Specs
Pros
Pro Slightly above average camera
The 21MP, f/2.0 and 1.1 µm pixel camera can take some decent pictures, although the default camera app is more of a pain than a pleasure to use. Low light photos come out grainy, and all the settings (even focus) are hidden in a side-mounted scrolling wheel. On the good side, the shutter speed is pretty quick and it captures a good amount of detail.
Pro Always listening voice activated assistant
Moto Voice is an always listening feature which uses Google Now. Even when the screen is off - in your pocket, or between the couch cushions - it will activate when you use the launch phrase (which you can set yourself). You can use Moto Voice to reply to texts, perform a web search, navigate or more. If you dig into the settings, you can also have Moto Voice read out your texts to you when it senses you are driving (it does this by using GPS).
Pro Hardware is super customizable
In the USA, you can customize the colors and materials through the Moto Maker website. You can choose one of the 28 back panel plates, white or black front color, and 10 accent colors. That's over 500 different combinations - much more than any other phone.
Cons
Con Last-gen performance
The Snapdragon 808 SoC never really provided top of the line performance, although it was never meant to. It's GPU is noticeably slower than the Snapdragon 810 - the most popular high end SoC from 2015. For most tasks the Moto X Pure edition will perform admirably, although in games it will drop a few frames here and there.
