Motorola Cancels Android 2.1 Updates For The CLIQ XT, Will Stay At Android 1.5

Hey, T-Mobile CLIQ XT owners — you might want to take a seat.

You know that Android 2.1 update you were promised a few months back? The one that got delayed a few times? Yeah, about that.

It’s not going to happen. → Read More

Review: Motorola CLIQ XT

It can be said that Motorola just got its groove back. The Droid is probably one of the best phones out there, followed by the Devour, and they’re constantly releasing a few good models every few weeks, which is better than some manufacturers can say. They’ve hit on a strong formula: build a nice phone, put Android on it, sell a few hundred thousand. Repeat. While the CLIQ XT isn’t Motorola’s best phone, it follows Moto’s not-so-secret recipe without shaming the chef. → Read More

Motorola Cliq XT with T-Mobile branding caught in the wild

Ever since the announcement of the Motorola Cliq XT back at Mobile World Congress, every whisper and rumor has indicated that T-Mobile US would be picking it up come March 10th. While that date is still in no way confirmed, it’s looking pretty likely that the launch can’t be too far off. A handful of shots of the Cliq XT rocking T-Mobile’s logos have just made their way to the guys over at AndroidCentral, indicating that it’s made its way into the hands of someone not under 2 tons of Non-disclosure agreements — such as a store manager or inventory handler.

The Cliq XT/Quench drops, brings Android 1.5 in tow

Motorola is keeping the Android party rocking with the Cliq XT — or Quench in Euroland. The handset doesn’t bring anything we haven’t seen before including the aging Android 1.5 release along with Motorola’s social media-centric MOTOBLUR home screen replacement. A respectable 3.1-inch 320 x 480 occupies the front, while a 5.0 MP cam with LED flash is housed on the backside. Wi-Fi, HSDPA, A-GPS rounds out the rest of the notable specs on the otherwise boring phone. → Read More
