... being built about, oh, 25 miles from me:

It’s Being Made in America

While it’s not exactly a feature, Motorola says every Moto X phone shipped to the United States will be assembled in Fort Worth, Texas. According to Motorola, building in the U.S. allows the company to “iterate on design much faster, create a leaner supply chain, respond much more quickly to purchasing trends and demands, and deliver devices to people here much more quickly.”

Some components will come from America, but others, including the screen and processor, will come from countries such as Taiwan and Korea. A manufacturing partner, Flextronics, will assemble phones in China and Brazil for shipping outside the United States.
