‘Shatter-Proof’ Moto X Force to Launch in India Today

Moto X Force, internationally called Droid Turbo 2, is all set to release in India today. The phone is dubbed as “shatter-proof” for what Motorola claims is its unbreakable display.

The company has been coming out with teasers the past couple of days, taking a dig at Apple, Samsung and HTC and performing break tests with their devices. If we are to go by the teasers, Moto X Force does indeed appear to be a tough, unbreakable device.

On the specs front, Moto X Force would be powered by Snapdragon 810 octa-core processor and 3 GB of RAM. The phone is expected to have a 21 MP main camera and a 5 MP front camera and come with a price tag in the Rs. 40,000 range.

Let’s see if the phone is truly as strong as Motorola is making it sound to be or if it would be another downer after all the type. You can catch the live-streaming of the official event which starts by clicking on the link below. Stay tuned for all the latest updates.

New Moto X Force Teaser Takes a Dig at Samsung This Time

Motorola has come out with yet another teaser for its latest device, the ‘shatter-proof’ Moto X Force. Following suit with the previous teaser which mocked iPhone 6s for its delicate body, the new one takes a dig at Samsung Galaxy S6.

Though the new teaser isn’t as witty as its predecessor, the message is just as clear. Moving away from Cupertino, Motorola has now taken the challenge to the Korean tech-giant.

The highlight of the device is its super-hardy screen. Motorola claims to have integrated a ‘Moto Shattershield’ technology in the display of Moto Force which, it says, is the first shatterproof screen in a phone ever. The company feels confident enough to affirm the screen would stay intact for up to four years, owing to the multiple layers of different materials used in making it capable of absorbing shock and providing protection against cracking. The phone also boasts of two touchscreen layers, which make sure that the smartphone can be used even if one of the layers is cracked.

Needless to say, Motorola cannot stop talking about its first ever shatter-proof phone in the world. Let’s see if Moto X Force manages to live up to all the expectations. Watch this space for all the updates

Motorola India ‘Shatters’ iPhone 6s in New Teaser

Motorola India yesterday launched a teaser for its upcoming Moto X Force smartphone. The device’s major highlight is its shatter-proof display which is gloriously demoed in this teaser while taking a jibe at some other well-known smartphones out there including the iPhone.

Today it has taken the fight directly to Cupertino-based tech giant, Apple. In a new video shared through Motorola India’s YouTube channel, the company takes a jibe at the iPhone mocking it for the infamous “bend-gate” situation that iPhone 6 users had to face. It further shows an iPhone 6s being dropped from an unspecified height (we’re guessing 10 feet) and switching to the next shot to reveal that the iPhone’s display has succumbed to a gruesome end.

Moto in the video starts by saying” First they bend, then they, break”, and ends it by saying ” and then they choose” followed by the Moto X logo with the words “coming soon” beneath it showing up on screen. Well, if this is what they did to the iPhone, we can only imagine what the marketing team at Motorola has in store for the other big dog in the market, Samsung.
