So, is the Moto X worth the extra cash over a Moto G? If you are buying SIM-free or PAYG and don't have or want a 4G service, then arguably not. The Moto G is such idiotically good value such that it beats every other mobile on the market hollow, if you a...

Great design and feel, Excellent performance, Near stock Android, Useful software enhancements
Poor battery life, Weak camera, No expandable storage, Slow charging
Despite some flaws, I really like the Moto X. It has a lot of charm and offers up a great Android experience. Motorola has brought all its engineering expertise to bear and it shows in how well the phone is constructed and how thoughtfully the software i...
Phone design and shape feel great in hand, Great build quality, Moto extras are genuinely useful
Camera quality is rather poor, No expandable storage, Back is a bit slippery
I really enjoyed using the Moto X. I think the software is nice and quick, and the design is actually rather nice to look at and hold. The only real let-down for me is the camera, as it's just too hit and miss. However, everything else on the phone is gre...

The Motorola Moto X has a sharp 1080p screen, a swift quad-core processor, nifty software and gesture features, and customizable design options that'll fit anyone's style
A minimalist camera, combined with no expandable memory, are the handset's only drawbacks
With the latest version of Android on board, as well as a bold screen and a good camera, the Motorola Moto X is a decent all-round phone. The Moto G has all this though, and costs half as much. Without the wide choice of colours the Moto X has in the US, ...
Runs using Android 4.4 KitKat, software additions are great, decent performance
Screen could be crisper, bit pricey, internal specifications don't match those of other smartphones in its price bracket
The Motorola Moto X's slightly disappointing internal specifications are by and large balanced out by its close to untouched Android 4.4 KitKat operating system and useful software additions. However, you can still get better value for money elsewhere....
Out-of-date processor, Poor low-light camera shots, Slightly overpriced
The Motorola Moto X isn't a bargain like the Moto G. And it doesn't have the specs to be a true top-end phone. However, the streamlined approach it takes to Android is exceptionally easy to get on with.Next, read our Best Mobile Phones Round-up...
Comfortable to use, decent screen, smooth performance, latest version of Android, largely vanilla user interface
Specs are sub-par compared to rival smartphones, not a 1080p HD display, camera is average, no microSD card slot

So why has the Moto X left us slightly baffled?There's no doubt this is a very good handset, and if you won it in a raffle you'd be chuffed to bits.With a fabulous screen, fast processor and decent battery, it ticks all the boxes.The camera isn't the best...
The Moto G is the problem with the Moto X. Basically, Motorola made such an incredible value handset that its more expensive offering would have to be something truly special in order to compete.Perhaps if you were to take into account the customisation t...
