The manufacturing will happen in Fort Worth, Texas, the same state due to benefit from a major job creating investment from tech giants Apple.
Motorola says that by being based closer to both its customers and its designers, based in Illinois and California, a smaller supply chain will see devices arrive with users faster than previously.
Jobs are open online via Motorola’s website now, with manufacturing due to start in August.
