FCC Outs Mystery Motorola Handset for AT&T

May 10, 2013, 9:18 PM   by Eric M. Zeman

Documents on the Federal Communications Commission web site provide a peek at an unannounced handset from Motorola. The XT 1058 was certified with AT&T's unique LTE bands, in addition to 802.11ac, Bluetooth 4.0, and NFC — all hallmarks of a high-end smartphone. Motorola has not released a handset for AT&T since last year's Atrix HD. The most recent batch of high-end smartphones made by Motorola were all sold by Verizon Wireless under the Droid brand. The FCC documents provide a rough sketch of the XT 1058, but no other specific details beyond the wireless certifications.

Motorola Atrix HD Doesn't Support WebTop or Lapdock

Jul 12, 2012, 3:59 PM   by Eric M. Zeman

The Motorola Atrix HD does not ship with Motorola's WebTop software and will not support Motorola's lapdock accessory. Motorola explained to Phone Scoop in an email that WebTop was excluded in order to help meet the retail price of $99 being charged by AT&T. The company "focused on the features that will deliver the greatest value for this device’s target audience," said a Motorola spokesperson. "Motorola Atrix HD was designed for people who get excited about new technology that is relevant to their lifestyle, but are also price conscious. So we’re offering the experiences and software that this target would be most interested in and still be able to make it affordable." WebTop together with the lapdock allow certain Motorola smartphones to act like a web-connected laptop, with a full Firefox browser and access to all the apps, media and features offered by the phone itself.
