Motorola will launch its new smartphone Moto X, which according to the company represents the best of Motorola and Google,  in the UAE next month.

Moto X has a unique curved back, designed to fit your hand. Talk to Moto X and it learns your voice. With Google Now, it tells you what you need to know – even when you’re not touching it. With two flicks of your wrist, Moto X becomes your camera and captures the shots you used to miss. It’s ready when you are – in that sense it really is a smart smartphone, the company said in a statement.

“At Motorola, our roots are deep in mobile hardware and innovation – we invented mobile communications and take pride in that,” says Marcus Frost, senior marketing director, EMEA & APAC, Motorola Mobility.

“Moto X fuses our history of mobile innovation with the best of Google mobile services to create experiences that no other smartphone can match. The UAE consumer is discerning and we are bringing a strong proposition to this market so that it changes the mobile experience for them. Moto X has been very well received across markets and would continue to add to Motorola’s momentum in the region and across the globe.”

"At Redington, we are quite enthused to be the exclusive MEApartners for the Moto X launch. We are also launching the product in Ghana in Africa. We continue to focus on bringing the best products and a superior range to our customers. The appointment of Redington by Motorola as a distributor for the Moto X in the Middle East is a strong endorsement of our distribution capabilities across MEA markets and of our strong relationships with the channel partners in this region. The state-of-the-art supply chain system at Redington can offer fast and efficient delivery services to mobile dealers and retailers throughout the region. We are working closely with Motorola mobility to optimize availability across markets," says Jim Matthews, vice president– Telecom Vertical (MEA).

No touching
To use Moto X, you only need your voice. Without touching it at all, you can get directions, set an alarm or do just about anything—just by talking. Say “OK Google Now” to get started. Ask it if you need an umbrella and it gives you up-to-the-minute weather for your location. Tell it you’re going home, and your Moto X will get you there. Because it knows your voice, Moto X can do things other phones can’t, said the statement.

Moto X is always ready to tell you what you need to know. Instead of a uselessly blinking light, Moto X gives you useful info at a glance with Active Notifications, which appear right on screen. Even while it’s asleep, it’s always on top of things. A last-minute dinner invite? A missed call from your boss? A key email while an important meeting is going on? It doesn’t interrupt.

Get the shot.
Moto X knows you need a camera, and it’s always ready to go. Just twist your wrist twice and it’s ready. Touch anywhere on the screen, and you’ll get the shot, all in just a few seconds. Continuous shooting capabilities, as well as a ten megapixel camera, mean the photos you do take are the ones you want, it said

And your Moto X gets smarter all the time. With nearly 50 software enhancements since the Moto X was first released, including useful new features for Touchless Control, Moto Assist, Active Display and more, the Moto X is more powerful ever.

Moto X will be available in the market in June in black or white for Dh1599, it said. -TradeArabia News Service
