Mobile-review comes with a detailed review of new Motorola MPx220:

Motorola MPx220 replaces the previous model Motorola MPx200, which enjoyed much popularity in the market.
The new model differs from its predecessor in design, 1-megapixel camera and integrated Bluetooth. All main technical problems of the previous model seemed to be improved (the camera, Bluetooth, 4 GSM bands) and the smartphone got better.

The new model got an external color screen displaying 4096 colors (STN). Its quality resembles that in Motorola C350, v150, the resolution is 98x64 pixels. Because of the mirror surface, the screen is less readable, it is bright enough only indoors and outdoors its quality leaves much to be desired, besides sun rays reflecting from the front panel may disturb you. The color screen is rather a fashion tribute than a real necessity.

Like in many other models the effective distance for the camera flash is less than 30 cm. The photos have the maximum resolution of 1280x960 pixels (1.2 megapixel).
If we consider the quality of the snapped photos, we'd say it's awful (it's difficult to find other words to describe it). Almost always the photos are blurred and too light.

By first impressions the keyboard proved to be very comfortable. The joystick is very big and comfortable, digital keys occupy as much place as the joystick together with the soft keys. The keys are terraced, have good press, distinct response and blue backlight (in the dark all inscriptions are seen, the letters F, O, Z at the right side have poor backlight).

The major disappointment with the MPx220 is its internal screen. It got smaller (2" against 2.2", the 2.2" diagonal has become the standard for smartphones with a 176x220 pixel resolution screen), it is not that good under the sun and has small viewing angles (when you rotate it right or left, the picture gets inverted). Other specs are comparable with the MPx200. The screen is 65K.

The MPx220 is equipped with a Li-Ion battery capacious of 1000 mAh. According to the manufacturer it provides up to 110 hours of standby time and up to 4.5 hours of talks. In Moscow the device was good for 1.5-2.5 hours depending on the number of calls. My subjective opinion is that the smartphone works slightly longer than the MPx200, by some 10-15% with the same duration of calls and other functions. It's a good performance, but it yields greatly to the record-breaker among WM smartphones - HTC Typhoon.

The new smartphone by Motorola got some things better and some things worse. So, it acquired an integrated camera, Bluetooth, 4th band, new OS version, but the screen became worse, the camera is one of the best among the analogs, but it has some shortcomings in ergonomics. Well, the model isn't bad, it will find its buyer, however we can't call it a successful successor of Motorola MPx200.

The current price of US$500 seems to be too high, the real price for the device shouldn't be over US$400. There are no direct rivals (except for Samsung Javelin, which is not yet announced), and as for the indirect rivals (based on the other platform), we can call Nokia 6260.
