Motorola were so impressed with the voice-powered artificial intelligence that they&#8217;re putting her into their next phone to provide a 24\/7 assistant in your pocket.<\/p>\n<p>Motorola revealed their plans for Alexa integration back in February, however at the time it was a basic level of support provided through a &#8220;Moto Mod&#8221; providing the correct mic setup. Now the Motorola X4 will ship with 3 microphones built-in and full Alexa functionality, one of the first phones in the world to come with Amazon&#8217;s popular AI assistant.<\/p>\n<p>Alexa will act like many existing phone assistants such as Apple&#8217;s Siri or Microsoft&#8217;s Cortana however with even deeper functionality. For example Alexa can be asked and answer questions even while your phone is locked, you don&#8217;t even need to touch it.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qJBdN4sOlYA<\/p>\n<p>Another pretty awesome feature of the X4 is support for multiple speaker connections via a new Bluetooth from French startup Tempow. This will allow you to play music through multiple speakers or headphones at the same time which is incredibly unique for a smartphone. If Alexa is capable of setting up these connections via voice control as well the X4 is on track to replace your home speakers.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Alexa support is an incredible front-facing camera, dual-camera on the rear, powerful water resistance, octa-core performance on the inside and more. Motorola&#8217;s X4 is due to release later this year in the states and will release this month in Europe for\u00a0\u20ac399 \/ $416.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Motorola are still making phones (who knew, huh?) and soon they&#8217;re launching the X4, an Amazon Alexa powered smartphone.
