Motorola has released two variations of the X – Style and Play. The former is the spec and performance barnstormer (quad HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor, 3 GB RAM, 21.0-megapixel camera, et al!) and the latter is supposed to fit somewhere between the Moto G (3rd Generation) and the Style.

Unlike previous years, we don’t know much about what Apple & Tim Cook will be announcing at WWDC 2013 keynote today, which starts at 10am PT.

Unboxing After careful scientific examination of the box using TSA body scanners, we ascertain that there is nothing unusual about the contents of this package. After making two elephants stand on it to test its sturdiness, opening the box reveals… surprise, surprise… the phone, a charger with a reversible USB Type C cable which you will hate because nobody you know uses one (now you know how iPhone users feel) and a pair of earphones that sound probably as good as those Rs....
