However, the FastScroll navigation wheel is also speed sensitive. The d-pad is slightly rough, whereas the rest of the fascia is made from a glossy plastic. In the centre of the phone's d-pad there is a small silver circle, which you can view the position of the d-pad's select button. Just above the FastScroll wheel phone's display is located. The display is a 2.0 inches QVGA 240 x 320 pixel that is capable of showing up to 262k colours. Just above the display is the device's earpiece with a metallic Motorola emblem. This same metallic looking plastic is used on the phone's volume and camera keys that is located on the upper left side of the device. It is also used on the device's power and keypad lock switch that is located on the right side of the handset. Above this switch, there is a micro-USB and charging port, which is covered by a small plastic door. The bottom of the phone houses only a small hole for the microphone, and the 'ROKR' logo that is engraved onto the casing. The top of the device houses a lanyard fixing at the top left corner, and a headphone port in the middle that is covered by a flap. The rear of the phone is clad in a rubbery soft-touch paint, with another metallic Motorola emblem located in the middle. Towards the bottom of the phone there is a slit in the case with a red mesh inside.
