The Moto X is yet to be announced but rumors surrounding some of its unique features have begun percolating. Now we have a video showing its various features, and some of the features are really unique. The video is a Rogers ad, for their network in Canada.

Here's are some of the new features we see in the video:

Open Mic: Always-on mic for voice commands, like Google Glass (The girl in the video invoked Google Now by saying Okay Google Now). It also works in stand-by.
Active Updates: The screen lights up to show the clock and notification icon.
Camera can be launched by twisting your wrist twice, weird gesture.
No shutter key in camera app, just tap anywhere to take a photo or tap longer to take several shots at once.
Moto X is expected to launch in Canada this August in Black and White
LTE connectivity onboard
There's a SIM card slot, so the battery might be non-removable.

But are these features enough to keep Motorola, the new Google Company to stay afloat? Well, that's the question on everybody's mind.
