Moto X Force

Motorola today launched the Moto X Force in India, a key market for the company. The X Force is a unique phone in the company’s lineup and in the smartphone market right now, as it offers a shatterproof display making it a force to reckon with. 

The Moto X Force is also known as the Droid Turbo 2 in the United States. While the spec sheet of the phone is impressive in itself, the whole story revolves around its 5.4-inch Quad HD resolution display that is shatterproof. How shatterproof? See this video to find out yourself. Motorola is so confident about the display that it is offering a staggering 4 year warranty on the display itself — something that was previously unheard of in the smartphone market.

Beside the display, the X Force also packs in top-notch specs, which includes a Snapdragon 810 chipset, an Adreno 430 GPU, 3GB RAM, 32/64GB of storage space, and a microSD card slot. All this is powered by a 3760mAh battery with Turbo Charging support. The rear of the phone houses a 21MP IMX230 camera at its rear with an f/2.0 aperture and dual-LED flash, while the front houses a 5MP f/2.0 selfie shooter. The handset runs on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop right now, but its Marshmallow update is just around the corner.

The Moto X Force will be available to purchase through Amazon, Flipkart and offline stores like Spice Hotspot and Croma from February 8th for Rs. 49,999. This is the first time since it re-entered the Indian smartphone market that Motorola has decided to sell its smartphones through offline channels. At nearly Rs. 50,000, the Moto X Force is also the costliest smartphone in Motorola’s lineup in India right now.
