Inspired by the PEBL, one of very few great Motorola handsets ever, the Moto U9 could be Motorola's next hit.
Motorola is showing off the stylish side of music, with the introduction of the Moto U9. The U9 promises to make music a multi-sensory experience and lets consumers rock out and look good, with an elegant form factor, Stereo Bluetooth, CrystalTalk technology, external touch sensitive music controls and floating, animated screensavers that appear on the external display.
"MOTO U9 combines the surprising with the familiar, the latest in premium design and inventive controls with the next popular spin on Motorola's classic clamshell design to deliver the most stylish and dynamic mobile music experience," said Rob Shaddock, senior vice president of Feature and Mass Market Phones, Mobile Devices, Motorola. "MOTO U9 embodies the stylish side of Motorola’s music-enabled devices, further building on our strong portfolio of products for a diverse global audience."
Seamless, small and light weight, the curvaceous U9 has been designed to fit perfectly in the pocket or hand. Its metallic gloss finish comes to life with animated screen savers that appear to “float” across the borderless external display. The 1.45” external OLED display with a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels is not just for show, however, as touch sensitive, digital keys let users control their music player from the outside. In addition, the U9 offers a 262K 2” QVGA internal display.
Motorola has also created an ecosystem of additional products, accessories and services that make it easy to access download and enjoy a wide array of digital music. Through an exclusive arrangement with recording artist Fergie, in select markets Motorola will provide exclusive content on the phone, promotional activities, and TV and print campaigns.
"Fergie is a GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum superstar artist as well as a woman on the cutting edge of modern style. She is the perfect icon to help us communicate to consumers that style and music are integral to people as a way to express themselves – and that MOTO U9 embodies those qualities," said Joni Christensen, director of Global Music Marketing, Mobile Devices, Motorola. More information about these promotions will be available soon.
The Motorola Moto U9 sports a 2-megapixel camera with 8x digital zoom, multi-shot feature, as well as video capture and playback. Furthermore, the phone offers an MP3 player which synchronizes with Windows Media Player 11. The U9 also incorporates a USB 2.0 slot and a memory slot for up to 4GB microSD cards.
Weighing 3.1 ounces and measuring 3.5 by 1.9 by 0.6 inches, the sleek Quadband GSM handset will be available in import shops for the holiday season. The shipping date is set to Q4 2007 for Europe, Latin America and Asia. Pricing details has yet to be announced.
