There aren't too many things in life that match the thrill of getting something of value for nothing. And when that something is a brand new second-generation Motorola Moto E, the thrill factor is raised exponentially. Here's the deal. Buy the second-generation Motorola Moto X unlocked (a.k.a. "Pure Edition") from the Moto Maker site, and you will receive a free second-generation Moto E (valued at $119.99). This deal is apparently open to U.S. consumers only.
The second-generation Moto X comes with a 5.2-inch AMOLED screen featuring a resolution of 1080 x 1920. It all works out to a pixel density of 423ppi. Driving the device is a quad-core 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 CPU with the Adreno 330 GPU handling graphics. 2GB of RAM is on board along with 16GB or 32GB of native storage. Unfortunately, there is no microSD slot on the handset. A 13MP camera is on back while a 2MP snapper adorns the front of the unit. The whole shebang is powered by a 2300mAh battery, and Android 5.0 is pre-installed.
The Moto E offers a 4.5-inch display with 540 x 960 resolution. That works out to a pixel density of 245ppi. A 64-bit quad-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon 410 CPU is under the hood with the Adreno 306 GPU crunching the grahics. 1GB of RAM is on board along with 8GB of native storage. A 32GB capacity microSD slot is available for those requiring additional memory. The rear-facing camera weighs in at 5MP with a .3MP snapper handling selfies and video chat. The 2390mAh battery keeps the lights on, and Android 5.0 is pre-installed.
If you're looking to buy the second-generation Moto X, this is a fabulous time to do so. With a free second-gen Moto E being offered with your purchase, you will have a second new phone to give to your kid, spouse, or a friend. Keep in mind that if you do want to take advantage of Motorola's largesse, you only have until the close of business on March 24th to do so.
