Not many people will see the genius behind the design of the Motorola Backflip, but once you see it in action, it is hard to deny that Motorola pulled an engineering marvel with a very simple change in the way we open a flip phone.
Regardless of whether this device can be called a clamshell phone or not, this Android smart phone is beautiful, stylish, functional and or course, incredibly entertaining. Pop it open on your desk and it will serve as your digital organizer; complete with the large digital clock face. If you want something more engaging, turn on the media player and access your video files. Thanks to its stand-alone feature (yes bad pun), it makes for an excellent hands free view screen.
Backflip Brings the Android
The Android operating system is pretty much all the rage these days. Thanks to the future proof design of the operating system and its Linux based development, the platform is easily accessible to many developers around the world. This feature gives the Google plenty of potential and range in terms of additional functionality with downloadable applications. Apps for almost all phone functions can be made, as long as the hardware is present, an app for it can be developed.
Another added function of the Android is the customizability features which allow users to changes almost any setting in the phone from the visual look to its function settings. The OS also support plenty of Google mobile applications such as Gmail, Google Talk, Google Maps, Picasa, YouTube and others.
The MOTOBLUR Service
