Motorola Shadow Emerges! It seems like only hours ago that a leaked shot of the yet-to-be-announced Motorola Shadow appeared, yet here we are with another shot of the possible successor to the Droid.
This time around there is no madcap story accompanying the leak, but this is the first shot of the device that hasn’t been directly front-facing that means you can clearly see the HDMI connector on the side there, so at least that’s something new and interesting.
According to Mobile Crunch, this Shadow looks nothing like the totally rad-render that appeared back in April, no slide out keyboard proves this, so that’s a bit disappointing. Maybe April’s render will appear as something other than the Shadow.
Here’s something a little shady, though: the leak claimed that the device had a 4.3″ screen, 16 gigs of internal storage, Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, and an 8MP camera. Today’s leak, however, claims a 4.1″ screen, 8 gigs internal storage, a Texas Instruments OMAP 3630 (720MHz ARM Cortex A8) processor, along with the same 8MP camera. Well not to highlight that these are just leaks. However we really need to wait for any official declaration.
Also posted by a forum member over at Howard Forums, we were able to get a pretty clear side-shot of the device lying flat on its back and a few more details found their way onto the table, too. For starters, he claims that the device is not heavier than the original Motorola Droid (this proves it won’t have a slide-out QWERTY keyboard).
There’s something about Verizon and their upcoming phones that just can’t keep themselves under wraps. But whatever, we grabbed something to make good news of. Stay tuned for its updates.
