Is The Motorola Mirage The Nexus Two?

on 01/17/2010, filed in Home > CellPhones

This is far (very far) from an official press photo of the Motorola Mirage, but it’s certainly a much nicer render of the phone than the one previously spotted. There still isn’t any official word on this device just yet, but various sources are hinting that this device would be the upcoming enterprise version of Google’s Nexus One, which has been dubbed the “Nexus Two”. Of course, you should remember that the Nexus One was made by HTC, and not Motorola, so this seems like purely speculation at the moment. Of course, if Motorola were to work closely with Google, it might come up with an even more successful phone than its Motorola Droid, so who knows, right?

Android: Android is the mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license. You can follow Ubergizmo on Android with Google Currents.

Google: Google is an Internet Search company with profits mainly derived from its AdWords advertising program. Google is also known for other high-profile web-related products such as Chrome, GMail, Google Docs or Google Map, and it has also made a very successful entry into the mobile handset market with its Android mobile operating system. The company was created in 1998 and went public in 2004. Google is one of the most visited site in the world.

HTC: High Tech Computer Corporation (HTC) is a Taiwanese manufacturer of smartphones and tablets. The company started as an ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) that was building devices for others, but went on making HTC-branded smartphones based mostly on Microsoft's Windows operating system (OS) for mobile. In 2009, it began to shift its core focus away from Windows mobile devices to Android-based ones. In 2010 the company went back to the Windows Phone eco-system.

Motorola: Motorola is an American telecommunication company that has been split in two: Motorola Mobility (now a Google company) and Motorola Solutions. Motorola Mobility now focuses on handsets and set top boxes, while Motorola Solutions works on infrastructure and enterprise products. Motorola Mobility's best products are the Motorola RAZR M, RAZR HD, and RAZR Maxx HD. In Europe, Motorola has partnered with Intel to build the Motorola RAZR i.
