Motofone F3


Motofone F3 combines the aesthetics of a slim phone and a price tag that most common man can afford. Priced at a modest 1,655 INR, the phone comes with a dirt proof cover, a simple user interface that even an illiterate can navigate through without much struggle, and a long life Li-ion battery. But, the most notable technological innovation that Motofone F3 incorporates in its slender body is the e-ink display, which not only consumes very less power, but also has a good visibility under all lighting conditions. In fact, this is one of the reasons why the phone has a longer battery life than most other phones in its category. Motofone F3's other features include polyphonic ring tones, speakerphone, twin antenna, ringtone downloads, and iTap and voice prompt. Motofone F3 weighs just 68 grams.

On the flip side, Motofone F3 does not have a FM radio, and its screen is a bit small to display 13 digits in a single screen (that is, a phone number with the area code). The same handicap appears while typing text messages as well (in this case, 7-9 characters in a single screen). Elsewhere, Motofone F3 is a handy and affordable phone with good voice reception and decent overall performance index.
