It’s a happy day if you own either a Motorola Droid Bionic or a Motorola Xoom with 4G LTE connectivity.

Verizon’s Motorola Droid Xyboard tablets get global roaming abilities via software update
Verizon’s recently launched oddly-named Motorola-made tablet duo, the Droid Xyboard 10.1 and the Droid Xyboard 8.2, have received a software update.

Verizon rolls out software updates for Motorola Droid Razr and Razr Maxx
Verizon Wireless has decided to roll out software updates to its two Razr Droids – the original Motorola Droid Razr, and the new Motorola Droid Razr Maxx.

AT&T Motorola Atrix 2 gets a software update, many bug fixes and performance enhancements
The Motorola Atrix 2 for AT&T is in the process of receiving a software update which unfortunately isn’t Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. In fact, Moto hasn’t even announced whether the Atrix 2 will get updated to the latest version of the OS yet. We’re hoping it will be, but the update will clearly come [...]
Verizon Motorola Droid 4 will become available on February 10, new leak claims
Yesterday we heard that the Motorola Droid 4 would finally launch at Verizon on February 9. That was unofficial, of course, as for some reason Big Red insists on not making such details public in most cases right up until a couple of days or so before the release date. Today we get a leaked [...]

Amazon has done it again, offering yet another great smartphone sale for a limited time. This time, it’s everything the retailer has on offer with AT&T contracts, and you can find most smartphones are just $0.01 (which seems to be Amazon’s odd version of free). This offer will be available until February 14 at 11:59 [...]
Motorola Defy Mini approved by the FCC (with AT&T friendly 3G bands)
Earlier this month, when Motorola officially introduced the Defy Mini XT320, it said that the handset would be launched in Europe, Latin America, and China. So, no mention of North America. However, the Defy Mini has been approved by the FCC today, with WCDMA 850 and 1900 connectivity in tow – hence it may be [...]
Motorola RAZR Developer Edition with unlockable bootloader now up for pre-order in Europe for €499
About one year ago we first heard that Motorola was working on ways to let developers meddle with their Moto phones (and unlock their bootloaders), while still providing the average Joe with unlocked bootloader phones for some reason. And here we are. One year has passed, and during this time Motorola has done nothing in [...]

Two of the top Android smartphones of the moment have seen important discounts.

First off, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, the latest ‘pure Google’ phone can now be [...]
Verizon’s Motorola Droid Razr Maxx available now. Droid 4 to cost $199?
Just as expected, today Verizon has launched the new Motorola Droid Razr Maxx, which is basically a Droid Razr with a larger battery (3,300 mAh) – this makes the handset slightly thicker (9mm), but at the same time allows it to provide a talk-time of 21 hours on a single charge.

Discounted by Sprint to $99.99 a couple of weeks ago, the Motorola Photon 4G is now even cheaper at Best Buy.

It’s official: Verizon’s Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX will be available on January 26 for $299.99
Verizon’s extended-battery Motorola Droid RAZR, the aptly called RAZR MAXX, was unveiled earlier this month, perhaps causing owners of the original device to be just a little bit upset. Anyway, the new and improved RAZR (and this time apparently actually lasting through a day of use) has been rumored to go on sale on January [...]
