Motorola MING is a smartphone designed to impress

MING is based on the Linux® operating system ensuring users maximum productivity and entertainment value from their mobile device.

Motorola continues its design revolution with MING. Its clamshell design bears an innovative clear flip-cover and an antenna-free profile allowing users to view messages and personal data without needing to lift the cover. MING combines a sophisticated look and feel with rich business features, and a high-resolution two megapixel camera resulting in a handset designed to appeal to users who appreciate style and functionality.

MING further demonstrates Motorola's commitment to seamless mobility, providing a true mobile office and allowing consumers to connect with virtually whatever they want, whenever and wherever they are.

"The stunning design of Motorola MING is set to impress in both elegance and productivity. This handset is a magnificent tool for people who want to enjoy a great mobile experience while staying connected and productive. With MING, Motorola is driving the convergence of function and freedom by enabling users to express themselves with one of the hottest form factors on the market,"

said Patrick Mulligan, General Manager, Motorola Mobile Devices Business, Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan and Turkey.

The feature rich MING has the power to help manage busy lifestyles, while embodying professionalism. The bold new handset combines the Linux® operating system with Java technology for delivering rich mobile experiences. The large 2.4 inch 240×320 pixel touch-screen has superb handwriting recognition and a fully featured calendar to make recording appointments easy.

MING also includes a built-in FM radio and an enhanced Real Media Player that supports a wide variety of file formats including MP3, WAV, WMA and AAC+. The built-in Bluetooth® module supports a stereo headset profile making it an ideal mobile entertainment centre.

MING's two megapixel camera also acts as a business card scanner enabling users to store important contacts easily, and the phone's 8Mb of built-in memory can be expanded using a Micro-SD Memory Card (Transflash memory) of up to 512MB.
