The Motorola Milestone XT720, the 8MP Android phone formerly known as the Motoroi, is now on unlocked from UK sites. If you’ve been itching to get your hands on the hefty Android 2.1 handset, you can slap down your cash now to get it SIM-free but you’ll need pretty deep pockets…
While the Motorola Milestone XT720 pre-order pages popped up on sites like Expansys and Play back in May, both sites are now shipping the phone for £359. For that you’ll get a totally touchscreen phone (unlike the original Motorola Milestone) packing a 3.7in screen. The aforementioned 8MP camera comes with a Xenon flash and 720p HD video recording and there’s HDMI to hook the Milestone XT720 up to your telly.
We spotted a T-Mobile logo when we snapped our Motorola Milestone XT720 photos back in June. If you don’t want to throw down the cash for an unlocked Milestone XT720, we’re pretty sure to see deals from the networks soon.
Take note though, one possible downside with the Motorola Milestone XT720 is that it’ll come running Android 2.1 with no news on when it and its Motoblur UI might get an Android 2.2 overhaul. Still, those specs are pretty tasty and if you’re angling for a Android-packing camera phone, the Milestone XT720 could be a good bet.
Let us know if you’re taken with the Motorola Milestone XT720. Are you planning on grabbing it unlocked or will you wait and see what networks snap it up?
