Motorola Moto X for Sprint receives Android 4.4 KitKat update

Motorola has announced that they will begin seeding Android 4.4 KitKat over-the-air (OTA) to their Sprint customers. This means the last of the Moto X models have now been treated to the latest Android desert. Interestingly, even though the U.S. Cellular model of the Moto X reportedly started getting the Android 4.4 update just over one week ago, Motorola is also including that in today's announcement.

Motorola has been working extremely quickly with their KitKat updates. It pushed out the first update to Verizon models before Google had even begun the rollout to Nexus 4 handsets. Since then, it has released the KitKat updates for the AT&T, T-Mobile, and U.S. Cellular models of the device. Today's update for the Sprint model completes the set and brings the same features as all the other updates. In addition to the new dialer, UI tweaks, and general KitKat goodies, Motorola has also added camera improvements to allow users to swipe for focus and exposure.

Now that the Moto X models have the Android 4.4 update, the company will likely shift its focus on bringing the bug fix updates (4.4.1 & 4.4.2) to the Moto X; and of course Motorola still needs to push KitKat to its DROID lineup.
