Motorola Launches 32GB Variant Of The Moto X In India

Motorola launched the 32GB variant of the The Moto X device in India on December 22 at Rs 32,999. 

The announcement was made by e-retail partner Flipkart, alongside dropping the price of the base 16GB variant to Rs 29,999. The variants with leather and wood backs (16GB) will come in at Rs 31,999, while the newly launched 32GB variant will be available only in plastic back options in Royal Blue and Black shades. However, the company hasn't done much in the way of offering the customization options via its Moto Maker tool in India. 

The Moto X features a 5.2-inch Full HD AMOLED display and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, coupled to 2GB of RAM. While other devices (cheaper and more expensive) do offer similar or better specs, the device stands out with exclusive features such as Moto's Active Display and always listening features.

Skype offering free calling from India to the United States and Canada

Skype calling from India to the United States and Canada is now completely free. And yes, this does include calls made to landline numbers as well.
The company has announced that it now offers free calls from India to the United States and Canada until the 1st of March 2015. While this is a long time frame and the holiday season is approaching, Skype indeed has a plan. Offering free calls means that Skype will literally double its user base and its new users will even get a chance to sample the audio quality and simplicity of placing a Skype call.
