The smartphone of the future is coming on February 22. Motorola Atrix 4G twin-core handset will formally launch on AT&T next Tuesday, based on a tweet from Motorola Mobility's official Twitter account. The Android-primarily based machine is a vital landmark, as a result of the Atrix 4G can function as an everyday smartphone or might be hooked as much as a keyboard and monitor for a desktop PC-like experience. However whereas the gadget is certainly the smartphone to look at in 2011 the first-era Atrix 4G has some critical downsides for the common user.

Winner of quite a few awards from the latest Shopper Electronics Show (CES), the Motorola Atrix 4G is billed as one among - if not - probably the most powerful smartphones available. It is because it features a dual-core processor, with every core operating at 1GHz - thus delivering as much as 2GHz of processing power. The phone additionally boasts 1GB of RAM, which is about twice the system reminiscence in comparison with different smartphones.

You can sense this speed when opening and operating apps, surfing the Net, and for when you're docking the smartphone into one of the equipment to use on larger screens. We launched the identical web site at the identical time on both the Motorola Atrix 4G and the new Nexus S, and the Atrix was much quicker at loading the location (and sure, we all know one is on AT&T and the opposite on T-Cellular). Apparently, each Android smartphones launched a sport (Samurai II) at the very same time and were equally as clean in the performance department.

The Atrix 4G contains a four-inch touchscreen - and "the world's first qHD show," says Motorola - delivering a resolution of 960 x 540 pixels with 24-bit color and a 16:9 aspect ratio. Certainly the colour and distinction is spectacular, but the shiny display screen has a whole lot of glare when used exterior (worse than the Nexus S).

Other features embody dual cameras (including the flexibility to document 720p HD), 16GB of inner memory (with support for as much as 32GB microSD playing cards) and integrated Wi-Fi N (2.4GHz and 5.0GHz).One fascinating and distinguishing attribute is the integrated fingerprint reader on the again of the smartphone. Along with (or as a substitute of) making a PIN to unlock your telephone, you can swipe your left or right forefinger on the black energy button. Set up takes about minutes and it labored flawlessly after that. This optional biometrics safety function must be a welcome addition for cell executives carrying round sensitive company data.

Battery life was respectable however not extraordinary, with the battery life indicator showing just below one-third of power left on the end of every day - with reasonable use. Whereas it's highly effective and secure, the Motorola Atrix 4G gained't blow you away as a smartphone. It's definitely nearly as good as another Android devices on the market, if not a tad better in most departments - nevertheless it's what you are able to do with it that makes it stand out from the crowd. That's, the accessories make the telephone a lot more compelling.

It's expensive, however the LapDock worked like a attraction, and must be an appealing various to vacationers who want a lightweight laptop computer whereas on the road. The HD Multimedia Dock also worked properly for consuming media, however a couple of different smartphones immediately have an HDMI output choice for a television.
