Anyone who is a fan of unconventional gadgets, they should know about Moto Z line from Lenovo. The super-slim smartphone that supports more features as quickly as you can say Moto Mod.

The thing is those phones are pretty much expensive and they don't have the best cameras. But not to worry about that Motorola announced several additions to the lineup on last Sunday, February 26th in Mobile World Congress. Let's start a discussion about new Moto Mods one by one.

Motorola debuted with a new Power Pack that snaps onto the Moto Z like an external battery. Indicated by trusted views, it gives any Moto Z up to 50 percent more power. The company said that this feature automatically detects the phone's level of charge, just need to replenishing the battery only when it's most efficient. It will be available at starting of March for $50.

One of the most impressive of Motorola's new Mods adds wireless charging capabilities to any Moto Z on the market. It features a glass design. There is a tiny box over the metal connector on the Mod to be charged and plugs into an outlet. It is designed to recharge any new and existing Moto Mod.

As per Digital Trends, Motorola's new Gamepad Moto Mod controls to Moto Z devices. It snaps on the back and adds two joysticks, a directional pad, trigger buttons, and a lanyard loop.

Now let's come to Amazon Alexa Mod, this is actually a voice service a set of APIs that allow hardware makers to integrate the Alexa voice assistant into their products. It will hit Moto Z devices later this year in the form of a specially designed Mod.

Now there is so many concept Mod or idea Mod which is preplanned by Motorola that might or might not make it in the market. Like a polaroid-like printer, robotics module, VR display and a multilevel docking station serve as a charger for multiple Mods.

Motorola's Moto Mods are one of the Moto Z's best attributes. Those pop-up events dovetail with Motorola's Transform the Smartphone Challenge, a competition that saw enterprising young hardware developers pitch ideas for Moto Mods at events in New York and San Francisco.
