Meeee too Aarongzmn! And no accidental button presses which drove me nuts with capacitive buttons.

i wish android (hopefully ios as well) would embrace buttonless with more meego-like ways… i think all the intuitive swiping like on meego is smoother, easier, and just cooler than having the row of buttons allong the bottom… because at the moment they do little more than go away capacitative buttons

Well it doesn't really save that much screen size now because they are still putting it a little upwards of where the capacitive buttons use to be. Like for instance, on this phone rendering here, the capacitive buttons would have been on that black bar below the screen, I would imagine. HOWEVER, and this is a big however, I can see the future being edge-to-edge screens which will save screen space and save space for the overall phone design. So, in the future, you would have a 4.7 inch screen size phone fit into a 4.5 inch or less form factor.

Was it Medfield or Oakfield that is trying to get on par with A15 designs? I cant keep up anymore.. lol. I guess we will find out soon enough if my worries about intel in the mobile space were justified or not.

Maybe it's an indication that the app is running. On my old Nokia Symbian phone, an app icon with a little symbol beside it denotes that the app is running.

also the by the looks it seems to have a beefy battery and looks like a razr max in terms of thickness while not being too wide! more phone with Max's battery would be heavily welcome

-720p screen
-8mp+ cam
-not too deep skin
-nice new widgets and features

if all become true this could be an awesome phone

11. KingKurogiii posted on 13 Feb 2012, 21:32 2 0

exactly. i would actually use that clock widget. it's very similar to the one on Moto's slightly skinned version of Honeycomb similar to what they've done here on ICS that i love so much.

17. protozeloz posted on 13 Feb 2012, 21:51 0 0

I've said with ICS they can worry less about changing some things and worry more about adding more cool features and nice looking stuff to it, Google stepped their game on manufacturers should do the same, and we wend with better looking phones and cool new features to play and brag about :P

42. mordimiz posted on 15 Feb 2012, 10:03 0 0

does any one know what that widget is called and if there is a variant in the market?

43. KingKurogiii posted on 15 Feb 2012, 10:23 0 0

it's a Motorola Widget. xD

46. mordimiz posted on 15 Feb 2012, 11:57 0 0

Are you kidding this phone is ugly. Ugly ugly ugly ugly ugly. Look at Acer cloud mobile for a good looking device. UI is pretty cartoonish to.

25. Mimsyborogove923 posted on 14 Feb 2012, 02:15 0 0

I don't think I would use quite so many uglies, but I largely agree. I really don't understand what the manufacturers are thinking with these fracking silly looking icons(Touchwiz=eww). I've said it all over the web and I'll say it again, ADULTS buy these phones, not CHILDREN. So please, design accordingly. I think it's that they're trying to look like iOS with the square icons, which is lame. If I wanted iOS I would buy an iPhone damnit. GIVE ME PURE ANDROID!

26. KingKurogiii posted on 14 Feb 2012, 02:29 0 0

so what do "Adult" icons look like I wonder? xD

I liked Moto's Icons more before they changed them with 2.3.6.

the icons in this rendering is what is being used in 2.3.6 on the Razr and the 4 except without the notification counters.

the majority of people are drawn to the colorful look. Most regular customers really love how Touchwiz pops from the screen on a super amoled display. They are just taking a page from samsung on this one, which considering samsung's wide lead might not be a bad idea.

I agree this phone is freaking ugly but I like the UI though.

18. KingKurogiii posted on 13 Feb 2012, 21:58 0 0

i agree and that would look nice.
as long as it's not done by cheap chrome accents. i've had bad experiences with LG Dares that have cheap chrome accents. i've stayed away from chrome looks ever since. >>

45. remixfa posted on 15 Feb 2012, 11:40 1 0

oh, that chrome paint? it comes off almost every phone that has it. super annoying.

47. KingKurogiii posted on 15 Feb 2012, 12:37 0 0

yeah that! I hate that stuff! xP

there simply wasn't enough room for the ports anywhere else on the handset and I don't mind it. if anything it helps with the strain on my chargers when I'm using and charging my phone at the same time.
