Re: For the comprehension challenged, and for the curious, reviews re: specs being whined about:
Not sure if i should add other points, but for the curious (not for the challenged) here you go. : )
What every reviewer liked:
The body. They really liked it. (1 did not out of the over 15 reviews i've read or watched)
The touchless Always Ready, every reviewer liked it, one said he started using it as habit.
The other new features added, every reviewer liked it.
The speakers, noise cancelling technology that motorola has been working on for some time.
What every reviewer didn?t:
The camera
And a number of reviewers of Tech sites said they wanted the phone, $199 price and all.
Random summary comments:
BGR: the Moto X is the most amazing Android phone I have ever used, and I think most people will agree.
Android Guys: Since reviewing the Moto X, my Galaxy S4 has found its new home, a drawer.
Mashable: I like it more than the HTC One, which used to be my favorite Android phone of 2013
Wired: An excellent Android phone. Very very powerful. (Wired gave the X and 8/10, and gave the GS4 a 7/10)
PC Magazine: Even though the Galaxy S 4 retains our Editors' Choice, if I was to personally pick an Android phone right now, the Moto X would be my phone.
Gizmag: So, no, tech journalists don't tend to travel light. But with all that gear, the Moto X has become the go-to device for nearly everything over the past few days as we navigated our way to Durango and the epic San Juan Mountains nearby. This is particularly surprising given my wife's near addiction to her Galaxy S4 and the fact that most of my data and apps are loaded onto my Razr. I'm using the Dell laptop to type this review and the Kodak camera to take pictures of the Moto X, otherwise, those other devices have barely even emerged from our luggage.
There were 2/15ish reviewers that didn't find it anything special and another 2 sites said not perfect execution, a few said it is a great first step. Everyone else was: Nice going.
