Motorola C380

The Good :
Excellent, stylish and professional-look, light weight, GPRS, MMS, USB port

The Bad:
STN display, no infrared

Motorola C380 offers an entry level phone with GPRS, MMS, and USB port installed. Its 65,000 colors display might be good. But the STN technology is already outdated. Consider Samsung C100 or C200 with UFB displays that are much brighter and crisper.

However, Motorola C380 offers a really cool and professional physical design. When you look and hold the Motorola, you feel very bold and charming. Its design is rather similar to newer models of Siemens, especially the Siemens CX65, or Siemens CX70.

GPRS has became the standard, and the USB is something special in Motorola C380. It's not found in other types with the same price range. Samsung C100, C200, or X100, Siemens A65, SonyEricsson J200i, Nokia 2600, all of them don't have the USB port.

Motorola C380's 1,6 MB memory is adequate, yet with a few more dollars, you can get whopping 9 MB memory from Samsung X100. However, Samsung X100's design is awkward, compared to the elegance we find in Motorola C380.

Conclusion :
Overall, Motorola C380 is still a considerable option for you, if you don't really mind about the lack of brightness in its STN display. And if you really like its cool design, then why not, go for it.
