Moto X (2014) Android Marshmallow update
On November 12, Motorola's David Schuster announced via Google+ that Motorola X (2014) owners in Brazil were beginning to receive the Marshmallow update.
The deployment follows a pleasingly short soak test. Schuster said that the update would be rolling out globally over the coming weeks, so keep an eye on your notifications, because it could arrive at any time.
A CyanogenMod 13 ROM is available via the XDA Developers forum. It allows you to get Android Marshmallow up and running on your Moto X (2014) immediately. It's an early release and bugs are still being squashed, but you can look through the known issues and temporary fixes. It is described as being in "a usable state".
As always, flashing a custom ROM to your device comes with a variety of dangers, so use at your own risk. If you decide to download and install it, be sure to back up everything on your device before you do so.
Many more of Motorola's devices are scheduled to receive Marshmallow; you can see the full list on our Marshmallow update page.
Moto X (2014) Pure Edition update
The Moto X (2nd generation) Pure Edition, model XT1095, started to receive Android Marshmallow on January 4. The update is 884.4 MB and brings with it all the Marshmallowy goodness you could hope for, including Dose, Google Now on Tap and upgraded app permissions.
To check if your device is ready to receive the update, just head to Settings > About device > Software update.
Below are some screenshots from a device running Marshmallow here in our offices.

Moto X (2014) Android Lollipop update in the US
Verizon Moto X (2014) update
The Moto X update started to arrive to unlocked devices (as well as those with Rogers) in the US, Canada and Brazil only recently, but now Verizon has begun its official rollout too.
The update brings Moto X (2nd gen) owners up to software version 23.16.3 and introduces new interruption controls, a means of altering the notification volume while media is playing, and factory reset protection. To read more about the Android 5.1 features, head over to our dedicated article at the link.
Verizon updates typically arrive with devices in stages. When it comes to yours, make sure that you charge your device to at least 75 percent before starting the update. For a full rundown of the Verizon improvements introduced, check out the Verizon Wireless changelog.
AT&T Moto X (2014) update
Following hot on the heels of Verizon, AT&T is now rolling out the final Android 5.1 update for the Moto X (2014) too. Motorola Software product manager David Schuster updated a post on his Google+ page to deliver the announcement, stating that the Moto X update has been moved to ''full deployment'' (for both AT&T and Verizon).
This means that while you might not receive a notification from AT&T just yet, you can go into Settings > About Phone > Software Update to see if it's ready.
US Cellular Moto X (2014) update
US Cellular has also announced the OTA Android 5.1 Lollipop update for the Moto X 2nd generation. The OTA brings the Moto X (2014) update to build number LPE23.32-21.
The full changelog has also been posted on its customer support site, including a new ''chop chop'' gesture for launching the flashlight, priority interruptions, heads-up notifications, additional Quick Settings, Device Protection and improvements to the camera.
To see if the update is waiting for you, head to Settings > About Phone > System Update.
