What AI tools are capable of in modern smartphones using the example of the Motorola Edge 60 Pro
In the last few years, we have heard the term Artificial Intelligence, or AI, everywhere. The so-called AI has already reached almost all aspects of modern life. First of all, electronic devices, including smartphones. Yes, while what manufacturers call AI does not fully correspond to the meaning of the term "Artificial Intelligence", there are already many functions that can improve the quality of life. Starting from the generation of texts, images and ending with the improvement of photos and videos. Today we will tell you what AI tools are already capable of using the example of the Motorola Edge 60 Pro.
Motorola does not limit the user in choosing an AI assistant; the smartphone comes pre-installed with Google Gemini, Perplexity (a more specialized AI assistant for searching for information), and, in fact, the proprietary Moto AI. The smartphone has a separate button for quickly launching the AI assistant. You can also configure a tap gesture on the back cover for the same action.
It is worth mentioning right away that the smartphone in the editorial office is intended for Spain or Portugal, so the list of languages includes only the above-mentioned ones and English. However, Moto AI understands Ukrainian and is able to provide results in Ukrainian in most cases.
Tools, working with text, generating images
After launching the Moto AI app, we get to the main screen with all the main features, which are divided into two parts. The "Creative Tools" include the Playlist Studio, as well as the Image Studio. This is the generative part of the AI, which can create images and stickers based on descriptions, avatars, as well as images from a sketch. And it works very well:
The second part is called "Tools for speed" and contains several useful tools at once. "Important" allows you to record a conversation or report on a voice recorder with real-time transcription into text and creating concise summaries. All this is automatically saved in the "Notes" application. It works well and does not make too many errors when recognizing the Ukrainian language.
The Memories tool allows you to quickly save something you need: a photo, image, text, or Moto UI query results. A kind of quick and short notes.
The "What's New" item briefly summarizes all notifications and messages for the day.
"Ask or search" opens a panel for text or voice queries and quick access to essential tools. The same panel opens after pressing the Moto AI button.
As for queries, the functionality is quite broad and useful. In addition to simple search queries, there are more interesting possibilities. For example, Moto AI can make a concise translation of some text from a link. And here it is worth recalling that the sample in the review is not for the Ukrainian market. Moto AI made a concise translation in English.
At the same time, the request to come up with a birthday greeting for a friend was generated in Ukrainian.
When asked to create a shopping list, Moto AI will format it into plain English text. You can immediately add it to Memories.
Another interesting thing is the integration of Moto AI with the AI assistant Perplexity. By adding the word Perplexity to the query, we get results from it:
Working with photos and videos
In addition, the Motorola Edge 60 Pro has some AI tools for photos and videos. For photos, there are two basic color styles: natural with realistic colors and the so-called Moto signature style with more saturated colors. You can add your own, which is created using AI based on the user's preferences. This works as follows. The camera app offers to add 5 photos of food, 5 portraits and 5 landscapes. Then the user is asked to adjust the tone and color of each photo to their own preferences. After that, the AI creates a personalized style. This takes some time.

Continuing the theme of colors, the smartphone can slightly adjust the colors in ready-made photos. To do this, you need to click "Edit" when viewing the photo. The "Suggestions" item is automatically selected, which has a number of various original filters, as well as the "Correction" item with stars. It is designed to automatically improve the photo. Of course, according to the opinion of AI. Below is the original photo and the version improved by the smartphone:
A similar "enhancement" function exists for video recordings. By default, all such functions keep the original and make an edited copy, so the user should not be afraid of losing the original. Below is an example of the "enhancement" function in action. The original and the updated version:
Among the interesting features, it is worth mentioning the so-called "Magic Editor". When editing a photo, there is a bright round button in the lower left corner of the screen. It allows you to remove, move or change objects, the background or the sky in the finished photo. At the same time, AI automatically draws in or changes everything that is necessary. For example, when removing a car from a photo, AI draws in a piece of the road so that the photo looks natural. A similar tool is among the main editing tools. It is called the "Magic Eraser". The main difference is that when using the eraser, AI analyzes the photo and suggests what to remove. For example, people in a landscape photo. And for the most part it works very well. Below is changing the sky, removing and moving an object.
Results
We can say that modern AI tools in smartphones really simplify everyday tasks, in some cases can help with work and in general can save time very well, which the Motorola Edge 60 Pro has demonstrated in practice. In addition, there are really useful and effective tools for creativity, as well as improving photos and videos taken on a smartphone. AI is with us for a long time and the possibilities will only expand.
