Earlier this evening, we were talking about how some press renders of the alleged Moto X+1 surfaced online, thanks to @evleaks as a “parting gift” of sorts to the world of smartphone rumors. Having said that, it was also discovered that the Moto X+1’s possible release date might have been revealed, and the upcoming smartphone looks set to sneak in to be part of Verizon’s smartphone range. Not only that, it is interesting to note that an app was spotted on the home screen of the

This particular inclusion certainly got our grey matter thinking, since the very first Moto X from Motorola had one major advantage over the other smartphones in the market, simply for the fact that it did not come with bloatware associated with the carrier. Hence, if one were to make the jump to the Moto X+1 and b faced with such unnecessary apps, it might prove to be an uncomfortable change.
Word has it that the Verizon Messages app that comes pre-installed on the Verizon-bound Moto X+1 can be uninstalled if you do not want to use it, which is a good thing. Power to the users for being able to have a choice!
