Rendered shot of the Motorola Dinara leaks out possibly indicating it's the ATRIX 3 for AT&T

The first time we heard about the Motorola “Dinara,” it was nearly a year ago when it was rumored to be the successor to Motorola’s first 4G LTE smartphone – the DROID BIONIC for Verizon Wireless. However, today brings forth some additional news surrounding the mysterious Android powered smartphone, but this time around, it looks as though it’s heading to AT&T’s lineup.

Dubbed as the Motorola Dinara in the meantime, it’s believed that the handset in question is prepping to be the successor to the Motorola ATRIX 2 (ATRIX 3 possibly?) – though, it’s unknown at this point as to which model name it’ll be attached with. Nevertheless, this is a totally new “Dinara” handset that’s gearing to make a name for itself.

If you look closely at the leaked rendered image, the date on the phone is July 26th, which could hint to its possible release date with the carrier. Although specs are still in question in regards to this device, it’ll more than likely offer support for AT&T’s 4G LTE network – much like most of the top-shelf smartphones of late from the carrier. Lastly, we’re sure that everyone would be enamored to see this be graced with a newer version of Android, but it doesn’t seem likely to happen, as it’s boasting some variant of MOTOBLUR.

Your opinion. I think it looks great except for that AT&T logo at the bottom.

I'm not sure if this would suite all my needs, after all, when I get hungry all I have to do is crack an egg on my Atrix 4G. The phone gets so hot I could probably fully cook an egg in 10min. But anyway, this looks pretty cool, but since it's Motorola, they'll screw the phone up with MotoBlur. :-P

with google owning moto, I believe it will go away - or you can just do it yourself.

Blur looks a lot better after the newest update. Don't knock it until you try it...

I guess that it'll be powered by TI OMAP 4470. 1.5 Ghz dual-core A9 GPU PowerVR SGX 544 Mp1 LTE

the 4470 is a possibility but higher clocked at 1.8GHz like the Razr HD is rumored to be.

About time Moto rumors started flowing. Looking forward to see the new webtop software with updated/new features.

Does look nice. I'm looking forward to seeing ICS on top of their UI.

Only thing that really stands out to me is the clock/weather/data use widget. That looks fairly cool. Also, it isn't MotoBlur any more, it's Moto's UI.

John, what are you smoking? That rendered phone is clearly running ICS.

Orly?! Look at the google search bar. It's transparent. ONLY ICS has that search bar. Look at the bottom where the navigation keys are. NOTICE HOW IT'S ON THE SCREEN. ICS is the only OS that offers that other than Honeycomb but that is tablet only. Also, the button to the app drawer is from ICS. Get your eyes checked bud.

Please hurry up and release the phone. It’ll probably come out in July so as not to compete with the release of the SGS III in June or the iPhone 11 or whatever they'll call it in September, either way... RELEASE IT PLEASE!!! Or at least officially announce it.

If I were to jump on Android, it would be from Samsung, Sony, or Moto. Outside of the original Atrix, Moto hasn't really produced a great Android for AT&T. Be wonderful to see this be that handset.

totally agreed - moto has the ability, but their lineup is kind of 'meh' nowadays. Maybe, we will see a phablet from moto soon.

What I'm hoping for: 4.3-4.7" 720p s-lcd2 screen, 1.5 ghz s4 processor, 1-2gb RAM, 32gb on board storage, 13 mp camera w/ 2mp front, 2500+ mah battery, same build quality as RAZR (Kevlar back, screen, etc.), 4G LTE, and use the new Moto ICS which looks pretty decent compared to most. If they can put all that in and keep it under 9mm like how they did with RAZR MAXX this would be number one on my phone list. It is between this, SGS3, htc one x, new iPhone, and whatever WP8 Nokia and samsung bring to AT&T. Gonna be a great year for decisions.

When is Motorola going to start putting the Maxx batter inside other phones besides the Razor? That's all I want to know about up coming phones by Motorola.

2GB RAM and quad core should be the standard from here on out. Manufacturers must concentrate on improving battery life now that Android is number one on the market. A more integrated voice command app with a higher intelligence would help, too, although, I am not sure how many users actually use a voice command program. Do not put out the social crap on the phones - let the user do that. Battery not able to pull out is no big deal anymore to me, now that I have owned a DOID RAZR, but please, allow the user a chance to expand memory with a microSD card. This phone depicted is kind of boring, in looks, to be honest - reminds of the stale lineup that Verizon has - but, I am not sure how much more different a phone can look nowadays. I hope AT&T gets the RAZR soon with the same corned look that the original has.
