Yesterday was all about the Moto X4 and its US
availability - in both the newly unveiled Android One iteration and the usual
version with Moto software. Today the Lenovo-owned brand has news relating to
the US and another of its smartphones, namely the Moto G5S Plus. This was
announced in early August as the first member of the G line to boast dual rear
cameras, and it's now on its way to the US.
You can in fact already pre-order the G5S Plus from
Motorola's online store. You can have it in Lunar Gray or Blush Gold, and the
price is US$ 229.99 for an unlocked unit. That is, if you don't mind having 3GB of
RAM and 32GB of built-in storage. If you want 4GB and 64GB, respectively,
you'll have to pay US$ 299.99. Note however that these prices are in fact special
pre-order offers valid only until September 28.
Once the Moto G5S Plus becomes available on
September 29, it will cost US$ 279.99 (the 3GB/32GB version), and US$ 349.99
(4GB/64GB). When bought unlocked, the G5S will work with all major US carriers,
including CDMA-based networks such as Verizon and Sprint - and that's a pretty
rare occurrence at these price points.
