After we got done drooling over thathands-on gallery with the Aura, we thought we'd take the thing for a quick spin on video. It's really impossible to convey how sharp and choice this thing looks and feels in person, but we did our best. Video after the break.
WOW! Most useless phone in my opinion. Is it just me or the thing is slow when accessing the various menus. Not sure I would want a Motto phone anyway... I gave up on those years ago.. I think everybody else did too.
The phone is attractive. But I am not trying to look at such a small screen. The resolution of the screen may be awesome, showing 2 million colors. However, I can't imagine reading or sending a text message on this phone.
That phone is just a fancy watch... The snobby rich guy who compares thousand dollar watches that barely look better than an 80 dollar watch will get this to impress his friend... This is for the guy worth a quarter billion who uses a razor.. because his "smartphone" isnt a personal digital assistant its just a personal assistant.. Moto is trying to create a new "superphone" category because they cant compete with HTC, Samsung, and LG... But honestly if you collect expensive watches this might be the must have phone.. because most High end phones are ugly as hell and dont warrant the price.. This phone is actually worth the price if it is really made as high quality as they say.. the sapphire lens over the screen, they viewable gears and bearings.. I doubt there is a higher quality phone out
Perfect for the guy that rolls in a VW Phaeton. Overpriced luxury item with all forms of ridiculous from a company most associate with cheaply built overpriced crap...
who cares, why would anyone pay that money for a phone that does the same thing as my mothers 5 yr old nokia...moto is crap, they havent made something interesting in a very long time.
Fancy-looking device is an answer to a question nobody asked. It's unique-looking but is it any good for use as a phone. It looks like a nice piece of jewelry, but that's about it. Except for the screen it doesn't seem to have very good hardware. Too much time put into etching a case. Motorola will sell a handful of these and that's it. Motorola will continue to go down in market share.

Beautiful
Totally unimpressive - the V70 was the worst phone I have ever owned and now they rehash it and sell it for $2k?
"It's really impossible to convey how sharp and choice this thing looks...."
Yep, it sure is...
its still a piece of shit. a choice piece of shit.

I still don't get it. It looks stupid, not expensive. Those buttons are all jammed together.
