Motorola X: CEO Dennis Woodside Confirms Smart Phone Arrival This Summer with Assembly in the US

Motorola's upcoming device lineup adds the Motorola X alongside the RAZR HD and RAZR i as CEO Dennis Woodside confirms the smart phone arrival is scheduled this summer. The Motorola CEO assured during the D11 conference that the Motorola X will have two processors that allow different smart phone interactions without affecting battery life.

"We'll launch a handful of smart phones that aren't the end but show where the company is heading. It allows you to interact with it in very different ways than you can with other devices. It's in my pocket but I can't show it to you," Woodside stated at the conference.

Though Google has already purchased Motorola, Woodside acknowledged that Motorola is still treated as a separate company. "I sat down with Larry Page about what we are going to do. We will take it back to the roots of innovation and build devices that have the potential to change people's lives," Woodside revealed.

Furthermore, Motorola Mobility LLC previously announced that the Motorola X smart phone components will be assembled in the United States. The major components will still be produced abroad like the touch screens in Taiwan and the processor in South Korea and the US factory workers will be acquiring the finished components to utilize them in assembling the Motorola X phone.

The upcoming Motorola device is expected to still have "conflict materials" even though the mobile manufacturing company changes the procedure of how the Motorola X is created. According to Motorola, the business move on the US smart phone assembly will "allow the company to iterate on design much faster, create a leaner supply chain, respond much more quickly to purchasing trends and demands as well as delivering devices to people much more quickly."

Motorola's embrace on the ashore device assembly is comparable to Apple's decision to shift some of their production away from Foxconn and building a new line of Mac laptops in Texas. In 2012, Lenovo also confirmed that they are ready to manufacture tablets in North Carolina.
