In terms of raw hardware segment, the Moto Maxx is energized by a 2.7 GHz quad core Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor teamed up with Adreno 420 graphics unit and 3 GB of RAM. This hardware is supplemented with 32 GB or 64 GB of native storage space that cannot be expanded further as there no micro SD card slot onboard.

Launched with Android 4.4 KitKat operating system onboard, the Moto Maxx is upgradeable to Android 5.0 Lollipop. A 21 MP main camera occupies the rear of the Moto Maxx and it is backed by dual LED flash, 4K video recording support and f/2.0 aperture. There is a 2 MP front facer as well onboard for video conferencing and clicking self portrait shots.

The other goodies of the Moto Maxx smartphone include 4G LTE, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, GLONASS and NFC for connectivity. A 3,900 mAh battery powers the smartphone from within rendering a decent backup to it.

The Flipkart listing does not reveal when the device is expected to be launched or its approximate pricing, but it is expected that the launch will take place in the coming days. This should be priced somewhere close Motorola Nexus 6 and it will be interesting to note how much sense the price difference between the two makes.
