Motorola Moto X hits Europe, costs €429/£380 

Today Motorola announced that its Moto X flagship is finally hitting Europe. The handset will go on sale in UK, France and Germany on February 1 and will be available through a number of major retailers including Phones4u, Carphone Warehouse, O2, Amazon and Techdata.
In the UK, the black version of the SIM-free Motorola Moto X will be on sale everywhere for £380. You will also have the chance to get it for free as long as you are willing to sign a contract worth at least £25/month. If you are interested in the white version, your only choice will be Phones4u, which has secured a three-month exclusivity deal on it.

There are no specifics on the availability of the Motorola Moto X in Germany and France, but we do know that the SIM-free price will be €429.

There are no changes to the specifications of the Motorola Moto X with the smartphone still touting a 4.7" AMOLED display of 720p resolution and the X8 custom chipset with dual Krait cores. The camera is a 10MP snapper, utilizing a new ClearPixel sensor for improved low-light capabilities.

Unfortunately, the cool Moto Maker, which allows US customers to thoroughly customize their Moto X units won't be following the smartphone to the European shores. We are yet to see how the smartphone will fare without one of its key weapons.
