The one in the picture is clearly fake plasticky wood. can tell even in the low quality image.
Have they developed a machine that can cut the curves as skillfully as a woodworker can?
I would have applauded them if they had used real wood for the back panel like Motorola did back in the day.

I'm not a fan of the wood back, but it doesn't bother me as much as the sloped camera bump. I think that's a hideous design.

You can look up Twitter for some official specs and updates but the only things that are missing I wanted to know if anyone could tell me,
Horizon lock from the edge 40's & then if in any version of the 50 series is 8k video recording which was a good little Easter egg on the edge 30 fusion 888+ chip was like three years ahead of the rest and even today can still hold its own.
Wish I didn't lose it in Africa

Wow! I'm so impressed by the wood finish back cover and with the looks of the big camera design. I wander thou the performance of this device. The specs are high.

AI can't do anything on fixing dull color in cloudy situation. Not even the most capable Photoshop / Lightroom expert or professional colorist. It is very obvious when you look at the photos taken by the hot balloon session.
You need optical transmittance with excellent lens design and coating technology. This is where Sony Xperia 1 V, Vivo X100 Pro and Xiaomi 14 Ultra surpassed the others by utilising class leading optical technologies from Zeiss and Leica. Not even any iPhone, Samsung or Pixels can handle that properly.

A great, long-awaited move toward Moto X. But €1000 is too much for that. After 18 months, the predecessor 30 Ultra costs €450 officially now.

“Admittedly, the wooden back isn't pure wood. Motorola has used special coating for the surface, which retains the wood-like texture while also protecting it from water and skin oil, so it won't change color or lose its looks. Either way, the imitation is pretty good - it almost feels like real wood.”

Either the hands are too large, or the phone has a small form factor, looks like holding a toy 😂😂 Please update team GSM, what's going on in there
