Motorola Droid 4 adds a 5-line QWERTY keypad to the new RAZR
Seemingly official renders of an as-yet-unheard-of Motorola Droid 4 have surfaced, gifting us with a glimpse of what Motorola might have up its sleeve for a December launch for Verizon Wireless, a popular U.S. carrier.
The blog Droid Life managed to pick up the renders, and boy does the Droid 4 look good. The Droid 3, released back in July, has been a relatively popular device in the States, but unfortunately, as with most Droid offerings, it never made it to most international shores, including India.
With the Motorola RAZR a.k.a Droid RAZR having been launched in India however, just a short while after its U.S. launch, we might not be too unreasonable in hoping that Motorola brings the Droid 4 to India in some form, with or without 4G connectivity. Perhaps it will be called the RAZR Pro?
Looking at the images below, it is easy to see why the device might actually turn out to be called a variant of the RAZR outside of the U.S., they are essentially identical devices, with a very similar design, except that the Droid 4 is thicker – owing to its massive horizontal sliding 5-row QWERTY keyboard of course – and, it has a smaller display.
Specifications for the Android 2.3 Gingerbread-based Motorola Droid 4 include a 1.2GHz dual-core Cortex A9 CPU with a PowerVR SGX540 GPU, on the TI OMAP 4430 chipset. It has a 4.0-inch qHD display, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, and a 1,785 mAh battery to run it all.
So, those of you who are seriously excited about the RAZR, and not just because of its slimness, might want to wait a bit on the off chance the Droid 4 gets a global edition.
