Staying true to their promise, AT&T has finally released the Motorola Backflip, which comes as their first ever Android-powered smartphone. It has actually been available in China and Italy already, so now Americans can as well get a hold of this interestingly unique smartphone.

If you’re wondering what makes it unique among other Android phones with QWERTY keyboard and touchscreen display, well, this Motorola Backflip comes with a backflip mechanism on its QWERTY keyboard, which would be revealed on a reverse flip. Moreover, this also comes with a Backtrack touch panel on the other side of the touchscreen display for faster easier way of navigating and scrolling.

The photo we’re seeing isn’t actually new as we’ve already seen this same photo back in December 2009 when it was rumored to come as the Motorola Opus One, an iDEN handset that is said to run on Android OS. The latest news is that this Motorola Opus One won’t actually be called as such, but rather, as the Motorola i1.

This leads to thinking that there could also be possibilities of having an i2 or even i3 in the works, eh? But anyway, we still don’t have any confirmed details and specs about this Motorola i1; but rumors are saying that aside from running on Android 1.5 OS, this will…

The last time we’ve heard about Mister Cartoon was last year when he collaborated with MetroPCS and Samsung for the special edition of the Samsung Messager R450. Well, MetroPCS and Mister Cartoon are back once again, this time, collaborating for a remake of the Motorola VE440, which was released last year.

The Motorola VE440 is only a low-end music phone, which not everyone would surely buy. It isn’t an interesting phone as compared to the mobile trend we have these days, but having that Mister Cartoon edition would surely appeal a lot. “The mobile phone has become so much more than just a communication device; it’s a way for people to…

T-Mobile won’t be the only carrier that will be releasing the Motorola Cliq XT next month, since TIM, Brazil’s third largest mobile carrier, will also be launching this device on March as the Motorola Quench. This device has been officially unveiled at the MWC 2010, and as said, it will indeed be called the Quench outside US.

As of date, it is said that this Motorola Quench is the only smartphone with MotoBlur that does not support a QWERTY keyboard. But other than that though, this device is sure to become a hit. This runs on Android 1.5 OS, and it will be powered by Qualcomm MSM7201A 528MHz processor with 512MB…

The Motorola Backflip has already been announced in China and in Italy; and now, according to press release, AT&T is also getting it ready for an American release this March. This is then believed to become the carrier’s first ever Android-powered smartphone.

Other than running on Android 1.5 and aside from having an odd yet innovative and interesting reverse flip design, this Motorola Backflip will also have interesting features.

This will have MotoBlur UI with social networking integration (Facebook, MySpace Twitter), a full QWERTY keyboard, 3.1-inch touchscreen display, 5-megapixel camera with autofocus, LED flash and video recording, 3.5mm headset jack, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AGPS, HSDPA connectivity, and a microSD card slot that can…

It looks like the long-rumored Motorola Zeppelin won’t come out with such a name as it has finally been announced at the MWC 2010 as the Motorola CLIQ XT or Quench outside the US. There are a few distinct differences that this smartphone has as compared to its predecessor, the Cliq, which is released last year.

This Motorola Cliq XT or Quench is believed to be the eight Android smartphone from the manufacturer. Unlike the original, this won’t have any physical slide-out QWERTY keyboard; but rather, it will have the Swype input on the virtual keyboard. Aside from that, another difference is that this new smartphone has optical trackpad, Adobe Flash…

It was in January when we first heard and spotted the leaked Motorola Motosplit in what seems to be of a rendered image, and now, more rendered images of this intriguing device are seen at the Android Community.

I can say that the previous render was more appealing as compared to this one, though I am not saying I find the previous appealing as well. Based on this new leaked photo, this Motosplit seems to use dynamic key labels, which would probably let users pull out one side to reveal the numeric keypad or both sides, which would be in split, to reveal its full QWERTY keyboard.

Its other features are rumored…

This is also believed to be the first phone from Verizon to feature MotoBlur, “a feature that syncs in-phone data with posts, messages and photos from Facebook, MySpace and Twitter”, and all can be viewed from the homescreen.

As previously rumored, this Motorola Devour will have 3.1-inch HVGA 320 x 480 capacitive touchscreen display, full slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 3-megapixel fixed focus camera, accelerometer, Wi-Fi, AGPS, stereo Bluetooth, 3.5mm headset jack, and 8GB memory…

It has now become official that the Motorola Zeppelin, which we’ve heard back in October 2009, will be running on Android 1.5 with MotoBlur since live photos of this device showing its home-screen were spotted in Brazil. A different version of this Zeppelin was as well seen in China, and we’re not sure if North America will have this or not.

So anyway, this Motorola Zeppelin is believed to come with 3.1-inch HVGA display, 5-megapixel camera with flash, Wi-Fi, GPS, HDMI out, 3.5mm headset jack, and a microSD card slot. We’ve been hearing that this Motorola Zeppelin will also come as a dual-SIM phone, and if that case is true, this…

Just last month, we’ve heard a buzz pertaining to the long-rumored Motorola Calgary that is set to hit Verizon. If you’ll read back, the Motorola Calgary has been around the web since December of 2008, and now, everything seems to fall into place.

Well, it looks like this device won’t come out with such a name since leaked shots of promotional material for a certain Motorola Devour is spotted, and it looks just the same as the leaked Motorola Calgary we’ve seen.

This is believed to be powered by Qualcomm MSM7627 CPU, which is also being used by the Palm Pixi and Blackberry Curve 8530. Such is said to come from the…

Motorola has announced at the CES 2010 that the Motorola Backflip will be available to AT&T this first quarter of the year. While we thought that the US will be the first to get a hold of this handset, Motorola has just announced its availability to the Chinese market.

Indeed, the Motorola Backflip is now being sold in China as the Motorola ME600, making it the first Motoblur platform-based device in the country.

We’re not quite sure if the Motorola Zeppelin we have here is the same as with the Motorola Zeppelin XT800 that has been presented in China last year. Design-wise, you’ll see two different casing, and some of its specs are as well different.

The XT800 is a high-end device while this Zeppelin will only come as a mid-level handset. Both of which are Android-powered devices anyway, and the main difference you’ll probably notice about these two handsets is its screen size. The XT800 has 3.7-inch 854 x 480 pixels while the Zeppelin will only have 3.2-inch 480 x 320 pixels touch screen display. The Zeppelin will also have a touch-sensitive navigation…
