Moto X Android 4.4 rollout continues with U.S. Cellular The Motorola Moto X continues to see its Android 4.4 KitKat rollout.
U.S. Cellular subscribers are starting to get the OTA update, following T-Mobile USA, AT&T and Verizon which received it in the last week. Outside of the Nexus 5, the Moto X is the only device to have Android 4.4, not even last year's reference device, the Nexus 4, has it.

Remaining carriers without the update include Sprint, who has not given a timeframe, and Republic Wireless, which said the update is coming early next month.



The Moto X runs an almost stock version of Android, but includes so very nifty applications for migrating data from old devices, and more.

Android 4.4 adds aesthetic enhancements, updated to the phone dialer, the camera/gallery and enhanced NFC support.
