The video also teases a dedicated AI button, which may unlock new smart functions, though details remain scarce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Other specifications, including processing power and battery life, are still unknown. However, early leaks suggest Motorola could add a higher IP rating for dust and water resistance.
