About a week ago, we at Phones Review were keen to fill you in on news that had come through, surrounding a new Motorola XT928 ready to be released through China Telecom. At that time, we gave you information on its specs and proposed release date, but today judging by the news, the XT928 may in fact also be coming to Verizon but using a different brand name.

Compared to Motorola’s Droid RAZR, specs were similar barr the slide-out keyboard that the new XT928 was reported to include. Marketed as a “phone inside a camera,” the XT928 according to Phandroid.com, was carrying notable features such as being thicker in appearance, no carbon fiber or Kevlar materials, therefore giving it a comparison to the Droid X above anything else.

Other features of the new XT928 include, the user being able to source the battery through the removable cover, therefore allowing the phone to be used through batteries along with a 4.5-inch 720p display giving it a slight edge over and above the Droid RAZR. If the new XT928 which is due to be released some time this month in China does actually come to the big red US carrier Verizon, then sources are saying that it may include a name change to that of the new Droid X3 enjoying Verizon benefits of its 4G LTE network.

With Verizon currently stirring up the smartphone market with some new devices, is the supposed Droid X3 something that you would consider? Just before we go, word is that the new Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus will be officially releasing now on December 9th if this is something you’ve been waiting for?
