While nothing extremely solid regarding the supposed Motorola X Phone has leaked out yet, we’re still holding onto hope that the phone still exists. Our hopes just got a bit of an upgrade, though, as a new Motorola device has just made its first appearance at the FCC. This one carries the model number XT1058, and its radios suggest this thing is bound for AT&T shores.
The FCC outline doesn’t give much away, natch, but we can see an area for a (rather large) camera sensor flanked by a speaker grill, an LED below that, and likely the Motorola logo below that. This setup looks to match the same featured on the prototype leaked by @evleaks close to two weeks ago, a phone that was labeled “XFON ATT.”
That isn’t concrete evidence that the X Phone is real and that it’s going to AT&T, but if this device is real then we can’t imagine AT&T won’t get a crack. So when can we expect a revelation, if true? Earlier rumors suggested Google I/O, but we’ve never been too confident in that date.
Several rumors since the device was first tipped suggest Google might opt to announce the device at a later date, but considering the shakiness of this entire mill we’re not exactly sure what to put faith into. We’ll have our attention fixated squarely on Google I/O regardless, and we’ll be there live and ready to bring you updates on anything Google and Motorola might be bringing to the party.

So basically any new Motorola phone could potentially be the new X phone.
Unfortunately, yes.
Sick of the rumours, I don’t think it exists at all. Even if it does, it won’t be called “X-Phone”.
Yes it does. See my picture above. Want some more pics? I have plenty.
What if this phone was actually a successor to the Atrix HD from the beginning and AT&T lost its “exclusive” Atrix label? Say like this “X-Phone or XFON” (as the FCC has it labeled) will be brought over to all GSM carriers? I read that Google is abandoning the project, yet here is a leak. So many rumors are clashing. Can’t wait for Google I/O.
Why isn’t user Bionic all over this article??
We just got tired
I wouldn’t expect to see it at I/O, especially after the announcement that it would not spend much time on new products but would be focused mainly on the developers.
A little late Phandroid lol
Mad late. I’ve been using the phone for a month now.
This phone needs to be in my pocket already. My little OG Atrix is huffing and wheezing
If the “XFON” does go to ATT, I hope Motorola/Google doesn’t allow them to bloat it up.
Or at least offer it on Google Play Store :D as Vanilla.
