Motorola knocks $100 off Moto X Pure Edition until March 17

Motorola has slashed $100 off the Moto X Pure Edition until March 17. The discount, which is only available on the 16GB model, brings the handset’s price tag down to just $299.99. You can also save $50 on the 32GB model.

Amazon is offering $100 off the 16GB Moto X Pure Edition if you want to bag one with Prime shipping, but remember that only Motorola offers Moto Maker, which allows you to customize the accent colors and finishes, and add engraving.

The Moto X Pure Edition boasts a 5.7-inch Quad HD display, front-facing stereo speakers, a hexa-core Snapdragon 808 processor, 3GB of RAM, and a microSD card slot. You also get an “industry-leading” 21-megapixel camera with 4K video recording, and a 3,000mAh battery with Turbo Charge technology.

Another advantage to buying your Moto X directly from Motorola is you can pay for it monthly with a Motorola Credit Account. The discount reduces the monthly payments to just $25 over 24 months, and most handsets ship in about a week.

But remember: This discount ends on March 17!
