It wasn’t too long ago we told you about some Motorola RAZR variants hitting China one of which — the XT928 — was officially announced last week. Touted as “a phone inside a camera,” the XT928 (also known as the Motorola Dinara) doesn’t fit in so well with its RAZR brethren. With a blockier frame, slightly thicker body and complete absence of carbon fiber or kevlar accents, looks wise, it seems to have more in common with the Droid X than anything.
Also unlike the RAZR, the battery is now accessible through the removable cover making the device compatible with spare batteries. The XT928 also features a 4.5-inch 720p resolution screen that holds its own against the RAZR’s vivid AMOLED (and super washed out MT917 display).
Word on the street is the XT928 could be landing on AT&T but that’s not a very strong rumor. I would like to propose that this will hit Verizon as the Droid X3 complete with 4G LTE connectivity based upon absolutely nothing other than the looks of the device. Regardless of carrier, I wouldn’t mind seeing this hit stateside as Motorola has yet to release a device with a 1280×720 resolution display. For more family pics hit up the source link below.

hurray, its about time motorola introduced a new device..I mean cmon, its been almost 1 month!!!
Google owns them, now they’re back in the game.
not by the looks of the new xyboard. You’d think they want to be bench or something…..
They don’t own them yet. The deal isn’t finalized til beginning of next year.
A camera with 5 second shutter lag maybe
Why a Droid x3 when there’s a razor already?
Yeah, but they wouldn’t release a RAZR 2 so quick. Droid X2 was a few months back.. it’s time for the sequel =p
really motorola?
…Dose anyone else think Motos 4+ phones look less attractive than HTCS? I, would be all for a new Moto phone if they made one with the thickness like HTC dose …just one …comev on Moto enough with the all narrow phones…please.
Phandroid please do a hands on in the camera. I want to see how good/ bad this will be. Might suck. Hope not.
I hope this does hot AT&T, this would be nice to upgrade to from my Atrix.
Looks lame
“Touted as “a phone inside a camera,””
Not by Motorola…
If you go back and look at the article again, Quentyn misquoted Motorola saying “Motorola says that it isn’t camera inside of a phone, but rather it’s a phone inside of a camera.”
The press details actually stated
“This is no camera phone; it’s a camera inside of a phone”
Just being a stickler for the details. ;)
where is that crazy azn tattoo background from!?
This is my next phone. It had better come out on Verizon, or I will shoot myself……… with a squirt gun. =w=
Lets just hope its not as wide as the Razr….I could not reach the notification drag, but can still palm a basketball.
