Tech Spurt previews Motorola Signature 27, camera bump and all

The motorola signature 27 is a beast! #shorts
The camera bump has already started a conversation. Under Tech Spurt's Motorola Signature 27 preview, viewers are asking why a phone with a thicker camera section couldn't use more of that space for battery capacity. Others see an echo of Motorola's old Droid Razr design.
Chris Barraclough has been testing a pre-production unit for a couple of weeks, and his short tour has passed 50,000 views in sixteen hours, far beyond the channel's usual Shorts opening. The comment section is also much busier than a typical first day, with requests for the full review alongside the design discussion.
This is an early look, not that finished verdict. Barraclough shows the textured back in Pantone Capulet Olive, then moves through the Snapdragon chipset and cooling system, a bright AMOLED screen and Bang & Olufsen audio. The restrained green exterior gets rather less restrained language from its presenter, who calls the phone's innards "pant-stirringly thrilling".
The camera section brings sample photographs and a 200MP telephoto sensor, putting particular attention on the zoom hardware rather than just the main camera. Viewers are picking out the photos as well as the shape of the phone itself.
Barraclough says he'll attend Motorola's official launch on 5 November for a fuller breakdown. For now, the prototype gives his audience something more tangible than a specification list: a close look at the finish, the camera housing and the pictures it can produce.

if theyre going to make half the phone thicker why not just make the same thickness with a thicker battery? i honestly don't understand companies
