Motorola officially launched Moto E on May 13th in India and has been a successfully sold and is out of stock for now but there's some surprises we have in Store from Motorola.
You might not expect it but Yes, as our title says Moto E will be made available in Developer Edition and Google Play Edition soon officially from Motorola in coming days. While we had some chat with the Live assistance, here's what was revealed :

He/she said "I suggest that you stay tuned to see what surprise we have for you. We may be launching a Moto E developer soon."
When asked if it's a confirmation, it said yes but later in our conversation it denied the total confirmation. However, we will know if there's really a Dev and GPE editions coming our way.

I my opinion or a GPE They will not have a Dev edition because even moto g did not have that......and GPE it is my opinion that Google won't have such a low end phone when they already have moto g on there

As much as I'd love to have a Dev-Ed Moto E. I'm little skeptical about it. Esp for Indian market. We don't see much of the developer editions in India. Moto X does have one in US & Europe but they ditched Indian market on that too(even a normal 32 GB one isn't available).
Still, hopes are high.
Will these be available in India???

No Dev Edition will never be released in India and GPe cannot be shipped to India. So no there!
And I dont think Developer edition is coming as Moto X Dev Edition released earlier to moto X retail as they gave the phone pretty cheap and had quite a number of bugs.
Moto had an idea to release those devices to fuel up their hardware integration, once the learned in moto X, they never bothered to release it for moto G or I don't think they will for Moto E
GPe i can't say, it might!

I hope this happen i do want to get a developer moto phone.And i hope this happen.
No need of GPE.
A developer Edition is useful as there is no warranty issues
but Motorola uses pure Android version unlike Samsung
they don't customize there OS.
GPe gives faster updates, what about Motorola it released the updates within a week.
So no need of GPe phones by Motorola.
Hopefully your tip is true
Developer Editions are probably not popular in India due to the high price premium. Moto E was a handset made for markets like India. Given that there is also a huge android app developer community coming up in India, I believe this handset may be targeted at them. There are many people such as myself who have always wanted to buy a developer edition android, but they were usually unaffordable for me. If there is a Moto E developer edition, coming at under INR 8000 i.e. USD 130 (approx.) I will definitely consider buying it.
Given the Indian market, I would expect the developer edition to be priced at INR 7500 as the Moto E normal edition is currently priced at INR 7000.
Hope the tip is true and I am able to get my hands on one.

This is ballocks. There is no developer edition phone of Moto E and I dont think they ll even consider supplying.

Dev Ed are priced same as retail models. Only difference is the warranty is not void on unlocking it.
Apart from that, its the same phone.
And, as the above post says, there won't be a Dev Ed for Moto E and G.

Maybe a bit early but I am sure others must wonder the same thing:
We have android 4.3 based roms (despite 4.3 has not been released for our phone). - Personally I am super appreciative of this and think this demonstrate the coolness of android community development!
Now with Kit Kat released and looking super intersting (in particular the promise of a lower memory foot-print, and other highly valuable core functions) the obvious question is: Will there also be development for Kit Kat based ROMs for our phone? E.g. a CM base that others can build upon as is the case now with 4.3.
Having owned my razr HD +1 year now I still think it is a great phone! The bundled (stock) software is not perfect but the hardware (build quality + battery in particular) is super nice. Flashed with a well build custom ROM I really like my phone, even compared to friends newer models (samsung etc.).
I'll go out on a limb and say yes. Motorola just announced that the RAZR HD Dev edition will be receiving 4.4 KitKat in the near future.

Excellent!
Link to that quote?
Sent from my XT926 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Most likely from Motorola's OS Upgrade website that tells you their update plans for their devices at motorola.com/os, but that got changed to "This device is currently running Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean)
Future plan coming soon."
Most definitely it was a typo.
Here's the link
the difference between the dev edition and the global razr hd is just the bootloader. (correct me if i'm wrong here)
so the phones with unlocked bootloader could be able to install 4.4 from dev edition razr hd which would be awesome !
According to that link, the RAZR HD, will NOT have a kit kat update. Bummer, if that the case that would be enough reason for me to never buy another Motorola Phone, if not 4.4 at least we deserve a 4.3 official update. sigh.
I'm from Brazil and it is confirmed, the RAZR HD (XT925) will receive the KitKat 4.4 update, soon. There is the chat:

sorry, MORNING and THANK YOU. i was hurry. XD
I hope is true, now that Kitkat is officially out, we'll get more accurate info. That info makes me happy too
Edit.- Ok i tried the same chat trick, trough motorola México, and the response is that engineers are testing to determine whether the Razr HD would get and update or not. In this update I don't think it would depend on carrier, I mean it would at the point to whether I get it (X carrier) and my cousin don't (Y Carrier) well, I guess will have to wait. After all the hype google put into it and motorola now being a google company, one would think they will be more open about updates and such.

Its cool that you do some research on this. Thanks. Hopefully we end up getting Kit Kat!
As for the engineering testing: Somehow I think it would be a little for embarresing for Motorola if their 'about 1 year old product' would turn out "obsolete" for a upgrade that is supposed to run on only 512mb phones etc.
It may be factor that the XT925/XT926/XT905/XT907 may not get update as they are not Motorola X8 Mobile Computing System phones which Moto X, Droid HD, Droid Maxx and Droid mini are.

Agreed. But I still think it smells mostly like a 'business decision'.
Point being: If they don't update to 4.4. some people may be tempted to buy a new phone to get the newest (eg. a nexus 5 or motorola) = Cash win for Google (and maybe Motorola also).
On the other hand: Customers (myself included) will get a little pissed if they almost completely neglect updating their fairly recent top-line products (Razr HD). = Next time many will be looking elsewhere when out shopping a new phone to manufacturs that don't ditch support quite as quickly.
I like motorola's phone, but I for one will be thinking hard about buying one again if they ditch this upgrade. I don't they will though! I am optimistic and think we will get Kit Kat.
I'm up for renewal late this month, I can get a new Razr HD for free + a Razr D3(maybe for my kid) But, if in this time frame, we don't get the official word about update, not necessarily the update itself, but at least the promise of the update, I will move to another brand. The nexus 5 price seems very appealing.
4.4
Pay attention to the PA forums. there a guy CJ360 who has been putting Paranoid out with 4.3 daily driver. i assume he would jump on this and get us 4.4 goodness
No kitkat =no more Motorola
Phuk data isht
Don't count on that l!ar Pun!t Son! ...
Exactly the same hollow phrases were spoken over and over again one year ago.
Atrix users had been told "stay tuned for our upgrade plans" over months (round January 2012 it appeared that Atrix might eventually get ICS-Update).
Until november, when it finally changed to "Atrix will remain on Gingerbread".
SO: Don't expect too much. Be happy with what you have, the RazrHD (stock or CM10.X) already has a fine pool of roms to chose from and it is a great device - even with "only" Android 4.1.
Very nice Moto, don't give update to older model, instead push some fix for bootloader unlocking. dirty dirty...
Not that it is any excuse on Motorola behalf at all! But I think, what they don't tell us is that they are fairly dependent on Qualcomm (making drivers for the chipset, while they want to sell their new chipsets) + maybe the carriers (Verizon). I think Both Qualcomm and Verizon make big big bucks even if they have less contact with customers and are less know in generally. As for qualcomm they may becomming a bit like Intel that has much power even if they just "supply" to other manufactures.
If they (Motorola) don't deliver. We (the costumers) should keep complaining. Threating to take our business elsewhere rather than just buy a new "update" phone and keep the system alive with with manufactures(+ their suppliers) having no incentive to support their products.
here are some news:
these screenshots are from the motorola site,
this one was posted in this forum
and this one I did today
let's speculate for the next months, until we do NOT get any update
It appears that Motorola will unvieal something for Motorola fans in Europe, on the 14th.
Motorola will host a press event in the UK later this month, on January 14. The invitation to the event reveals that the company is about to welcome “a new addition to the European Motorola family of products” following the global introduction of the affordable Moto G.
Now, as exciting as the possibility of seeing a brand new Moto handset sounds, we are more inclined to believe that there won’t be such a thing in the near future. Instead, perhaps Motorola is finally bringing its Moto X to Europe (as you may already know, at the moment the Moto X is an America-only smartphone). This, of course, is just speculation, but it’s clear from the invitation that Motorola really has something new to show - albeit it might be new only to Europe.
January 14 is next Tuesday, so we have exactly one week before we find out what the upcoming event is all about. Meanwhile, we must also report that Moto G users in the UK are officially receiving Android 4.4.2 KitKat as of today (not too long after customers in the US got the update).

And I was about to pick up my Moto G tonight. Now I'm not.
That photo on the background is the same they used to announce the Moto X in the US:
And Live Chat from Motorola confirmed multiple times "Motorola is looking into bringing the Moto X to Europe.". That's their statement about the Moto X for Europe.
lets hope so, I'll have both then, G & X
Although on the UK moto website there's nothing there yet to indicate anything.
http://www.motorola.co.uk/home
I wonder how much the moto x will cost if it is brought to Europe.

So it looks entirely possible the X may be coming to the UK at least.

Interesting. I wonder what the price is going to be. I'll still be in time to return my Moto G
edit: To be honest, I reckon it's a bad time to release another phone here in the UK from Motorola. People are already struggling to find stock, and what's attractive about the Moto G is the price/performance. That's why I got one. The Moto X is their flagship, it'll be double the price.
Launch the Moto X at £250 simfree in the UK then i'm getting one , love the Moto G

Considering the price difference between the US and UK moto g's, i think that the moto x is going to retail for about 320-360 pounds. Let's hope for the best!

Wow. Why do people keep posting this crap? A Motorola CSR knows nothing about future updates. Motorola has confirmed nothing. The only thing confirmed is the Moto E will get "L". They confirmed that when the E was released.

Dude, put it this way. They have just released The Moto G LTE, it came on android 4.3. They won't just not release two new devices... 100% capable of running a new android version now will they..

From Matt (Forum Manager, Motorola):
It's a minor holiday for some people, but for us it's a biggie -- the day we update the Android Update News page for Motorola phones. And today is that day!
Once Android 5.0 Lollipop is officially released, we intend to bring this latest upgrade to many of our other Motorola devices as well. This includes Moto X (1st & 2nd Gen), Moto G (1st and 2nd Gen), Moto G with 4G LTE, Moto E, and Droid Ultra, Droid Maxx and Droid Mini. We're still working out the details on timing and the upgrade depends on our partners' support, so stay tuned to our software upgrades page for the latest and greatest.
There are a lot of well-known Lollipop songs - which do you prefer? I'm more into the oldies on this one.

I am not agree w/ u.Cuz they have already done lots of marketing adv for X and G in last few weeks. Next turn is for E.As they are not going to release 2nd gen E soon ,so we can expect that they will try to capture the market by competition w/ one by releasing L update for E.

I just received my Moto E DualSIM. I have no experience with Android and Custom ROMs. So I'm undecided: should I wait for official Stock Lollipop or try now if I'm able to install CyanogenMod KitKat? I think it will need even more extra time to get CyanogenMod Lollipop released.

Basically it is your choice whether you want to install CM or Stock rom. If you are happy with Stock Rom then no need to root your phone and wait till lollipop is officially released.

Do you think that the GPE will get the update to android l a lot faster then the stock ones? Considering the stock roms are nearly pure android, do you think there will be a noticeable difference?
How many days do you think the GPE will save compared to the stock one?
How many days was it in the past? Or how many days is it *usually* for motorola devices or even other devices for that matter?

I really don't know man. Pure logic says that GPE will get it faster because you will not depend on the carrier to release it, just Google. So once they push the button all the GPE devices will get it....
In another note, I feel that the GPE runs much MUCH fluid than the non-GPE.

Nope, the gpe is still developed by the manufacturer, but they must do it exactly by the book.

Yes I know, but I was refering to the carrier...so for example if you have Verizon, you have to wait until Verizon releases the update, not just Google and then Motorola. In the GPE, since it is unlocked you dont have to wait for any carrier to release it, so you are avoiding one step, hence I think is faster....

Great news, I had a really bad experience with my previous phone (Desire X) and updates. It got 4.1.2 3 months after release, but never saw another update after that from HTC. I think smartphones should be able to get updates from the OEM's for at least 2 years.
Most ironic fact was that I paid $300 for the Desire X, and $199 for the Moto G. Go figure...
Nope it hasn't...

Yup, paid 200€ for the moto G (in Romania, Motorola has no power here), and almost 300€ for the galaxy s3 mini... Galaxy s3 mini got the 4.1.2 update!!! From 4.1.1... And moto G is on a freaking list by Google, considered equal for updates as the nexus 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10 and the HTC one M8...
Not to mention my sister got the Moto E, the 150€ phone (here) with better support than the galaxy s5, which probably won't get lollipop this year, or even this winter... 600€ device, doesn't get software updates because Samsung is probably still stuck with their old TV update policy, which doesn't exist.
Whoop Whoop. such good news. Just got my Moto G GPE!
And soon Lollipop for GPE
