New MOTOROKR Models: EM30, EM28, EM25

Techtree News Staff, Aug 06, 2008 1720 hrs IST

Motorola has expanded its music-optimized ROKR portfolio with 3 new models - candybar EM30, clamshell EM28, and slider EM25.

Motorola is expanding its ROKR portfolio with 3 new music-optimized devices. The new lineup includes MOTOROKR EM30, a candybar phone using Motorola's ModeShift technology, ROKR EM28, a clamshell device with sonic features and touch-sensitive keys, and ROKR EM25, a slider with FM radio-sharing capabilities.



ROKR EM30 is being billed as 50% talk and 50% music. It uses ModeShift technology to illuminate the keyboard - red keys light up in music mode and a blue keypad appears in phone mode - allowing users to switch between talk, text and music at the touch of a button. Featuring the Radio Data System (RDS) technology, users can figure out the artists and songs playing on the FM radio. It is compatible with Windows Media Player 11 and allows downloading music from more than 200 online music stores. More details.


ROKR EM28 sports a clamshell design and allows users to control music with touch-sensitive keys that appear only when needed. The front of the phone displays the name of the artist and song, eliminating the need to open the flip. It offers a 3D sound effect for surround sound and an audio equalizer provides 11 pre-set music genres, including rock, reggae and pop. More details.

ROKR EM25 promises a genuine music player experience including immediate access to a stored music library and built-in FM radio, in a sleek handset. The phone has a dedicated music key to access stored music and controls to play, pause, forward and rewind songs.

Consumers can use FMShare to share a station with friends by sending it as a text message. The phone has SONGID technology to help users identify a song. More details.

While the new ROKR devices are offered in various designs to suit a range of consumer preferences, each supports GSM/EDGE technology. ROKR EM30 is expected to launch first in Taiwan followed by other markets throughout the quarter, while EM28 and EM25 will be available later this quarter around the globe.

Having fed up with nokia fuddy duddy slow phones with every time tick mark yes or no sign pop ups , felt moto had better software products and this EM 28 suits my taste except for the vintage button keypad instead of V3i type.I only wish if they can catch up and make design similar to CDMA Nokia 2650 with mp3 player and 1.3pix cam for about 3000 Rs that would be a runaway sucess (many are switching to reliance for the sake of this phone )
