Release

StarTAC was unveiled in North America on January 3, 1996. Then the smallest cell phone available, this AMPS phone was an immediate success. Successor TDMA and CDMA StarTACs were equally popular. GSM models were available in North America through Powertel and other early GSM carriers. StarTACs remained popular until the early 2000s, appearing in many Hollywood movies of the period such as 8mm starring Nicolas Cage. Many MicroTAC owners switched to this particular model due to its compact size and light weight.

Europe

The phone was released in Europe as a single band 900MHz GSM telephone in 1997. Despite the advanced technology, it never became a great success in Europe.[citation needed] While the StarTAC was not a great success, its direct successors (the early Motorola V series) were very popular in Europe until about 2003.[citation needed]

Key Features

Some key features of the Motorola StarTAC were:

* SMS text messages, although only the later models had the capability to send messages.
* Introduced clamshell design
* 88 grams[4] (3.1 ounces[3])
* It could use an optional Li-ion battery, at a time when most phones were restricted to short-duration NiMH batteries
* It had a vibrating ring, "VibraCall", the first vibrating alert feature on a phone. It was then only used by Motorola, as they held the patent[1].
