Motorola slides in the HSDPA capable Z8m

Motorola has announced its third iteration of the Z8, but this time with the addition of 7.2Mbps HSDPA connectivity. Called the Z8m, besides it’s upgraded HSDPA (from 3.2 to 7.2 Mbps), the new phone sports the same features as the original Z8. A 2.2-inch QVGA display, 2-megapixel camera, 80MB internal memory, microSD card slot (4GB max), one-touch music access, photo viewer, Bluetooth, USB 2.0, and GPS rounds out the highlights of the phone. Design wise, the Z8m is a “kick-slider” that has a curved body, which supposedly better fits your face. Motorola says the bent shape enhances call quality since the microphone is closer to your face.

The Motorola Z8m is currently on sale through SK Telecom in South Korea, with a price tag of 500,000 Won or around $500 USD.
