You didn’t expect Motorola would just do a Backflip, they have!
If you’re sick and tired of the monotonous Touchscreen Smartphone every single person in your league owns and you just want to be someone unique then you probable deserve a backflip in your life! I’m not talking about the real deal back flip (you might be too old to do that I don’t want to be liable for your broken bones)I am talking about Motorola Backflip.
It’s the first ever phone I believe that can be back flipped (unless I’m wrong),interesting isn’t it? I believe I was able to encounter the same backflip phone when I was a kid but that was a toy. Never have I imagined that this will be something available to a real mobile phone, makes me wonder Moto tech guys definitely are a kid at heart.
Knowing that this design is ‘kinda’ toyish will the quality and the inside of this ‘Hello Moto‘ be exactly the same as kids toys? If in case you have been doing your assignment and have checked other gadget website for this phone then it’s definitely not new to you that this phone has been criticized over and over again by people who has a high standard when it comes to a Smartphone device (you can check this link for consumers negative feedback about this phone (but please do that later).
I actually find this phone cute. The outside looks savvy and techie but I have to admit that once you flaunt the keyboard it transforms to a toy looking gadget. I don’t know if that’s something good or bad but if you’re a 40+ year old man/woman would you like to be seen with this? Honestly I would, I think it would be sort of cool to be seen with this, it will make the teens think you’re a cool dude, they would wish you’re their dad or uncle, mom or aunt (makes you want to buy now huh?).
But let me tell you that this phone may not pass your high standards especially if you’re into expecting what a droid phone can really do. Some say that it’s just at par with Moto Cliq and unfortunately not a lot was impressed with the latter. I got the specification for you just below:

*** So what is Flash 10.1? Just in case you’re wondering, it’s an upgraded version of Adobe flash but will only be running if you have an Android 2.0 or 2.1 running your Smartphone platform. So that means you would need to upgrade Moto Backflip if you want Flash 10.1 in your phone. Here’s a video of how flash 10.1 should work on an Moto Android phone
