Motorola is slowly, but surely, reviving from its ashes like a phoenix. With the recently announced Motorola AURA luxury phone the renowned American manufacturer shows again that bleeding edge technology and fine mechanics can be elements of art. Motorola V70, with a turnable cover, is something completely new from the company, as Motorola AURA is the world's first phone to have a 1.55" round display with a diameter of 480 pixels and the screen is even protected with 62 karats of sapphire crystals. The menu of the handset, according to the specs, has been completely redesigned, and at the same time, the 240 x 320 pixels large internal zone of the display provides compatibility with previous applications. The handset is also interesting because of the mechanical solutions used. The phone, made of more than 700 pieces, has 200 Swiss gear bearings in order to make the cover's opening as smooth as possible. The patterns on the stainless steel cover are made in two weeks using chemical processes, during which they form, etch and smoothen the material and then finally braise a protective layer on it. Motorola AURA, equipped with a 2 megapixel camera, 2 GB of internal memory, stereo Bluetooth support, providing 7.3 hours of talk time is 96.87 x 47.6 x 18.55 mm large, weighs 141 grams and can be ordered on the manufacturers site with shipping in December at a price of $1999 USD.
