We return to the Moto X, looking at how Josh’s daily driver has held up months after he got it. We also look at why it’s one of the current Android favorites, even if some news this past week has somewhat unsettled us. This is the Moto X, now.

Bring this phone back with an edge to edge screen in a similar sized body, the same software philosophy ( near stock android with minor enhancements), and a general update to the hardware while keeping it aesthetically similar. Seriously can't think of another android phone that made me feel so happy to use it. Its like the miata of phones.
The future:. Lenovo ruins motorola – like the moto x4
What about… now
still hasnt gotten lollipop in US
User experience > specs. F*ck the specs wars.
You are one eloquently spoken character.
Great reviews.
Keep it up Josh.
Thumbs up for the Bioshock infinite wallpaper

moto x hand too
They all were not made in USA. Are you guys drunk?
I'm looking to get a new phone, My price range maxes around $400 to $450, and I don't do contracts, the only ones I'm really looking at are the Moto X, the Nexus 5, and the Oneplus One, I like the look of the 32GB nexus 5 a lot, but for just an extra 25 bucks I can get a 64GB moto x customization and all. And I know the 64GB oneplus is only $349 but with that silly invite system, I can't really get one of those. What should I do?
I have always been moto reliant. Best phone always. If you want a "phone" that plays games, takes pics, has fun gimmicky accessories and some funny tv commercials the consumer pays for,, have fun with samsung, lg and whoever else. If you want a phone that functions as a PHONE,, moto has always been on top. I own a const company and moto has always been the best, but my kids like the gimmicky BS and use samsung. When they get older, I hope they realize what the true purpose of the "mobile phone" is. Ironic an asian guy is touting a phone that USED to be made in the USA.
Moto X just simply ROCKS! I love mine.
i like everything except screen size to small
Ahhhhhhhh, but NOW (July 31st), I read an article dated back in MAY that the factory is shutting down and moving all their North American production overseas. The factory is already down to about 700 employees from a few thousand.ÂÂÂ
Just ordered mine y'day and should be here next week, but by the end of this year, they will no longer be able to tout "Made In America" or brand the phones a/more.
@***** I'm thinking of getting the Moto X sometime this year.  Do you think it'll be updated to Android L?
How did you get the google launcher on it?
It is now made in China.,,,
