This is not official yet, but there are high chances for T-Mobile to be preparing a major release, with two new Motorola handsets. They are both due to arrive during September, although there are not too many specifications.

The first of the two devices to be released at T-Mobile is Motorola W490. The handset is capable of providing
only average performances. It follows the lines of the RAZR phone model, but at a highly more accessible scale. Its features and lack of evolved capabilities will surely reflect in the handset's price, making it an affordable but still fashionable device.

The mobile phone will lack the most basic performances. It lacks even a camera and Bluetooth connectivity, some standard features for most mobile phones out there. What it does manage to include is the RAZR design line, although with a smaller display and only similar lines.

The V3 06 handset is an entirely different story. This device features quite vague information and the name tells even less. Under these circumstances, one can only assume that it's actually an older device that has been renamed by the carrier. It could very well be the Motorola RAZR2 handset, as it is on its way towards a US release from the most important operators on the market.

Either way, the Motorola V3 06 features all the basic features that most mobile phones manage to pack, just like the W490 model. Still, the design is slightly different and there should be more than what first specifications reveal. This device is also compatible with myFaves, although no specifications on camera or Bluetooth has been revealed.

The release date for the Motorola V3 06 is still pretty vague, only hinting towards September. The W490 model has also received an exact date for when it will hit T-Mobile's stores, on the 24th of September. Still, there is more than a month left to wait until then, enough for further details to appear.
