I seem to remember having read that the the moto x, MAXX, and Ultra were so similar that they could use each others ROMS, is this true?
The Maxx and Ultra are exactly the same aside from the battery size. The Moto X is very close to the same as well

I'm in the market for a new phone and I've been looking at these two phones and I am really torn between them. They both have good battery life and I like the feel of both of them. The only down side about the moto x for me is that I can't use the moto maker option for Verizon which is depressing. So I basically just want to hear from people who have had hands-on with these devices and would be will on giving me input to help me out. Anything would be appreciated thanks!

Got the LG G2 recently and I'm completely happy with it.
Be patient and wait for Nexus 5. Nexus 5 > g2 + moto x

Got an LG G2 for the wife and me. Been amazing so far. I have always used Moto but this phone sets a new bar.
Has anyone here switched from the moto x to the nexus 5? What are your thoughts and are you thinking about going back? I got my nexus on Tuesday and although I've always had nexus devices this one is just OK, so I've been thinking of trying the moto x.

ditto
Moto X has a more immersed Google Now and no KitKat. I think this Nexus will have more Google Now support via CM11. It's possible via our Snapdragon 800 chip.

I had both and returned my original nexus 5 because the Moto X has much better features and better in hand fell. I would have kept my moto X hands down until I won a nexus 5 at that point i returned my Moto X for a full refund saving almost 700 dollars. IfI had to pay for both of these I would buy the MOT X especially now with thee discounted price
Been thinking about picking up an X and return this N5. So disappointed with this device.

I would've gladly paid another 100 for the nexus 5 to be a premium phone.

Ill give you a solid review as im a in love Moto X owner and now a in love Nexus 5 owner.
Moto X
The screen has better contrast, saturation and viewing angles
Active Notifications make me want to come back
Solid, thick build quality. Feels premium
Speakers are LOUD and vivid.
Touchless Control is a plus
Nexus 5
Large 5in screen is nice
Super fast and developer support
Speakers suck, low and raspy
Super light weight, but cheap build feel
Cheap phone for what it offers
The Moto X will get kitkat soon, which will make it even better of a phone, however most of the Nexus 5's faults should be improved upon by software\rom\kernel support.
I've had both and think the nexus 5 crushes the moto x. Not impressed with the moto.
Galaxy S4!!!
Just picked up the N5 yesterday and sold my Moto X. The moto x is an awesome device with many great features but at the end of the day I love the support and Dev community of the nexus. Love the lightweight as well as the grippy back. At first when coming from the x the n5 screen looks washed out but after using the n5 looking at the x screen, it looked over saturated. Both great devices but I choose the Nexus 5.

Is there a ROM that gives moto x style features ?
In using dynamic notifications and it's pretty good but sometimes doesn't work.
I love the features that the moto x has and as I can't get it in the UK I'm looking for the next best thing.

No. Almost impossible.
Doable but takes a lot of time and effort. Might as well just get a HTC phone instead tbh.
