Motorola Aura Information

The other truly remarkable thing is the display.. this isn't a rectangular display in a circular housing, the AURA actually has a circular LCD display that is 480 pixels and 1.55 inches in diameter. We don't know how practical this is, especially when displaying web pages, but we can say that it is very cool indeed. The 16 million colour screen is protected by a sapphire crystal lens to prevent scratches, something that presumably adds a great deal to the price.

The bulk of the phone is made from a chemically etched stainless steel housing that has been hand polished and given a protective coating. Motorola says that it takes two weeks to make the front piece of the phone, which again helps to account for some of the cost. The aluminium keys are individually made and finished before being assembled, and there are interesting features such as nickel-chrome plated exposed screws.

Even the rotating mechanism is pretty cool - there are 130 precision ball-bearings, hardened steel gears and Swiss engineering to create something that is a cross between racing car design and precision clockwork. Motorola say that the idea is that the mechanism should work just as well the 100,000th time it is used as it did on the first time.

Despite the lack of 3G or WiFi, the Motorola AURA does come with a comprehensive media player supporting MP3, AAC and Windows Media formats. There's a web browser and email client, and the AURA feature's Motorola's useful CrystalTalk technology for improved call clarity. The AURA also has stereo Bluetooth 2.0 and USB 2.0. Some of Motorola's technical specifications mention microSD memory, although it is possible that this is an error.
