Motorola ATRIX 4G, the latest Android-based smartphone that AT&T made available for purchase on its airwaves, is set to become available for purchase via Costco for only $119.99, less than what AT&T and other retailers as for it, if the latest reports on this are to be believed. The price tag would be put in place upon the signing of a two-year contract agreement with the wireless carrier, and is available for those AT&T users interested in upgrading their devices as well.

Apparently, the deal would be even sweeter than that, as the retailer reportedly plans on throwing in some free accessories as well, including a case, a car charger, and a wired earpiece.

The entire deal would include about $15 in taxes, but it still sounds much more appealing than what Amazon or other retailers offer at the moment.

Not to mention that Costco’s top notch customer service and warranty would be included into the mix as well.

What should be noted here is that the $119.99 price tag reportedly applies only to the first smartphone that one would acquire in a family line. Subsequent lines 2-5 would have the device priced at $149.99. The smartphone is expected to become available via Costco stores later this week, but it's uncertain whether the retailer would launch it at a later date, or the device was sold out the very first day of availability.

The Motorola ATRIX 4G is the most powerful Android-based smartphone in the world, packing a dual-core application processor inside, along with 1 GB of RAM.

The Android mobile phone also comes with great connectivity options, including support for AT&T's enhanced network, as well as with great multimedia capabilities.

It sports a 4-inch qHD touchscreen display, a 5-megapixel camera with HD 720p video recording capabilities, GPS receiver, and support for various Google services, including Google Maps, Search, YouTube or more.
