Motorola’s rumoured X Phone is in news once again. Australian
publication SmartHouse is reporting that the smartphone will
go on sale in July down under and will be a game-changing
device.
Reportedly being announced at the Google I/O developer
event in May, the phone will be running on a new Android
version (Key Lime Pie?) that leaves behind both Samsung’s
Touchwiz customizations and Apple iOS goodies, notes
SmartHouse.
“Google has been working on this device for a long time. It has
software features and capabilities that are not available on a
Samsung Galaxy smartphone or Apple iPhone. The software is
really powerful and it pulls together Google services like no
other manufacturer has done in the past,” a so-called reliable
source told SmartHouse.
As the previous reports have indicated, X Phone is the first
smartphone in which Google has some real involvement since
its acquisition of the US based mobile phone maker. All the
launched devices since Google-Motorola deal were inherited
by the company from original Motorola Mobility.
SmartHouse also adds that former Marketing Manager for
Motorola Mobility in Australia Barry Smyth has moved to the
US to head up marketing for Motorola X Phone. His public
LinkedIn profile confirmed this information.
In related news, Motorola X Phone was sort of confirmed by a
job listing from Motorola on LinkedIn.
