Are you ready to extend your perception of the color brown? That’s exactly what Motorola promises will happen when you lay your eyes on the new color option for the Motorola Razr Plus 2024, now available in the 2025 Pantone Color of the Year. In addition to the Razr Plus 2024, the rich mocha is also available for the Motorola Edge 50 neo in markets where it is available.

“Mocha Mousse reinforces the importance of savoring the moment—a reminder to indulge in life’s simple pleasures. Mocha Mousse also inspired us to create a new soft inlay composed of coffee grounds. Its warm and comforting essence embodied the sensory nature of this shade,” said Ruben Castano, VP of customer experience and design at Motorola.

Maybe some of that is lost on me, but I can’t deny the appeal of this color. The warm hues of the color are almost soothing to look at. It’s a rich, deep brown color that really is quite striking.

Brown isn’t exactly a common color choice for a phone (or anything besides belts and shoes, really). Manufacturers tend to opt for futuristic, neutral tones like silver, black, and white, or they go for bright colors like the Koala Grey, Beach Sand, and Spritz Orange options currently available for the Razr 2024. Apple, Samsung, and the other major players in the market should be willing to experiment with colors a bit more.

You could always protect your phone with a case, but if you’re going to shell out a little extra to try a unique color, make sure the case is clear.

Mocha Mousse will be available for the Razr Plus 2024 soon. If you’re interested, you can register to order it on Motorola’s website.

The OnePlus 13 is coming on January 7 — along with a surprise

It's official: the OnePlus 13 will launch on January 7, 2025. Preempting the anticipated event by several weeks, OnePlus has officially confirmed the date we’ll see its next major smartphone release outside of China. Additionally, it has revealed some key features and news of a surprise new launch to go along with the phone.

OnePlus will release the OnePlus 13 in three different colors — Black Eclipse, Arctic Dawn, and Midnight Ocean. It’s the latter that is likely to be the model to have, as it is wrapped in a material called micro-fiber vegan leather, which is apparently corrosion and scratch-resistant but still luxurious to the touch. For the Arctic Dawn phone, the glass will have a special coating to give it a silky-smooth finish. It’s likely these are the same colors offered in China, where the phone has already been announced, just with different names.

I’m really worried about the future of smart glasses
The front of the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses.

The Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses are among the most interesting, unexpectedly fun, and surprisingly useful wearables I’ve used in 2024. However, as we go into 2025, I’m getting worried about the smart glasses situation.

This isn’t the first time I’ve felt like we’re on the cusp of a new wave of cool smart eyewear products, only to be very disappointed by what came next.

We need to talk about this fantastic, industry-leading Motorola collab
A person holding the Motorola Edge 50 Neo.

We are accustomed to tech brands partnering with adjacent brands, whether it’s OnePlus with Hasselblad or Honor and Huawei with Porsche Design, and often — such as with Xiaomi and Leica — singing the praises of the resulting collaborations. But not enough has been said about Motorola’s now established partnership with color experts Pantone.

It was when the recently released Motorola Edge 50 Neo arrived for me to try out that I finally understood how impactful the collaboration has become. Why? It manages to make even ordinary colors look fantastic.
Boring gray?
