Motorola Svelte Razr Traces its Roots to the DynaTAC
Motorola’s first cellular phone, the DynaTAC portable cellular phone built was in 1972. Thirty-five years later, Motorola’s flagship mobile handset, the Razr2 highlights the difference in technology of the two models.
Motorola’s DynaTAC (Dynamic Adaptable Total Area Coverage) weighed in at a hefty 1kg with keys the size of Chiclets and a battery life of 30 minutes.
Today’s cellular models come in all colors, weigh only a few ounces and provide hours of voice calls, text and video.
When Motorola introduced the DynaTAC in early 1973, they had no idea that they were not only launching a product but a global wireless revolution.
