Since phones are becoming as fast if not faster than home computers, why not make your cell phone your home computer? The Motorola Atrix 4G is the first step toward that reality. A cell phone would have to be powerful to handle such multiuse, but the Atrix is packed with enough high-tech features that it’s entirely possible. Some of the Atrix’s main features are detailed below.
- The Atrix uses a dual-core Tegra 2 processor, which is the first of its kind
- It runs using the Android 2.2 operating system
- The QHD technology of the display sustains 24-bit graphics and an amazingly fast refresh rate
- The touch screen is a sizable 4 inches
- With the QHD display, the resolution is 480 x 800
- The QHD technology also includes proximity sensors, light sensors and a gyroscope for handling
- The camera takes 5 megapixel photos and can shoot video in high definition
- Another camera, this one front-facing, is utilized for video chatting
- The phone is an FM radio and MP3 player and is Bluetooth-enabled
- The battery lasts for 9 hours is you’re talking, but it can last for 10 days if its not in use
- 1GB of RAM is included along with 16GB of internal memory
- A GPS and innovative fingerprint password protection come standard on the Atrix
Clearly the Atrix is compelling and jammed with unique characteristics, but the coolest aspect is one that was only hinted at previously. The Atrix comes with a webtop dock. This dock transforms the phone into either a laptop or desktop. The phone is easily attached and functions like a regular computer. The Atrix isn’t on the market yet, but it will most likely come with a hefty price tag.
