Motorola was there

September 26, 2011 : BY Motorola

Remember when Neil Armstrong took that giant step for mankind on the moon? How about when cellphones first came on the scene? What about the first tablet that ran on Honeycomb, Google’s tablet-specific Android operating system?

We remember those milestones because we were a part of them.

For more than 80 years Motorola has been on the forefront of technology, continually developing innovative ways of connecting people to each other and the world around them.

It all started with cars and took off from there. Here are just a few things we’ve done:

  • 1930 – The Motorola radio was one of the first commercially-successful car radios.
  • 1940s – We made remote communication possible during World War II with our Handie-Talkie SCR536.
  • 1969 – It was our parts that made it possible for Neil Armstrong’s famous words to be heard.
  • 1983 – Motorola’s DynaTAC is the phone you remember from the 80s and also the very first commercial handheld cellphone.
  • 2009 – We introduced the world’s Verizon’s first smartphone powered by Android. You know it as DROID by Motorola.

We’re responsible for a number of firsts, and we don’t plan on stopping any time soon.

Be sure to check out the Motorola Heritage site to see more. We have cool photos, videos and even an interactive timeline of accomplishments.
