The Motorola Milestone XT720 is actually the newer version of the modified Motorola Milestone, which whilst an impressive feature-packed smartphone, wasn't as well-received as hoped because of the slide out keyboard. Relaunched as the same feature-packed smartphone, but this time with more market-friendly touchscreen, and a few millimeters thinner, can the Milestone XT720 do better second time around?
When Motorola decide to revamp the original Milestone, losing the slide out keyboard didn't just give them the chance to make the new Milestone XT720 slimmer and lighter, but also add in some new design tweaks as well. The new phone has a rather unique look therefore, a bit of a mix of the old and the new Milestone; but it has a quality look and feel to it, even if it isn't going to win prizes for being the best looking smartphone on the market.
The rather unique look to the Motorola Milestone XT720 is designed it seems, to highlight its camera credentials, and well it might blow its own trumpet - the new Milestone comes with an incredible 8 megapixel camera. But it's not just the fact that this is larger than any of the other Android smartphones on the market that's impressive. You also get face detection, image stabilization and multi-shot features, not to mention hi definition video capture.
Using the increasingly popular Android operating system, the new Motorola Milestone XT720 gets the 2.1 version which works well with the various other features, and of course gives you access to thousand of apps via the Android Market. Other features are more than up to standard with the other phones in the market, and the Motorola Milestone XT720 comes equipped with 3G, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, as well as GPS and an FM radio. If there is one thing that lets the new Motorola down, it's the fact that all these features place a big demand on the smartphone's technology, and while it copes okay, a faster processor would have been a noticeable improvement.
While the Motorola Milestone XT720 might find it hard to gain many converts from the likes of Apple, HTC and Google, it's amazing 8 megapixel camera and a host of other features that give it respectable smartphone credentials, will win a lot of fans. It almost seems unfair to look at it as a revamped version of the original Milestone as the improvements have been considerable, and just what smartphone users have been looking for.
