Mobile phone maker Motorola is expected to deliver at least two handsets to the market in China, and these devices are said to be the Motorola MT710 and Motorola Zeppelin, both of which have just emerged in a series of new photos. Both handsets should be already familiar to you, as the former seems to be a version of the DROID, running under China Mobile's OPhone OS, while the latter emerged previously along with the Motorola Sholes Tablet and the Motorola Motus.

The Chinese version of Motorola DROID is expected to come to the market without the sliding QWERTY keyboard present on the original, though it will still sport a large touchscreen display: 3.7-inch with support for 845 x 480 pixel resolution. The handset is expected to land on the Chinese market with TD-SCDMA connectivity on board, as well as with Wi-Fi and CMMB (China Multimedia Mobile Broadcasting).

As for the Motorola Zeppelin, it seems that the handset vendor is set to deliver it to China under the name of Motorola XT800. The handset is said to come as a dual-mode phone, featuring both GSM and CDMA connectivity options, while also boasting a large 3.7-inch touchscreen display with an 854 x 480 pixel resolution. Moreover, it should also include 3G connectivity, Wi-Fi capabilities, WAPI and an HMDI port, as well as a 5-megapixel photo snapper with flash.

The one thing that is certain here is that the Chinese mobile phone users are about to receive two very appealing devices, one of which boasting China Mobile's own version of the Google Android operating system. However, the exact details regarding the release date and pricing are missing both for the Motorola MT710 and for the Motorola XT800 (Zeppelin). You can take a look at the images available with the two mobile phones, or head here to view additional photos and learn more on them.
