Motorola XT907 visits FCC as a mid-range Motorola DROID RAZR handset
Back in July, we showed you a picture of a mid-range Motorola handset with the model number XT907. With the Kevlar back in place, we knew it was a Motorola DROID RAZR model. Considering that the OG Motorola DROID RAZR is the XT912 and the unannounced Motorola DROID RAZR HD is supposedly the XT926, this would make the unnamed model found in July a mid-range device.

Recently, the Motorola XT907 just happened to spend some time chewing the fat with the FCC. Thanks to the visit, we can tell you that the Motorola XT907 features Verizon's LTE bands (surprise, surprise) and NFC along with the usual EV-DO/CDMA radios that you would find in a Verizon smartphone.

To be fair, an FCC visit isn't always a signal of an impending launch, so just because this model got the thumbs up from the Fed doesn't mean it will be released soon. But with the 6th generation Apple iPhone expected to launch next month followed by the Motorola DROID RAZR HD as soon as the following month, we could see Big Red try to squeeze out the Motorola XT907 some time in the next few weeks in the late August-early September period. It might be a bit tardy, but that time period might help a lower priced mid-range Motorola DROID RAZR model command some of the back-to-school smartphone sales.
