Performance
We tested the Motorola Charm in Singapore using M1's service and found the call quality good. According to the specs, the device supports CrystalTalk technology for noise reduction and has dual microphones for noise cancellation. We experienced spotty data connections (for example, problems signing in to Twitter and slower load speeds for Web pages) even in places where we knew we shouldn't run into such problems. One thing to note: The phone doesn't support video calls.
The Charm has a 600MHz processor which while not blazing-fast, was capable of handling the various tasks we threw at it, including running multiple (six to eight) applications in the background. There were slight lags when switching between programs, but nothing crippling.
According to the specifications, the Motorola Charm has a 1,170mAh lithium-ion battery with a rated talktime of 5 hours and standby of about 14 days. With two Gmail accounts on push, Facebook and Twitter on 2-hourly syncs and light text message and phone calls, we managed to get up to 1.5 days of usage.
