Edit: Not that I doubted our source But the more confirmation the better IMO LOL

It's rare to have a lot of accessories until the phone is out for awhile. I know people have their own opinions but one of my favorite things about this phone is the feel in the hand. I could never feel good about dressing this baby.

It's just that the two previous iterations of Moto X had cases available from Moto on release day.

Is there a need to buy a screen protection for this phone?

If you don't want it to scratch...But some people go naked and have no problems.

Who wants to such a beauty in an ugly case.. No point customizing if you plan to hide it in a hideous case. Yeah sure protection .... I take the risk of breaking the phone than make it bulky and ugly.

That's kinda how I'm feeling too. I have my N6 in a thin TPU case, but that phone sees (and will continue to see) hard use in a garage environment. My Moto X Pure is going to remain naked I think. I can't bring myself to cover up the ebony back..........

Bumper and screen protector, but I ordered the standard back.

No. I'd rather Motonova concentrate on the guts of the phone and leave the extras to the people who specialize in cases, etc.

Really starting to sigh and shake my head at 'happy asian' mentions. It's.. just not what the letters spell

Much easier to remember!

I have the gen 1 and I do remember (thanks for the reminder) there were a few rubber covers from motorola but even their people were publicly stating you weren't going to want to put a case on this phone. It was a few months before docking stations, etc were available.

That's what their M4DE program was all about. The first and second gen Moto Xs launched with many more options than the Moto X Pure Edition.

Incipio has cases for it. I emailed Seidio to ask. Of course, I'll check out the included bumper first. But having a secondary case with kickstand/holster is a nice combo. But I don't want one of the really cheap ones from Amazon until I read they're good quality.

A clear bumper is included and I'll put a glass screen protector on it (already ordered).

Hi there

Which tempered glass screen protector have you ordered as I can't seem to find one?

Thanks

I had the iLLumiShield on my 2014 X and it was hands down the best screen protector I've ever used. I ordered them for the XPE already.

I am not really disappointed because I prefer aftermarket case anyway.

This. Aftermarket accessories are easy to get from amazon and usually cost far less

I've always used Fosmon branded screen protectors that you can get on Amazon for cheap and have always had great luck with their feel and protection. I've never tried the glass ones. Is it the way they feel that folks like about them? Or do they actually do a better job at protecting the screen than the film style?

They offer more protection, are very smooth, easily wipe clean (almost no fingerprint proof), easy to install.
