Interface

Motorola has always had a problem with their handsets when it comes to this particular subject. The very fact that they are facing whatever shortcomings in terms of appreciation; the fault lies in their outdated software. Since the release of the KRZR, they had some minor updates. But wish for a completely new interface still remains the wish.

The RIZR has the same updated software. When you startup the phone, you can choose to turn on Networks or just plain Flight Mode. The D-Pad of the phone can be customized leaving out the center key, which is a default Main Menu/Select button. Even the two option buttons, as I mentioned earlier, can be customized.

The phone works out a little fast, must be because there was just a 128 MB card installed. As the capacity increases, it slows down as seen in case of the KRZR.

Other details are; the phone supports 30 call entries, 10 each for dialed, received, and missed calls. It has a 1000 entry phonebook with photocall support. The phone has a 16 MB of internal memory, it is quite sufficient for your ringtones and even capturing those images. The phone has animated screensavers, which really look nice, thanks to the great screen.

The other tools that come with the phone are the Digital Music Player, which stands out the most. Organizer, Calculator, and a few games also come bundled with the phone.
