Motorola’s cheaper phone for world

Motorola, owned by Google Inc, said on Wednesday that it will target an estimated 500 million people worldwide who can’t afford phones costing more than US$200.

The phone’s 4.5-inch screen, measured diagonally, is capable of high-definition video, but only at 720p, not at the better 1020p standard of leading phones. The resolution is 329 pixels per inch, comparable to the 326 pixels in the latest, 4-inch iPhones but short of the 441 pixels in Samsung’s 5-inch Galaxy S4.

The phone starts selling in Brazil and parts of Europe on Wednesday. It will be available in Canada, parts of Asia and the rest of Europe and Latin America in the next few weeks. It is expected in the US, India, the Middle East and additional markets in Asia in January, and in some African markets early next year.
