We almost lost Motorola in 2013. But here we are in 2017 and the company is still in business. Motorola received a lifeline from Google four years ago because it was bleeding money by releasing way too many devices. Google revived the brand, and then it got passed off to Lenovo. There really hasn’t been a brand in the mobile industry like Motorola that’s underwent several pivots and...
The new Moto X for 2017 has been pictured ahead of its official debut. The handset appears to carry a dual-lens camera like that found on the iPhone 7 Plus and the LG G6, but its specifications reveal there will be no high-end Snapdragon 835 processor. Supposed images of the 2017 Moto X first surfaced back in December, but the handset contained in these images looks a...
An unfortunate side effect of the Moto Z’s rise was the death of the Moto X, a smartphone ahead of its time. But don’t go looking for the phone’s obituary just yet. According to new leaked photos from TechDroider, the Moto X is alive and well. Apparently, an all-metal version of the device is currently being tested, with a planned release for sometime next year. Images of the alleged...
With Lenovo pushing out a new pair of Moto Z smartphones you might assume the Moto X brand is pretty much dead. Not so, claims the company, though it wouldn’t confirm plans to launch any new Moto X devices in the future either In a statement to Android Police, a Motorola representative offered a somewhat vague explanation for the company’s future product lineup: Moto X is alive and...

Motorola U.K. is offering a killer discount on the second-generation Moto X (2014) right now, with a 32GB model available for as little as £219.99 (approx. $319) — with free shipping. That’s £195 (approx. $283) off its original price tag. The 2014 Moto X may be considered a little old now, but it’s still an extremely capable smartphone, packing a 5.2-inch Full HD display, a quad-core...
Motorola has already begun testing Android 6.0 Marshmallow for its new Moto X Pure Edition, the company has confirmed. But don’t get too excited; this doesn’t mean a formal soak test has started just yet. “There have been a couple reports of a Marshmallow “soak test” that has started for Moto X 2015 Pure Edition,” writes Motorola’s David Schuster on Google+. “Just want to make it clear...
Despite leaving the Moto X 2nd Gen off its list of smartphones getting an Android 6.0 Marshmallow upgrade, Motorola could be planning to update the device after all. Motorola has promised that the Moto X 2nd Gen Pure Edition will get Marshmallow, but the AT&T and Verizon versions did not appear on its update list — even though they’re only just over a year old. A forum manager also...
Motorola has published a list of devices that will get its Android 6.0 Marshmallow update — and it’s not good news for those with a Moto X 2nd Gen. Unless you have a Pure Edition device, you won’t get Google’s latest software. Motorola’s list doesn’t really have any big surprises, but fans will notice that only one variant of the Moto X 2nd Gen. is listed — and that’s the Pure Edition...
Motorola U.K. has slashed £155 (approx. $242) off the 2014 Moto X in its latest summer sale. The discount brings the price of a 16GB handset down from £395 (approx. $617) to just £240 (approx. $375). It may not be Motorola’s latest flagship anymore — that title goes to the new Moto X Style and Moto X Play — but the 2014 Moto X is still a terrific smartphone, with a similar external...
