new motrola android phone on virgin mobile.

Well i was wondering the inter-webs when i came across this

New "unamed" Motorola Android Phone coming to Virgin Mobile USA | Today's Cell Phone

In my opinion it looks like a Photoshopped droid relative.

And this is a "possible android power 1ghz processor phone" that was in one of virgin mobiles surveys before, link is old just kinda strange with this new unnamed Motorola phone

Virgin Mobile teases 4.1-inch Android phone with Snapdragon in survey -- Engadget Mobile

I am marking it as rumor for now. curious about what you think. so comment

If it can support flash and play games more smoothly than my Optimus V, then I might be interested.

I am not sure that I would want a larger screen though. I like a 3.5" screen...

I currently own the Virgin USA Intercept. It was my first Android phone and I fell in love with it, but as time has gone on it's shortcomings have become more and more apparent. I would really have liked to see Virgin go with an HTC model or a more capable Samsung as I'm not a fan of Motorola, but if its packing a 1G processor with dedicated GPU Im sold. Who knows when Virgin will get another phone?

Anyone else hear anything about this? I've heard rumors of motorola phones mostly. But are there even any cdma motorola phones out there?

Yeah, Verizon has them. But no Sprint Moto's, no.

I can tell you this from my experience. Once you have a 4" or 4.3' screen, you'll never want to go back to anything smaller. I know I never will, there is so much real estate on my EVO. Holding a phone now with a smaller screen than that just doesn't feel right anymore. It was kinda funny...I was going through some old stuff the other day that I had found in my closet and wouldn't you know it. There it was...my little Palm Centro. It took my back for a second, I started kinda chuckling to myself about the 3 years of love and hate I had with it. I held it up to my EVO and really couldn't believe the difference in the two. It can sit inside my phones screen....lol. Anyway...before I start rambling. I would definitely suggest getting the bigger phone, but be careful. Like I said...once you get used to having a screen that big, anything smaller just doesn't feel right. maybe it's just me.

I would love to see a phone like this on virgin mobile, but I don't think it'll happen. Doesn't virgin get hand-me-down sprint phones these days? No motos on sprint = no motos on virgin. It looks like that unless sprint goes outside the current lineup, we'll probably get stuck with MAYBE the sanyo zio. Their next cheapest androids are the epic and evo shift, neither of which I can see coming to virgin mobile anytime soon. Although the evo shift did kinda bomb, so maybe... wouldn't have 4g though.

If the Evo shift came to virgin mobile that would be awesome..i had the phone for sprint for a little bit and I liked it a lot, I just didn't want to pay that much for it. Lol.

Yeah it would be nice, but seeing as how they're still sprint's high end phones, probably wont happen. I have been wrong before though.

It would be nice to have a Nexus S on Virgin. Don't know if I would buy it (almost $500) but it would be nice to have options.

 

[bjones72751]

I'd honestly be perfectly happy if I could get an Droid 1 with vm. At least they have an arm7 CPU, good gpu, and high resolution. Plus they can usually oc to 1ghz easy.

It's on their facebook page

They posted on their facebook page that they will be adding a Motorola Triumph to their lineup. No prices, retailers or actual release date yet though. Sounds like a pretty nice phone!
Here's VMobile's blurb:

Some FB VM discussion commenters are saying possibly late July.
