Following a tease at Snapdragon Summit, Motorola has confirmed that its Signature 27 flagship is officially coming to North American markets, but with a bit of a wait.
To recap, the Motorola Signature 27 is a full-on flagship packing Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 processor, 7 years of updates, and more.
Signature 27 is set to make a full debut in the near future, but Motorola has now answered the biggest question; will it come to the US?
The answer to that appears to be yes, with a note sent to media outlets including 9to5Google confirming that Motorola Signature 27 will be “the newest addition to [Motorola’s] North American smartphone portfolio.” The company further notes that a release will land “in the coming months.” It’s big news, as Motorola hasn’t released a proper flagship-level smartphone in the US in several years now.
Also being touted in today’s announcement is a multi-year partnership with Bang & Olufsen. Motorola explains:
…Motorola and Bang & Olufsen have partnered around a shared belief that technology should deliver exceptional performance while being thoughtfully designed. The collaboration brings together Motorola’s expertise in mobile innovation, design and self-expression with Bang & Olufsen’s century-long heritage in sound and iconic design.
Together, the brands will create experiences in which sound is not simply a feature, but an intentional and integral part of the product experience. More than an audio partnership or endorsement, this collaboration unites two design-led brands with complementary expertise to deliver more meaningful experiences for consumers. Soon, selected flagship Motorola devices will feature audio tuned by Bang & Olufsen’s acoustic engineers. The collaboration between the two companies will also see the integration of “Audio by Bang & Olufsen” deepen across audio technologies, sound modes, new user experiences and an expanded ecosystem for futurelaunches.
