Moto X handsets on U.S. Cellular are beginning to receive their Android 4.4.2 KitKat updates today. The update, which comes with build number “KXA20.16-1.27,” adds Google Cloud Print and a number of fixes for email syncing and battery life issues.

Moto X owners will tell you that one of the best things about their smartphone is its Active Display feature, which offers a peek at incoming notifications from the lock screen.

Reuters reports that Google will pay Lenovo $750 million for a 5.94 percent stake in the company.
