In addition to the previously mentioned RAZR V XT889 smartphone, Motorola announced another handset for China Telecom’s network today, the MOTOSMART MIX XT553.

While not as impressive as the 4.3-inch Android smartphone, the MOTOSMART MIX XT553 still has a lot of features to offer to those who choose to purchase it.

For starters, we should mention that it is being launched as a CDMA/GSM dual-mode/dual-standby smartphone, so that users could carry with them more than a single number.

“MOTOSMART MIX XT553 is the perfect phone for young people; giving you all the features you want without having to switch numbers,” Frank Meng, senior vice president and president of Greater China, Motorola Mobility, stated.

Made available at the wireless carrier today, the handset also comes with various music features, which should make enthusiasts happy.

“Rock your favorite hits with the MOTOSMART MIX XT553, a CDMA/GSM dual-mode/dual-standby music smartphone. With the e-Surfing iMusic and Sina Micro Music applications, you can easily enjoy and share the hottest music,” Motorola notes.

The smartphone also features a large 4.0-inch touchscreen display, as well as a long-lasting 1735mAh battery, which should deliver extended music playback times.

It also arrives on shelves with dedicated music keys, which will enable users to control their music without having to unlock the phone’s screen for that.

Moreover, it was packed with a series of social networking capabilities, so that users could share their current music in real time with Weibo followers, all through an exclusive Sina Micro Music application.

MOTOSMART MIX XT553 also sports the iMusic application from China Telecom, which enables users to easily find and download the hottest music out there.

The smartphone was built with rounded edges and features a sleek design and poppy-red accents on white or black colors. According to Motorola, these different shades of color should make the phone look cool at all times.
