While I talked about Motorola's issues in the launch article for the new Moto X, it's well worth repeating. Motorola has been through a lot these past few years. Once the iconic symbol of Android with their Droid smartphones, Motorola had lost its way. It...
The new Moto X builds on this foundation. To start, the new industrial and material design are really one of the best in the industry. While it took a while for the look of the phone to grow on me, the improved in-hand feel was immediately obvious to me...

It's been a roller coaster of events for Motorola these past few years. As sales of their once widely successful Droid line began to dwindle, Motorola seemingly found new life in Google after the internet search giant officially bought them for $12.5 bill...

The original Moto X was one of our favorite smartphones of 2013. Between its solid feature set and fun customization options, the Moto X was a breath of fresh air in the crowded Android marketplace. Now Motorola has released an update to the Moto X and it...

Last year's Moto X earned “ Top Android Phone of 2013 ” honors from our staff even though it had some pretty major flaws. With its below-average 720p display and mostly-terrible camera, the overall package still bested the rest of smartphones in the game...
Is the new Moto X the best Android phone of 2014? That depends on what you need from a phone. If you want the best feeling phone of any 2014 flagship, one that can be customized to your liking, that still sports a 1080p display and powerful Snapdragon...

Sometimes, a phone can really surprise you.Just look at last year's Moto X . The phone bucked the trends of modern Android flagships, from its smaller-than-average size to its simple software and focus on real-world performance. As a result, the device de...

The new Moto X's front-facing sensors enable a couple of other practical additions: First, they allow the phone's display to automatically stay on longer when you're looking at it and shut off more quickly when you aren't. That's smart -- and it's worked...

The first Moto X, which debuted last year to muted consumer enthusiasm, didn't get caught up in the smartphone hustle. And that's what made it so great. While other Android competitors ran rampant with features and specs, Motorola used its brain to create...
When the Moto X came out last year, many people dismissed it because it didn't have the greatest specs. But, for a lot of people, it offered a solid and intelligent experience that warranted a place among competing devices like the Galaxy S5, iPhone 5s an...

Motorola never quite got the praise it deserved with the original Moto X , the company's decision to step off the specs bandwagon unduly masked by relatively uninspiring design. Now, the 2014 model arrives to rectify that, sharing the same name but steppi...
It's hard not to be impressed with the new Moto X. Its predecessor built a solid reputation among those "in the know" for its clean Android build and useful features, but its plastic casing and underwhelming display left it overshadowed on store shelves...

Confusingly, Motorola has taken the name from last year's flagship phone and used it again for this year's model: it's just called the “Moto X.” That's a shame, because this year's version is a big improvement. The new Moto X is blazing fast, smartly desi...

I'll be honest with you: When the first Moto X came out last year, some early apprehension soon gave way to unwavering fondness. It wasn't because of the sheer horsepower (there wasn't much of it) or a stunner of a screen (it was fine, at best). No, it wa...

The original Moto X, which debuted last year, was a different breed of smartphone. Rather than trying to build a beast with the best screen and the most horsepower, Motorola focused on the user experience above all else. The result was a phone that was so...
Yes. You should. Despite our gripes over the increased size, theres no getting around that its just a much better version of one of our very favorite phones. Its fast, its intuitive, the software is killer, the screen is great, and you can make it loo...

The Moto X was my favorite Android smartphone of 2013. A year later, and the landscape's changed. So too must the Moto X. For the second-generation model, which we'll refer to as the Moto X (2014) , Motorola decided to improve on the fronts that market tr...
Really Great) This year has been a great year for premium Android smartphones. There is the HTC One (M8), the LG G3, and the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. The Moto X (2014) is easily part of the group, too. Motorola's flagship is no longer a “mid-range” devi...

Motorola keeps making me ask "why didn't anyone think of this before?" First there was the Moto 360, a round smartwatch. Yes, round just like everyday watches humans prefer. With the first and now second generation Moto X, they've given us swanky material...
