Those of you with Motorola devices that have been eagerly awaiting Android updates may have a bit more waiting to do. Motorola has updated its Android update sheet again, and it isn’t looking too good for some of you. For instance, the Atrix 2 was scheduled to be updated to Ice Cream Sandwich in the third quarter of this year which ends on Sept. 30. The latest update shows it listed as...
Siri is capable of some amazing things, but not everyone is convinced Apple's voice assistant has what it takes. So what did Motorola do? It took the Atrix 2 with Android Voice Actions (AVA) and pitted it against the iPhone 4S-exclusive Siri. The results show that Siri is… slow. Very slow, in fact. Despite the video's cheesy Fight Night presentation, the video demonstrates how each...
If you own a Motorola device, and you've been wondering if it will receive an update to Ice Cream Sandwich, you'll be happy to know the company expanded the list of those lucky devices a bit more today. While we already knew some of the devices Motorola planned to update with Ice Cream Sandwich, the company provided a fuller list of their plans this morning on the Inside Motorola blog...
The Droid X2, the Droid 3, the Photon 4G, the Droid Bionic, the Atrix II, the Droid Razr. Six phones, six months. Any one of them could be considered flagships based on their specifications, yet none have had the time to establish themselves as such. Another Motorola phone keeps popping up. Debut, debut, debut. The phones are good. No one doubts that. But I’ve yet to hear any of the...
When we got our hands-on with the Atrix 2 down at CTIA a few weeks ago, we wondered if it would live up to the Atrix name. After spending some quality time with the phone, we've made our conclusion. Does the Atrix 2 make enough improvements to compete against other budget Android devices? From a spec standpoint, the Atrix 2 more than held its own, especially at its consumer-friendly...
TechnoBuffalo already spent some quality time with the Atrix 2 during last week’s CTIA, and we came away impressed; today the device has shown up to our office and, naturally, we did an unboxing. The Atrix 2 comes packed with some fantastic internals, including Android 2.3 Gingerbread (no word on if the device will get Ice Cream Sandwich), beautiful 4.3-inch qHD display, 1GHz dual-core...
We got a nice hands-on with the just announced Atrix 2 down at CTIA and my initial feeling is that it lives up to the Atrix name. Slated as the follow up to the popular Atrix 4G, it seems that the company has learned a few lessons with their newest iteration. The Atrix 2 boasts a beautiful 4.3-inch qHD screen with Motorola’s customary four capacitive buttons at the bottom along with an...
Earlier this morning AT&T announced five new Android devices coming to their network, but no release dates were mentioned for any of them. Well, not a company to waste time, we now know that the Motorola Atrix 2 will be hitting AT&T corporate stores and online on October 16 for $99.99. The original Atrix launched just this past February, but here we are a mere eight months...
Back in January, AT&T promised to offer its customers a choice of at least 12 Android smartphones during 2011. The company has today exceeded that with an expansion to its Android lineup that sees the introduction of five new devices from Motorola, Samsung, Pantech, and ZTE. AT&T now offers 19 Android smartphones in total, with more planned to follow. So let’s take a look at...
Now we know a little more about the upcoming Motorola Atrix 2. This is my next has gotten its hands on the press photos and a few of the official specs for the handset, which will reportedly be called the Atrix 2, not Motorola Edison like some rumors had suggested. Spec-wise TIMN says the handset will have a 4.3-inch qHD display, 1GB of RAM, 8-megapixel camera with LED flash, and 8GB...
