Motorola has launched the elder sibling of the QUENCH XT3 Android smartphone in India - the QUENCH XT5. Both the phones are nearly identical, except for the fact that the XT5 comes with a 5.0 megapixel fixed focus camera instead of a 3.2 megapixel camera on the XT3. The XT5 also has a built-in FM radio, something that the XT3 lacks.
The XT5 has a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen display with a 320 x 480 pixel resolution. It has a 600 MHz Qualcomm MSM7227 processor and 256MB of RAM. The device also has 512MB of built-in user memory and a microSD card for further expansion and comes with a 2GB card as standard with the ability to expand it to 32GB. The QUENCH XT5 supports GSM 3G, HSPA, Bluetooth v2.1, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and A-GPS connectivity. Finally, it runs on Android 2.1 Eclair, which we feel is outdated now that Google has announced its Android 2.3 powered Nexus S as well as the fact that competing devices such as the LG Optimus One come with Android 2.2.
The Motorola QUENCH XT5 is priced at Rs. 15,990 (MRP) but can be purchased at a Best Buy price of Rs. 13,990. The phone is available with an Aircel connection and depending upon whether you choose to go for the prepaid or the postpaid connection, you can either get 9GB of free download which has to be consumed within three months and 150 Aircel to Aircel local minutes or 1GB per month free download every month for six months respectively.
Besides the offer mentioned above, Motorola is also throwing in an Adidas jacket and four movie tickets, making it quite a good deal.
