It’s been almost a year since Motorola unveiled its made-in-America Moto X smartphone with unique features including an always-listening mode for voice commands.
Now the phone maker is ending it’s made-in-the-US experiment, and Google is making always-listening mode a little more common (as long as your screen is on).
So what’s next for Motorola? If a leak from a Brazilian retailer is anything to go by, a bigger screen, a faster CPU, and more.
The website in question has since been removed, but the folks at Droid Life copied down the specs before it went away.
The phone is said to have a 5.2 inch, 1920 x 1080 pixel display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, a microSD card slot, a 12MP rear camera, 5MP front-facing camera, and a 2900mAh battery.
It’s not clear if these are the final specs… or when the phone will launch, if there will be different versions in different countries, or if we can really trust any of the details.
But there’s mounting evidence that a Moto X+1 is on the way, and it seems like a safe bet it’ll have at least some improvements over last year’s model… although Motorola is making a habit of showing you don’t need the highest-resolution screen or the fastest processor to make a splash. The company’s last few phones have made headlines for other features such as their useful software or low prices.
Lame, i really liked the smaller screen size of the X
