Despite being released around the first quarter of 2011, the Atrix 4G is still one of the top-tier dual-core smartphones available. It’s loaded with 1 GHz at each core and natively runs Froyo (2.2) though is very much upgradable to Gingerbread. Being Motorola’s first dual-core phone, they placed the most they can, including a 4-inch qHD Gorilla Glass touchscreen at 540 x 960 resolution. As with the other Motorola phone in this list, the Atrix 4G is another one of those laptop-capable phones with its docking feature. As for social media integration, what Motorola did was place its MOTOBLUR UI over the Android OS and you’ve got one very social-oriented phone as you can place updates right in your screen. For a middle range phone, the Atrix 4G does what it’s supposed to… with the addition of more.
