NEW YORK, July 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The Moto Z
Droid and Moto Z Force Droid, powered by the Verizon network, and
new Moto Mods are available for pre-order online beginning today.
Customers using these groundbreaking smartphones will experience
smooth video viewing and streaming, fast social sharing and
crystal-clear calling on the nation's most reliable 4G LTE network.
The smartphones will be available in Verizon stores on July 28.
"Together with Motorola, we're fueling the smartphone
revolution, and fostering the development of new ideas that are not
only changing the wireless world we know today, but redefining the
future of technology," said Jeff
Dietel, vice president of Wireless Devices at Verizon.
"There's truly nothing else out there like the Moto Z Droids. While
these phones are powerful on their own, when you combine them with
the new Moto Mods you transform them into powerful devices that
take you way beyond a phone."
Moto Z Droid — A platform for the
future
Moto Z Droid and Moto Z Force Droid work with the Moto Mod
ecosystem, yet offer distinct design features that can be tailored
for your lifestyle. The Moto Z Droid is the thinnest premium
smartphone and was designed so you can add powerful capabilities to
your phone without adding a ton of bulk to your pocket.
The new Moto Z Force is the world's fastest charging smartphone,
delivering up to 15 hours of use in 15 minutes. In addition, the
Moto Z Force Droid has the same great innovations from previous
Droids, like a guaranteed shatterproof display. Moto ShatterShield
set the standard as the world's first smartphone display guaranteed
not to crack or shatter. The new second-generation ShatterShield
features narrower edges and a thinner design, yet it's still as
strong as ever.
Both Droids also support Verizon's Advanced Calling, meaning
when you call another compatible smartphone, you get calls that
sound like you're having a conversation with someone in the same
room instead of across the country. You can also start a video call
right from the calling screen with just a tap.
The Moto Z Droid is available for $26 per month (0% APR) on Verizon device payment
or $624 full price. The Moto Z Force
is available for $30 per month (0%
APR) on device payment or $720 full
price. Get up to $300* off the
Verizon-exclusive Moto Z Droid or Moto Z Force purchased on device
payment when you trade in a select smartphone. When you buy a
Motorola Mod, you'll receive 20% off each additional Mod purchased
to instantly convert your new phone into a projector, boombox,
battery powerhouse and more. Not with Verizon? Now is the time to
switch and receive up to $650** to
pay off your old phone or contract when you trade in your phone for
a new one.
Moto Mods
Moto Mods instantly transform your Moto Z Droids into entirely
new devices, like a portable theater, a wireless speaker or a chic
fashion accessory with built-in power and wireless charging
capabilities. Moto Mods magnetically snap onto your phone,
seamlessly become one with it and are easy to swap out.
The following Moto Mods will be
available beginning July 28:
