One of the main selling points of the original Moto X was Motorola's voice control features. The program will soon be expanded to include the U.K. and Germany who want to customize their device.

Significantly larger than the original, the 2014 Moto X features a 5.2' AMOLED 1080p display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 2.5Ghz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM and either 16GB or 32GB of internal storage. Motorola has jumped on this trend and equipped the new Moto X with an aluminum frame instead of one made from plastic. Features 5.2 inches screen with a resolution of 1,080 x 1,920 pixels and 424 ppi. Motorola's 2014 Moto X is a major update to the original Moto X. One of the big trends at this year's IFA has been using metal casings to make phones look and feel a bit more luxurious. The company sold 8.6 million smartphones in the second quarter, up from 6.5 million in the first three months of the year, and more than double what it sold in the same quarter a year earlier, according to ABI Research. Motorola hopes the new phone will help capitalize on its recent success. The good thing is that it still feels pretty light and easy to hold thanks to the curved back, but it's still a big phone. The new model is 5 grams heavier than its predecessor, at 144 grams, and is slightly longer and wider, at 140.8 milimeters by 72.4 millimeters - though it's also a bit thinner, at 9.9 millimeters thick. To help keep the phone running longer with the larger screen and higher resolution, the battery capacity has been increased from 2,200 mAh to 2,300 mAh.īut the larger screen, obviously, means a bigger device. The smartphone market has been moving toward screens measuring 5 inches or just above, and it seems Motorola felt it couldn't be left behind.

The company has also upgraded the camera - one of the original's weak spots - from 8 megapixels to 13 megapixels.īut the big difference in the hardware is the switch from a 4.7-inch screen with 720p resolution to a 5.2-inch screen with 1080p resolution. Motorola hopes to change that with the new Moto X, which is powered by a 2.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, instead of a slower dual-core processor. One of the issues with the first Moto X is that it didn't have the hardware to compete with other smartphones in its price range. The company hopes to change that with a new version that was shown at a hotel in Berlin away from the IFA trade show, rather than on the show floor itself.
