Motorola Devour

Verizon hasn’t given up on the Motorola Devour yet. Either that or they are trying to clear their inventory shelves of in-stock units quickly to the tune of some new two-year activations. Either way you can snag the Devour free right now as part of an online exclusive when you sign up for a new [...]

Just as leaked documents suggested earlier in the week, Verizon has officially announced the arrival of pre-paid data plans for their 3G devices, including BlackBerry and Android smartphones. The new deal provides unlimited data at a contract-free rate of $30 per month. For feature phones they are also making available a $10/25 MB per month [...]

Motorola – one of the better manufacturers when it comes to transparency in their upgrade plans – has once again updated their chart to reflect the latest ETA on upgrades for several of their phone. We’re still waiting for Eclair to hit the CLIQ and CLIQ XT, but it shouldn’t be a long wait now [...]

Verizon must be in an update happy mood as of late, first gracing us with Froyo on the Motorola Droid and now following up with an update to the Motorola Devour. Software version CALAND_X_01.15.10 won’t bring the Devour to anything 2.1 or higher, but it will provide enhancements and improvements to voice-mail, V Cast video [...]

It’s been a long time coming (the device has been out since March) but Motorola Devour users can now finally say they’ve gotten the ability to root their phones. The exploit was found when some eagle-eyed hackers took what they learned from the Droid X’s root method and set out to finally crack the now-dated [...]

Uh-oh. Those dreaded “end-of-life” rumors are starting back up again. This time, the original Motorola Droid and Motorola’s forgotten Devour might be on that list of devices headed out of the mill. DroidForums caught wind of an internal screen showing both of the devices as “limited” or with “no remaining shipments” to be had from [...]

Over the weekend, it appears that Motorola has updated their chart outlining upgrades for several of their Android-based phones. Most phones are still only planned to be receiving Android 2.1 (Motorola Droid’s rollout has finished, while the Milestone is still currently being rolled out in stages for other international markets). For the Motorola Backflip, they’re [...]

Yesterday, we reported that the Motorola Devour for Verizon Wireless could be seeing an update within the week. This morning, one of our readers (thanks, Chris!) informed us that he received the now confirmed update for his phone late last night. The update took just a few minutes to download and apply, and it should [...]

It’s easy to forget about Verizon’s latest phone with all of the fuss about their upcoming Droid Incredible (HTC Incredible if you aren’t used to the new name, yet). Android Central leaked a flier which shows that an update for the Motorola Devour is on its way. This isn’t the big 2.1 update we’re looking [...]

The marriage between NFL wide receiver Chad Ochocinco and Motorola is a very unlikely one. Soon after the announcement of their Cliq (Get it? No? It was worth a shot.), we learned that the two would move forward in promoting MOTOBLUR – the custom Android UI that Motorola is using to set themselves apart and [...]

Last month we learned that Verizon Wireless was officially partnering with Skype to bring an unprecedented feature set to mobile phone users in America. Exactly what that would entail? We weren’t told – we were just told some sort of integration would make it all worthwhile and it wasn’t hard to guess the options. Now [...]

Until I held the Motorola Devour in my hands, I assumed it would be a lighter, more plasticky version of the Motorola Droid with weaker specs but a better keyboard. As you’ll learn in this review, my perception gradually quickly changed. It’s difficult to review the Devour on it’s own merits when it has the [...]

I’m writing this post from the Motorola Devour. To write a review of worthwhile substance you have to know the subject matter and in this instance I get a lot of hands on time with the keyboard. I was expecting a lot out of this keyboard and at first was a bit disappointed but there [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, I know have the Motorola Devour in my possession. It’s Verizon’s 3rd Android Phone and launches at BestBuy February 25th followed by VZW retail stores in March. Although its tech specs don’t quite match the Droid or Droid Eris in terms of pure horse power, I’m pretty excited about this phone if [...]

Well there has been much talk and news in recent weeks leading up to the release of the new Motorola Devour in March. It will hit Verizon with pricing of $150 after a $100 mail-in rebate. As with all Verizon smartphones, you will need a  Nationwide Talk plan  with $30 unlimited data package. Head on [...]

Nothing screams device launch like oversized promotional displays and that’s exactly what we’re seeing from the Motorola Devour today. An anonymous tipster sent us the following picture of a larger-than-life Motorola Devour that would be more suitable for the giant in Jack And The Beanstalk: In true Phandroid form, the picture above was snapped with [...]

Rick Osterloh is the VP of Android Software & MOTOBLUR Services at Motorola and a few days ago he took some time to discuss the device and give a tour of the specs and software.He also shows the Devour Wi-Fi connection while a computer is connected, browsing your phone’s contents using the MOTO Phone Portal. [...]

You should have trusted us when we told you the Motorola Devour would be available at BestBuy. If you didn’t before, you will now – the woodworks have churned out a picture of the price tag: And a case: And how you’ll feel when you rip open your Devour: With the Motorola Devour headed to [...]

We had heard before that the Motorola Devour would be available in “select channels” starting February 25th but weren’t exactly sure what that meant. Now we are. Best Buy Mobile has just issued a press release announcing the availability of the Motorola Devour on February 25th with the pre-order starting February 16th. Oh yeah, today [...]

BGR has brought us some of the latest leaks from Verizon with some internal documentation that shows a launch to all channels in March. For those of you who haven’t heard or seen the specs, here ya go: Slide-Out QWERTY Keyboard 3.1" HVGA, 320 x 480, 65K colors Bluetooth 3.0 Megapixel camera Android 1.6 with [...]
