Motorola ELECTRIFY is US Cellular's version of the PHOTON 4G - priced at $199

It was only back in mid-July when we first heard wind about the Motorola ELECTRIFY for US Cellular, but now the regional wireless carrier is now unwrapping the goods regarding the blistering Android powered smartphone.

Today, US Cellular officially announced that the Motorola ELECTRIFY is headed to their lineup sometime later this month for the 2-year on-contract price of $199.99 after a mail-in-rebate. Needless to say, customers are going to be super excited about this one since it’s basically US Cellular’s version of the Motorola PHOTON 4G for Sprint.

Following along the same lines, the ELECTRIFY features a mighty 4.3” qHD display, 1GH dual-core processor, 8-megaixel camera with dual-LED flash, front-facing camera, HDMI-out port, 16GB of on-board memory, 1,700 mAh battery, and Android 2.3.4. Also, it’ll be packing that ever so useful kickstand in the rear to prop up the handset so you can enjoy whatever flick you’re playing on it.

Even though there isn’t an exact date given out for its release, it shouldn’t be too long from now considering we’re nearing the halfway point of the month.
