hey guys it's jeff Rena with pocket now calm if you can follow in our Android coverage so that we recently reviewed the samsung transform on sprint which is a touchscreen android device with a full qwerty slide out keyboard well now it's time to unbox the same type of device but from entirely different manufacturer and carrier and that's the motorola flipside so this video let's go ahead and unbox it and we're back and we've already cut the package I've elope open so you aren't stuck waiting for us to pull the device out so let's go ahead and actually take this guy right out and as you can see here actually going to zoom in a little closer so you can get a better view of the box once again this is the motorola flipside this does feature the motoblur technology as you can see right here the box itself will give us some of the icons it's going to have the Wi-Fi B&G its android 2.1 all of that fun stuff now of course in the box you want to have the actual device itself the battery the charger a 2 gigabyte microSD card which is pre-installed the Quick Start Guide and of course we have some of the main features here now one of the main features to actually take note of is the somewhat slower processor it's a 720 megahertz processor however this guy does have a fairly good amount of RAM which is actually 512 megabytes so hopefully that will help make up for the slower if you will processor spreads out the box is going to have the Quick Start guides in the manual ATT is big on the texting and driving it can wait campaign is why we see that on top there and of course we're going to have the which is a micro USB charger to the usb the wall adapter which will actually feature the USB port on the sides you can somewhat see here that's why you'll actually plug that cable into the battery which if we flip this over is an 1150 milliamp hour battery and then last but not least we'll have the back of the cover so let's go ahead and clear this stuff aside will pop the battery and pop a sim card in and get this guy booted up alright we're back and we've now popped in the battery in the sim card we're going to go ahead and power the device up for the very first time let's see where this takes us now if you don't know what motoblur is it is Motorola's custom skin that is over android for example you have HTC Sense which is HTC's custom skin that's one of the great things that manufacturers like about Android is the fact that they can skin it however they see fit now that may not be your personal preference but like we said Motorola has incorporated motorola blur hey which is actually what you're seeing pop up and we've now fully booted up it's going to give us a quick start menu here now it's going to ask you to sign in with a motoblur account if you do not have one you can make a new one if you do have one you can sign in with that account and we're actually going to run through that process right now alrighty we are now fully started up and fully registered as you'll see here we have the home screen looks like we have some quick icons down at the bottom as well as some pre-determined shortcuts for some applications swiping to the left will get a different screen it looks like we have seven home screens here which actually correspond to these sections down here and this is just a prefilled in widgets as well as application so that's been a quick look at the motorola flipside our next video will actually be a software overview which will detail motorola blur so you can actually get a better look at it so make sure you stay tuned for that video otherwise as always everyone thank you for watching like this video please give it a thumbs up and we'll see you soon
