Will Moto X Play and Style be on sale in Ireland?

I did see amazon being mentioned as a seller. If it's Amazon.co.uk we could be stung with the bad exchange rate but hopefully we can buy from Amazon france or one of those.

Fingers crossed as it looks like an amazing phone.

I have a oneplus one and am not really tempted by the oneplus 2. In fact I'm actually thinking that I won't bother upgrading for the time being but if I change my mind the Moto style would be my first choice. I had a Moto G as my first Android phone as I wanted something cheap to try out the OS (former iPhone user :eek:) and it was a great phone for the money. I seem to remember when the Moto X came out it wasn't available in the Ireland and the Motomaker site would only accept UK registered credit/debit cards

Going from near stock android to touchwizz would be painful and Galaxy note 5 edge would cost megabucks. Not convinced by the "edge" screens either too much distortion - I'd prefer normal narrower bezels.

It's a pity that Motorola decided to use IPS display for the new Moto Xs, but the design is still gorgeous in my opinion.

I'm actually pleased about this - never liked AMOLED. Unnatural over saturated colours and prone to ghosting especially with onscreen buttons my preferred option as capacitive ones are too awkward to reach and mean a bigger chin.

I suspect there is a better possibility of the Moto X Play becoming directly available here through the same channels (e.g. Argos) as the G and E, but the X Style will probably still need to be bought from overseas sources like Amazon UK, FR, DE, ES etc., or Orange.

Hope they go on sale here.
Bought a moto g2 a few months back and would upgrade to one of these.

Holy crap!
£265 is now €374

yeow, :eek:

It's a rotten exchange rate at the moment!

Well I suppose the option of buying them from Eurozone e-tailers like Amazon France, Germany, Spain etc. will still be an option, as a way of avoiding the crazy Sterling exchange rate, if they don't become available directly to Ireland.

Really hope they do decide to sell the X here, as I'd expect it also brings the possibility of Moto Maker coming here a bit closer if they have the full range of phones is on sale here.

On the internet it states about 300 dollar, what would be around 300 Euros with different taxes. But only if amazon.de delivers, like the new kindle, 140 Euro from UK and 100 from Germany, just won't deliver here.

I'd say that restriction only applies to Amazon's own hardware devices, because the German site says it won't deliver Fire TV or Fire Stick to Ireland either.
The European Amazon sites will definitely sell Motorola phones to and deliver them to customers in Ireland.

It's just a little over a month ago that I bought my Moto X 2014 from Amazon France. Also my previous phone, a first generation Moto X was purchased second hand from a fellow up the road a bit from me, but he had obtained it from Amazon Germany a few months earlier.

Have you looked at the terms of sale? Says no po boxes or mail forwarding, and a uk based credit card too. Ironic seeing as the company base is listed as Dublin. Looks like a no go to me based on that. Disappointing.

It's a pity we can't get them customised.
On the moto maker site, the royal blue looks pretty sweet

I'm also not so sure I'm happy on the price, but it's a nice looking phone!

Also available here from the German Motomaker. Not sure if restrictions apply like the UK.

Tried it the other day. They won't ship outside of Germany, same applies to France. Haven't tried mailboxde.com either but doubt they'll allow that to be delivered.
