Sorry if this has already been asked, but I purchased a green moto x with a white front, and the plastic surrounding the screen has became discolored. It has almost a yellow tinge to it. Has anyone else had this issue? I've had clean hands when handling it and for the most part it stays on my desk or in my jean pocket. Motorola is going to replace my phone but i'm a little worried to get another white front....

I don't have a white front but it that happened to me, I would not get another one.
Smoker? Lol
Sent from my N5 cell phone telephone....
I'd go with black front. That's what I have I always thought white to be for women so all my phones were always black.
MOTO X SLAPPED
I also have an olive green back and white front. I got it mid December. Mine is still nice and white. People think I have an iPhone which kind of pissess me off, but then I can show them how cool the Moto x is.
I ordered another one, but I got a black front / orange back (orange is brand new as of yesterday along with several other colors). Thanks for the replies guys.

Lol not at all a smoker.
I just received my second Moto X Gen 2 and was wondering if anybody else has this issue.
The silver Moto dimple on the bag has a slightly off center logo. The 1st one I had was way off center, which I exchanged with Motorola. My second arrived with one that is slightly off. Picture the circle with the Moto "M" on it being turned right or left by a hair. I found similar complaints on Reddit.
Anybody else?
Picture?

I never even looked at mine.
DAMN IT.... I never noticed it until this thread. Yes, mine is ever so slightly turned too. Not that I'll RMA the phone over it, but again, DAMN IT...
I just bought a Moto G 2014 and I'm noticing diagonal lines across the screen (45 degrees) especially visible on light backgrounds. Is this normal on the Moto G 2014?
hey i see the same lines, when screen is off and with the light of sun. I have a new Moto G 2014 to, like 5 days .-
This is the touch sensor grid
Digitizer touch sensor thingy. Its pretty obvious in direct sun light, nothing to worry about

I'm talking about diagonal lines visible on the screen when it's on. Not the lines you see with the screen off in sunlight those don't bother me. It probably has to do with the digitizer though.
I currently own 2 2014 moto g's. My first one was brought at launch and the screen is perfectly clear, my second one was brought a few weeks ago and the screen has diagonal lines which can be seen best at a 45 degree angle. They must be different screen manufacturers.
I'm going send back my second one for a replacement as I can't live with the diagonal lines knowing how much better my first one looks.
Can you try to click a photo of it?
I have uploaded some photos here I would call it a kind of grid effect. Again my first moto g 2014 does not have this and is clear at all angles.
That looks like the same problem I'm having. Might send my phone back as well.

i have that effect to, but i guess is normal, maybe because is gorila glass 3 ?
I do think it is normal for that particular screen. Again my other moto g 2014 doesn't have the lines so motorola must be using different screens.
well there is only one option to be sure, nobody or someone can email Motorola support Moto Care with those images and see what they replay ?
moto g with diagonal lines EXCHANGED PHONE
I just exchanged my moto g because of this problem. they had an older one which had no issue with the screen l, no such lines on the LCD, and the white didn't have an yellow tint as my previous had...
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CHANGING THE MOTO G IF YOU HAVE THIS ISSUES...
Not sure if this counts as reviving an old thread, but I got a replacement Moto G 2nd Gen about 2 weeks ago after my 1st one had a display issue where the glass touched the bottom part of the screen too much.
The replacement that I got has the diagonal lines which are very visible, as well as the lines of pixels much more visible than before. The screen looks much more purple rather than black when turned off too? I got the 1st one in November for reference, reckon Motorola are now using a different type of screen that causes this? Because I have no idea. I also noticed that the back panel of the case was much more flimsy and appears to have a different version number on it.
Reckon I should return this one or am I just going to get the same problem

Its not a 'problem' as such, afaik all the newer moto g's have the same thing. Mine does. It's just the type of screen thats used on the phone.

I have recently returned my Moto G 2014 that has this problem for a full refund and got the new 4G version. This problem is now fixed and the screen has returned to the 'old' style where it is black with no purple tint, no diagonal lines and has better quality.
Posting here just so everyone knows if they are curious.
I would suspect that the midnight blue back color of the Nexus 6 isn't on the moto maker for the Moto X 2014 but I am curious if anyone know what the color is or what the closest color would be. I assume the back is some shade of blue but I guess it could be black, does anyone happen to know on here? (I know this is no the N6 forum)
I thought slate at first but slate is very light, the only other color I can think of is navy blue.
Thanks

have to say as someone who went from a pure bamboo/white moto x, to midnight blue nexus 6, and back to a pure white/cw moto x... i can tell you that if there is indeed a midnight blue for the moto x, steer clear. geez, that phone smudged like crazy. the main part of the back got greasy, but particularly around the nexus lettering. it was pretty strange actually. it was like a grease halo effect. no matter how non-greasy you think your hands are and how much you've wiped it on your pants leg, five minutes later (seriously) it'll get smudged again.

I have a Nexus 5 so I know how easily the back can show grease. After I posted this thread I found out that the black back is more of a soft touch material so I think I will be getting that now. I went to an AT&T store to test it out and it also has a better grip to it than the colored backs.
I did a brief search and didn't produce an answer to my question. I had a 2013 X and my only disappointment was the color wearing out on the blue back. Does the 2014 version suffer from the same problem? I'm debating whether to go all black/white or with a blue back again.
EDIT: Nevermind. I'm going black or white.

I have the black edition for 6 months with a case 99% of the time and color seems to be the same as the first day.
