Unlocked Moto Z and Moto Z Play will be released in October, prices revealed

Back in June, when Motorola announced the Moto Z Droid and Moto Z Force Droid for Verizon Wireless, it said that an unlocked version of the Moto Z would be released in the US later this year. If you're interested in this unlocked Moto Z, you should know that the handset will be officially available starting October for $699.99.

Motorola confirmed that it'll also sell an unlocked version of the Moto Z Play Droid (unveiled today as yet another Verizon exclusive phone). Like the unlocked Moto Z, the carrier-free Moto Z Play will be launched in October, though it will be cheaper, costing $449.99.

You'll be able to use the unlocked Moto Z and Moto Z Play on AT&T and T-Mobile, but not on Sprint. Both handsets will be compatible with all the Moto Mods announced until now, including the Hasselblad True Zoom camera module presented earlier today, offering features similar to those of the Z Droid and Z Play Droid. 

Let us know if you're planning to buy an unlocked Moto Z or Moto Z Play, will you?
