The Motorola Moto Z3 Force will not land this year, or likely at all

TL;DR

  • Motorola launched the Moto Z3 yesterday.
  • However, it was expected to launch the Moto Z3 Force, which made no appearance at all.
  • Now we know, via Twitter, that Motorola will not release the Moto Z3 Force this year.

However, it did not announce the device it was expected to announce: the Motorola Moto Z3 Force.

Now, via the official Motorola U.S. Twitter account (@MotorolaUS), we know that the company has no plans to launch a Moto Z3 Force this year. See for yourself below:

Hi. We will not be launching any more moto z’s this year.

While the statement does imply that Motorola could release a Moto Z3 Force in 2019, that seems highly unlikely. It is far more plausible that Motorola is skipping the Force edition of the Z3 line and instead leaving it at only two devices: the Z3 and the Motorola Moto Z3 Play, which launched in June.

News

The previous two installments in the Z line – the Motorola Moto Z2 and the original Motorola Moto Z – both had Force editions. The Force moniker refers to the ShatterShield screen protection technology which makes the smartphone extremely durable while adding a noticeable degree of thickness.

It is not clear if Motorola is merely skipping the Force edition for this Z3 model or if it is doing away with the Force branding altogether. That seems unlikely, but it’s also totally possible.
