Also its not really even bezel like a normal phone. The sides wrap to meet the glass to give the sides a curved feel.

My black/walnut/silver accents arrived at my friends place in USA. Can't wait a week till I see it in Person here in Russia. Here is the photo of this gorgeous device.

I wish you have a great walnut pattern! :)

Thanks. I've already sent a bamboo back for being covered in bumps

I was too impatient to wait for customization when the Moto X was originally released, so I got the woven white model from Verizon.

I have been using smart phones for years and I am always careful with them; I have never broken a screen... Until now. About two weeks ago, I dropped my Moto X in a store; the edge of the phone hit the edge of a metal shelf and cracked the screen. It wasn't a bad break, but still devastating. It was going to be $200 for Motorola to fix it (plus taxes, etc). I figured, for a little bit more money I could just get a new, customized Moto X and have my white one as a backup.

So, my new Moto X in all her glory...

Raspberry (just call it pink) back, black front, and orange accents. Orange is my favorite color, so I was determined to get it in there somewhere.

I also ordered the orange Air Grip case to cover up where the black front and pink back would meet. Unfortunately, the case's orange turned out to look a little 'washed out' compared to the rich metallic orange accents.

I didn't want to just engrave "designed by..." but I couldn't think of a phrase I was sure that I wouldn't get tired of. I opted for an emoji: 8D
[Moto X General] jonnythan:
Woven black and royal blue are indistinguishable to the touch.

I've owned both, simultaneously. They have the same "soft grip" or whatever finish. The woven white has the hard more slippery finish.
[Moto X General] General Crespin:
Ebony is alright but I think the teak/white/purple look better. I'll be sticking with it.

Lumia Moto X

I carry 2 devices: Lumia 1020 for camera capabilities and Moto X for phone capabilities. I really like the color design of my yellow 1020 with its black front, yellow body, and black accents. So, I decided to customize my Moto X in the same fashion:

Why is your back so glossy?
[Moto X General] jjimenezjj:
Oh yes, I forgot to mention that! It's a skin I put on to help protect the back as well as make it a bit more grip-able.

Two bamboo versions

I originally ordered bamboo with a white front and yellow accents. The idea of yellow was that they would blend in with the wood, but after about a week I decided they didn't at all. The metallic yellow was more the color that they call "champagne" on the new iPhones. Initially they wouldn't let me exchange it, saying that I could only return it and buy a new one. When I complained that this would loose me my sale price, they offered to throw in free JAX earbuds, but I persisted, got a representative to call me, and the exchange was perfect. I replaced it with a black front, black accents, and the bamboo and am very happy with how these all look together.
[Moto X General] Schnider:
Walnut

Walnut back white front and orange accents. Unfortunately I have bubbles on the back and will be returning it. Not sure if I will be going with another wooden back.
[Moto X General] flutefreak7:
New Colors...

So Moto Maker now has new colors from their college promo...

Has anyone ordered a phone with the green accents yet? I'm considering Ebony with green accents or Spearmint Green with green accents...
[Moto X General] emailrob:
I had the same, but my replacement one was near perfect (no bumps, one faded white dot but I can live with that).
[Moto X General] Schnider:
Yeah I ended up getting another wooden back, but had similar issues with it. So I will be sending this one back in exchange for an olive back orange accents and white front.
[Moto X General] lodown3:
Nice! I wanted to get teak or bamboo back with black front myself...here's shots of my current one.

Walnut is pretty nice, indeed. But curious about bamboo. Could you post/send some more pics of yours? Do you like the black/white?

Thanks!

whoooa..how do you like the air grip btw?? And whered you get that theme/the icons on your homescreen! Very nice. (wallpaper is damn cool too):cool:
[Moto X General] patrickneil:
More images

Yes, I think the black front with black accents and the white border around the bamboo is the overwhelming winner if you like the bamboo. For me, it really keeps the focus on the wood as the main feature, while the accents, especially around the camera on the back, just distracted from it. And with the black front and black accents, the power/volume buttons blend together with the front. And then with the AMOLED screen, the black front makes it all look seamless. You can't change the white border around the bamboo, but I think its the way to go. Here's more images of what I'm talking about.
[Moto X General] Dmiller2007:
I was actually curious about doing this. I got a hunter green replacement X and its much, much slicker than my olive green X was. This is a dealbreaker for me. I like the color but cannot stand how slick it is. Does the skin help with that a lot?
[Moto X General] Toxicoblivion:
Anyone have an orange back yet? Id love to see it!
[Moto X General] Dmiller2007:
I know the different colors have different textures. I am interested in getting a Moto X with a spearmint backing. Can anyone confirm if this color has the slick back or will be the soft/ rubbery feeling back? I originally had an olive green Moto X and it had the soft/ rubbery back which I really liked. Then switched to a hunter green one and it had the slick back and it makes it much more prone to sliding out of my hand. Thanks in advance!
[Moto X General] Solutions Etcetera:
It's listed in the description when you choose a color in motomaker.
[Moto X General] Dmiller2007:
Wow...I've been on MotoMaker countless times and I never noticed that....I'm an idiot..Thanks, though!
[Moto X General] Testicopolicious:
Just a question out of curiosity, those of you with bamboo backs, how are you cleaning and maintaining it?
[Moto X General] biggins82786:
I agree. None of the accent colors are strong enough to go with the cement back, IMO. It needs some extra pizazz! I may go with the "Donatello" or the "Leonardo" as I've deemed them. Spearmint back, white front, purple accent for Don, blue accent for Leo. Seems like a cool idea. Totally looks like Ninja Turtles.
[Moto X General] spicydicy:
A really quick question for all you guys, as I am completely jealous of the us version being able to custom bid to your color choices, but are we able to order parts and change them ourselves? Im in the great white north, ie Canada, and would love to switch up my all black x. One of the reasons I got it to switch between it and my n5.

Thanks ahead of time, there's some beauties in here.
[Moto X General] T-Keith:
Yes, backs are available, but not sure about all the colors yet. Keep an eye on eBay.

[Moto X General] jmill75:
Has any of you held an X with a black back and one with a white back? Is there much difference in texture?

Correct me if Im wrong, but I thought they were different.
[Moto X General] GreenMunky:
If you're referring to the Weave pattern they're the same. I was really expecting to feel some sort of texture on the back (I have a black one) but it's pretty smooth without being slippery. I played with both a black and white woven models at a Best Buy store and compared to the feel of the solid matte colors and I didn't really notice a difference. Just my 0.02.
[Moto X General] tonystarks260:
I have a cement back on mine and had a royal blue that I just recently sold. The blue had a more distinct soft touch feel to it; the cement feels a bit smoother. I personally like the feel of the cement and it looks really good in person. But if you want the soft touch feel it seems the dark colors give you more of that
[Moto X General] Rask40:
I had a cement one, sold it on Swappa.

Currently have a Crimson one (silver accents).
[Moto X General] APeaceofStrange:
Thanks for posting the pics. They have swayed me towards navy blue from royal blue. I'm thinking about getting it with the white front. Can anyone comment on if the white front gets dirty or doesn't look nice with the amoled screen for some reason. Thanks.
[Moto X General] eyc:
Read the thread for the info you seek.
[Moto X General] 19Interpol:
In the time you had the cement, have you noticed if it gets dirty easier/or attracts finger prints more? I currently have the woven white but if I can get in on Monday's deal I want to try either cement or chalk. Kind of wary of the chalk though since I think it will attract the dye from jeans.

So I have been having a hard time deciding what colors to get, but when I saw your phone I fell in love. So you'll have an almost phone twin. I got the raspberry back with the orange accents and the orange air grip, but I have a white front. Does the look good from the front with the orange air grip, that's the only thing I'm worried I won't like.

I've been looking for some pictures of gold accented Moto X's online, but I could find nothing.

Would you recommend it on a all black Moto X?

Does the gold look obviously like plastic or cheap in general?

How does the gold look in regular room light? The picture here has a pretty bright flash.
[Moto X General] crazyfastmofo89:
My post above shows the gold camera ring pretty clear
[Moto X General] savini72:
ill try and take a better picture of the gold to show you. its more of a bright gold almost yellow. heres 2 pictures of what i wanted, and what i got...

one on the left is what i got, gold on the right was what i was expecting via Motomaker site

i know i'm picky but, what i buy something i want what i paid for. sending it back and getting black, chalk and blue. calling in a day
[Moto X General] PeacefulCalamity:
Thanks man.

I guess an appropriate question would be, does the gold shine a bit? Or does it just look like plastic painted like yellow?
[Moto X General] savini72:
i mean it isnt really dull, but isnt shiny/ polished like a sterling silver would be. i guess you could say it looks like a gold paint? when i get out of work ill try to catch what i mean with my Gnex's amazing camera :eek:

Just a question, why did you go from Bamboo to Teak? I really cannot decide between the two at all. just want to know if there was something wrong with the bamboo
[Moto X General] enthused91:
Switching

Bamboo came out first, quite awhile before the other woods were available, so a lot of people may have switched just to try a wood that previously hadn't been available... just a possibility...

But I have the walnut back and like it a lot -- it is a little more 'slippery' than would be ideal, don't know about the other woods, but it looks so cool I can put up with thinking it might slip.... i haven't dropped it yet and I've had it about 4 months!
[Moto X General] savini72:
I've just always wondered about the seem where the wood meets the plastic. Seen a few pictures of it bulging or just not flush...

[Moto X General] HeresOtis:
The only reason I switched is because I was curious how the teak looked. I wanted a white front, and I thought teak and bamboo were the only woods that matched it. I was able to switch because of a little trick I did;);););)

i have to confess that i read this thread, spent hours on moto maker and ultimately bought the Dev edition because i never had a crippled android phone in my life :) as much as i liked the dark wood backs with white front and golden accents...

that said, Dev edition out of the case is ugly as hell. my phone is now called yukk

Sending my 7 month old black/olive/black in for free replacement (small but annoying scratch on the screen) and got a black/slate/gold Moto X.

I like everything about it more, possibly even the non-grip back, unfortunately the buttons seem to have not been installed correctly, as they don't stick out as far as my original phone and sometimes the power button gets stuck. They also don't feel as nice to press because of this. Hoping it maybe wears in, or I could possibly sand down the edge a little...

Terrible QC Strikes Again

So I thought I was lucky in getting in on the 64gb Bamboo deal for $299 and finally being able to keep a Moto X to replace my N4 that's on death watch. Needless to say, my small amount of luck ran out and this is what was in the box when I opened it today:

It looks terrible and I can't believe they let a phone out the door like this. It looks like it was bleached out in the sun and then got run over by a truck. There's dirt specks and weird dark zebra stripes cutting horizontally across the bamboo grain in addition to peeling adhesive/varnish around the edges. The picture doesn't do justice of how bad it looks (thanks crappy N4 camera).

Compared to this beautiful phone they sent me at the end of June that I had to return because $530 for a 32gb X is insane for a phone that is going to be EOL soon:

I'm going to call them and see if they'll send a new one out for the same price, but I doubt they will since it was a glitch to begin with. If they won't swap it I'm sending the phone back and that's it. I feel like I have Stockholm syndrome at this point and I'm letting my brand loyalty get in the way of a rational decision to just give up on this phone. I really hope my N4 can hang in there for a few more months because who knows when the N6/X+1 will show up.

Update: Motorola is doing a swap for a new phone and I should get it in a few days. I gotta say this: Even though their quality control may suck, the support team is really friendly and wants to get things right. The coupon wasn't even an issue.

I ordered mine with 64 GB and the new "Golden Yellow" color today. Black front and black buttons, should make it look like a DeWALT cordless power tool. I was going to make a Makita color scheme but the Teal looked too dark and the Turquoise too light. This is a first for me to order a year-old model but I love the form factor and features too much. The new version will obviously be an over 5" screen and even my 4.7" HTC One is a pocket buster. plus, the price is too good...

I'm hoping the Golden Yellow is the matte finish and not the shiny one. Anybody know?
[Moto X General] wmorrow:
It says that it is "smooth" instead of saying "soft" so I am pretty sure it is not matte.
[Moto X General] bosotros:

The Metallic cherry accent is still the same accent, they just renamed it. I assume the same goes for the metallic lemon lime. (My sister got one with the metallic lemon lime accents, so I can definitely take a picture of it. Also, mine has metallic cherry accents)
