What the critics say (scores are out of 100)

MobileTechTalk | Domenico Lamberti

Motorola made a great phone, no, a fantastic phone in the Moto X Style, and I think it will appeal to a lot of consumers. The combination of a great screen, fast performance, a mostly great camera and a level of customization that other devices can only dream of whilst keeping a relatively clean, stock feel, and at prices a lot lower than its competition is a winning formula.

Recombu | Chris Barraclough

Motorola's Moto X Style is a solid all-round flagship phone that may not excite with original or stand-out features, but has plenty to offer all kinds of users. (...) With little to frustrate beyond the occasional photo let-down, this is one of the best Moto flagships of recent times.

The Inquirer | Carly Page

If it wasn't for the Moto X Style's disappointing battery life, it would be near impossible to criticise. The handset is cheaper than many of its big name rivals, including the Galaxy S6 Edge and iPhone 6S, yet managed to compete with these devices when it comes to screen quality and performance.

Trusted Reviews | Max Parker

If you want a well priced, super-fast phone benefiting from a slick design and sharp display, I can thoroughly recommend the Moto X Style. It doesn't confuse with a bucket-load of added features, but it does, it does well.

Android Authority | Lanh Nguyen

The winning combination of high-end specs, great build quality, useful software features and an impressive camera make up for the Moto X's few shortcomings. Battery life isn't the greatest and we've experienced a small amount of performance hiccups. But if you can get past that, the new Moto X is probably the phone for you.

NotebookCheck | Daniel Schmidt

With Motorola's Moto X Style, the buyer opts for a good smartphone that we can recommend despite minor shortcomings. The device is pleasant to hold despite its size, and can be personalized like no other. The high-resolution screen convinces with its color accuracy, but shows weaknesses in sunlight.

TechRadar | John McCann

It's not a handset with universal appeal, but for those looking for a big screen flagship at a decent price the X Style is an excellent option. I do wish the battery life was better, but it's not hugely different to other 2015 flagship phones on the market so it's almost acceptable.

What Hi-Fi?

This smartphone may not have the premium feel of the Samsung and Apple flagships, but we like how comfortable it feels to hold, how easy it is to use and how affordable it is compared with its rivals.

The Motorola Moto X Style is a bit of a curiosity.......The screen is an enormous 5.7 inches, making the phone large and heavy, and not particularly stylish, in our opinion.

Digital Spy | Luke Johnson

Camera criticisms aside, the Moto X Style is up there with the best Android phones of 2015. And that's before you take into account its wallet-friendly price tag. This really is Motorola's most accomplished flagship phone to date.

T3 | John Mccann

If you're looking for a big screened smartphone with a decent slug or power, capable camera and reasonable price tag then look no further - the Moto X Style is the phone for you.

The Guardian | Samuel Gibbs

Great screen, good camera and snappy performance are good at this price – but lack of fingerprint scanner and wireless charging hurt longevity

Stuff | Andrew Williams

A big screen, big value phone only really let down by poor battery life.

PC Advisor | Chris Martin

Motorola's Moto X is a great crack at making a big screen phone, but it's not all plain sailing.

Pocket-lint | Chris Hall

That really leaves the price to be the most appealing point. So if you're looking for a phablet on a budget then the Moto X Style has plenty to offer, but it's just not the most exciting phone out there.

The new Moto X Style is the new unspoiled Android champion. It can do Android even better than Google.

Expert Reviews | Katharine Byrne

When it's marred by a yellow screen and exceedingly poor battery life, the Moto X Style just doesn't measure up to its cheaper cousin.

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

  • We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).
  • SIM Only deals do not include plans shorter than 30 days or Pay As You Go rates.
  • We work really hard to get accurate prices from as many providers as possible, but some deals or providers may not be included; if there’s anything we’ve missed then please get in touch and let us know.
  • Whenever we can, we will let you know if a deal is time limited (such as a flash deal), and when the deal expires.
  • For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.
  • Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.
  • Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.
  • Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.
  • Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
  • Providers may increase the cost of your contract by RPI (inflation). However, if prices are increased that then cause a materially detrimental impact, you have the right to exit your contract without penalty. More details available from Ofcom plus comparative information on customer service and complaints handling & their guide on how to complain.
  • Ofcom runs a voluntary accreditation scheme for digital comparison tools (DCTs) for telephone, broadband and pay-TV, and has confirmed that this DCT meets the criteria for accreditation. For further details about the scheme, including the criteria that DCTs must meet, visit the price comparison page on the Ofcom website.
