If there’s one mobile company that urgently needs some serious PR help along with better products then it’s Motorola. It’s been ages since we talked about any Motorola phone and that’s pretty obvious because they haven’t made any phone lately that made us “wow.” As if their inability to launch neat and better products wasn’t enough they have now resorted to stupid marketing gimmicks to sell their phones.

Motorola has announced to bring a newer version of their Aura mobile phone. The new version will be called Motorola Aura Celestial Edition. Motorola is celebrating the the 40th anniversary of first moon landing by Neil Armstrong and his crew.

This bears special relevance to Motorola because the wireless transmitters made by the company were used for communication by the astronauts on Moon.

Motorola Aura Celestial Edition will have special clips and images captured during the historic feat. There will also be a laser made inscription and 9 post stamps on the handset to commemorate the mission.

The phone will be launched this month and it is expected to be priced a little more than the Aura. Aura was priced at $1,967. You can actually buy a car with that much money in India. Nice try Motorola but we are over it.
