Motorola Triumphs at the Mobile News Awards 2005
LONDON, March 23, 2005 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Last Thursday, March 17, 2005, it was a double whammy for Motorola at the mobile phone industry's most prestigious award show, the Mobile News Awards 2005, where Motorola won Most Innovative Product for the RAZR V3 and Technological Advance for the A1000.
It was a suitably glamorous affair held in London and Motorola collected not one, but two of the coveted awards, the only company to do so on the evening.
The stunning and stylish RAZR V3 was awarded Most Innovative Product -- beating off some very stiff competition. Judges referred to the handset as "quite simply the sexiest mobile phone ever!" The judges heralded the RAZR V3 as, "the new benchmark for mobile phones", and, "a visionary piece of kit. Style and functionality all wrapped up in a must-have, iconic, sleek design".
Storming ahead of competitor's handsets, the Motorola A1000 was crowned the winner in the Technological Advance category for its truly fantastic 3G functionality. The judges believed the handset was, "the best 3G phone on the market -- big design advance. A small, usable phone that utilises all 3G features."
Commenting on the double win, Ron Garriques, Executive Vice President, Mobile Devices Business, Motorola Inc, said: "As pioneers in 3G technology and with a history of delivering revolutionary innovations around mobile phone design, Motorola is extremely excited about winning these two particular awards. It's great to receive recognition for Motorola's hard work especially from our colleagues within the mobile industry."
Mobile News is one of the UK's leading mobile magazines and the awards are now in their eleventh year. This year's panel of judges was a hand picked collection of respected dealers, industry veterans and other mobile industry specialists.
