New Google “X Phone”: Long battery life, wireless charging, unbreakable case
Google hints at the new lunch of Google "X Phone," a mobile
device coming from Motorola, the mobile phone manufacturer Google
acquired in May 2012. It has been rumoured that Google will reveal the
Motorola-built "X Phone" and "X Tablet" at its next developer's conference, which is scheduled for May 15-17, 2013.
The Google "X Phone," rumoured features range from a bendable screen and a ceramic case to advanced gesture recognition technology—but whatever it is, it will be the first true "Google phone," where everything from its hardware to its software will be under Google's complete control.
It has been revealed that past efforts at creating Google-branded devices, as in Google's Nexus line of phones and tablets, have always been partnerships with a variety of manufacturers outside Google.
According to Google CEO Larry Page, "In today's multi screen world, the opportunities are endless... battery life is a huge issue... when you drop your phone it shouldn't go splat. There's a real potential to invent new and better experiences."
Larry Page also mentioned phone recharging as a pain point for people. This is speculation, but the obvious interpretation of these comments is that Google is working on—or at least thinking about—phones with extra long battery life, some kind of novel (perhaps wireless) recharging capability, and a case that won't break when the phone is dropped, which is possibly a reference to earlier rumors about Google's X Phone using an extra-hard case that incorporates ceramics.
