Having taken up a position on the back burner, the Motorola Z8 has been thoroughly overshadowed by its more powerful, kick-sliding, bigger brother, the Motorola Z10. Unfortunately for the “Banana Phone,” that means the Moto Z8 is destined to fade off into the distance.
But, if Motorola has anything to say about it, the Z8 that kicked off the kick-sliding form-factor at Motorola will live on in the Moto Z8m. Motorola has outfitted this revised Motorola Z8m slider with a speed 7.2Mbps HSDPA radio – hopefully offering enough oomph over the Z8’s 3.6Mbps HSDPA connection to get South Koreans to keep shelling out for the unique slider. The Moto Z8m offers a 2.2-inch QVGA display, 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and 4GB of storage.
The Motorola Z8m should hit Korean shores soon with a 500,000 won ($500) price tag.
