- Overall, the Motorola QUENCH presents a basic smartphone experience with modest specifications suitable for casual use.
- Special features are minimal, reflecting its 2010 release.
