If your favorite color is red and you’re in the market for a new smartphone that you can customize to your heart’s content (well, at least more than the others available now), then the 2nd generation Moto X might be the one for you. They’re now introducing a red leather option when you “create” your smartphone through their customizable Moto Maker, branding it under their hashtag #ChooseChoice.
The Horween leather back option, which previously comes in other colors like brown, gray, black, orange, blue but now, you can choose red as your color, making a striking look for your Moto X 2nd gen. They previously had a “football red” (the American football, not “soccer) edition, but this is only for the Verizon variant. But other than that, this is still the same Moto X that has gotten rave reviews from some tech enthusiasts.
It runs on a 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 quad core processor and has 2GB RAM and an option to get the 16GB or 32GB internal storage option. The Moto X has a 5.2 inch 1920 x 1080 OLED display, with a 13MP main camera and a relatively low 2MP front-facing camera, which may not be that ideal for selfie-loving folks.
The red color is only available through Moto Maker but only in the US, UK, France, Germany and Mexico markets. It will cost you an additional $25, just like the other leather back options previously, and that will be added on top of the regular off-contract Moto X which starts at $399.99.
