Moto X+1 rumored to launch at Verizon on September 25

The oft-leaked but not so far announced Moto X+1 now gets a rumored release date. According to some unnamed sources, it should land at Verizon "by September 25".

Motorola has previously told us to expect the successor to the original Moto X to arrive in "late summer", and this is close enough - as summer officially ends on September 22. And the "by" in the release wording above could potentially mean that it might be out a little while before September 25 too.

And let's not forget that other carriers are expected to sell the Moto X+1 as well, so one of those may have it for sale before Verizon manages to.

There's nothing new to report on the front of a release date for the Moto 360 smartwatch, though. Obviously it could be launched alongside the Moto X+1, but this rumor doesn't say anything about that.

Yesterday we saw the Moto X+1 getting benchmarked, and having its Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chipset (with a 2.5 GHz quad-core CPU) confirmed along with 2GB of RAM.

Earlier reports and different mumblings also had it coming with a 5.1" or 5.2" touchscreen with 1080p resolution, a 12 MP rear camera, and a 2900 mAh battery.
