Motorola's upcoming flagship smartphone, the Moto X (2016), was said to have been spotted on Geekbench recently. The fourth-gen Moto X is said to be running Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow and powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, the Adreno 530 GPU and 4 GB of RAM.
As the launch of the new Moto X draws nearer, Motorola has launched a great offer concerning the flagship device's older models.
The 32 GB model of the Moto X (2014), the second-gen version of the smartphone, is now being sold for only $200 on the official Motorola website. The new price represents a $150 discount on the original price of the smartphone.
In addition, customers can still apply all the customizations that they would want on the device through the company's Moto Maker program. With a low base price, customers can also afford to purchase add-ons to the smartphone, such as additional memory to take its storage to 64 GB for $50 or a wooden back for $25.
The storage upgrade, however, is only available for the Pure Edition model of the smartphone, which will only support GSM networks such as T-Mobile and AT&T. This is also the only model available for the offer, which means that Verizon and Sprint subscribers will not be able to participate.
Not all designs are still available for the Moto X (2014), which is understandable given its age. However, the available designs are still plenty enough to provide users with several options.
While certainly no longer as advanced now as it was during its first release, the Moto X (2014) is still a very capable Android smartphone. The device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810, the Adreno 330 GPU and 2 GB of RAM, which while paling in comparison to the upcoming Moto X (2016), makes it on par with the current mid-range Android devices in the market.
At only $200, the Moto X (2014) is a steal. With specifications good for a mid-range smartphone today and support for Android 6.0 Marshmallow, customers looking to acquire a new Android device should take advantage of this offer.
