The Motorola MOTO W7 Active Edition is a sleek 3G handset, centred around gesture-based input as well as catering toward those with an energetic lifestyle.
The W7 is a 3G phone with 2.2″ screen, two cameras including a 2 megapixel camera and VGA for video calling, 8GB of external memory space with microSD support, stereo Bluetooth and FM radio.
Accelerometer technology makes the simplest of phone functions fun, as flipping the phone over to silence the ringer of an incoming call, snooze the alarm clock or pause the music.
Two shakes allows the W7 to instantly launch your favorite application. When navigating photo albums or music libraries, flicking the phone right or left will shift between songs or pictures.
The Motorola W7 also ties into an active lifestyle, with a pedometer counting and recording every step when jogging or walking. A personal trainer application creates a unique profile to set goals and track progress.
MOTO W7 Active Edition will be available from Q2 2009 in Asia and Latin America. Interestingly, release dates for the European and US markets have not been revealed…we hope that Motorola won’t abandon these competitive markets!
