Motorola adds Moto 360 and more to their website.
The last twelve months have been strained for Motorola. Overload, re-branding and the subsequent transfer of the company from the hands of Google's hands Lenovo . But this has not stopped Motorola continue to produce great products. After the successful launch Moto G, Moto E and Moto X company is ready to conquer new heights.
At the ongoing conference in Berlin IFA 2014 Motorola has announced an update to its mobile lineup with new models of smartphones and Moto X Moto G, headset Hint and, of course, Moto 360 hours.
Moto 360
Let's start with the most interesting - hours. After seeing a lot of people really want to have a Moto 360 on his wrist. According to the manual Motorola, the development of Moto 360 focused on "style and craft." This is evident in the materials making up the clock: it was used grade stainless steel and high-quality leather.
Slightly disappointing lack of sapphire (a feature that is credited with not yet released a wearable gadget Apple iWatch), which is used in many hours of premium. Instead, Moto 360 rely on technology Gorilla Glass 3.
Thin and round display - that's what makes Moto 360 truly desired purchase. It measures 1.5-inches, and resolution - 320 x 290 pixels. For comparison: the hours LG G Watch the resolution is 280 x 280 pixels, while Samsung Gear 2 - 320 x 320.
Asymmetric resolution is due to lose 30 pixels, whose place was taken by the ambient light sensor and driver. Due to this was reduced display frame.
Moto 360 weigh about 49 grams. Dial Dimensions: 46 x 11 mm.
Watches are equipped with dual microphone sensor heart rate and pedometer. And as the operating system uses the "Googley" Android Wear. Filling Moto 360 is as follows: 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of internal memory and a processor TI OMAP 3, slightly inferior performance Snapdragon chipset 400, which is used in similar products from competitors.
Moto X (2014)
According to rumors, the successor to Moto X had to get the name of the Moto X + 1, but Motorola has decided not to invent and retained the old name. 4.7-inch 720p-display has been replaced with the same AMOLED, but with a diagonal of 5.2 inches and a 1080p-resolution. This increased the weight of the smartphone, but not much more - up to 144 grams. Thus, the device is turned on 1 grams lighter 5.1-inch Samsung Galaxy S5. I must say that it is a great achievement, because the body of the new Moto X made of aluminum rather than plastic as the first Moto X and Galaxy S5.
New Moto X has the dimensions: 140.8 x 72.4 x 9.97 mm.
Inside Moto X also has changed. The new smartphone has received Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset 801, which is used Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8. Large apgreyt after Snapdragon S4 Pro. The same in the graphic part: Adreno 320 (450 MHz) changed Adreno 330 (578 MHz).
This stuffing is a guarantee that the owners of the new Moto X will get Android update to version L (Android 5.0) within 30 days after the launch of the operating system, which should happen this month.
Refreshed and full-time camera instead of the sensor to 10 megapixels (F2.4) with LED flash and the ability to record 1080p-video now uses a 13-megapixel sensor (f2.25) with dual flash and support for video format 4K (Ultra HD). The new smartphone also acquired an additional microphone (now four) and a more capacious battery (2300 mAh instead of 2200). Given the smaller the voracity of the new processor, this increase compensates for the cost of energy to the big screen.
As in the case of the first Moto X, service Moto Maker allows to modify color, material end caps, and many other characteristics. In the USA, the new Moto X will go on sale for as low as $ 499.
Moto G (2014)
First Moto G Motorola brought a real success. In the five months after the launch, the company sold 1 million copies of this model. This motivated Motorola to expand their markets.
Reason for the popularity Moto G is simple: high performance, high-quality assembly and attractive price. New G, which is to run the media mistakenly called G2, followed the example of its predecessor.
The biggest upgrade here was the screen size, which increased from 4.5 to 5 inches. At the same orientation on the previous resolution (1280 x 720) resulted in a decrease in the density of pixels (329 to 294ppi).
New Moto G got an 8-megapixel rear camera (f2.0) and a 2-megapixel front. Speakers began to work with stereo sound, adding microSD-slot. Dimensions of the smartphone are 141.5 x now 70,7 x 6-11,5 mm, and weight - 149 grams.
Surprisingly, the changes have not touched the processor unit uses the same obsolescent 4-core Snapdragon 400 at 1.2GHz and Adreno 305 GPU.
Another disadvantage is the lack of support for 4G. But it covers the price. New Moto G will cost $ 180.
Moto Hint
Hint - it is a tiny smart earphone, which replaces a Bluetooth-headset. The device realizes his master's voice and knows how to use the search engine Google Voice. This gives you the opportunity to get answers to their questions, and receive phone calls to navigate without touching the smartphone.
Information on the price and the date of commencement of sales Hint not. The only thing that has been said in this regard - is that the device will be available in the coming months.
