Slimmer. Stronger. Smarter: Motorola Mobility Canada and Bell announce MOTOROLA ATRIX™ HD LTE

The Ultimate Fusion of Beauty and Brains, in HD

TORONTO, July 10, 2012 – You’ve got style and smarts, and expect nothing less from your smartphone. Motorola Mobility Canada Ltd. and Bell today announce the MOTOROLA ATRIX™ HD LTE superphone. Available exclusively to Bell Mobility customers this summer, the exciting Motorola ATRIX HD LTE has head-turning looks and the brains to get you through your busy day.

You expect brilliance and ATRIX HD LTE brings it. The 4.5-inch ColourBoost™ display is the highest resolution smartphone display on the market supporting a wide range of more vibrant colours. More pixels mean greater detail and crisper, clearer images that look true to life – whether you’re viewing exclusive Bell Mobile TV content or movies downloaded from Google Play™. And because you need enough power to fuel everything you demand of your smartphone, ATRIX HD LTE is powered by a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor compatible with Bell’s world-leading 4G LTE network.

Remarkably thin while not sacrificing strength, ATRIX HD LTE takes innovation one step further. Its svelte 8.4mm frame is made strong with DuPont™ Kevlar® fiber, a scratch-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass display and a high-tech, invisible nano-coating that acts as a splash guard and shields against the unexpected splash.

Strong and smart, ATRIX HD LTE has SMARTACTIONSTM, a fully integrated, free application that intelligently automates everyday tasks and suggests ways to personalize your smartphone. Based on selections you make, SMARTACTIONS optimizes your phone’s performance by silencing the device during meetings (but lets VIP calls through), extending battery life when it is low, announcing incoming texts and calls as well as auto-replying when you are driving so you can focus on the road. That’s smart. Very smart.

“Motorola ATRIX HD LTE offers a smarter smartphone experience,” says David Petrou, sales director, Motorola Mobility Canada. “It delivers shortcuts and convenience with SMARTACTIONS – even extending your battery life so you’re never out of power when it matters most.”

If that isn’t enough to convince you, Motorola ATRIX HD LTE has more than a few other features to boast about:

• Latest version of Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich
• A front-facing camera for Google+ Hangouts video chats
• A rear-facing 8 megapixel camera to capture every single moment. Plus, those photos can automatically be uploaded to a private album on Google+TM so you don’t have to worry about accidentally deleting images
• Captures video in 1080p HD at 30 frames per second, which means you get super smooth playback
• Features Mirror Mode when connected with an HDMI cable (sold separately) to view images, files and movies on a larger screen
• WiFi Direct for easy transfer of files directly between two devices (without needing a wireless access point)

Access to over 600,000 apps and games on Google Play, as well as millions of books and thousands of movies and TV shows

Although the screen is only 4.5", the phone is big if you look at the dimensions (133.5 x 69.9 x 8.4 mm). It is slightly smaller than the Galaxy S3 4.8" (136.6 x 70.6 x 8.6 mm) and almost the same like the HTC One X 4.7" (134.4 x 69.9 x 8.9 mm). I would say the Atrix HD starts with too much bulk around it. But it all depends on the price in the end.

thats interesting because thats the only place that says it, I've watched reviews looked on websites like phonearena and androidcentral and all sorts of places and most say either that Moto and AT&T wont say if its an S4 or they just say its a 1.5 ghz dual core processor so GSMarena may be mistaken as they have been in the past, wouldn't surprise me if it was an S3 seeing as the Sony Xperia Ion uses it and the new Sony Xperia SL will be using an S3 clocked at 1.7 ghz dual core...
