Motorola One 5G UW Ace With Ultra-Wideband Connectivity Debuts

Motorola One 5G UW Ace was launched on Thursday as a new Motorola 5G phone exclusively available on Verizon. As the name suggests, Motorola One 5G UW Ace supports 5G Ultra-wideband connectivity to deliver a faster experience. There is also Verizon’s Adaptive Sound system that is aimed to deliver a spatial audio experience and compete against the likes of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. However, apart from the two major changes, Motorola One 5G UW Ace is quite similar to the Motorola One 5G Ace that debuted earlier this year.
