An image of a new Android-powered Motorola handset for Sprint has supposedly been leaked. The device, which could be a follow-up to the Motorola XPRT, packs a full QWERTY keyboard and a rounded form factor that reminds us much more of a BlackBerry than any Android device we’ve seen to date. In fact, it reminds us a little too much of the Curve and the authenticity of the image has definitely not been confirmed. Either way, rumor has it the phone will run Android 2.3 Gingerbread and may offer support for Sprint’s 4G WiMAX network. We’re definitely digging the compact form factor of the device, so hopefully this is something that comes to fruition.

    This isn’t a leaked a phone, I saw a commercial for it the other day. It’s the same phone as the Droid Pro on Verizon. It’s just going to be called the Motorola Xprt.

      The XPRT has been out. This is new. The only way to tell from this photo is the keyboard itself. The most distinguishable change is the curved ends.

      And you can go to Motorola’s website and do a side-by-side comparison.

    Silly RIM…people are taking what you did well and building off what you thought people didnt desire in that form factor…

    If it packs 4G, a Front Cam and Gingerbread 2.3.4 people may very well have a formidable keyboard option with Android not named Samsung. Either way…looks good. I know people bitch and moan about Motorola and Bootloaders…but after seing Photon Specs and now this… something tells me Motorola is coming back to Sprint with a Vengance.
