Motorola unveils the colourful side of music with the launch of MOTO U9

Notes and media contacts

MOTO U9 combines all the key elements that discerning consumers look for in a stylish, music-enabled phone:
• Taking all Requests -- ¹Download purchased or subscription music from more than 200 music stores, such as Napster, onto the device from your PC using USB 2.0 for speedy transfers and data access.
• Visual Sensation - Experience the rich colours that vibrantly dance on its display of borderless organic light emitting diodes (OLED) with any one of more than 20 floating animated screensavers. When closed, the U9's music player can be controlled with touch sensitive keys that appear magically, along with the name of the song and artist.
• Freestyle Rappin' -- Make the easy transition from phone to music and back again, MOTO U9 allows one-touch access to your library and pauses music as calls come through.
• Stage Manager -- Manage all your music using the simplicity of Microsoft's Windows Media® Player 11. MOTO U9 works right out of the box, and Windows Media Player automatically recognises the device.
• Spatial Harmony -- Up to 25 MB of on-board user memory and an optional microSD™ memory card for up to 4GB of music pictures and other media.
• Unplugged -- With stereo Bluetooth® wireless technology, users can enjoy a wireless mobile stereo experience on the go with compatible Bluetooth-enabled stereo headphones such as the ROKR S9 Universal Bluetooth Stereo Headphones.
• Acoustics -- Advanced "speaker independent" voice recognition dialing and talking phone features.
• Express Yourself -- The 2.0 megapixel with 8x zoom camera with multi-shot feature delivers quality, printable and sharable images. Hold the phone like a traditional camera by using the external dedicated camera key and full screen landscape view finder, and capture your style using self-portrait camera mode on the front display.

The Motorola U9 handsets is expected to be available in pink and purple at the end of March in authorised retail outlets across UAE.
