The first smartphone to be made in America has not set any sales so far, and Google’s Motorola is hoping that will change as the Moto X rolls out to more carriers. AT&T was the first to get the customizable smartphone, and now Verizon Wireless, Sprint and T-Mobile have the phone as well.
Pricing varies widely. Verizon is selling the phone for $50 with a two-year contract until November 18. That’s half the price AT&T is charging. Sprint is offering the Moto X for free to customers who start a new contract. And T-Mobile, which no longer has contracts, is selling the Moto X for $500.
Meanwhile upstart Republic Wireless, which offers service plans that start as low as $5/month, is selling the Moto X for $300.
