For example, as I prepared to get my day started on Saturday, I asked the Moto X what the weather was like and if I should bring an umbrella. My Moto X answered almost instantaneously, providing the answer as I continued on with my morning routine. [eap_ad_1] Before you can start issuing commands to the Moto X, you need to train it to recognize your voice first. It’s an easy and quick process, and Motorola walks you through it. You choose your own trigger phrase, and repeat it to the Moto X in a quiet space numerous times so that it can analyze your voice and remember which words you chose.
The Moto X’s touchless voice controls worked well in general, but you do need to make sure you’re in a quiet place for it to pick up your speech. I asked a question while I was sifting through my closet facing away from the phone, and the Moto X couldn’t understand my request over the sound of my shuffling and the loud creaks of my closet doors. That being said, the phone can hear you even if you’re several feet away from it in a quiet space.
The Moto X’s battery life lasted for a decent amount of time on a single charge. It wasn’t mind-blowing, but it’s more than enough to get you through the day. After moderate to heavy usage, the phone lasted for a little over a day, but it’s important to remember that battery life varies depending on your settings and how you use it.
The camera on the Moto X is decent. It’s not the sharpest I’ve seen, but it’ll do for taking casual photos. When compared to the Galaxy S5, I actually preferred the image taken with Samsung’s phone. Take a look at the photos of flowers and leaves below. The green in the photo taken with the S5 looks a little more lush, and the red flowers look sharper too.
Conclusion
It’s not an exaggeration to call the Moto X one of the best Android phones to come out of 2014. Its clean interface and tight Google Now integration make it truly feel like a Google-powered smartphone. Fans of stock Android that don’t particularly care for Samsung and LG’s skins will enjoy the Moto X.
Motorola improved the Moto X in all the right places. Its bigger, sharper screen and more premium design make it well equipped to take on the Galaxy S5, HTC One, and LG G3. Strictly in terms of aesthetics, I still prefer the HTC One’s all-aluminum build. But even a basic, non-customized version of the Moto X still looks and feels better than the Galaxy S5 and LG G3, in my opinion.
If you use Google Now a lot and are looking for a phone that’s simple and has a great screen, the Moto X is a great choice. (Business Insider)
