The Power of Strength, Meet Jamie Gane

Jamie Gane is a disabled professional athlete from Hampshire, United Kingdom. Currently ranked number two in the world for Judo within his category and a professional obstacle course racer, Jamie has never let the challenges he’s faced get in the way of his dreams – including a below-knee amputation.

Although Jamie now has several accolades under his belt, when his condition first started, he had little information and resources to rely on. That’s why once Jamie’s story gained attention on social media, he decided to create his own blog where he could share the vital information he did not have access to following his own surgery. Jamie hopes to be an inspiration to other young people trying to overcome similar challenges and believes his blog can serve as a resource for them.

For Jamie, technology has played a huge role in his life. It’s helped him help others and also helped him with his own journey and recognizing his strength both physically and emotionally.

The Power of Rhythm, Meet SuperMike Mosquera

Super Mike Mosquera is a 21-year-old singer, rapper, and composer of his own music, as well as a lyrical writer for other artists too. He’s also a barber. For Super Mike, every moment of his life consists of music. Whether he’s getting ready for work, cutting a client’s hair, or hanging out with friends, he does everything while singing and turns every experience into a song.

That’s why technology has completely changed his life, enabling him to write or record the melodies that appear in his head almost instantly, no matter where he is or what he’s doing. And he never loses a moment of inspiration, because he has all of the tools he needs in the palm of his hand.

When asked about how he felt working with Motorola, Super Mike said, “It was a super special experience for me to be part of such a big and beautiful project by the simple fact that I am a multifunctional person, and to be able to work hand in hand with Motorola to inspire others… I felt super proud and excited.”

For Super Mike, rhythm gives him the power to feel alive and with technology, he’s able to share his music and create magic with the world around him.

The Power of Growth, meet Mitchell McCulloch

Mitchell McCulloch is a self taught organic grower from England. Last year, he closed his catering business and moved from east London to the countryside to pursue his passion for the natural world, ecology and horticulture – specifically involving plants that can feed and heal us. Being a chef, Mitchell knew a lot about food, but not a lot about growing it. After some practice and nearly seven billion YouTube views later, he’s grown his kitchen garden into an impressive all organic permaculture. 

Mitchell uses a lot of tools to grow his food sustainably, but most important to him has been his mobile phone. It helped him learn how to start his organic garden from zero, and create more contacts in the industry. He’s even started teaching others all about growing through his own radio show. 

Mitchell has been around food his whole career, but the power of growing it himself has given him a new purpose.

The Power of Vibrations, meet Lin Chang Lan

Born to dance but also born deaf, Lin Chang Lan is a 34-year-old contemporary dancer from Taiwan. To Lin, her hearing impairment is not a challenge but has taught her how far her senses can take her. By feeling the vibrations of the music and thanks to support from her mother, Lin has made a name for herself as a dancer in Taiwan. 

In the past few years, Lin has turned to technology to connect with other dance companies in the country, and even started her own YouTube channel. Serving as both an interpreter and communication channel, technology has allowed Lin to learn, teach and be a part of a team without restrictions – something she never imagined possible given her impairment. 

Thanks to the power of vibrations, Lin can express herself through dance and empower others to do the same.

The story behind Motorola’s new global platform: a calling to our inner power

Today, we’re excited to share the next wave of Power To Empower, the Tech With Heart series. We’re sharing 12 authentic stories from real Motorola users on how technology empowers them to pursue their passions, use their voices and achieve their goals. With these stories, we want to reassure people that technology is for everyone and that when applied well it can empower both you and your communities to achieve your greatest potential.

With the help of The Masses and the direction of Juan Amusategui, these stories were narrated by people of different countries (Argentina, Chile, France, Colombia, UK, US, Taiwan Region, India and Hong Kong), realities, languages, races, and cultures. Bringing this to life required a truly global collaboration – interacting with people from 18 nationalities, creating more than 20 Terabytes of data, and working across 21 countries.

Be sure to check back weekly as we unveil their stories! First up, a story about a deaf dancer from Taiwan who uses technology to learn and dance with people all across the country. Technology today empowers us and connects us in many different ways. It helps us overcome limits and supports us as we define and work towards new goals, regardless of nationality, age, gender or race.

Behind Power to Empower

Power To Empower, the Motorola brand platform was created by WTF Agency to encourage people to fulfill their goals, express themselves, connect and unleash their inner voices through the power of technology. Through Motorola’s technology, we are determined to help our users embrace their inner power and create positive change.

“Last year changed the lives of everyone and from Motorola, we needed to show to millions of people all over the world that technology can support their lives positively and to show them a better future,” said Renata Altenfelder, Global Director Brand Marketing at Motorola. “It was an interesting challenge that encouraged us to create this new concept and that will serve as an incredible brand platform.”

In July, the team kicked off the Power To Empower platform with a film that brought the essence of the concept through real people and their stories.

Motorola introduces its vision for the future of mobile technology during Tech World 21

With each of these concepts, platforms and experiences, Motorola continues its mission to deliver meaningful and innovative, on-the-go solutions that improve mobility, pocketability and overall convenience for consumers. And looking ahead, we will bring devices and solutions to our customers under One Lenovo.

To explore more of what was announced today at Lenovo Tech World ‘21, please visit: https://news.lenovo.com/press-kits/tech-world-2021/.

Technology is at the center of our daily lives and has become even more crucial as we thrive into this next reality. Whether we’re still working from home or back to traveling the world, we’re now more dependent than ever on technology to keep us connected and entertained.

Today at Lenovo Tech World ‘21, Sergio Buniac, SVP of Lenovo’s Mobile Business Group and Motorola’s President, along with other key spokespeople at Motorola unveiled experiences that will empower consumers, transform and ease the way they interact with technology. Here are some of the major highlights from Motorola at Lenovo Tech World ‘21

Unleashing the power of your smartphone

At Motorola, we understand that smartphones have become so much more than just being a tool for communication – they are the hub for information, entertainment, productivity and even content creation.

And what better way to elevate those experiences, than to bring them to the big screen and beyond with Ready For, a platform that unleashes the power of our smartphones by connecting with multiple screens* and working seamlessly with our Lenovo PCs.

Together with Lenovo, we are bringing unified experiences to the market. For example, thanks to Ready For you can now connect your phone to a monitor, a PC, and even explore AR with Lenovo’s ThinkReality A3 smart glasses.*

A new era of wearable technology

In addition to Ready For, we also previewed a new era of wearable devices that will change the way we interact with the world around us all powered by 5G technology.

As we look at a world where the smartphone can seamlessly connect to purpose-driven displays, PCs and glasses, we are working to address the needs of our consumers.

We all want a more portable smartphone – something easy to put in your pocket or perhaps easy to wear without feeling its presence. During today’s event, we demonstrated a wearable 5G form factor that always keeps you connected and allows you to display content to the bigger screens around you. 

Seamless charging through over-the-air power

Finally, Tech World ‘21 also showcased a collaboration with GuRu Wireless, Inc. and Salom Electric Co. to bring an over-the-air wireless power solution to Motorola smartphones in the future through a seamless charging demonstration. With this, we will allow users to charge multiple phones at the same time without the limitations of wires or charging pads, so they can stay connected no matter what.

While we announced our partnership earlier this year, today’s event reinforces our joint progress towards transforming the way we live and bringing freedom and flexibility to consumers by easily keeping their devices charged.

With each of these concepts, platforms and experiences, Motorola continues its mission to deliver meaningful and innovative, on-the-go solutions that improve mobility, pocketability and overall convenience for consumers. And looking ahead, we will bring devices and solutions to our customers under One Lenovo.

Get Ready For back to school with these tips for teachers, students and parents

As summer vacation comes to a close, teachers, students and parents alike are preparing to head back to school. Whether that’s completely virtual, hybrid or in-person, technology is helping to improve the educational experience so students can continue to get the best possible education no matter if they’re in the classroom or in their kitchen. And Motorola’s Ready For software platform is one of them. 

Ready For unleashes the power of the smartphone by providing new ways of interacting across devices and amplifying everyday experiences to larger displays. And when it comes to education – teachers, students and parents can all reap the benefits of an intuitive, immersive platform like Ready For. 

The Teacher

Ready For lets users activate advanced subject tracking** when video calling & recording. The advanced subject tracking feature automatically determines the best camera to use, tracks movement and zooms in and out to ensure you’re always front and center, regardless of if you’re writing on the whiteboard or sitting at your desk. 

And with Ready For PC¹, teachers can also more easily multitask during lessons. By simply downloading the Ready For assistant application on your Windows device and scanning a QR code, your Ready For Mobile Desktop will appear on your Windows screen, so you can text your colleagues status updates or attendance records while also teaching a new lesson. 

The Student

In addition to leveraging advanced subject tracking for A+ worthy presentations, Ready For lets students use their phone as their PC by connecting to a TV* and using a mouse and keyboard. This means students can use existing technology around the house, like a TV, to easily view pre-recorded lectures, review class notes, and study materials content on a larger screen. 

For those students who do have a PC, Ready For PC¹ will make it easier to stay focused as it brings all your notifications to one screen, so there’s no need to switch back and forth between devices or open unnecessary tabs.

The Parent

Whether you are constantly trying to find the charger to the laptop or making sure your child is actually doing their homework, as a parent, you no longer need to stress about keeping track of all your child’s technology. Because with Ready For, you can use one device – the phone. Wirelessly connect to a TV*, so you can see the homework while still being able to use your phone to check the answers (because let’s be honest 5th graders are smarter than most of us). And you’ll never hear: “I forgot to bring my school computer” or “I don’t have my homework assignment with me”, again. Now it’s all on one device.

Ready For is available on motorola edge 20 pro, motorola edge 20 and motorola edge 2021, edge+ and g100. Ready For PC is available on motorola edge 20 pro, motorola edge 20, motorola edge (2021) and motorola edge 20 lite.

Motorola razr 5G wins Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021

Motorola has scooped the coveted Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021 with its distinguished razr 5G device, for its high design and user experience quality. Since its launch last year, the device has been recognized widely for its groundbreaking design.

Motorola strives to innovate around the design and engineering of smartphones in order to create devices that meet the needs of consumers while also providing them with an element of surprise and delight. This extends across the entire portfolio of products but was most recently recognized by Red Dot for razr’s unique clamshell foldable design.

“razr 5G was designed to create a totally new smartphone experience that utilizes flexible display technology and answers a real consumer pain point – the need for portability without sacrificing access to content”, says Ruben Castano, Head of Customer Experience at Motorola. “Every decision throughout the development process was geared toward delivering a strikingly beautiful device with a totally unique, but totally practical, pocketable design. As a result, razr succeeds at embodying each of Motorola’s core design principles: simplicity, surprise, and richness”.

The Red Dot Award: Product Design dates back as far as 1955 and recognizes the best products for a given year. The roughly 50 jurors were once again true to the motto “In search of good design and innovation” in the 2021 competition. The international panel of experts comprises specialists from a wide variety of sectors. They scrutinized the products entered in the competition in a process that spanned several days and were guided by assessment criteria such as the product’s formal quality, ergonomics and longevity.

razr 5G can be seen in the online exhibition on the Red Dot website. Starting on June 22, 2021, the razr 5G is also included in the exhibition “Design on Stage” in the Red Dot Design Museum Essen, where all of the award-winning products are showcased. Visitors to the museum can experience the quality of the designs in a space that features contemporary design solutions and historical industrial architecture.
