Motorola’s upcoming Signature 27 will be the first non-Pixel phone to ship with a broad set of Google’s Gemini Intelligence features. Set to launch on November 19, the device will bring “Create My Widget,” “Gboard Rambler,” “Sign-to-Text,” and Gemini task automation as built-in capabilities. The price in the U.S. will be $1,599.
Gemini Intelligence Features Expanding Beyond Pixel
Until now, Google’s Gemini Intelligence tools—like “Create My Widget”—had been reserved for Pixel devices. Although some Galaxy phones have partial support, Motorola is the first brand to adopt the full suite for one of its own models. On the Signature 27, “Create My Widget” will allow users to simply describe the function they want, and Gemini will generate a working widget tailored to their request. Motorola confirms it will be ready from day one when the phone drops.
Voice, Sign, and Automation: What Comes With It
Besides widget creation, Gboard on the Signature 27 will support Rambler, which lets users issue long voice-to-text prompts cleaned up for clarity—with filler words removed and formatting applied. Also included is Sign-to-Text, a feature that translates American Sign Language via video input into English text. These features underscore Google’s push toward more inclusive and conversational input methods.
Gemini task automation is also part of the package. It enables users to assign tasks to the assistant—such as ordering food with DoorDash or arranging transportation with Uber—and lets Gemini handle the process through supported apps behind the scenes. These automation tools are already available on Pixels and some Samsung Galaxy phones, now extending to Motorola’s new flagship.
Motorola has opened pre-orders for the Signature 27 at the $1,599 price point in the United States. It aims to ship the Gemini Intelligence features out of the box, matching its November 19 launch date.
These additions signal a turning point: Google’s once tightly held Gemini tools are now reaching third-party vendors, though carefully selected. Motorola’s decision to integrate such features into its flagship shows an increasing openness in Google’s ecosystem to broaden Gemini’s reach, perhaps anticipating wider adoption. What’s worth watching: whether other non-Pixel manufacturers follow suit, how well these tools perform in practice beyond Google’s own hardware, and whether consumers find enough value to justify the $1,600 price tag.
