Although the Moto X phone will be officially unveiled on August 1, Motorola can't seem to stop the details from squeaking out ahead of time.
Over at Android Police, an anonymous tipster has sent in detailed screenshots of the phone's camera app, showing how Motorola has gently tweaked the stock Android experience.
While the app's blue-on-gray color scheme and flat white icons pay homage to stock Android, Motorola has retooled the interface around swipe gestures. Swiping in front the left edge brings up a rotating wheel of camera settings, and swiping from the right takes you to the gallery. It looks like users will have options for HDR photography, live effects and slow motion video, along with typical toggles such as flash and shutter mute.
Unlike most Android phones, the camera on the Moto X reportedly won't have a dedicated shutter button. Instead, users can tap anywhere on the screen to take a photo, or hold the button down to take multiple photos. To zoom in or out, users can drag up or down anywhere on the screen. A pair of buttons on the screen will let users choose between photo and video recording, and to switch from rear to front-facing cameras.
