Are QWERTY smartphones making a comeback? Definitely not, but those few hangers-on who miss tapping on physical keypads will seemingly have a nice new option from Verizon Wireless in the coming months. A user on the Chinese social networking site Sina Weibo has posted several photos of what is claimed to be the upcoming Motorola Droid 5. And yes, it looks exactly like the Droid 4, Droid 3, Droid 2 and original Droid. Rumored specs include a screen that measures between 4.3 and 4.5 inches diagonally, water- and dust-resistance, NFC, wireless charging support and a laser-cut five-row keyboard. With the Droid 4 out of stock for quite some time on Verizon’s website, the new Droid 5 could debut sometime soon. The leaked photos follow below.
