The Moto X (1st gen aka “the OG”) is in the process of being killed off by Motorola. If you cruise over to the Motorola online shop, you will no longer be able to purchase or design the original Moto X through Moto Maker. The only models we are seeing as still available are the Verizon and GSM developer editions, but I would venture to guess that they won’t be around much longer either. The new Moto X (2nd gen) launches at the end of this week, so the move isn’t really all that surprising.

In place of a “Design yours” button, the Moto X (1st gen) landing page now says the following:

(Pssst…we just announced the all new Moto X, which we hope you will love even more. Click here for details)

R.I.P. old friend.
