Updated: Motorola's Moto X phone aims for 2-sec snapping, Clear Pixel images

Update: Our hands on with the Moto X phone has revealed more about the camera.

Though the Clear Pixel tech makes up for the pixel shortage, and the RGBC sensor is supposed to capture more light, the photos only "appeared a bit washed out and overly bright."

This doesn't bode well since the camera seems to be a major player for the X.

But there's always more tests to run, so tune back in to TechRadar for a full review coming soon.

Original article ....

The Moto X wastes none of your time when dealing with its phone camera. Or at least, that's the hope.

While touchless voice command is a highlight of the phone, Motorola's focused on the tactile for its snappers, creating a device where holding the screen will cause continual picture taking. No more missing life's precious moments as you fumble for the snap button.

A "doorknob-esque" twist, or a little shake, makes the phone snap right into camera mode. Motorola also touted the phone's QuickCapture feature, which lets users go from "pocket to pictures in two seconds."

Camera options like HDR and flash open in a side window, where swiping up allows for a quick zoom in while in camera mode, and swiping right on the screen opens the photo gallery.

Camera specs and Clear Pixel

On the back, the Moto X is fitted with a 10MP camera that can capture 1080p video at 30 FPS. There's an LED flash, un-amazingly as well. A 2MP snapper is affixed to the front, and that allows for 1080p HD video recording all those selfies and selfie vids of you with your friends.

The Moto X camera will also be equipped with a new RGBC image sensor, Clear Pixel - special low lighting tech that has an extra set of white pixels, the only job of which is to capture light and allows for faster photo capture.
