    Exclamation [Video] First Hands on the Motorola Backflip


    Hey folks,

    ive been to the german COmputer & Entertainment expo "CEBIT"
    and got my very first hands on a german Motorola Backflip runnin 1,6

    It was nice from the looks, but MotoBLUR made it real laggy. I
    didnt have much time, but enjoy with me!






    P.S.: it might take a while to see the clip, i just uploaded!

    Thanks Tigger, looks interesting. Definitely a funky design I think I might be able to get used to. Motoblur is essentially just widgets you can remove, right? I've never tried it but it looks like something I would ditch immediately.

    It does seem laggy too, does anyone know what kind of processor this has? I couldn't find it on the moto web site.

    Yeah MotoBlur wasn't running to smooth on it and that was on a fresh boot.

    Other than that what are your initial impressions on the device. Weight, feel etc etc

    Thanks Tigger

    No, Motoblur is an interface on top of the Android OS. It might contain widgets specifically for that interface, but it's not just a widget.

    I guess I'm just wondering if users will have the option of bypassing motoblur to use android the way I do now on my droid.

    Not likely until the Devs root it and cook some custom ROMs. In the past OEMs have always made their UIs mandatory on the phones they are included on (i.e. you can't 'turn them off').

    And DAM... over a min for boot (granted the last 10 secs are the Blur BS, but still). Guess I'm spoiled with Pete's ROMs (full boot in 30 secs or less).
    You are right to be wary. There is much bullcrap. Be wary of me too, because I may be wrong. Make up your own mind after you evaluate all the evidence and the logic. - Mark Rippetoe

    when it gets released, buy it while you can

    apple might sue because the front screen and speaker positioning looks exactly like the Iphone

    cant edit posts?

    it looks nice, but not sure how easy it would be to destroy the keyboard. and doesn't it bring back the horror of pocket dialing?

    Only Mods and Admins can edit posts in the News forum.

    I'm not sure about the pocket dialing but could see the keys getting torn up easily enough. Also not sure I like the idea of 'flipping' after using the sliders for so long. Though it will enable different viewing angles which is nice (LOVED that feature on my Tilts).
