Smartphones are about to get a whole lot smarter as Motorola has announced that its next smartphone will pack a whopping 2GHz processor. To put that in perspective, that means that by the end of the year, you might be holding a cell phone in your hands that is more than twice as fast as the computers used to take man to the moon. By comparison, the iPhone runs at a bit above a 1GHz processor speed.

Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha confirmed the release earlier today, but was tight lipped on the details. According to Conceivably Tech, a source has claimed that the new phone will include everything that is technologically possible to be included in a smartphone, it will be Andorid based, and include a graphics card that will include Flash support.

Expect to hear more on this phone when details emerge. Expect to hear a LOT more.

If you’ve been shopping the best phone deals or are otherwise looking to save on a new phone, we’d like to turn your attention to Motorola. At Motorola right now you can get the Moto G Android phone for just $100. This is essentially an entry-level phone as smartphones go these days, but this savings of $70 from its regular price of $170 makes it a good consideration and one of the best Motorola phone deals you'll find. It’s not everyday you can grab a new phone for just $100, and you can save even more if you have an eligible device to trade-in.

Why you should buy the Motorola Moto G smartphone
You aren’t going to find the Motorola Moto G ranked among the best phones or among the best Android phones, but that doesn’t mean it’s a phone to avoid. And while we aren’t particularly high on the device in our review of the Motorola Moto G, the price point it comes in at with this deal makes it something worth considering if you’re in the market for a new phone. It comes in navy blue with 32GB of internal storage, which isn’t very much as modern smartphones go, but the Moto G does make up for it with some of its other specs and features.
