The Moto X has been a popular smartphone and is the first handset released since Google acquired Motorola. Moreover, Moto X uses some of exclusive software features to set itself apart from rivals.

Just pick up the Moto X and twist your wrist, and the handset will automatically wake and open the camera application, no need to turn the smartphone on and open the app. Those are just some of the Moto X's exclusive features.
