Motorola, T-Mobile launch MotoRizr Z3 in U.S.

The stylish and uniquely crafted Motorola MotoRizr Z3, the first GSM slider in the U.S., is now available exclusively from T-Mobile USA, Inc., with premium communications and multimedia features, and a vibrant pearl blue with soft-touch finish.

Featuring an integrated 2.0 megapixel camera with 8x zoom, high-intensity camera light, landscape view finder and dedicated external camera button, the phone gives people the experience and benefits of a functional digital camera, with the capability to shoot and share photos quickly.

Sharing pictures is made simple using T-Mobile’s My Album, a personal online album that stores pictures, video and voice messages for easy viewing and sharing. Users can easily access the My Album link built into the MotoRizr, and quickly access their myFaves contacts to send fun picture messages, as well as video, text and instant messages.

“The new MotoRizr Z3 is Motorola’s first GSM slider form factor – allowing consumers another choice for mobile phones,” said Jim Wicks, vice president, Consumer Design Experience, Motorola, Inc.

Users also can rock to favourite tunes with a built-in music player that supports a variety of audio formats and stereo Bluetooth wireless technology for hands-free listening. Storage space for music, photos or files is expansive, using the microSD slot for up to 2GB of optional removable memory. The MotoRizr Z3 is equipped with video capture and playback, quad-band technology and USB 2.0 connectivity for file transfers and data access.
