Google is developing its own new handset codenamed the 'X-phone' which they hope will allow it to compete with Apple and Samsung for a share of the $219 billion smartphone market.
Having acquired Motorola seven months ago for $12.5 billion, Google wants the phone to boast as yet unspecified cutting-edge features which will set it apart from the iPhone 5 and Galaxy models which have a controlling percentage of the lucrative smartphone market.
However, the software giant is said to have encountered practical problems with producing hardware, causing a re-think for initial plans for the X phone - such as using a bendable screen for greater flexibility.
