Cingular Releases HTC's STRTrk as the Cingular 3125

Filed in archive HTC , New Products/Services , Smartphones , Windows Mobile by Rico Mossesgeld on September 14, 2006

Expect Cingular to add more to the HTC model name confusion as the service provider releases HTC's first Windows Mobile clamshell phone, the STRTrk ("Star Trek") as the Cingular 3125.

The 3125 features, aside from the usual Windows Mobile PIM functions:

A QVGA (320x240 pixels) display

Push e-mail, via Microsoft's MSFP

A Speakerphone

Bluetooth and Infrared for connectivity

64MB internal memory

microSD slot

Support for MP3 Ringtones and Playback

Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900), plus GPRS and EDGE capabilities

Mobiledia has more detailed info. Perhaps the biggest selling point of this smartphone, if it clicks, is how thin it is. At barely over half an inch-thick, it's clear who the 3125 is gunning Motorola's razr. You can buy the Cingular 3125 online from Cingular's website.

Aliases Galore: Apparently the HTC STRTrk/Cingular 3125 is also known as the Qtek 8500.

In Other Cingular News: Cingular has also made the Nokia E62 available to its subscribers, and will release its own version of the Blackberry Pearl next year.

Do'h! So much for the 3125 competing with the RAZR. The service provider's version of HTC's smartphone has a thicker battery!

Any word on a CDMA version of this phone for Verizon (or any thin flip smartphone for Verizon)?

Unfortunately, I wouldn't know, as I live in a country were no one's probably heard of CDMA. lol. Feel free to check out Verizon Wireless' site.
