Motorola 'Lazy Phone' Spot Gets 7 Million Views in 3 Days

Google brand pushes voice-recognition feature

Motorola's "Lazy Phone" commercial has garnered a whopping 7 million YouTube views since going live three days ago.

(He kind of looks like the singer for 1990s patchouli-rock outfit Spin Doctors.)

The core pitch lies in the brand's Moto X phone (parent company Google's lastest foray into the smartphone wars), which lets users play music and perform other functions via its voice-recognition software.
