Hands on: The new Moto X in leather, wood, and plastic
How does the new Moto X look and feel? It may sound crazy, but a lot of that is actually up to you.
We can talk all day about how the phone is bigger than last year’s model (it is — though it’s still smaller than the Galaxy S5 or the One M8).

But the biggest variable in the new Moto X’s form is how you decide to craft it. Like with the original Moto X, Motorola will sell this year’s model through its online Moto Maker customization tool.
