Where to buy the Moto Z2 Force
July 10, 2025
After months of rumors and speculation, Motorola unveiled theMoto Z2 Force, the Lenovo subsidiary’s flagship smartphone for 2017. Based on the official details, the Moto Z2 Force looks to stand toe-to-toe with the rest of the flagship pack, though its ShatterShield display and Moto Mod support help the phone stand out.
The months of rumored details did have the effect of building up some anticipation for the Moto Z2 Force, and now that the phone is official with a capital O, the question now becomes when and where will it be available. Even though folks will have to wait a few weeks until they get to own the phone, at least there are several more ways to get it relative to last year’s Moto Z Force Droid Edition.
Moto Z2 Force U.S. availability
It bears repeating that 2016’s Moto Z Force Droid Edition was only available throughVerizon. Even though this was good news for Big Red customers, everyone else was left in the dust. Thankfully, the Moto Z2 Force does not follow its predecessor’s footsteps in that regard, since it will be available through plenty more outlets, all of which will be detailed below.
As for other small details, the Moto Z2 Force will be available in Super Black, Fine Gold, and Lunar Grey, the latter of which is an exclusive color forT-Mobile. The phone will also be available unlocked alongside its carrier-locked cousins, though it does not seem to be available for pre-order.
The important thing is that you have plenty of ways to purchase the Moto Z2 Force, which theoretically bodes well for the phone’s success. Regardless of where you buy it, the phone will go on sale starting August 10.
Additional retailers
If purchasing the Moto Z2 Force through the aforementioned U.S. carriers is not something you want to do, there are currently two other ways to purchase the phone: Best Buy and Motorola.
Sprint customers will benefit most from purchasing the Moto Z2 Force through Best Buy, since they have the option to pay for the phone over 24 months. Verizon and AT&T customers can also purchase the phone through Best Buy, but Verizon customers will pay a bit more each month than if they purchased the phone through Big Red itself. Even so, they do save some coin if they buy the Moto Z2 Force outright.
Best Buy does not show much love for T-Mobile, however – the T-Mobile version of the Moto Z2 Force cannot be purchased through the retailer.
Regardless of which carrier version of the Moto Z2 Force you pick, Best Buy will throw in a free JBL SoundBoost Moto Mod and six months of Kaspersky Internet Security.
Other regions
If you happen to live outside the United States, you’ll still be able to buy the device. Motorola says the Z2 Force will roll out to Mexico, Brazil, and various countries in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa later this summer.
That seems to be it for Moto Z2 Force’s availability so far. If we missed anything, do not hesitate to sound off in the comment section below and we will update the page accordingly. In the meantime, check out our existing coverage of the Moto Z2 Force and the new 360-degree Moto Mod camera below:
