From there, you can set reminders, send text messages, make calls, and tell the phone to navigate to a location. ![]() You can set what you want the launch phrase to be, so only you can activate the voice features. While most phones have basic voice controls, the Moto X takes them to another level. The Moto X’s other standout feature, Moto Voice, is what will make me recommend this phone to everyone I see. Unless you unlock the phone, the screen is only lit up for a few seconds, and I haven’t noticed any negative battery impact. The infrared sensors on the front and accelerometer inside are very good at detecting motion, so you don’t need to use any exaggerated movements to get the screen to activate. When you get a notification, you can choose to unlock the phone straight into that app, or unlock it to the home screen. If you lift up the phone, or wave your hand over it, the display will show the time and any notifications you have. The power button and volume rocker are very easy to reach, though thanks to the Moto Display feature, I didn’t use the power button very often. Despite the larger screen, I’m able to text one handed, something I haven’t been able to do in years. The Moto X is just a hair narrower than past phones I’ve used, but that hair makes all the difference in the world. I’ve ordered a case and will review that when it comes in. The included bumper is nothing to write home about, it’ll do in a pinch but if you want something with a little more grip you’re better off getting a third party case. For full disclosure, I charge the Moto X every night using a much less powerful charger, and only use the Turbo Charger when the phone is dying and I need more battery to get me through the rest of the day. Be aware that it will also cause your phone to get very warm while it is charging. The charger works very fast I was able to get from dead to 80% charge in just thirty minutes one morning. The charger is all one piece, so if you are interested in connecting your phone to your computer, you’ll need to spend a few bucks for a separate cable. Included in the packaging is a small tool to open the SIM/SD slot, a plastic bumper, and a Turbo Charger. Even when my hands were a little sweaty or dirty, the phone stayed firmly in my hand. One trademark feature of the Moto X line is the dimple in the middle of the back providing a contact point with a person’s index finger, and after a few hours of using the phone, my finger would automatically go there when I reached into my pocket to grab the phone. The default plastic back is a nice, soft touch material that is ridged and very easy to grip. Despite the larger screen, the design and material choices meant the Moto X stayed put. One thing that I immediately noticed when I started using the phone was how easy it was to hold. The Moto X Pure Edition is just slightly narrower than other phones I’ve used, and it makes all the difference in the world ![]()
