March 29th, 2011
The Motorola Atrix is an amazing dual-core 4G smartphone, and it boasts an equally remarkable array of accessories. The selection is super diverse, including items across a broad range of categories. In this article, we’ll look at these various categories and the roles they play in the life of a Motorola Atrix owner.
The Motorola Atrix is an exciting smartphone, and if you have any interest in gadgets at all, some aspect of it is sure to impress you. Both in terms of style and performance, Motorola has taken a leading-edge approach to developing this device. It’s little wonder then that it has been such an immediate success. Another factor playing an important role in its success is the incredible range of Motorola Atrix Accessories available. Even simple accessories, such as a Motorola Atrix Screen Protector or an extended-life Motorola Atrix Battery, have a wealth of choice associated with them. In fact, the selection is so broad that most people don’t realize all the roles that accessories play in usage. Let’s start with the most obvious role: protection. Some of the most popular smartphone accessories available are all about protection. Screen protectors keep those gorgeous LCD screens looking like new. We can pound away with fingertips or pen without worrying about leaving behind marks. Likewise, aftermarket cases let us to keep those shells scratch free even when we bump into stuff, and some allow us to carry the Atrix around on our belts. Pouches let us transport the Atrix in a purse or a briefcase without worry about knocking it around too much. Another role accessories play is convenience. Consider the vehicle docking station. A docking station allows us to mount our Atrix to the dashboard, windshield or even the steering wheel so that we can access it conveniently. We can even enhance that convenience with a Bluetooth headset. With a Bluetooth headset, we don’t need wires, and it’s not just for telephone conversations. We can accomplish many tasks on our Motorola Atrix simply via voice commands. We can also file desk-based docking stations under convenience. All we have to do is set up the station once. Now, whenever we dock our Motorola Atrix it automatically charges and automatically connects to our PC. Chargers and batteries are great examples of how accessories play roles in functionality and performance. Of course, every Motorola Atrix comes with a default charger and battery in the box. But the battery has limited life, and the charger is best suited for home use. An extended-life battery lets us get more out of our Motorola Atrix longer, and it lets use that default battery as backup. With chargers, we can buy one that is more portable so that we can use it in our car or in a hotel room. Another popular purchase is sync-charges. Sync-chargers are chargers that let you charge through a PC or other device at the same time you’re exchanging data. Last but not least, we come to the roles of personalization and style. When you have a smartphone as popular as the Motorola Atrix is, it’s difficult to distinguish yourself. Fortunately, there’s a wide range of accessories on the market that let you do just that. For instance, skins let you completely change the color of your Atrix or even replace it with a pattern. Other popular accessories include cell phone charms. The nice thing about cell phone charms is that they’re inexpensive and therefore you can change them out frequently so that your style stays fresh.
