The Motorola EM326g is the first slider released as a Net10 phone. It is packed with the following positive features:
- The cell phone includes 300 minutes and 60 days of service on activation.
- It is a Single Rate phone charging 10¢ per minute for every call whether local, nationwide long distance or roaming. International calls to over 60 destinations 15 are available for just 15¢. Messaging charges are only 5¢ per message.
- Airtime Minutes allows you to buy ringtones and graphics.
- The phone is sleek and compact being 3.8” long by 1.9” wide and just .5” thick. It is lightweight and portable weighing just 3.05 ounces with the battery installed.
- The curved edges of the EM326g give it a chic new age look.
- The screen is sufficiently big for comfortable viewing and text message typing. The screen displays all the information that you could possibly need from signal and battery strength to alarm clock and Bluetooth indicator and airtime info.
- A single press of one of the buttons lights up the screen and shows you the necessary information without having to unlock the phone.
- The slider is smooth in its functioning and yet it feels solid and reliable.
- This phone also packs Bluetooth Wireless Technology in it, a feature not so common in the previous phones that have been released in this category and PC connectivity via USB.
- The phone’s camera is of 1.3 megapixels, a resolution much higher than most of the other phones of this range.
- The usual features like call waiting, caller ID and voicemail are also present.
- In addition to text messaging, this phone provides you with the option of sending MMS picture messages.
- The phone comes with a handsfree speaker and the option of auto redial, the latter essential if you are in a hurry.
- The phone includes 25 polyphonic ringtones and a nice, strong vibrating alert.
- Interesting applications like FM Radio and MP3 Player are also included in this phone.
- Java based games included in this phone are much more advanced and interesting than the games included in the previous models.
- The battery life is impressive at a talktime of 8.1 hours and standby time of 12 days.
- The phonebook can hold as many as 1000 entries.
However, some things to look down upon in the phone are:
- The call quality is not that good as the speaker is quite far away from the mouth when the slider is open.
- The headset needed for the FM Radio and cable and SD card for the MP3 Player are not included.
- There is no option of removing the airtime balance and due date from the screen.
Overall, the Motorola EM326g is a pretty good phone, significantly better than its predecessors. If you want better call quality then you could go for the LG 600G.
