## Description

The Moto X for Verizon is the first smartphone to meet your desire for responsiveness with the best delivery of Google services. It's faster because it hears your voice and responds with Google Now. It tells you what you need to know, even when you're not touching it. You'll also be able to stay informed without constantly turning on your phone thanks to the new ultra-low power notification system.

Review: A Thoughtful Phone - Motorola has put out a great phone here that has a lot of well thought out features. My phone history includes DROID Bionic, Samsung Galaxy S Note II, iPhone 4/5, and now the Motorola Moto X. The phone is well proportioned and has nice combination of responsiveness, battery life, and useful features. Here are my personal pros/cons: Pros: - Ergonomics: For me, this phone is the perfect size and is easy to hold for one handed operation or calling. - Battery life: After about 24 hours, my battery life is just under 50% with moderate use. I think I could easily go 2 days without a charge. - Touchless control or "Ok, Google Now": I really thought this would be gimmicky, but I ended up really liking it. It is very useful when you are driving and don't have to activate any button to make a phone call. There are many useful commands you can use with it as well. Recently, my 2 year old toddled off with my phone - being unable to find it, I yelled "Ok Google Now. Find my Phone!" - the phone started to making a ringing noise which lead me straight to it. - Notification system: Very handy. Just pick up the phone and the black/white screen will appear showing any notifications and options to go the message or unlock. Nice not having to push the power button every time I pick up the phone. - Wrist flick for camera: Another thing I thought would be gimmicky, but have ended up using a lot. Two flicks of the wrist and the camera opens - works every time. Has never opened inadvertently. - Responsiveness: Overall, very quick to open apps, browse web, etc. - Build quality: Very subjective, but the phone does seem to be very sturdy compared to cheap/flimsy Samsung Galaxy series Cons: - No expandable memory (or removable battery): This isn't a huge drawback for me now that I am using Google+ Auto Backup and Google Music as I don't have to store as much on the phone itself. Conclusion: This is a great all-around phone and has a unique feature set (for now). It may take you a couple of hours to get to the Kit Kat version of Android. When I first got the phone activated, etc. - it downloaded and installed three massive updates separately with reboots in between.
Review: Best phone i have ever owned, and I've owned 5 total - This is hands down the best phone I have seen/heard of/used/owned since the original droid came out years ago. The OG droid still is my favorite phone so far, due to it still working in a usable way and not having to be bogged down by anything. This phone's only problem is the locked bootloader. Buy the developer phone and it will have none of my cons. i'm not doing a long review, but if you want to konw, go to reddit and look at the subreddit moto x to get an update of what people feel about the phone and how it really is to own one. Only thing i can add if you are researching this phone, a lot of negative things come up about battery life. The battery life is awesome if you get the settings right. By that i mean there is this one thing called the art cache(Android Run Time) that can be enabled on this phone that allows me to get days off a charge it has also helped some friends of mine on the battery side too. on a light day i maybe loose 30% after 12 hrs. on a very heavy day i can drain it in under 5 hrs, but that's using it as a gaming device. Get this phone!! I know you may think, 'well it's not the fastest processor' or 'it doesn't have a 1080p screen' or 'you can't remove the battery'. Remember back in the day of the just ipod? no video, no internet, no nothing. if it crashed what did you do? open the case and remove the battery? i don't tihnk so, you held down the hardware reset keys. Just like here. It's nostalgic to me. the non 1080p screen. Really? you can see the difference? wow. i still use 1080p on a 50' tv and i think the quality is absolutely fantastic. i don't need that compressed down to the size of my hand. not having that also allows it's weaker gpu to perform better than the others. not the fastest processor? i beg you to show me anywhere i need it. just because it's lacking in that aspect doesn't make it not the most responsive phone on the market ever. i think it very well may be. i have used it stock for over 2 months now. still acts like the day i got it. i have thrown it down stairs, no case on. and there are no blemishes at all. The stock android is not bloated down with other tasks so you actually do see an improvement on speed in almost all cases over the competition. go this phone! If you haven't tried google now or active notifications, they have changed the landscape of how i use a phone. i will only buy phones now that incorporate those features. i hope to achieve that is why google sold motorola.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great low priced Android phone
*by J***U on November 25, 2013*

Overall I have been very happy with this phone and would highly recommend it. This is a great Android phone for an unbeatable price. I have been using it for about 10 days now since purchase. I'll hit a few things here that I like and a few areas for improvement. The four stars is simply because I have suggestions for improvement that should be implemented. My previous phone was a Motorola Droid 4, so any comparisons are to that. General Use/UI: The almost stock android is great. The UI is very quick and has not locked up on me. There's no visible indication at all that this phone is not at the top of the specs. My Droid 4 would occasionally have trouble keeping up on the UI. Physical Design Coming from the Droid 4 which was thick due to the physical keyboard, this phone is MUCH thinner and somewhat lighter. It feels good in the hand. The screen size is just right to handle with one hand, and the power and volume buttons are also located well for one handed operation. Fingerprints don't show on the back and are easily wiped off the screen. Overall seems sturdy and well constructed, though I'm a little concerned about the volume and power buttons eventually having problems. Camera: After figuring out the gesture to unlock the phone (twisting wrist twice) I have found this feature to be very nice and has always activated the camera very quickly. Camera images and video are of comparable or better quality than my Droid 4, but the camera app is MUCH faster to activate. Active Display I thought I would have no use for this feature and would disable it, but I've found it's kind of nice to be able to pick up the phone and then unlock it without having to find and press the power button. You can also go straight to a notification from the active display, but if you have a pattern lock or pass code you still have to enter that, kind of defeating the purpose of it. I have noticed that the active display does seem to turn on more often than it should (sitting in a locker at the gym, sitting on my leg while driving, etc) but it does not appear to have a serious impact on battery life. Battery Life I'm pretty impressed so far. It gets through a whole day of moderate use (which for me means a bunch of texting, checking Facebook and twitter several times, and running some other apps several times). Usually by the end of the day (starting at 8:30am and being ready to plug in at 10:30pm) I'm hovering in the 20-30% range. I am on Wifi for a large part of my day, and I know that helps. I did notice what I thought was more significant battery drain in a low signal environment (leaving it in my gym locker), but worked around it by connecting to a nearby open wifi network. I'll be very curious to see how the battery holds its ability to charge after 12-18 months. Moto Connect This is a very useful addition for those who are in class (like me) and want to see who's calling or who texted without having to check their phone. However, it needs some work. I had some initial trouble getting it set up (had to go activate it on the phone, it looked like it was going to suggest it to me at some point soon). It also frequently does not sync correctly and has to be re-opened on the computer to force it (this usually happens after I send a message, the message I sent doesn't show up for a few minutes on the computer, but sends immediately from the phone). That being said, I haven't had it fail to send or receive messages yet. It cannot handle multi-media messages, only SMS. I also don't like that it's integrated into Chrome, but Google made it so I guess I can't blame them. Most of the problems with this seem to be on the Chrome side, not with the phone, and I would expect these to be fixed without having to change out the phone. Voice Activation I've found this kind of nice, the phone wakes up about 75% of the time when I use the wake up phrase. When it does, it does a good job of recognizing my voice and what I want it to do. Setting reminders using this is awesome. So is asking it to call someone or text someone. My one big complaint about this is that if you have a lock of some kind (I use a pattern lock), you have to enter it before you can do a lot of functions with voice. My suggestion of how to fix it: Have an audible pass phrase or pass word that you say to unlock the phone. Entering the pattern most times is not a problem, but when driving, cooking, or other times you have dirty or unavailable hands, it would be awesome to use an audible password to unlock. That covers everything I have on this phone for now, I'll come back and update it if I have anything to update.
