It has been revealed that the Moto X will feature a specially-treated Gorilla glass that will not only cover the front of the smartphone but will also wrap around its sides which will account for a neat and gapless design. Google and Microsoft is said to likely call the surface ‘Magic Glass’. The phone is also laminated aluminium and zero-gap construction making it a strong and yet light construction.

Another specification include that the 10 MP camera comes with an unusual image sensor that can shoot 1080p videos at 60 fps. There is also the Moto Magic Voice function that will enable the users to use the smartphone without physically touching it and guiding it through voice commands through the always on Open Mic.
The price of this smartphone will come at a price similar to the Nexus 4. It will use nano SIM card as used by the Apple iPhone.
