Motorola Droid Bionic lives on, promises to launch this summer with ‘some new updates’It’s been six months since the Droid Bionic graced the CES showroom floor in Las Vegas. In that time we managed to get a hands-on of the device and pair it against its rival, the Motorola Atrix. In the months that passed the Atrix saw its launch and rather luke-warm reception while the Droid Bionic quietly sat out the first half of 2011.

Internally Motorola scraped its original design and decided that it needed to reinvent the phone, presumably to live up to its superhuman name. Meanwhile the qHD 4.3-inch display, Tegra 2 processor, 8-megapixel camera (vga front-facing), and 4G LTE connectivity remain unscathed.

Today we have the latest update in the Motorola Droid Bionic saga straight from the horse’s mouth, “Droid Bionic is coming and slated for summer release. Our team is working on some new updates.”

There you have it. The Motorola Droid Bionic still exists and a summer release is confirmed. Though we’d love to see new product images, possibly even an updated press release, but this will have to hold us over. Now we need to know — after the extended delay is there anything Motorola could do to make the Bionic live up to the hype?
