Motorola's latest Android Smartphone - Motoroi

Wolochatiuk didn’t name the Motoroi’s UK launch date, though promised that the smartphone will hit North America in March.

Motoroi has a 3.7in touchscreen display, can be used as a 720p camcorder and has an HDMI port for connection to an HD TV. The phone supports 32GB and lower-capacity memory cards.

It’s possible that Motoroi’s name and specifications may change prior to any UK launch. The phone currently supports a terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting service for use solely in Korea, for example. ®
