Man Motorola just isn’t wasting anytime with the KitKat update for their Moto X’s. On Tuesday, we had heard that Verizon was getting the Android 4.4 update. Just last night we heard that AT&T is working on a soak test for their update, and now T-Mobile’s Moto X is getting the update as we speak. Although the T-Mobile one is an unbranded version since it is sold through Motorola at full price and not T-Mobile. We are also hearing that the GSM Developer Edition is also getting it’s update as we speak, which is also great news. For those that need the full changelog, we’ve got that down below.

Hopefully we’ll have the update zip file available shortly to share with everyone. But I must say, Good Job to Dennis Woodside and the rest of Motorola. They are really showing OEMs how fast Android updates should take. It was 3 weeks ago today that Android 4.4 was announced, and it’s already out on almost all of the Moto X variants.
