Blast your status to Facebook®, MySpace and Twitter – all at once, right from the home screen or even send a group text and let everyone know where you're heading.

Scroll quickly and easily through menus and features with BACKTRACK, a touch panel located behind the home screen, offering you an unobstructed view of Web, texts, e-mails and news feeds. From back to front BACKFLIP puts your life in a new perspective.

We can't say this was a complete surprise, but AT&T made it official in February and introduced the Motorola Backflip as its first Google Android device. The Backflip made its grand debut at CES 2010, where we awarded the smartphone with our Best of CES award in the cell phones and smartphones category for its unique design, which includes a rear-facing QWERTY keyboard and a trackpad behind the display. Unfortunately, after now spending some time with the device, this seems to be the only real highlight of the phone. The Backflip suffers from performance issues and runs Android 1.5, making it a rather disappointing Android debut for AT&T. It's OK if you're upgrading from a feature phone, but with four other Android devices expected in the coming months, we'd wait to see what else is out there. The Motorola Backflip will be available starting March 7 for $99.99 with a two-year contract and after a $100 mail-in rebate.
Design
The most memorable thing about the Motorola Backflip is its design. You wouldn't necessarily know it by looking at the phone straight on, since it doesn't have any notable traits. In fact, it largely resembles the Motorola Cliq with a rectangular shape and rounded edges, but with a slightly smaller footprint at 4.25 inches tall by 2.08 inches wide by 0.6 inch thick.
Unlike the Cliq, however, the Backflip is a flip phone instead of a slider and this is where it gets interesting. When closed, the keyboard is actually located on the back of the phone, so when you swing it open, the keyboard sits right beneath the display. The layout makes sense and the hinge is strong but we just worry about the long-term durability of the keyboard. Though Motorola says the keyboard is rugged enough to withstand the exposure, we're curious to see what condition the phone will be in after an extended amount of time placing it down on a surface or mixing and mingling with other objects, like keys, in a pants pocket or bag.
