Design
The Linux-based A1200 mobile phone (a.k.a the “MOTOMING”) from Motorola is a clamshell unit solidly constructed around a minimalist design. The phone is compact but feels just heavy enough to be taken serious. The black (actually “Licorice”) rubberized body sports chrome-finish detailing along the sides and front panel. The design feature that stands out is a smoky, transparent flip with thin embedded wires leading to the tiny speaker you place against your ear.
Texture
This section was included because of comments of many people.
The Black version has a rubbery feeling.
The Red and White version is somewhat lacquered. Many think that the black has a classier feel. Its up to you ;)
