Motorola Z10 Cell Phone – Less Razr, More Rizr


Having referred to Motorola’s Moto U9 Touch Sensitive Cell Phone in a couple of days ago and speculating whether this new Motorola cell phone with a distinct emphasis on media player functionality could possibly repeat the success the company have seen with its Razr model news has just reached us of another new model, known as the Rizr Z10, that’s rather more Razr like than the U9 but, far from being a mere development of the Razr series, serves very much as a new model in its own right.

Details at the time of writing are decidedly sparse, however what is known is that, unlike the Razr, the Motorola Rizr Z10 is not of clamshell design but, rather, is a slider phone which comes with an integral 3.2 megapixel camera with 30 frames per second recording functionality.

We can also confirm that the UIQ 3.1 powered Rizr Z10 sports a 2.2 inch 320 x 240 resolution, 16M colour screen – not a touchscreen - and is a 3G device.

Apparently due to be released in December for around €400 the bad news is that, if you live outside Europe and fancy getting your hands on one, the Rizr Z10 is rumoured to be made available in this region only – though we are presently unable to confirm this.

We are also unable to confirm that Motorola’s next model will be known as the Rozr and will feature a prominent blue flashing light and a series of ring tones that will make law breakers extremely nervous (we suspect that this attempt at humour won’t translate at all well for our non UK based readers).
