The freshly launched Moto X (Gen 2) smartphone from Motorola is all set to begin its journey in India and as expected, Flipkart will be its exclusive seller in the country. But while its first generation cousin has been available for Rs 21999 since early this year, the new model has surprisingly gone for a much higher price tag than that.
Flipkart has tweeted that the Moto X (2nd Gen.) will cost Rs 31999 when it’s made available for purchase on its site at midnight tonight. And this is just its starting price which will apply to the regular model, as the leather and bamboo variants are expected to cost more.
The next-gen Moto X comes equipped with even more exciting software features than those that were found on its predecessor. These include the Moto Voice which lets you verbally issue commands to your device and even name your phone whatever you want.

Android 4.4 KitKat is the preferred OS of this Motorola handset of course and it’ll indeed be receiving the Android L update whenever it’s out. This phone ships with 16GB or 32GB of onboard storage, but only the former seems to have been reserved for India. There’s no microSD card slot present under the hood.
Here’s a deep look at the specs of the Moto X (2nd Gen.):
– Display: 5.2-inch SUper AMOLED, 1080p full HD
