The Motorola QA4 spied first in February and spotted on the way to MetroPCS has been officially announced. This slider apparently packs an on-screen QWERTY keypad when tilted sideways, which is kind of a neat trick. Aside from that, the OS runs “integrated” widgets, which leaves me to think there’s not much room for loading up new ones. Specs are otherwise ho-hum, but definitely a stylish phone overall.
- 2.8” WQVGA 240×400 display
- Quad-band CDMA, EV-DO Rev. A
- 2 megapixel camera with 2x zoom
- sGPS/aGPS
- Integrated widgets and RSS
The Evoke will be available in Q2 of this year, and some folks are saying Cricket Wireless will be offering it. We’ll be sure to get our mitts on this one at CTIA Wireless, which begins tomorrow.
