    The new Moto X is a far brawnier contender than its celebrated forerunner, and while it's lost something in its transition from petite to ponderous, it's also much more likely to succeed on store shelves. Join us for our Moto X (2014) video review, and then check out our full review at Pocketnow, available September 17!

    damn... you guys make some REALLY PROFESSIONAL REVIEW VIDEOS (i mean... yeah you guys are pros... but damn!)
    the language, the tones, the videography... this is just great...
    i know i should be talking about the phone, but the review is pretty darn good, and i though i should comment on that rather than the phone (i am thinking of buying it cause of this review)

  • @ProdByClockwerk
    @ProdByClockwerk 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    "A build of four fourty four". This was the best thing about the video. Michael is the beat cell phone reviewer on the planet.

    And speaking of awesome, I can't wait to buy the new Moto X, although it's a bit larger than what I hoped for, it packs way to many cool features not to have it

    Awesome review as always Michael. Thank you for being so fair, balanced and honest in it, even though we know you are a massive fan (and rightfully so) of the first gen X. I also loved the first iteration, but after watching this, I'm going to stick to my One m8. I'm surprised that the battery is so mediocre. The m8 battery is only slightly larger than last year's m7, but it's phenomenal. The optimizations they did with the snapdragon 801 are amazing, and I'm frankly surprised that Motorola, the optimization king, wasn't able to do the same.

    This is the best review of a phone I've ever seen! Micheal Fisher rocks (thumbs up). Looking forward to Galaxy Note 4 review. And this Motorola should've kept the previous back cover design with slightly large battery! Disappointed :-(

    I'm probably hooked on Motorola right now. After owning the last gen X for 4-5 months, and seeing the new one shine just as equally, I have to say that there is really something about Motorola devices that's charming, and truly great. Not to mention the great devices that are the G, and 360. Motorola is showing signs of that short term Google ownership, and in a really good way!

    Pocketnow I just love ***** for his review. He covers every aspect in his review.
    As always great review from him.
    And what i love about pocketnow is that this channel do their job very well with whatever resources they have, you guys are not racing for 4k like other tech reviewers. Some reviewer have lots of resources with them but their reviews are just not up to the mark.

      James Meagher I think it's right on time for those who love to customize their hardware. It's really the only device that does that.

      James Meagher true but this is a niche device.

  • @enricomdalcompare
    @enricomdalcompare 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Best choice of 2014 and I think early 2015. I'd love to say "Hello Moto" to wake it up. And I love active display and new motovoice. Gr8 job. Only wish they kept the 4.7 display, but anyway

  • @kreiger
    @kreiger 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Will the 1st gen Moto X be getting an update to have Google Voice and the customizable phrase instead of "OK Google"?

  • @NickKmett
    @NickKmett 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hmmm. Deciding between the Note 4 and the 2nd gen. Moto X.... not an easy choice! Still using my old GS3 that I preordered back in the day, so no question I need an upgrade. Just gotta pick which one! Any thoughts?

  • @PatrickFryer
    @PatrickFryer 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ill be keeping my first gen X. Not digging the non one handed use nor the battery life. Looks like some of the major concerns of the First gen were left behind and only appearnce upgrades have been made. Understandable when a company wants their product to shine in the jungle of flagship devices.

    Hey Michael, have you tried the new turbocharger for your moto x gen 2? I was hoping someone could review that as it's something that's not talked about, yet it can charge the new moto x to 80% in 15 minutes and I'm hoping someone can review that soon, cause that will be a huge advantage for me.

  • @JosephTongret
    @JosephTongret 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    As said by many others, the 2300MaH battery just isn't enough for my needs... I really do like the direction Moto has been headed in, and I hope to see them stay on the same path post Lenovo purchase.

  • @bizmonkey007
    @bizmonkey007 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Now that there's a battery case for this phone (a 4200 mah one, if I'm not mistaken), I can cover it a second look. The Moto X really seems like an amazing phone, but that battery life was a dealbreaker.

      @beasterbunny217 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good luck, they stopped making the 2013 Moto X

  • @mixsignal91
    @mixsignal91 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Phone looks absolutely great! Even better then the original but I must say I feel like this time the battery was a mistake. Moto surprised everyone last year with the moto x great battery life but this year it doesn't seem that they've been able to pull the same trick. Love my Z2 for its amazing battery
