We have been hearing rumors that Motorola is working on a new Android tablet for a while now, and it looks like Motorola has purchased some new domain names which could hint at the device’s name.
The guys over at Fusible have discovered that Motorola has purchased MotorolaKore.com, plus a range of variations on the name, and they all center around the name Kore.
Of course, they could have purchased the domain for a new smartphone, although a tablet seems more likely, and it could possibly be the company’s first Android Ice Cream Sandwich tablet.
Speculations and Expectations
The name “Kore” has sparked a lot of speculation among tech enthusiasts. Given Motorola’s history with innovative devices, many are expecting the Kore to be a high-end tablet that could compete with other major players in the market. The potential for it to be the first Android Ice Cream Sandwich tablet adds another layer of excitement. Ice Cream Sandwich, known for its improved user interface and enhanced performance, would make the Kore a highly anticipated device.
Motorola has been a significant player in the Android ecosystem, with devices like the Motorola Xoom setting benchmarks in the tablet market. The Xoom was one of the first tablets to run Android Honeycomb, an operating system specifically designed for tablets. If the Kore follows in the Xoom’s footsteps, it could offer features like a high-resolution display, powerful processor, and extensive connectivity options, including 4G LTE.
Domain Name Strategy
The purchase of multiple domain names around the “Kore” moniker suggests that Motorola is serious about this new product line. Companies often secure various domain names to protect their brand and ensure that potential customers can easily find their products online. This strategy also prevents competitors from acquiring similar domain names, which could confuse consumers.
The range of domain names purchased includes variations like MotorolaKore.com, KoreTablet.com, and others. This comprehensive approach indicates that Motorola is preparing for a significant product launch, and they want to cover all bases to ensure a successful rollout.
As soon as we get some more information on exactly what the Motorola Kore is, we will let you guys know.
