名家点评谷歌摩托X手机

Philip Elmer-DeWitt 2013-08-09
谷歌收购摩托罗拉移动这么长时间之后终于搞出了点动静。它们推出的摩托X手机最早8月底就会面世,售价200美元左右,提供色彩等多种订制服务。手机问世不久,各路资深评论人士就在第一时间进行了测评。总体而言,业界喜欢这款手机,但还它算不上是惊世之作,也不会成为iPhone终结者。

    摩托X是摩托罗拉(Motorola)自去年被谷歌(Google)以125亿美元收购后推出的第一款手机。

    这款手机预计将于8月底或9月初面世,具体时间取决于电信运营商其合约价为200美元。

    大家熟悉的各位评论人士上周收到了用于评测的摩托X样机。他们自然免不了把它与苹果(Apple)iPhone、三星(Samsung)Galaxy系列,以及宏达电(HTC)One做一番比较。

《华尔街日报》(Wall Street Journal)沃特•莫斯博格:摩托罗拉移动推出的摩托X提供包括颜色在内的多项定制功能。“摩托X的起售价为200美元,我已经测试了将近一个星期,感觉非常好。它的性能符合宣传,续航时间也很长。但我不认为Moto X有颠覆手机行业的能力,它和2007年诞生的iPhone相距甚远。因为,时至今日,包括摩托X在内的所有手机,语音输入功能仍然有限,有时甚至令人沮丧。而就那么几个功能可以省下一步操作或是一秒钟,实在算不上翻天覆地的成就。”

《纽约时报》(New York Times):摩托X系出谷歌,iPhone迎来最新的挑战者。“不幸的是,摩托X所谓的五大突破看起来平凡得很。它是部不错的手机,不过必须与外形巧夺天工(而且扬声器效果一级棒)的HTC One一争高下,与动力十足(而且屏幕极为出彩)的Galaxy S4一决雌雄,与有最强大应用生态系统(而且语音识别非常出色)的iPhone决一死战。摩托X有信心吗?”

科技博客瘾科技(Engadget)约瑟夫•沃尔普:摩托X评测。“与Galaxy S4或宏达电One不同,摩托X没有洋溢着科技的光彩,它不过是各方面都表现平平的一款产品。我的看法如下:你认识那些根本不了解自己的iPhone型号,而且把所有Android手机都称为Droid的iPhone用户吧。摩托X就是为这样的人准备的。”

科技博客Gizmodo布伦特•罗斯:摩托X评测:值得入手的Android手机。“我们上周入手了摩托X,第一印象超出了预期。我们花了一周时间使劲蹂躏这部手机,很高兴,摩托X的好印象仍在延续。忘记硬件参数吧。这绝对是一部物超所值的手机。”

科技博客All Things D凯瑟琳•博莱特:摩托X手机在千篇一律的机海中鹤立鸡群。“对于希望拥有一部时髦的手机,以有别于众多千篇一律的智能手机的用户而言,摩托罗拉推出的智能手机定制网站Moto Maker极具吸引力。它令人耳目一新,让购买智能手机的过程变成妙趣横生,堪称可谓前所未有的事。”

金融服务公司The Motley Fool亚历山大•赵:摩托X不够好。“如果这就是谷歌能开发出的最棒的产品,那它失败了。iPhone的新款iOS7操作系统以及无与伦比的零售分销将秒杀摩托罗拉。在即将到来的假日季中,所有经过苹果商店的路人都将看到苹果公司发布的多款新品。新一代iPad、新一代iPhone,以及苹果iPhone廉价版产品系列(如果传言属实的话)也将一一亮相。苹果的产品和服务向来以令人兴奋而著称。而这是谷歌/摩托罗拉所欠缺的东西。”(财富中文网)

    The Moto X is Motorola's first phone since Google (GOOG) bought the company last year for $12.5 billion.

    It's due out in late August or early September, depending on the carrier, and will sell for $200 with contract.

    The usual reviewers got their hands on it last week. Comparisons with Apple's (AAPL) iPhone, Samsung's Galaxies and the HTC One were inevitable.

Walt Mossberg, Wall Street Journal: Motorola Mobility's Moto X Offers Customized Colors and More. "I've been testing the Moto X, which starts at $200, for nearly a week, and I like it. In my tests, it performed as advertised, and showed strong battery life. But I wouldn't call the Moto X a game-changer, like the original iPhone was in 2007. That's because, today, voice input on all phones, including this one, is still limited and sometimes frustrating, and saving a step or a second for just a couple of functions isn't earthshaking."

David Pogue, New York Times. The Moto X From Google, iPhone's Latest Challenger."Unfortunately, the Moto X's five breakthroughs don't exactly shake the earth. It's a fine phone, but it has to compete with the deeply satisfying beauty (and superior speakers) of the HTC One, the seething power (and superior screen) of the Galaxy S4, and the infinite app-and-accessory ecosystem (and superior voice control) of the iPhone. Moto XI, anyone?"

Joseph Volpe, Engadget. Moto X Review. "The Moto X exudes no tech halo like the Galaxy S 4 or the HTC One because it is the sum of averages. Here's how I see it: You know those people who own iPhones, but don't know which model number they own and also refer to all Android phones as Droids? This phone is for them."

Brent Rose, Gizmodo: Moto X Review: The Android Phone for Everybody. "When we first got our hands on the Moto X last week, we were way more impressed than we thought we'd be. We've been using and abusing it since then, and we're happy to say that the good first impression has held up. Forget specs. This is a phone that punches above its weight."

Katherine Boehret, All Things D. Moto X Stands Out in Sea of Phone Sameness. "Moto Maker is a draw for people who want a stylish phone that will stand out in the sea of smartphone sameness. It's a breath of fresh air, and it makes buying a smartphone fun for the first time in a long time."

Alexander Cho, The Motley Fool. The Moto X: Not Good Enough. "If this is the best product that Google can come up with, it has failed. The new iOS 7 operating system and the unparalleled retail distribution of are going to crush Motorola. All of the foot traffic that's going to pass by the Apple Store this coming holiday season will see the company's multitude of releases. The next generation iPad, next generation iPhone, and (if the rumor of Apple iPhone Lite is true) the iPhone Lite product line will pop up too. Apple is notorious for generating excitement for its products and services that Google/Motorola simply does not have."
