Motorola and AT&T announce the Karma QA1
Life’s a bitch and so is karma, but AT&T is hoping to change that with the Motorola Karma QA1. A goofy looking dumb phone that bears an uncanny resemblance to the Somerset, the Karma is a media-centric device that has home screen access to both Facebook and MySpace as well as support for email, IM, MMS and threaded SMS. In terms of hardware, the quad-band EDGE/dual-band HSDPA Karma packs a sliding QWERTY keypad, 2.5-inch QVGA display, 2 megapixel camera, aGPS, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, 3.5mm headphone jack and 100MB of internal memory with microSDHC support (up to 16GB). The Karma will be available online and in AT&T stores on the 28th of this month for $79.99 on a 2-year deal after a $50 mail-in rebate. Any takers?
What a fuckin snooze…
I gotta admit…
These HTC, LG, Samsung phones look good on the pictures but do not feel very good in my hand. On the other hand, Moto phones, despite their looks on the pictures, they generally feels pretty good and solid when I put them on my hands.
I’ve got to try this Karma at the store before talking down on it.
This is a texting phone! It’s supposed to be a simple device. Not for iphone, smartphone, touchscreen, phone nerds that frequent BGR. It’s like the Haters Ball here.
And staying on the turning on features for verizon phones idea, vzw just released a new rom with unlocked gps for the sammy saga today, omnia should have officially unlocked gps later this week.
I think this phone will actually sell pretty well once it drops in price.
You can even see in the press photo who will be buying this phone. And surprise, surprise, they don’t look like anyone who reads this blog.
It looked like the gprs icon when I had my razr from cingular. No need to worry about the 3G icon tho. Att sucks. Lol
this is one hot new moto!!!Where the hell are there android phones?
this is somerset. and those guys trying to compare a dumbphone to a smartphone is just being dumb. seriously, compare apples to apples.
the stupid civic you drive is slower than my porsche too but do i say that honda should die?
Wait… AT&T supports MMS?!?! Weird….
Ive tried so hard to stay loyal to moto. Ive been waiting for something to replace the short lived v9x. This is not what I had in mind. come on moto, join the race.
i like it. the colores are mad ugly but i think it’s a pretty awsome phone.
