The handy W230 serves up both great mobile phone basics and a fantastic music experience, in a candy bar handset that you can show off with pride. Friendly features on the W230 such as long-lasting battery life, a mighty music player and Motorola’s proprietary CrystalTalk™ audio-enhancing technology gives you a dependable experience.
Everything to Stay Connected
The W230 goes beyond basic phone features with multiple ways to stay in touch and up to approximately nine hours of talk time1. It can pack up to 500 text messages and phone contacts, and features an enhanced user interface, making it easy to create a text with one click. The W230 also offers Hinglish predictive text and regional support for seven African languages. Motorola’s CrystalTalk technology enhances each phone call by helping reduce background noises, so calls will be loud and clear.
Raising the Candy Bar
Value and a great music experience come together in true harmony on the W230. Clean lines and a slim design make it extremely pocket-portable and the no-nonsense keypad and large color display are simple to use. The W230 struts its stuff in two pleasing color faceplates, licorice outlined in lustrous silver and dark titanium gray bordered in mandarin, that consumers can interchange at whim.
It's Always Time for Music
The W230 proves its value even further with music features that keep consumers connected and entertained, including a dedicated music key. Consumers can make their ears dance with both an integrated digital audio player that supports MP3 and other popular formats, and an FM radio with RDS that can be played in stereo through headphones or on the W230’s office-quality internal speaker. Store favorite songs on optional removable microSD cards with up to 2GB of memory and download new songs over the air via quick GRPS speeds.2,3 The W230 is expected to be available in Q1 2008.
