Snapping is the new flipping, meet Moto Mods


The Moto Z and Moto Z Force are now official and comes with modular add-on accessories called Moto Mods that snaps to the back of the phone using the high power magnets to add extra functionality. Motorola touts the Moto Mods to be the next era of mobile technology, and these include Moto Insta-Share projector, JBL SoundBoost, Moto Shells and PowerPack



The Moto Insta-Share Projector Mod can turn the Moto Z into a 70-inch projector, which can project contents to the wall or ceiling with 90 degree projection angle. The projector offers 480 resolution, 1:400 contrast ratio and 50 lumens nominal brightness. It comes with a kickstand so that you can project the content in any angle and with an integrated battery that adds up to an hour of extra screen time.


The JBL SoundBoost Mod is an audio-centric accessory  and once snapped to the Moto Z will take control of the phone's audio to boost the sound via its stereo loud speaker. It comes with a kickstand and also features an integrated battery that adds up to 10 hours of life.


The PowerPack will add up to 22 hours of life to the Moto Z and comes in fashionable design from Kate Spade New York, TUMI and Incipio. The Incipio offGRID Power Pack packs a 2200maH battery. The charge contained with the powerpack add-on, will only flow once the Moto Z battery is below 80 percent.



The Moto Style Shells are replaceable back panels that changes the look of the Moto Z. These shells come with premium material like wood, leather or patterned fabrics.

Motorola said the these Moto Mods will also work with furture generations of the Moto Z phones. The Moto Mods will be available alongside Moto Z and Moto Z Force in September. Unfortunately, Moto is yet to reveal any price information regarding the Moto Mods.


The company also announced Moto Mods Developer Program to develop new mods and it will be offering a Module Development Kit to developers. The kit contains all the tools required to build the modules. Need a little help with Moto Mods ideas? The Lenovo Capital and Incubator Group (LCIG) has set aside equity funds, and if your ideas are worthy, you may get help. The developer who comes up with the best Moto Mod idea by March 31,2017 will be rewarded $1 million.

The Module Development Kit (MDK) will be available for purchase from developer.motorola.com.
