Preparations are underway for XPress Telecommunications to launch the
new Motorola i305 phone to the local market. The latest direct connect
phone is designed to meet military specifications for humidity, shock, dust,
and blowing rain , as well as other extreme weather conditions.
“The i305 is particularly suitable for those sectors with tough working
conditions or require a lot of field work. The durability of the phone allows
it to resist the roughest environments and thus maintain its good
condition,” said Ashraf Samawi, XPress Chief Sales and Marketing Officer.
A sturdy and rain-resistant phone, the i305 is certified to meet US Military
Standard (810 F) for blowing rain, humidity, and salt fog. It is designed to
withstand exposure to rain, sleet, and snow. Rubber encasing, interior
linings, and seals protect the phone’s antenna, speakerphone, keys,
battery door, and accessory connections against water intrusion.
The phone’s rugged construction allows it to perform in extreme outdoor
environments and to stand up to dusty environments, drops, exposure to
vibration from heavy machinery use, and hot/cold climates.
The Motorola i305 weighs 188 grams with dimensions of 3.3x6x13
centimeters, and features Direct Connect, the walkie-talkie service, in
addition to mobile phone services.
Other features include voice-activated dialing, built-in speakerphone for
hands-free mobile conversations, walkie-talkie speaker/privacy mode,
multi-language support, assigned ring tones for contacts, vibracall alert,
quickstore phone numbers, one-touch dialing, one-touch Direct Connect,
built-in Internet microbrowse, and T9 for fast text entry. The i305 is also GPS
enabled.
