Motorola’s 8 megapixel powerhouse the first Android phone with Xenon flash

Motorola has confirmed that it’s bringing the Motoroi XT720 to Europe, albeit under a different name: Motorola Milestone XT720.

The Milestone XT720 has just been announced in the UK as the first Android smartphone to feature Xenon flash. Like the Korean Motoroi, the new handset comes with a 3.7 inch WVGA (480 x 854) multi-touch capacitive display, Wi-Fi, GPS, HDMI port, 3.5mm headset jack, 8MP autofocus camera, HD (720p) video recording, and an 8GB card included in the box.

Unfortunately, the processor of the Milestone XT720 is not faster than the one of Motoroi, as previously rumored – it’s just a 550MHz one.

The Milestone XT720 runs Android 2.1, but it will probably be updated to Android 2.2 Froyo after launch. And speaking of launch, Motorola didn’t say when the new Milestone will hit the market – however, the handset will likely be available in the next few months (in the UK at least).

The XT720 could also be launched in the US soon, and regional carrier Cincinnati Bell might be the first to sell it. So, would you buy this instead of, say, the HTC Desire?

Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
