Posted by Symbianizer | Filed under Java, Motorola

The Motorola SLVR line has long been a favorite with some consumers. With a sleek design and shimmering black keypad, the MOTOSLVR L9 is sure to win over fans of the series.

Motorola have continued their tradition of the RAZR-like designed phones and the L-series has a new member, the SLVR L9. This phone is a direct successor of the L7 model and they do have a lot in common. In fact, they have almost no difference.

This handset is mainly targeted at the mid-range personal use. It doesn’t have some business enhancements or any media gadgets to offer, so its main purpose is to serve telephony to the users. With a new keypad, added EDGE supportand FM radio and a more powerful camera, L9 is headed to replace the older SLVR model and probably make some new friends on the way.

The MOTOSLVR L9 does not support HSDPA high-speed data, with GPRS/EDGE having to suffice. The on board 2.0 megapixel camera utilizes the 20MB internal memory and microSD memory expansion for storage. Music is taken care of with a player compatible with MP3, AAC, e-AAC, and e-AAC+ music and an FM radio, with an airplane mode to enable you to listen to your tunes in places where phone use is prohibited. Bluetooth 2.0 with support for stereo headphones using A2DP is included, with a miniUSB port available for wired data transfer. Included in the box is a battery capable of up to 6.6 hours of talk time or 14.5 days standby.
