Motorola’s StarTACIII

Motorola’s StarTACIII retains many of the original aesthetic features that made StarTAC a classic. The new handset is instantly recognizable by its chic black coloring, specially-developed scratch-resistant facade, a smoothly contoured front, and the distinctive StarTAC opening chime. StarTACIII’s powerful antenna, its simple and sleek figure, and stylishly silver trim along the sides are an ideal complement to StarTAC’s original classic design, forming a unique meld of the old and the very new.

Motorola StarTACIII review by Motorola “The original StarTAC was the most innovative mobile model in terms of design and functionality at the time that it was released. StarTAC was known as “the only ‘wearable’ mobile device”, “the smallest and lightest mobile phone”, and “a fantastic mobile,” weighing in at a mere 88g and not much larger than a name card. The United States’ Business Week nominated StarTAC as the best hit product of 1996 in recognition of its superior functions, including an extremely long-lasting battery, high sound quality, and the very first incorporation of a vibrating function on a handset.”

Motorola StarTACIII review by Mobiledia “Reflecting both the change in times and technology, StarTACIII can alert people to any missed or received calls and text messages by means of three signal lights on the outside - users can stay notified without even having to open up the handset. In addition, StarTACIII features a full range of Motorola’s most popular features, including a high definition 2.0-inch TFT QVGA LCD screen, clearly displaying all pictures, as well as such useful functions as international roaming, GPS, “Moneta M-Bank,” an electronic dictionary with over three hundred thousand words, and high quality MP3 playback.
