Google Said to Be Working on 'X' Phone with Motorola
Smartphone could eventually be followed by tablet.
Google has produced multiple Google-brand smartphones (as well as a couple of tablets) over the last few years. Since it was launched, the Nexus line has included handsets from HTC, Samsung, and LG. However, it seems Google may be using the recently-acquired Motorola for its next phone.
Unwired View reports that the Wall Street Journal's usual "people familiar with the matter" have been whispering away about a new product from Google-owned Motorola. These people say Motorola engineers are hard at work on a "sophisticated" handset codenamed 'X phone.' The aim is to create a phone that will be able to go toe-to-toe with handsets like Apple's iPhone and Samsung's Galaxy line of smartphones.
It's not clear if this new device will be a Nexus-brand phone, but it won't be a Droid handset. Though features were not detailed by The Wall Street Journal's sources, Motorola's Dennis Woodside apparently wants a team that will do something that differs from current approaches. Woodside says he's investing in the team and technology necessary to do just that.
The phone itself is apparently due out next year, and while CES might be a touch too soon to hope for any news, there's a possibility that we'll hear something about this phone at Mobile World Congress in February of 2013.
Google is currently struggling to meet demand for its recently-announced Nexus 4 smartphone. Manufactured by LG, the device's low price means it has seen extremely high demand, and Google has had issues keeping the phone in stock.

This is an understatement. I wish I had more info on this Moto phone such as specs and cost.
As in, it needs to support the most popular and highly-requested features of all popular phones in one.
For example..:
-SD Card Slots (FOR F*** SAKES ACTUALLY RELEASE PHONES WITH THESE THINGS)
-Large 2500+ mAh Battery (replaceable)
-1080P Display
-All popular wireless technologies (WiFi, BT 4.0+, 3G/4G/GSM radios, NFC Etc..)
-Camera on-par with the Asus Padfone 2 (or Lumia 920)
Just a few of the popular things people ask for all in one phone.
3500+mAh replaceable battery
1080P+ AMOLED display
Gorilla Glass II (or better)
An even more evolved S-Pen
4GB of RAM
Another nasty-fast quad-core (or better)
SD Card
All the aforementioned wireless dohickys
A camera as good or better than the Note II's current shooter
...oh...2013 is gonna be a good year.
Motorola and Google think they can beat that?
Mark my words...I think the Note III will be looking a bit like the aforementioned.
5" 1080p Non-PenTile Super-AMOLED display,with a tiny bezel
Tegra 4 SOC
4GB of RAM
Camera thats on par with the Lumia 920 (Image quality wise, I don't care if it has more megapixels)
A GOOD QUALITY microphone for concert audio (once again, at least on par with the Nokia Lumia 920)
Carbon fiber case, Corning Gorilla Glass 2, Removable 3000+ mAh battery,
An SD slot
True 4G, 802.11ac WiFi, NFC, inductive charging, Bluetooth 4.0,
When a manufacturer releases an unlocked phone with these specs...
I just don't see it happening. Those kind of specs are planned for the S4 which hasn't even been annouced yet. Considering Samsung makes the hardware wherease Goog and Moto don't....I doubt they could leapfrog.
What normal no-brains customer wants from super phone...
- it has to be be very slim (so no chance of reasonable battery)
- it has to be simple to use (so no sd card)
- it has to have big screen and resolution (so it needs a lot of power)
- bacause of that is has to have guite good CPU and GPU (so it eats more power)
What we propably get is...
- very slim phone with 4-5" screen with reasonable high resolution
- very small not removable battery 1800-2200 mAh (so that the phone is still slim...)
- nexus (hopefully)
- two cameras with high resolution and reasonable picture... (normal no-brains people only look for camera resolution)
Not an ideal phone, but most likely what we will get... I would like my self to have much bigger battery but the rest of the world can not be wrong, so we will get another slim phone with pitifull usage time.... *sigh* just hope that this monster eats relatively small amount of power... (not likely) and it will be relatively cheap (guite possible)...
