The Motorola Photon 4G is Sprint's first 4G Android device from Motorola that promises to bring stellar specs to the table that gives the rest of Sprint's lineup a run for their money.  The Photon 4G is expected to ship with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) along with some impressive specs such as a 1GHz dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, 16GB of on board memory with a card capacity of up to 48GB, 8-megapixel HD camera with a front-facing VGA camera, all underneath a beautiful 4.3" qHD display.

As with other emerging devices the Motorola Photon 4G will sport a kickstand on the back for improved media viewing.  The capability of 3G/4G mobile hotspotting for up to eight devices will also be a feature that puts the Photon 4G above its competitors.
