As for the handset's specs, Motorola has already revealed the complete spec-sheet for its Moto X Style when the handset was unveiled in July. Ever since, there has been a lot of mystery around the handset's release in India. But the latest development shows we are finally nearing the official launch in the country.
Talking about the Moto X Style specifications and price
Moto X Style aka Pure Edition features a 5.7-inch Quad HD display with 2560 x 1440 pixel screen with Gorilla Glass 3 shield and 520ppi density. It is powered by a 1.8GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 with Hexa-core CPU (MSM8992), 3GB RAM and Adreno 418 GPU. On the camera front, things are fancy with a 21MP rear-facing sensor with CCT dual LED flash, f/2.0, PDAF and a 5MP front snapper with wide-angle lens and f/2.0 aperture.
Moto X Style comes in different storage variants, starting with 16GB, 32GB and 64GB, which can further be expanded up to 128GB using microSD cards. There's also a 3,000mAh battery to deliver impressive life and TurboPower charges the handset for 10 hours of use within 15 minutes. The handset runs on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and you can expect Marshmallow update as OTA download.
Other key features include water-repellant nano coating, 4G LTE support and front facing speakers with Smartboost.
We do not have any official confirmation on the pricing of the Moto X Style in India, but going by the rumours we are expecting a price tag between Rs. 22,000 and Rs. 25,000. It is quite a fair deal considering most smartphones with these specs are priced similarly. But it will be a great surprise if Motorola can get more competitive with the pricing at launch. What is confirmed is that the handset will be exclusively available on Flipkart.
