The editors liked
Topclass touchdisplay
Smooth interface offering social networking features
Decent email and web
HDMI out.
Powerful and responsive
Sleek
Innovative laptop dock adds a screen and keyboard
High-resolution screen
Good Motoblur widgets
1080p playback
Webtop mode for computing
Multimedia mode gives great HD playback
Flash browsing is tip top
DLNA streaming
Internet TV on the TV
Even if it isn’t HD. Note you’ll need this to display an Android app in full screen on your TV – plug the phone in directly by HDMI cable and the barebones entertainment centre software launches
Which only plays video files Android natively supports.Charging dockFairly pointless unless someone just stole your alarm clock. Don’t bother.VerdictWith the Motorola Atrix
Moto
Speed
Fingerprint scanner
Docking potential
Good battery life
Screen resolution
Dual core
Battery life
Innovative docking options provide plenty of potential for work or entertainment
Good specification
Larger battery is a welcome feature
As with range-topping handsets from Samsung
Sony Ericsson and others
The Motorola Atrix features a large 4-inch screen. The display on the Atrix is better than most
However
Thanks to a class-leading 540 x 960-pixel resolution. It really is a gorgeous panel
And only the smaller iPhone 4 trumps it for sharpness. It's equally good when it comes to colour reproduction
With movies and photograph
Innovative concept transforms a smartphone into a laptop
Great use of the powerful Tegra 2 chip
Excellent battery life and great camera
Powerful Motoblur interface is especially good at handling contacts
Good quality audio and fast web browsing
Classic design
Two year battery life
Accurate step tracking
Sharp 4in screen
Biometric fingerprint lock
HDMI port
Oodles of accessories
Dualcore processor
Large
Highresolution screen
Interesting array of hardware accessories
The editors didn't like
Lots of software glitches
Mediocre design
Accessory set that is its USP is pricey and yet build quality is cheap.
Confusing concept
With up to three interfaces depending on how you use the phone
Laptop dock is expensive
Multimedia dock caused problems with our sample handset
1080p does not work for HDMI out
Some Flash-based sites did not work
Webtop only works with dock
No movie or TV show service
No full-screen HDMI mirroring
Motobloodyblur
HDMI doesn't screen mirror
Single power/lock/fingerprint button could fail over time
Slippery as a fish
Finger scanner is fiddly but unique
Motoblur isn't fantastic
Lacks wide media support
Runs Android 2.2 rather than 2.3
Extras are expensive.
Motorola has implemented its own skin over the top of Android – as with most of its rivals. It's quite a heavy UI
And neatly covers the operating system
However
So is unlikely to appeal to fans of Android in its purest form. The Motorola Atrix is also bland when it comes to styling
With absolutely no features to help it to stand out. When competing against the Apple iPhone 4
The Samsung Gala
Classic design
Lapdock is expensive
No protection for the connectors
Basic app
Expensive
Sleep and calorie inaccuracies
Not the latest Android OS
Accessories a bit pricey
Large for the pocket
Runs Android 2.2
Accessories (especially the Lapdock) are expensive

Abstract: For a long time, if any technology writer was asked what phone they would recommend to most users, the answer was simple. Even for the least Apple-inclined, ‘Get an iPhone' was the only honest answer. It was not perfect, but it was the best on the mark...
The best parts of the Atrix can also be the worst parts. Those excellent accessories are expensive. Very expensive. It's hard to understand why a laptop needs to be purchased when a netbook would be cheaper and probably more useful.We liked the DLNA funct...

If you want the brightest, sharpest screen, and don't fancy an Apple iPhone 4, the Motorola Atrix could be worth a look. We love the range of features available for the Atrix, although it's hard to imagine that many people will opt for a full on laptop...
Abstract: The Starting LineSo… Let us start at the beginning with a little background information. My present phone is the iPhone 4, Nokia C6-01 and Nokia N8. In addition, I own a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc and I am trialing a Nokia E6 with the new Symbian OS Anna in...
Not the latest Android OS, Accessories a bit pricey
The Motorola Atrix may not be a style icon but its pointing the way to the future of phones with its accessories that allow it to be used as both a laptop and a media centre, though prices will have to come down if they're going to catch on....
During the announcement at CES I thought the Atrix would be my next phone but I am now thankful that I got the chance to review this before I splashed the cash on it. The hardware, while "next-gen", is nowhere near the speed and quality of the Sensatio...
Good specification; larger battery is a welcome feature,
Runs Android 2.2 rather than 2.3; extras are expensive.
For all its unique and clever stuff the Motorola Atrix doesn't quite hit the mark. The accessories add functionality, but they're expensive. The handset itself, despite some good features, failed to wow us. Perhaps Motorola needs to reconsider its Moto...
The Motorola Atrix may look standard at first glance, but a feast of features, along with those accessories, offer hidden depths. Whether this mobile gadgetry will set the tone for future, more powerful smartphones remains to be seen. But as far as ro...

Abstract: So you’ve read the reviews of the latest dual-core Android smartphones, but what about the raw power figures on the Motorola ATRIX, HTC Sensation, Samsung Galaxy S II and the LG Optimus 2X?We thought we’d put all the dual-core handsets in a line and test ...
