Now the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One have both been officially announced, the Android rumor mill is turning its attention to the Motorola X Phone, the name given to the first, true hardware collaboration between Motorola and new owners Google. It has not been officially announced yet, but there have been some subtle hints dropped by Google executives concerning its existence, and these are regularly joined by leaked, speculative feature lists.
We start the week with another set, this time provided to PhoneArena. In keeping with previous leaks, the anonymous source states the X Phone may have a 4.8-inch screen and be powered by a 2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor. Following some comments made by Google’s Larry Page, it has been assumed the X Phone will have a tough exterior and a powerful battery. This new rumor suggests the phone will be water resistant and the screen will be covered in sapphire glass, which as we found out during Mobile World Congress, is almost indestructible. Couple this with rubberized corner protection and a carbon fiber rear panel, and you’ll have to be pretty careless to do the handset much damage. Finally, a massive 4000mAh battery could provide the X Phone with all the energy it needs, and Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie may be its operating system.
