WiFi-only Motorola XYBOARD tablets now available for pre-order
So you like the new Motorola Xoom 2 tablets? I know I like the smaller model, but I would never want another contract just for a tablet. You can get Wi-Fi only versions of the Xoom 2 (XYBOARD) tablets, which [multiple versions] are now available for pre-ordering directly from Motorola. The 8.2-inch model with 16GB of storage could be yours for $399.99, while the 32GB version is selling for $100 more. The story is pretty similar with the 10.1-inch XYBOARD – the one with 16 gigs is going for $499.99, … Read more

Motorola shipped 10.5 million mobile phones in Q4 2011, and only 5.3 million of those were smartphones
Motorla doesn’t get a whole lot of love these days, partially due to the fact that people are waiting to see what Google is going to do with them assuming that Google gets approval to gobble up the fledging handset vendor. With so many awesome devices out on the market from the likes of Apple, HTC, and Samsung, do people still even buy Motorola devices? Besides the RAZR, which came out during the last few seconds of 2011, can you name any Motorola hardware that had a meaningful impact in … Read more

Motorola RAZR, Samsung Galaxy Nexus coming to Fido on January 10
Rogers Wireless’ owned Fido is preparing to spice up its portfolio on January 10th with two hot Android smartphones – Motorola RAZR and Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The first of the two has been officially confirmed by Motorola Canada (via Twitter), while the second one is still in the “rumor phase.” It is said that the RAZR will be available for CA$100 on a new three-year contract, while Galaxy Nexus will sell (presuming it does land alongside the RAZR) for about CA$150 again with a 3-year customer agreement, or for CA$650 … Read more

Motorola released an update for its super-thin RAZR smartphone in Europe. No it won’t bring Ice Cream Sandwich to your device; rather software version 651.73.30 includes several improvements and adds a new app – Evernote (which is my personal favorite note-taking tool). Here’s what else is included in this release: General improvements to camera performance New Smart Rule Trigger – ‘Motion Detection’ Added new security features in the Google Android release Improvements on call performance and Bluetooth connectivity Localization improvements General improvements to Wi-Fi connectivity So what are you waiting … Read more

Motorola Droid 4 photos leak, we’re left hungry for Ice Cream Sandwich
Contrary to some minor previous speculation, Motorola is far from retiring its successful “Droid” line of smartphones. TechnoBuffalo obtained an upcoming Motorola Droid 4 with plenty of juicy photos. Let me just get right to the big disappointment: there’s no Ice Cream Sandwich on this guy. It’s running Android 2.3 Gingerbread, which is fine, but it’s no ICS. To stray away from jumping to conclusions, the Droid 4 TechnoBuffalo currently possesses is only a demo unit, and Motorola could still ship it with Android 4.0. As of now, however, we’re left underwhelmed. … Read more

DROID 4 caught at Best Buy Rewards Zone Promotion
Even though Verizon Wireless still hasn’t announced the DROID 4 — as far as I can tell they’ll do that from the floor of CES in Las Vegas — Best Buy has already prepared a promotional material for the device. As a matter of fact, the QWERTY keyboard-equipped smartphone got its place at the retailer’s Rewards Zone mini-site where it’s clearly presented with few other smartphones like the HTC Evo 3D and Samsung Galaxy S II. We can’t blame Best Buy for pulling this off — after all, at one … Read more

C Spire offers Motorola Milestone X2 for $99.99 with contract
Anyone still excited about the Motorola Droid X2? I know I’m not, but then again – I’m a geek and I’m definitely not in C Spire’s targeted market (plus I don’t live in the States). For those who do live in the coverage are of the operator, another Android option emerged – Milestone X2, which essentially is the same phone Verizon is offering as the Droid X2. C Spire’s “version” doesn’t have the DROID word in its name, cause that name is reserved by the Big Red carrier. Anyway, C … Read more

Deal: Costco offers Motorola DROID BIONIC for $99 with accessories included
Not exactly a “hot” deal since there are better or at least sexier devices out there, but a deal nevertheless. Costco is offering the Motorola DROID BIONIC for $99 with few accessories, including a navigation dock, additional battery charger and a desktop dock. All in all, you get way more than $100 in extra accessories alone. Although the new Motorola RAZR looks much better, the DROID BIONIC is still an awesome smartphone with specs on par with the RAZR. Speaking of specs, the BIONIC sports a 4.3-inch qHD touchscreen, dual-core … Read more

Motorola Fire with two SIM card slots launched in Brazil
Motorola is launching a dual-SIM version of its entry level Fire smartphone in Brazil. Aside from the additional SIM card slot, we don’t see any other changes under the hood. In that sense, expect the same 2.8-inch QVGA touchscreen with full QWERTY keyboard beneath, 3-megapixel camera, 600MHz processor, HSDPA and Wi-Fi connectivity, GPS, Bluetooth, memory card slot, while Android 2.3 Gingerbread is running the show with Moto’s Switch UI singing on top. In case you wonder, we’ve no idea whether this baby will be available in other markets. We also … Read more

2011 in Review: Top 10 mobile stories of the year
The last 12 months have been a wild ride, as we started the year with many of us wondering how the Xoom and PlayBook could compete against the iPad, how would HP use webOS, what the iPhone 5 would look like and if 4G LTE would really come to America in a big way. There have been a lot of pleasant and not-so-pleasant surprises in 2011 but some clear takeaways are that the smartphone revolution is in full swing, tablets are here to stay and 4G can be real. So, … Read more
