Might be called Greco

Mobile phone maker Motorola seems set to show to the world that it can do a nice work on the Android side of the market, as a new, yet-unreleased handset from the company has just emerged into the wild, supposedly based on Google's highly popular Android operating system, namely the Motorola XT502. This is not the first nor the only such device the company is expected to bring to the market during the ongoing year, but it should give it a helpful hand in its attempt to conquer the users' hearts.

The new Motorola XT502 was spotted over at the Bluetooth SIG and brought to light in a recent article from UnwiredView. Reportedly, the new mobile phone is expected to arrive on the market with a touchscreen display, while boasting quad-band GSM connectivity and support for tri-band UMTS (850 / 1900 / 2100 MHz) frequencies. Moreover, the device should include WiFi (802.11b/g) capabilities, as well as Bluetooth 2.0, in addition to the USB 2.0 connectivity (via a microUSB port, most probably).

Other specifications of the newly spotted Motorola Android device include a 3.5mm headset jack, along with built-in A-GPS receiver. While a photo snapper is certainly present on the handset's back, as can be seen in the image attached to this article, no specific details on it emerged for the time being, it seems. We should also mention that no info on the Android version it runs under is available either, yet UnwiredView notes that Froyo seems out of the question, given the available image with the phone.

Another piece of information that emerged from the Blutooth SIG is that the handset might land on the market as the Motorola Greco. Moreover, given the handset vendor's history with devices like XT701 and XT800, there are great chances the new Motorola XT502 might land on the market in China, though its appearance on other markets around the world is not out of the question (it packs support for European and North American 3G bands).
