The Motorola W490 is crafted with sleek, compact style and compelling
communication features to keep mobile consumers in touch with ease. Offering
multiple messaging options, a vibrant color screen, lengthy talk-time, this
affordable flip phone is a must-have. Go beyond the flip and experience the
freedom to talk wirelessly, and capture moments in a snap.
Like the W385, the W490 sports a design that's based loosely on the Motorola
Krzr K1. Though it's not nearly as streamlined as its Krzr cousin--the W490 is
boxier with sharper angles--it has the same slender shape with similar
dimensions (3.89 inches by 1.89 inches by 0.68 inch). the W490 has a square
external display that supports 65,000 colors. Besides showing the date, time,
battery life, and signal strength, it also shows photo caller ID, which makes it
more useful than the W385's exterior screen.
The W490 has a 1,000-contact phone book with room in each entry for six phone
numbers, three e-mail addresses, a URL, two street addresses, a birthday, and a
nickname (the SIM card holds an additional 250 names). You can save callers to
groups or pair them with a photo and one of 42 polyphonic ringtones and alert
sounds.
The Motorola W490 has a rated battery life of 7.5 hours talk time and 14.6
days standby time. Our tests revealed an impressive talk time of 8 hours, 10
minutes.
