Google will release its newest Android-operated smartphones by the end of June, including a debut of its first United States-produced device.
Aimed to be a sophisticated Google-Android combo, the HTC One smartphone will be released on June 26 at US$599.
Google’s first self-produced handset release will follow under the name Moto X.
Equipped with unique technology, Moto X is being manufactured in Texas with imported parts from South Korea and Taiwan.
Dennis Woodside, head at Motorola Mobility, said: “It is the first smartphone that is going to be built in the United States.”
The plant located near Fort Worth will employ 2,000 people by August.
Moto X users will benefit from the device’s adaptability to conditions or circumstances through built-in gyroscopes and accelerometers.
Woodside explained: “It knows it is in my pocket or out of my pocket, and can anticipate use cases so it knows when I may want to take a picture and fires up the camera.”
He provided a practical example, saying the mobile phone will adjust its behaviour according to the measured speed by which a car is driving.
Google purchased the Motorola unit for US$12.5 billion with a keen interest on its mobile phone line and the company’s 17,000 patents.
