14 DAY TRIAL // One day later than it was expected, Boost Mobile announced the availability of the Motorola Theory feature-phone.
The handset is available for purchase for only $79.99, but the carrier throws in free shipping for those who acquire the mobile phone online.
Announced one month ago, along with Motorola Clutch +i475 and i412, the Theory combines a stylish but practical design and enhanced messaging capability.
Bearing a Blackberry-esque form factor and a premium design, the feature-phone comes with a traditional QWERTY keyboard that offers users a smooth texting experience.
Some of the key features of the Theory include threaded messaging, Web and email access, Bluetooth technology, 1.3-megapixel rear camera and 2.4-inch QVGA display.
“Motorola is excited to collaborate with Boost Mobile to extend the device options available for their no-contract customers,” said Jeff Miller, corporate vice president, Motorola Mobility.
The Motorola i412 has been designed for users who are looking for a simple phone for talking, texting and walkie-talkie functionality.
The i412 enables instant communication through Boost Mobile’s nationwide walkie-talkie service, allowing consumers to connect with friends and family with a simple push of a button.
“Both stylish and affordable, these new devices enable consumers to get more out of their conversations whether over talk, text, email or IM," concluded Miller.
The phone features a clamshell form factor and comes bundled with iTap predictive text entry technology, Java support, VGA camera with zoom, Web access, GPS functionality, and Bluetooth technology.
Boost Mobile has already confirmed that the Motorola i412 should hit shelves around June 13th and will be available for $69.99.
Just like Motorola Clutch + i475, the basic flip phone should be available in major retailer stores across the country by late June, as well.
On related news, Boost Mobile added the Clutch +i475 to its portfolio a few weeks ago and the phone can be purchased for $99.99.
