Motorola ATRIX HD is the latest high-end Android-based smartphone to land on shelves at wireless carrier AT&T in the United States.

The smartphone, made available for purchase through the operator at $99.99, is now available for only half of that if acquired through Best Buy.

The retailer has added the smartphone to its offering at $49.99 with the signing of a two-year contract agreement with AT&T, and has it available both in Titanium and White.

Just as its name suggests, the ATRIX HD is the successor of Motorola ATRIX and ATRIX 2 smartphones, both available in the United States through AT&T.

However, the new device comes with much higher hardware specifications, and also runs under newer Android software, which makes it one of the top-of-the-line devices now available at the wireless carrier.

Motorola ATRIX HD arrives on shelves with a large 4.5-inch touchscreen display with ColorBoost technology, and it is capable of delivering a 720p resolution.

Moreover, the handset packs a 1.5GHz Qualcomm MSM 8960 dual-core application processor inside, which is great for multi-tasking, and which also enables users to stay connected with their friends and family via AT&T’s LTE network.

On the back, the new mobile phone features an 8-megapixel photo snapper, capable of recording videos in full HD resolution, and complemented by a front camera with 720p video chatting.

The handset also lands on shelves with Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n connectivity inside, as well as with Bluetooth 4.0 LE, a microSD card slot to complement the available internal memory, and a battery that can deliver up to 9 hours of talk time or up to 9 days of standby time.

The new Motorola ATRIX HD was launched with Google’s Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich inside, and with Motorola’s own UI loaded on top of it. Those of you who would like to grab the smartphone can find it available on Best Buy’s website via this link.
