C300 specifications

The Motorola C300 is a compact and reliable mobile phone that was launched in the early 2000s, designed for users seeking essential communication features without the complexity found in modern smartphones. This device is particularly notable for its simplicity, affordability, and functionality, making it an attractive option for individuals who prioritize basic telephony over advanced features.

One of the standout features of the Motorola C300 is its lightweight design, weighing approximately 86 grams. This makes it easy to carry around, fitting comfortably in pockets or small bags. The phone's compact size, combined with a durable construction, ensures that it can withstand daily wear and tear, making it an ideal companion for active users.

The Motorola C300 is equipped with a monochrome display, featuring a resolution of 128 x 128 pixels.
