Motorola has given those in the U.K. the opportunity to customize their new Moto X through Moto Maker before the handset goes on sale in the coming weeks. When you’ve chosen a design you’re happy with, you can save it and Motorola will let you know as soon as it’s available to order.

I may be in the minority here, but when I think of the type of TV show I’d picture Samsung as, my mind goes to scandalous political thriller House of Cards well before it does to Glee.

Which is, of course, why it makes absolute sense that Samsung is currently in the process of creating its own Glee-style “Musicom” (that’s a sitcom meets musical) centered around the lives of two fictitious young employees. Can’t you practically hear the songs already?

Called Best Future, the series will follow male and female flatmates, and is designed to portray Samsung as the kind of trendy-yet-lovable company people in their twenties and thirties would just love to work for.

A couple of months ago, Google gave the Play Store app for Android a partial Material touch. With the impending release of Android L, the company is now working on giving the Play Store app a full Material Design makeover, if the latest screenshots from Android Police are to be believed.

Earlier today, Motorola’s latest flagship — the new Moto X — went up for pre-order on AT&T as well as on the company’s own website.

Now, in order to create awareness and promote the device, Motorola has uploaded a bunch of adverts for it on its YouTube channel showing off its key features including the 13MP camera, Moto Assist and Moto Voice.

Microsoft today updated its OneNote application for Android to add support for Android Wear, allowing users to add new notes using their voice on devices like the Moto 360, the LG G Watch, and the Samsung Gear Live. The feature means you can quickly add things you don’t want to forget to your notebooks without even taking out your smartphone.
