Remember when Motorola was an innovator and trail-blazer in the wireless industry? Right, those days are long gone. Motorola is now looking to minimize their fiscal bleeding as they scramble to restructure their handset business back into profitable territory. Back in the day, Motorola was the first handset manufacturer to offer user-downloadable firmware updates through its [...]

It's too bad Motorola hasn't seen fit to bring the Motorola A1600 MING 2 to the US. The FCC has just checked off on the uniquely-designed A1600 MOTOMING 2 handset, which is good news to anyone looking forward to getting their hands on the Motorola clamshell. The Moto A1600 MING 2 ups the ante on its [...]

We've seen spy-shots and blurry in-the-wild photos of the 5 megapixel cameraphone from Motorola. The MotoZINE ZN5, as it's called, is due to kick up the flagging company's cameraphone offerings with a high-quality shooter to compete with the cameraphone elite from Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, and LG.

While the higher-profile, and higher-end Motorola MotoZINE ZN5 has taken up more than its share of the limelight recently, the lesser-known MotoZINE ZN200 has been patiently waiting behind the scenes for its couple minutes of fame. That fame comes in a decidedly un-glamorous spec-leak, courtesy of a recently discovered User Agent Profile. According to the cryptically [...]

Having taken up a position on the back burner, the Motorola Z8 has been thoroughly overshadowed by its more powerful, kick-sliding, bigger brother, the Motorola Z10. Unfortunately for the "Banana Phone," that means the Moto Z8 is destined to fade off into the distance. But, if Motorola has anything to say about it, the Z8 that [...]

We already know that Motorola is working on a 5 megapixel monster with a Kodak shooter.
