We are at the dawn of the AI phone era, and the first rays of sunlight are peeping through the window. Samsung made a big splash with Galaxy AI, but another notable tech brand wants to challenge it. Motorola just posted a teaser for the Moto X50 Ultra, its first AI phone. We’ve been following rumors about a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered phone from Motorola, so this might be it.
At this point, we may as well admit that the AI phone is the phone of the future. Samsung unveiled Galaxy AI; however, other companies are also adding AI to their phones. Oppo is working on its AndesAI model, and Tecno recently announced that it’s working on adding powerful AI to its future phones. So, it’s evident that the AI phone will dominate the market.
Motorola teases the Moto X50 Ultra, its first AI phone
Motorola is really big in the mid-range market, but it does have a few bombastic flagship phones. The Motorola Edge+ (2023) is a shining example of an amazing premium device. However, the company is looking forward
On the Chinese social media site Weibo, Motorola posted a teaser of the upcoming Moto x50 Ultra. We see a video of a Formula 1 racing car interlaced with flashing clips of the Motorola phone. The Formula 1 car is a reference to the Formula 1 season starting tomorrow.
In the video, we see a teaser of the actual device. Being a teaser, we are only presented with a silhouette of it. However, based on what we can see, it appears that the phone will have a rounded rectangular camera package situated on the top left of the backside. It looks like it’ll be pretty large. Also, it appears that this phone will have a leather or faux leather back panel.
One important thing about this teaser is the fact that Motorola displays the text AI pretty prominently. This lets us know that Motorola plans to center its upcoming flagship phone around artificial intelligence. Right now, the potential for artificial intelligence on phones is still being tapped. However, what we’ve seen so far typically includes text translation, text generation, text summarization, and photo editing.
So, if the Moto x50 Ultra does have similar AI technology to what we’re seeing today, then we should expect those features and a few more. As for the AI model this phone will use, we are pretty certain that it will use Gemini Nano. However, that’s just speculation.
Rumored specs
Details about this phone are scarce. So far, rumors point to this phone having a 4,500mAh battery with a whopping 125W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.
