T-Mobile latest phone Motorola Charm

Android phones come with big touchscreen. The Motorola Charm is a definitely a different take on the Android smartphone that has a square touch-screen design like that of the Motorola Flipout. The Charm is the second phone to have a Backtrack sensor after the Motorola Backflip. Though the Backtrack works as advertised, we didn’t think it was necessary, and though we like that Motorola refined its MotoBlur interface, we thought it still overcrowded the Charm’s small display.

The good: It is a slim and handy handheld with a roomy keyboard and decent call quality. It comes with Android 2.1, a full HTML browser with Flash Lite, Wi-Fi, 3G, and GPS.

The bad: The display on the Charm is not as vibrant as most other Android phones, and the small screen real estate really makes MotoBlur feel very messy than ever. It has a bad photo quality also.

The bottom line: If you can look past its design pitfalls, the Motorola Charm is an affordable and usable entry-level Android handheld. Android power users, on the other hand, may want to look elsewhere.
