XT860

 lets you do more and be more. 

Pound out emails and texts faster than ever before, 
efficiently and accurately, using the spacious fifth row 
QWERTY keypad with improved tactile response. 

Your new smartphone is a productivity powerhouse:

Take crisp, quality photos with the 8MP camera on 
the back, then videochat with the camera on the 
front.

Always stay a step ahead—edit documents and 
presentations on the fly with Quick Office.

Find the hottest retail deals or get into the must-see 
concerts with Social Location by Motorola. With a 
single click you've got reservations and tickets. And 
Google Maps™ gets you there in a flash with 
turn-by-turn directions, traffic alerts, and arrival 
times.

Note: 

Certain apps and features may not be available 

in all countries.

Caution: 

Before assembling, charging, or using your 

phone for the first time, please read the important 
safety, regulatory and legal information in this guide.
