UPDATED: Pictures of mysterious Motorola Android phone appear; it's a fake
A person commenting on a story on BGR has put himself in the center of a story himself. Included with his comments were pictures and specs of a unknown Motorola Android device. With its rounded edges, sleek black design and a sizable 3.8 inch screen, this model looks totally unlike the DROID and has a more..uh...iPhonesque look about it. Besides the display, we can also tell you that there is an 800MHz processor under the hood and an 8MP camera with AF and dual LED flash. As soon as more news on this model comes in, you'll be the first to know. So what do you think?

source: BGR

UPDATE:

Thank you for your comments on the matter! We took a closer look at the pictures now and have to agree that this is a fake. What a shame, it could've been a nice handset...

Looks like a non-keyboard version of Droid. Maybe I'm going blind but it's hard to say if that says 5, 6 or 8 MP Camera on back. It could be just the way it's written. I dunno. Either way this looks like a touch screen only version of the same phone. Maybe with Motoblur this time around? Let's see.

I hope that it's not with Moboblur...only because Motoblur is only compatible with 1.5...kind of a let down considering what comes with 2.0; or the up and coming 2.1. I would like a Droid phone w/o the qwerty keyboard.

pretty sure its a 6

It's a 5.0mp. I took the photo and cleaned it up a bit.

25. oddmanout posted on 03 Dec 2009, 16:55

read the article... its an 8mp cam with auto focus and dual led flash.

29. sinfulta posted on 03 Dec 2009, 18:02

Oddmanout, Yeah, but now that we know this is a photoshop from the GSM Omnia 2 backing. It's clear it's 5MP's and it's clear that this is a fake. Plus... we've enver seen Motorola use that kind of Font typing on there phones, It's clearly the same font used on most if not all current Samsungs.

Looks like a Droid without a slide out keybord.. Sweet

14. techie123 posted on 03 Dec 2009, 14:13

I totally agree!

27. oddmanout posted on 03 Dec 2009, 17:02

Lol. does anyone besides me read the article? Its says it looks nothing like the droid and its kind of true... the only similarities are the hardware buttons and placement of the logo. and to be truthful, this actually looks a lot better than the iphone.

Mayhaps we're looking at the rumored Passion/Dragon/Thingy. lol It'd be cool to know which radio is under the hood of that pretty little beast.

the passion is HTC

15. techie123 posted on 03 Dec 2009, 14:18

Don't be so cynical. Let me believe this phone is for real!

8. crappypunk posted on 03 Dec 2009, 13:44

12. tshow84 posted on 03 Dec 2009, 13:56
