As a result, these three important characteristics give us such an idea of the device — medium-sized smartphone with very thick case and weak battery.
Main camera and selfie camera
In front of the screen there is a selfie-camera on the 0.3 MP. Among all the cameras, this we attributed to the segment weak cameras. The main camera got 8 MP, located on the back of the body. We defined it in the segment very weak cameras at the moment. If you have a little more money, then we suggest adding and buying one of the camera phones, which we sorted separately in our catalog.

Evaluation of the characteristics, probably, you have already folded, and if not, here is our result. Motorola Photon 4G MB855 is not a very fast smartphone with a convenient screen size and a conventional main camera, and the front camera did not turn out super cool. And to all this we add that the battery, unfortunately, is weak here.

Of course, at the beginning of sales, almost every smartphone becomes a Droid, and we advise buying such models. But over time, the situation is changing, no one updates the Android version in the smartphone, and in six months or a year this smartphone can already become a Junk.
