Motorola Bravo

“For a bit more, you can go with the Samsung Captivate, which is obviously a much better all-round package, while the iPhone is always there, if you feel you should part ways with Android and become friends with iOS. If we set our sight beyond AT&T's lineup, there aren't any alluring features to drastically set the Motorola BRAVO apart from other Motorola handsets – like the large screen of the DROID X or the ruggedness of the DEFY. Ultimately, there isn't something too wrong with the Motorola BRAVO, it's just that it doesn't bring anything new to the table, making it feel like any other generic Android smartphone.”

“The Bravo does a fine job of keeping people connected with Motorola's Motoblur software on board. Email, IM, SMS/MMS and social networking are all handled with ease. The thousands of Android widgets available don't hurt, either. The media player isn't unique, but it works well and Android leaves you with plenty of options. The same is mostly true other media features. The camera software and gallery software are very good, though the camera and camcorder only perform so-so. For first-time smartphone buyers, the Bravo offers enough to entice, but it clearly doesn't match the performance of high-end hardware. I am sure for plenty of buyers, the Bravo will be something to cheer about.”
