motoluxe-red

Motorola’s woken up with a spring in its step and news to tell: It’s decided to announce the new Motoluxe 4-inch Android handset to us in the UK. It’s not going to bowl you over in terms of specs, but its design and price just might.

The Motoluxe, to its credit, doesn’t look like it belongs in the budget sector. The thin, sharply-hewn device sports an admirable 4-inch display and an 8-Megapixel camera (and front-facing VGA cam).

The top-end tech stops there, though; the processor tops out at 800MHz and version of Android is 2.3, rather than Ice Cream Sandwich.

But then the price does make up for the lack of specs. The Motorola Motoluxe will be available to buy  from Amazon for £250 as of March 22nd. That’s the same price as the ZTE Skate, but here you’re getting a phone that really looks like it belongs in the higher echelons of the market.

Oh yeah, it’s also got a bloody massive blue light stuck to the bottom. As you do.

    If it didn’t have the blue light, it’d look more expensive. I love blue things but, that does make it look rather tacky unfortunately. Perhaps to differentiate between top class and budget. Specs aren’t too bad though. If my mum liked Motorola I’d consider getting this for her as it’s the camera she uses a lot! Or would if her phone wasn’t so bad.

      For £250, it’s pretty impressive. That’s how much the £150 Orange San Francisco goes for unsubsidised. If Motorola partnered with Orange for this one as they did the Atrix, they could have a hit on their hands.
