For those mobile users looking for a second phone for a much simplified or specific purpose, the Modu might be the right phone for you. The term Modu was derived from the word “modular” to emphasize the phone’s functionality and capabilities. The phone itself has the basic phone features aside from being a good MP3 player and storage device. However, the fascinating thing comes when the user puts the modular jacket on the tiny mobile phone. Now, it can be transformed to a more sophisticated gadget offering more features to its user.

You don’t need to get a heavier and more expensive phone for this purpose. The Modu is perfect for making calls as well as sending text messages, aside from this; it is obviously light and handy. Basically, the Modu is very limited as compared to the modern phones being launch in the market. It is reliable in basic functions as making a call, sending text messages and music playback from its 2GB built-in memory.

This device measures 72.1 mm X 37.6 mm X 7.8 mm and reveals 1.3 inch OLED screen. It comes at very light weight of only 43 gms which is already inclusive of the weight of its battery as well as its jacket or casing. The Modu phone comes with a variety of stylish jackets. This is for those who also find the mobile phone a statement of their style and fashion.

More features to expect from Modu :

  • built-in speaker
  • Bluetooth 1.2
  • MP3 player

The choice will really depend on the taste and fashion style of its intended users.
