The first product of Motorola’s big union with Google is here — The Moto X, which is expected to end the rising specs war in Android for good. We find out how good the smartphone really is.

The Moto X is the first smartphone by Google. So little wonder that the company is giving it so much press time. The biggest USP of the phone is that the users will get a largely customisation-free version of Android 4.2.2.

A few pixels of the AMOLED will light up during incoming text or message. Users can tap on them or swipe them away to read or refuse the text.

The Active Display functionality will helps in lengthening battery life. The Camera app’s UI is also different from stock and can take pictures with just a tap and burst images with a tap-and-hold. So even though it may look and feel like stock, there’s a hint of Motorola in the OS.

The Moto X is a breath of fresh air – perhaps, even a welcome change – in a market, which lays too much importance on hardware specs and less on the experience. It does not have the best octa-core processor or the largest, most dense display, but it champions good sense and adds a bit of fun while at it, and that’s a wonderful thing.
