Alleged Moto X+1 case render leaks with phone inside
We may have just received our first press render for the upcoming Motorola Moto X+1 — or not. @evleaks has just posted what he believes to be a case for the upcoming Moto X+1, complete with a render of the phone sitting snugly inside. But there’s a few issues we have with this leak…
First, the phone is showing bezel-icious display, complete with a forward facing speaker a la the Motorola Moto E. Now take a look at the back and you’ll noticed a complete absence of the standard LED flash on the back of the device. Sure there are 2 holes, but we’re guessing one is a mic used for video recording and the other is up in the air. It’s entirely possible this case manufacturer simply added the front of the Moto E (either intentionally, or by mistake), but we’re left scratching our heads at this leak.
Here’s to hoping this is just a taste of what’s to coming around the bend in regard to future leaks.
Moto 360 killer hardware feature revealed: will come with wireless charging
Generally when devices pass through the FCC they don’t reveal much. Sure we can occasionally get a few dimensions and/or radio bands, but they typically reveal little else. When it comes to an upcoming wireless charger made by Motorola — which made a pit stop by the FCC — the Commission may have revealed a hardware feature Motorola was hoping to keep secret for the Moto 360: Qi wireless charging.
According to the paperwork uncovered by Liliputing, the Motorola SPN5845A Wireless Charger is designed for use on the Motorola Moto 360, and supports the Wireless Power Consortium protocol (Qi). It’s unclear whether or not any Qi-enabled wireless charger will work with the smartwatch, or if Motorola has designed a charger/dock especially for the 360. Also, we’re hoping a more traditional USB method is also present for those times when a wireless charging pad aren’t accessible.
But there you have it. We expect to learn more about Motorola’s Moto 360 sometime this week, if not at Google I/O with a formal introduction to Android Wear, than perhaps at a separate event/press release.
