Is This Motorola's First Intel-powered ICS Phone?
Android 4.0, meet Atom.
There were quite a few eye-catching products at CES (Samsung's eye-catching OLED TV among them), but one of the most talked about announcements was Intel's unveiling of the Lenovo K800, the first Medfield-based smartphone. Today, we're getting a peek at another Intel-based phone, this one from Motorola.
Pocket-Now claims to have gotten hold of photos and details of Motorola's first Ice Cream Sandwich phone. Though that in itself is interesting, the fact that it's also said to be Atom-based is what caught our eye. Pocket-Now doesn't name a source for these photos, but the company says it will have a new version of Motorola's MotoBlur UI, as well as a high-end camera that offers instant-on capabilities and 15 fps burst capture.
Sadly, Pocket-Now's source didn't provide any more juicy details, so that's our lot for now. However, with Mobile World Congress just over a week away, we're expecting to see this device and others like it in more official circumstances very, very soon.

I'm worried about the battery life of any phone that isn't the Droid Razr Maxx. THAT, should be the new standard.
Droid Razr Maxx should be the new standard... dam my samsung infuse.... battery is everything after u make it pass dual core.. i like to see 3 days my self..
battery life is pretty big, but wasn't intel supposed to have some good power features in the works for mobile solutions, i rememebr moorestown was looking promising
The phone us UGLY. Sorry but all the gray is not appealing at all.
To be honest it looks very very fat on the side. I have a feeling this is another intel "experiment" like their other 2 cellphone chips that never got off the ground.

I ruined my Evo3d for Battery Life, Picked up a Seidio 4000 mAh battery to replace the 1700ish mAh stock battery and run with all radios except Wifi for 3 days 20 hours! (3G/4G/GPS/Bluetooth) Its bulky and i cannot put a protection cover on it now but totally worth it!
I love my RAZR Maxx's battery life, but wish it was going to get an ICS update sometime WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS!!!!! ...but that's not going to happen, so I'm stuck using Go Launcher and dealing with it @#$%! bugginess.
New moto blur for 4.0 look nice with notifications on icons hope motorola will give same ics update for other phones
