Motorola XT860 4G Review

Score: 57.7 / 100

Motorola XT860 4G is a mid-end Android cellphone released in 2011, provisioned with a powerful Dual-Core CPU speeding at 1 GHz, a 4" multi-touch screen, and 2 cameras, an 8 megapixels back camera and a 0.3 MP front-facing camera. Let's take a closer sight of what this phone has to offer.

Motorola decided to sell this cellphone with a TI OMAP4430 system chip, which holds a good performance Dual-Core CPU clocking at 1000 megahertz and 512 MB RAM. Graphic intensive apps and games generally eats lots of processing power, so it uses a 304 MHz PowerVR SGX540 GPU to improve overall performance. A good point of this cellphone is the 16 GB quite large internal storage and an SD card slot, which allows the user to install a couple hundred games and apps without worrying about space.

The Motorola XT860 4G feels a bit heavy comparing to other cellphones , weighting 6 ounces. This cellphone is a bit thick for nowadays standards, with a thickness of 0.51 inches.

The Motorola XT860 4G has a very good 960 x 540 4-inches display, which makes all pictures and videos look very good. Its display uses TFT capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

This phone features two cameras, an 8 megapixels back facing camera and a 0.3 MP front side camera. It is also able to film 1920x1080 Full HD videos at 30 fps. Additionally, this cellphone's camera also includes flash.

The Motorola XT860 4G packs a medium 1540 mAh Li-Ion battery providing this phone with a below average battery duration. This phone has a reported talk time of 9.7 hours and a stand by time of 240 hs according to Motorola.

This cellphone counts with wi-fi connectivity (which it can provide to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and the fastest 3G data connection, over HSDPA, HSPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone works with a SIM card for GSM carriers.

This phone also includes a handful of interesting characteristics like Bluetooth (2.1, EDR), GPS Localization and Radio, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This cellphone is probably a good choice for you no matter if you want it to play tons of games or will use it as a social device.
