14 DAY TRIAL // Recently, Canadian mobile phone carrier Bell has made available for purchase on its airwaves a new, highly appealing smartphone running under Google's Android operating system, namely the Motorola ATRIX.
Currently, as part of a promotion, the new handset is available at Bell for only $69.95 (after $100 instant credit) upon the signing of a 3-year contract agreement with the wireless carrier.
However, the offer is time limited, and only those would make the purchase before March 31st would benefit from it. After that, the phone would be priced at $169.99 on a three-year contract.
Those who do not want to commit to such a long-term contract can purchase the phone on a 2-year contract for $549.95, or on 1-year term, for $574.95. If purchased free of contract, the handset would go for $599.95.
The Motorola ATRIX was launched in January as the most powerful smartphone on the market, and was voted best in its category at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show.
The handset comes with a dual-core processor packed inside, complemented by 1GB of RAM, and with a large 4-inch qHD touchscreen display.
“Designed to deliver incredible maximum speeds of up to 14.4 Mbps, it has the power to double as a personal computer and entertainment unit with the exclusive LAPDOCK and HD Multimedia Dock. It also comes with Flash 10.1 for seamless viewing of online animations and videos,” Bell notes on its website.
The Android-based Motorola ATRIX can be seen on Bell's website here. It is also available for purchase via Future Shop here.
In related news, we learn that Bell is also gearing up for the launch of the new HTC Incredible S on its airwaves, and that the wireless carrier might make the move as soon as April 4th.
Apparently, the handset would be exclusive to Bell for a limited period of time, with Virgin Mobile and SaskTel also planning on making it available for their users shortly.
A leaked internal document that emerged over at MobileSyrup also shows a possible price tag of $499.95 for the device, but specific info on the contract pricing for this device has not emerged so far.
