Motorola, a Lenovo company, is committed to delivering cutting-edge experiences through its partnership with Google, ensuring its consumers enjoy seamless and innovative interactions across their devices. From advanced AI-powered search tools to smarter messaging and photo editing, it is redefining how users connect with the world around them. As it continues to collaborate to make everyday tasks more intuitive, efficient and personalised, Motorola is providing its consumers with access to the seamless innovations that come from two industry leaders working together.
Here’s a glimpse into some of the latest experiences Motorola is bringing its users:
Simplify finding information with Circle to Search with Google
Imagine being able to search for something without having to switch between apps. That’s exactly what Circle to Search offers — a new way to search on select Motorola smartphones¹ with a simple gesture. With just a circle, highlight, scribble or tap, users can instantly get the information they need without leaving the app they’re in. Whether they’re browsing social media and come across an unfamiliar term, spot a pair of shoes they’d love to buy, or want to learn more about a restaurant’s menu, Circle to Search lets users search what they see on their device, no screenshots necessary. Plus, users can now search for a song they hear at any moment by activating Circle to Search. When listening to music on their device, users simply need to long-press the home button or navigation bar and tap the music button to identify the track.
Experience free-flowing, natural conversations with Gemini Live⁵
Chat with Gemini, the AI assistant from Google to supercharge creativity and productivity. And now thanks to Gemini Live, users can engage in more natural conversations. With Gemini’s conversational abilities, users can skip typing and engage in verbal dialogues, making communication feel more intuitive. They can speak back and forth with Gemini and receive concise verbal responses, making conversations feel more casual. Whether they’re looking for event ideas, gifts or trip plans, Gemini can help them brainstorm out loud, offering fresh ideas. Users can deep dive into topics that interest them or rehearse for important events, like job interviews or presentations, with Gemini Live’s guidance. Users can easily access Gemini Live through the Gemini app, which comes pre-installed in the external display of motorola razr+/motorola razr 50 ultra and motorola razr/motorola razr 50.²
Enjoy smarter, more personal messaging with Rich Communication Services
Google Messages on Motorola devices provides consumers with all of Google’s advanced messaging features. With support for RCS (Rich Communication Services⁴), the modern texting standard, Google Messages is changing the way we connect. Taking personalisation to the next level, Google Messages gives users the option to customise the bubble colour and backgrounds of their conversation and the person they’re communicating with and film and send a selfie GIF, making each chat feel more unique. Users can also easily continue their conversations on a phone, tablet or computer without missing a beat.
With RCS enabled⁴, users will also benefit from high-quality image and video sharing, typing indicators, message delivered and read receipts as well as enhanced group chats when texting with iPhone users. Plus, Motorola and Lenovo users can take advantage of Smart Connect for an even more seamless cross-device experience.
Messaging is also becoming smarter, thanks to Google’s AI-powered tools that enable features like Gemini in Google Messages and Magic Compose. When looking for suggestions or help with tasks like planning or finding gift ideas, users can chat with Gemini directly via Google Messages. Magic Compose offers users ways to craft stylised, suggested responses, for effortless communication. For example, this feature offers context-aware responses, saving time and ensuring messages sound natural. Users can take this a step further by rewriting a message in a more formal or fun tone like Shakespearean, enabling them to communicate more effectively in any setting.
Edit, organise and search Google Photos with AI
With Google Photos as the native photo app on Motorola smartphones, users gain seamless cross-device access to their images, thanks to integration into the Google ecosystem. This allows for seamless sharing, collaboration and cloud back-up with automatic syncing. Additionally, Google’s advanced AI editing features like Magic Editor, Magic Eraser, and Photo Unblur empower users to fine-tune their memories with ease.
With Magic Editor, generative Al helps edit photos. This allows users to reposition subjects, improve backgrounds and adjust image elements with simple gestures, making complex edits easy.
Motorola’s continued partnership with Google ensures that users have access to tools that simplify and enhance their daily lives. Motorola is committed to continuing its extensive partnership to deliver the best solutions for users.
