The Motorola A925 adds Bluetoothâ„¢ and Infrared wireless connectivity to the A920 3G smartphone, making it a superb business tool. Apart from these additions and a minor external makeover, the A925 is the same as the A920, and so much of this review repeats what has already been said about the A920.

As a 3G phone, the A925 supports all of 3’s video mobile services: video calling, video messaging & downloading video clips. It supports assisted GPS (Global Positioning Satellite) for enhanced location-based services. It also benefits from high-speed data transfer whilst on the 3G network. The screen format supports widescreen video.

The TFT screen on the A925 is excellent. It has 65k colours, and is large at 4cm x 6cm, with a high resolution of 208 x 320 pixels - the same as the Sony Ericsson P900.

The internal memory of the phone is only 8 Mbytes, so you’ll need to make use of the memory card. A 32 Mbyte card is supplied, and this is expandable.
