We know that Motorola’s glory days of the past are never going to come back, at least in the smartphone world. We say that because the company is now owned by Lenovo and their ambitions are mostly limited to the Chinese market right now.
However, that does not mean Motorola’s smartphones are not coming to other markets but the quality is not there anymore. But Motorola is still making headlines and it is for the right reasons as well.
Motorola just launched a new dongle which looks like a Google Chromecast but works very differently. In fact, this dongle from Motorola is made to revolutionize the auto industry.
If you own a car that was made in the last few years then you would have Android Auto support inside your vehicle. However, the problem is that you will have wired Android Auto support on the car which needs you to connect a USB cable to your phone in order to connect it.
It is also worth noting that high-end cars do have wireless Android Auto support. But if you have a budget car, you should have an option as well. And Motorola has come to the rescue of millions of car owners who were fed up of carrying a USB cable with their car.
Motorola MA1 is a dongle that connects to the USB port on your car and lets you wirelessly connect to Android Auto. It is said that you need not remove your phone from the pocket because Motorola MA1 will connect as soon as you switch on the car.
Also, Motorola MA1 is branded by the company but is originally manufactured by SGW Global which has a license for Motorola branding on its home products too. The company says that Motorola MA1 will be available from January 28, 2022, and will be available for $89.95.
We do feel that the pricing is a bit steep but the main factor here is the huge problem this dongle solves and we feel people will pay for the peace of mind alone.
