Motorola has officially re-entered China by launching three smartphones; the Moto X, the Moto X Pro, and the Moto G (4G LTE).

The news of Motorola re-entering the Chinese market surfaced earlier this month. The American smartphone manufacturer is now all set to take pre-orders for the Moto G (2nd gen.), the flagship Moto X (2014), and also showed off the Moto X Pro. The Moto X can be pre-ordered at a price starting at 2,999 CYN ($479), the smartphone will ship early February. The Moto X 2014 edition will be available in wood and leather back options and will also be the first device to run the Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system in China.

The Moto X and the Moto X Pro will come with LTE radios set for three major Chinese carriers, and the Moto G will be offered in two dual-SIM versions for CMCC/China Unicom and China Telecom. The Moto X Pro, which is similar to the Nexus 6, is exclusively designed for China. The smartphone features a 6-inch QHD display, 13-megapixel primary shooter, and a 3220mAh battery.
