It will eventually be available on some carriers.
I don't think att has it. I got a sim card from them and the guy said he was jealous that my dev edition had 64 gb. He said they only have 32 gb.

lol HTC is awkward :good:
why would a developer want a 64GB memory?
I think the average user needs it more cuz their more concerned with movies,pic,music,etc
thank you
gunnyman is right. Only AT&T has the 64GB version officially. You can still find it on ebay i think.
Was really considering the phone, but Telus sells the 16GB one. And I am not sure how they will cripple Moto's fast updates. Any Canadian owners, leave your thoughts. I am better off going with the Pure Version?
The only thing telus has done with their moto x is the branding in the status bar and a shortcut to the mytelus account Web app
I don't expect them to take long for other updates.
Mine didn't even come with the Telus MyAccount app at all? It seems like there's actually nothing here (locked phone aside)
The "My Telus" app is in the play store. There really isn't anything on the phone that should delay the update. Part of telus' marketing for this phone has been something along these lines: Pure Style, pure performance with the fastest updates. Im expecting to get the update at the same time as the pure edition or maybe after a few days of network testing.

You can actually remove the TELUS branding in status bar form network settings if you want.
Telus
According to the model number XT1097 the telus model is sold in a number of countries. There really isn't any carrier specific software on this phone. Only place telus is shown is in the APN settings.
Coming from the Galaxy S4 which was also 16gb I really like this phone. It doesn't have a SD card but I didn't really use the SD card I had in the S4 other than for music.

Do you think it is worth it for me to buy the pure edition or the Telus one?

If money is no object then the pure edition might be something to look at provided your going to go to a 32gb phone. So far my understanding between the XT1097 and the pure edition is only storage capacity difference and unlocked boot loader but I did read in the development section that someone with a XT1097 used the same method to unlock his boot loader on the Telus model which means it only comes down to having extra storage. If anyone knows of other differences please tell us.
The other way to decide is look at your current phone and if you still have enough storage capacity on it then the Telus one should work for you.

ah ok thanks! I am thinking of getting the Pure, but I forgot us Canucks cannot buy it
I'd love to know if the Telus version can be unlocked, I've been holding off on buying it because of this.

I was wondering the same thing. Though I might wait a bit for Black Friday as Moto usually offers a discount on their phones around that time, or around Christmas. The only issue is that us Canadians will have to go over the boarder to pick it up.

I bought the phone from telus then unlocked it. I cost me about 690$ after tax (quebec tax).
Its a good choice

I have been on ios for the last 5 years or so, bought the telus bamboo yesterday and i have already unlocked and rooted. The forum for me as a new android user was pretty strait forward and easy to comprehend and the pure method did indeed do the trick on my xt1097. If you are still undecided, i would recommend it and can testify to the effectiveness of the pure method as well as its ease.
With not a whole lot of convincing, I talked them into an additional incentive on a 2 yr so I not only didn't pay for it, but ended up with a negative balance on my bill. hehe
Hope that helps.
Does anyone know when is the end of the Telus exclusivity period?

how did you do it? i cant get any methods to work
I am new to android and wondering how likely do you think AT&T will get the 64gb version? 32gb is not enough for me and I am willing to wait for the 64gb version but if it is not coming I will get the note 4. Thanks!
I can all but guarantee it's not happening. I asked my normal AT&T rep and he said Google is keeping the 64gb as a PlayStore exclusive.
Now take what he says with a grain of salt, but it makes sense. If they did get it it won't be for months. Look at any other phone (M8) that initially launches. Usually only one option and then down the road other colors and models crop up.

Thanks. I think t-Mobile has the 64gb version. How long did ATT take to get more options for the M8

No idea, I was with Verizon forever. Just think from a marketing perceptive. I bet it's available first of the year or Q1 sometime. I highly doubt before then.
It's doubtful that Att will ever get the 64gb one. If you wanted to finance it you could but it directly from moto using that. Alternatively you can buy it outright through them, t mobile or the play store.
Historically has att released more options of a phone later on?
After attempting to buy from 3 retail tmobile stores (who wouldn't sell me the phone without a plan) I ordered my nexus 6 via the phone. Several retail workers and customer support agents on the phone have told me I need to keep service on my phone for 45days to get the unlock code from them. Currently awaiting delivery (back ordered )
What happens if I don't wait for the unlock code And I just insert my Verizon sim?
The tmobile nexus 6 is suppousedly the same as the Unlocked GP nexus 6, so what exactly is unlocked?
I'm coming from a note 4 (my note 4 lags a lot more than everyone else and I can't take it anymore, couldn't figure out the cause)
will the nexus 6 have multi windows at all?
Also how do you use the notifications on this (I played with a 2013 moto x, is it the same?)
Sorry for all the question and thanks in advance for any help.
I just bought the phone from T-Mobile with their cheapest plan Wednesday and I'm canceling them today. From what I've been Reading I shouldn't have to pay anything for the plan. I haven't used it at all and just popped my Verizon Sim card right away.

nothing, except youll have a code that does absolutely nothing. i bought my n6, n5, and n4 via tmobile. they have never ever sim locked a nexus, never. its exactly the same n6 that you can buy at the play store.

Thank you, you pretty much saved me 45 days of phone bill payment.
Im assuming if i dont activate the tmobile sim, i can cancel/not have any charges.
I prev had the z1s with them for like a month and canceled due to their poor customer service , surprised they let me sign up again. (Then again theyre the ones who wanted me to sign up, i just wanted to buy the phone outright and use it on my unlimted data verizon line)
T-Mo Nexus 6 on VZW
OK, so I see that the T-Mo Nexus 6 works fine on VZW, however I see that all of you said you bought it outright, how about buying subsidized? Will it work if on VZW then, since the phone is getting activated, will it lock it to work only on T-Mo? Thanks for the help in advanced!

As stated above T-Mobile doesn't sim lock phones.... They also don't subsidize phones because they are the "uncarrier" so it will work if you pop the Verizon sim in assuming you have a bank sim ready to go.
As what others have said, T-Mobile doesn't lock the phones.
AT&T and Sprint are on a different story, AT&T I've heard locked their phones via carrier.
Sprint doesn't lock their phones but some people have reported buying them from Amazon have carrier locked so be careful on that.
T-Mobile will however make you stay with them for one month (I believe) before you can cancel. If you cancel, your EIP balance is due. If you pay outright, you'll still have to stick with them for a month. At least thats my understanding of it.
U.S. Cellular also sells the phone now but I'm not sure about their policy.
I just bought a white 64gb off swappa, anything in particular to check for? (My tmobile one is backordered).
Pretty sure i overpayed, but as long as the phone is like new i'll be happy.

Check the imei of course to see if it has been reported stolen etc or if the user has paid off the financing if it is financed.

Swappa pre-checked it, ill check it the imei again when i receive the phone
Its a 64gb CW with an extra turbo charger, dBrand skin, and a qi wireless charger. And it has the one year manufacture warranty.
http://swappa.s3.amazonaws.com/listings/GCM288/images/HwOwxHlg_small.jpg
I (over)paid $910 ($900 + $10 swappa charge) and its my first swappa purchase so hope all goes well.
Double checked my tmobile order and its not arriving till 1/19/15-2/2/15. And i havent seen any avail 64gb on moto or the GP store

Wow.... I would have definitely waited a bit longer than pay that much for a phone.
Theres availability, you just need to stick around for them. Have a auto refresh script that alerts you when its available. They randomly add them in stock.

Ive tried that, they always sell out after its in my cart. Motorola had alot of stock earlier of the 32gbs, but i need 64 (currently have 32gb phone + 64gb card at about 75% full)

Glad I caught this thread. Few questions to get clarification:
Assuming I buy the N6 from T-Mobile (subsidized or not) - what is their cancellation policy? Someone mentioned 45 day scenario where you can cancel without penalty? Is that true?
Thanks!

They dont do contracts. Just dont activate their sim and call them up saying you want to cancel.
If youre looking for a 32g id recomend buying off motorola.
This is probably completely off-topic, but I just spent a frustrating amount of time with someone from sales from Motorola. The person says it is a problem with my browser and I want to know if someone else can confirm this.
Recently I purchased the Moto X 2014 for my spouse. 64GB Pure Edition. No problems. Everything works fine.
Go to purchase one for myself today. Have some free time and use my work iPhone to look up the price while waiting at a job site. Pick all my options, select 64GB option, phone shows up as $499 (which is what I expected).
Go home, try to do the same thing, however, the same phone, same options, 64GB of storage will only go in my cart at $599.
The base model starts at $399 and the Motorola website clearly states that it is $100 more for the 64GB option.
The sales rep insists the correct price is $599. What gives? Is there something wrong with my browser is the sales rep wrong?
Thanks.
What carrier?

Trying to select the Pure Edition model. That one doesn't require you to select a carrier (but it will be used on T-Mobile).
Its definitely 599. i remember trying it before. 64gb is only for the pure and its 599. 399 is for the republic wireless one, its tricky advertising in my opinion. They pick the cheap carrier by default but as soon as you change it to any other one it goes up. The pure edition starts at 499, 32gb is like 549 and 64gb is 599. At least last I checked. Try different browsers and selecting different carrier/storage options. I don't know how you got it to show 499... it jumps straight to 599 for me as soon as I select 64gb.
