Motorola is once again offering steep discounts on its last year flagship — the Moto X — to celebrate the back to school season.
If you have been thinking of getting a Moto X, now might just be the right time as the 16GB variant of the device can be purchased for only $299.
Motorola has partnered with VivaLnk’s to come up with an NFC based ‘digital tattoo’ that will make it easier for Moto X owners to unlock their device.
Simply tapping your Moto X back against the sticker on your arm or other part of the body will quickly unlock the phone, allowing users to avoid the hassle of entering their pass code every time.
OnePlus has had no problem selling its new smartphone — after all, who doesn’t want a flagship phone for $299? — but there have been tremendous problems with availability. The same can be said for the company’s official accessory lineup, but a teaser posted on Twitter today suggests its first SwapStyle cover will be available to purchase later this month.

A German court has ordered Motorola to stop selling selected smartphones in Germany to do a dispute over the design of their antennas. The company’s flagship Moto X, Moto G, and other devices infringe a patent for “Laser Direct Structuring” that is owned by German engineering firm LPKF.
The Moto X+1 is still a couple of months away from launch, but the alleged specs of the handset seems to have leaked on the Internet, thanks to a Brazilian retailer.
This is the same retailer who leaked the Moto E specs two days before its official unveiling, so even though the website in question looks shady, there is some credibility to this leak.
