Google Moto X: a superphone at a budget price

The phone, which is to largely be manufactured in America and is likely to launch later this year, will use advanced sensors to anticipate user behaviour, Motorola’s Dennis Woodside announced at a conference in America.
Without offering further details, he said the Moto X would change the way users “engage with how the devices are designed”, and that the “broadly distributed” phone would provide “experiences [that] are unlike other experiences out there.”
The device will mark Google’s first new product since it bought Motorola, the manufacturers of the first mobile phone, and will be an attempt to drive down prices of smartphones.
Woodside, a former Googler who was brought in to run the 2011 acquisition, said the flagship device would compete with both top Android devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One as well as the iPhone, which is expected to be updated later this year.
Woodside said the Moto X “is more contextually aware of what’s going on around it. It allows you to interact with it more than other devices today. It anticipates my need”.
