At Mobile World Congress, during a Q&A Session on Twitter, Motorola announced that they would finally be releasing their higher end phone the Moto X in Australia. The first sign of the phone arriving here has come in the form of a tip that Telechoice will begin carrying the Moto X in their stores.
Motorola Australia has so far declined to comment further on the announcement of the Moto X arriving locally, but the tip we’ve received says that Telechoice will begin selling the Moto X for $599. Unfortunately, there’s currently no release date for the phone, but we believe it could launch as soon as next month.
Dissappointingly, any hopes that the customisation service, Moto Maker, would also launch here have been quashed, with the tip advising that Telechoice will only offer the phone in Black or White.
There’s surely going to be an official announcement for the Moto X when it launches here in Australia and with its LTE support the Moto X could actually wind up on a carrier. We’ll be following up with all the carriers and Motorola on Monday to see if there’s any official announcements they wish to share.
