Motorola's E680i and E685 musicphones

Motorola e680i

We hit up the E725 earlier today, but Motorola announced two other musicphones this morning, the E680i and the E685.


The E680i (pictured at right) looks like an updated version of their Linux-powered E680 smartphone which came out last year (the name is a dead giveaway). This one's a tri-band GSM/GPRS handset that comes with support for stereo Bluetooth headphones (it has the A2DP profile, which is sort of a big deal for a cellphone), playback of MP3, WMA, WAV, and AAC audio files, a digital camera (not sure what quality, but we're guessing VGA), an SD memory card slot, and a built-in FM tuner. Should be available in the Asia and Pacific markets next month.

The E685 is a slider-style CDMA phone with support for MP3 playback, a stereo headset jack, and VGA quality digital camera. This one's only for China.
