Being that the new moto x style and the other varients (moto play and moto G and E) are going to be releasing in september do you think the moto x will go down in price or do you think it will get discontinued... Im so close to buying the moto x 2014 64gb ( obviously wasnt happy with the style's size..) so i was wondering if i should buy it now or wait till style is officially on their website... Idk anyone got any history with motorola phones and how they handle phones..like nexus 5 was discontinued after nexus 6 was released.. So thats why im wondering
Thanks in advance!!

I'm not sure what they "usually" do, but I waited to get a Moto X 2013 until after the 2014 was announced, and they no longer sold them.
Turns out, I'm glad I got the 2014 X, but I would have gotten the 2013 if it had been available to me.
Given that most of these are custom assembled via Moto Maker, I would guess that once the 15 goes up for sale the 14 will stop being available. Whatever stock the hand on hand might end up on discount sites in a few months.
Thanks... Im not sure what to do.... Do i risk and wait...?

What back do you have with the G4? I was thinking of getting leather with the Moto X Style but the slipperly factor is making me edge towards the Silicon back which is meant to be really grippy.
Never felt or held a leather phone so I have no idea how they feel.
I have the ceramic back (non-leather) but with a case i mean slip as in its too heavy for my hand... And wide... Id be more inclined and happy towards my g4 if it had cyanogenmod or aosp...

With the Moto X 2013 what they did last year in the US was slap black or white backs on them and sold them to resellers who then sold them on Amazon and Ebay. Now last year was different in that they closed the Texas assembly plant. This year they are assembled in China so we will see what happens.

So weeks back I entered a contest at my local PC Richards to win a 32Gb White Nexus 5 this before I ordered it etc. Now lo and behold I won the contest! so my conundrum is this. I returned my Nexus 5 because I only liked it and not loved it like my Moto X but now that the Nexus 5 is free and I can still return my Moto X for a full refund I'm thinking maybe i should bite the proverbial bullet and keep the 5 and save almost 700 dollars. what do you guys think?
$700 is a lot of money and it would be kinda scummy to sell the nexus that you won and got for free. If I was in you position I would probably give it to my wife so I can the perks both have to offer without feeling too bad about it.
Yea the wife doesn't want to let go of her iPhone tried that lol. It looks like I might have to eat it and return my moto X
MOTO X GSM DEV
I mean if it wasnt for the almost 700 swing I wouldn't even consider it.
MOTO X GSM DEV
If I were you, if return the Dev and then trade the n5 for a Moto... It's not like you are selling it for profit, you are just getting an n5 in the hands of someone who really wants one and you are getting what you really want... Everyone wins!

Well I sent the moto X back and have the N5 this unit is built really well surprisingly. No rattle or screen bleed. The speaker isn't as good as the moto but it is better than my previous N5

Yikes... you caused a lot of ruckus over on the N5 forum. I suggest you gracefully try to enter that arena again.
As for the decision... meh, $700 is a lot of cash to save.
There OK I have posted a few threads already and no gripes

Wow ... what a strange turn of events. Obviously the Nexus 5 is a very good phone, and Google is to be congratulated for stepping up to the plate. With that said, and from all your posts ... it appears that the Moto X is your first love. My advice, sell the N5 and on Monday, head over to the Moto Maker. Long after you have forgotten about the additional couple of hundred dollars ... you will still be using the phone. Get the X, count your lucky stars, and enjoy!

I also agree with them to some extent. They`re a good company just check the prices. They Sell the Nexus 5 outrageous compared to what you can just buy it out right from google.
But when it comes to buying imported phones they`re the best.

Exactly right on both counts and thats the best way to describe a nexus 5 ive ever heard.i sent mine back after a couple days...it was terrible compared to my G2

It may have the same specs but the n5 is a pos compared to the G2..I sent mine back after a day with it. It was a huge disappointment, google dropped the ball on it for sure...instead of trying to cut corners and keep costs down they should have went all out on it.i bought 5 devices last year and it was the only one I returned if that says anything.
You get what u pay for I guess, lesson learned on my end.
The Gflex I am eagerly awaiting...it will probably be my first device of 2014 if they can get an LTE model out quickly enough

Nexus 5 is probably the best deal in smartphones to date.. For the specs and timely updates you can't get any better. Is it the best at everything? No. But no smartphone is.
I also prefer pure Android but the G Flex looks like it might be pretty awesome to use, depending on how its priced here in the U.S when it drops I might get one. Here's to hoping there's development on it to..
Sent from my XT1034 using Tapatalk
Listen man, nexus is example how android OS should work on the phone.
You can't compare other phones with nexus device...a specially UGLY and lagy UI as LG's
Back on topic>>>
the most chip price for G Flex located on Ebay.
U don't need to go NegriElectronics and buy F340K for 1000$ if you can buy on ebay for 700$.
You pay through PayPal so you have a warranty for several months, after that you can use your manufacturer warranty.
NegriElectronics is good website but I received problem with phone exchanged due to defect I found after 10 days. (it was a screen defect...I send many pictures etc)
They told me to send the phone back to them (Xperia Z Ultra), I did it. And after I purchased another Xperia Z Ultra to avoid exchange waiting time like they told me (price of the phone was 890$)
After 1 week Negri Electronics contact me with "Decline". We can't change your phone cuz we cant find the problem etc!
So I contact the paypal and explained the problem...after 1 day I received the message from CEO with huge apologies from him and management that declined to help me. They returned 70% of my money I paid for 1 device + the CEO offer me big discount for the next purchase I do.....but I never did.
So as you can see we all have bad experience even with NUMBER 1 GOOGLE trusted website NEGRIELECTRONICS.
Ebay got them right now between $670-$700.

Nexus devices are hardly big sellers. Unless they are planning on providing these directly to many, many carriers, it will continue to be a small player.

It doesn't compare to any flagship device as far as sales are concerned. No manufacturer is going to use it to make money.

No...but us who root and buy nexuses and what not are notorious for advising others of what phones they should buy. If Lenovo (Motorola phones in north America anyway I bet) gets a thumbs up from us guys cause they did well with the nexus 6....our word of mouth will help their sales. And legitimize their reputation.
Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
just a rumors only
Is it gonna be called 'Nexus 6'?
I'm a bit confused, so, after Nexus 6, will they call it Nexus 7? Like the 7" Nexus tablet?
I think this is why they would remove Nexus branding. The naming is confusing at this level.
Are you a fellow Verizon user who bought on contract? Say hello.

I have only owned a Samsung android phone. First the fascinate, then the gs3. Gotta say, the feel of this Moto x is amazing. It sucks though, that Samsung turned their back on us, Moto encrypts bootloaders. And I doubt Verizon will let Sony give us an unlocked phone. Do you guys think we will get any goodies?
We might get root, doubt the BL will be unlocked though. I probably still won't root mine though. Don't need to with this phone. I love my leather back though and I am amazed at how fast I got it.
Bought mine on Edge from the GS5 (bought in April). Only $140.
Hoping to order mine with my next paycheck that I get in a few days. Will make an awesome birthday gift for myself, but doubtful I'll get it in time (Oct 16).
Gonna go custom with Black Front, Bamboo Back, Name Engraved, 32GB, Silver Trim
I shattered my SGS3 in a bike accident two weeks ago, and got 3 stitches in my chin to boot. Never dropped/broke a phone before in my life so now is the best time to use my Verizon upgrade to get this beauty.
Really excited
Update: Gonna have to wait until November or December. Girlfriend won't let me get it until then for money reasons.
I ordered through Comcast.com/verizon-wireless. $200 gift card and $50 mail in rebate. Had to call to do moto maker.
Bought it outright from Moto maker. turquoise, black front, silver accents, 32 GB, turquoise and teal Hula case.
Got mine on Monday. Love it.
Any word on root?
Sent from my XT1096 using XDA Free mobile app
How is the Hula case?
- I just got mine in the mail; it was a lot faster than they originally stated.
Teak back, Dark accents, black front, 32 Gb.
It's a great phone, but I am really missing root access. I hope some awesome devs get cracking!

I have a turquoise one with a black front and silver accents, 32 GB. The Hula case is awesome, matches the turquoise or teal perfectly, is truly light weight and adds extra grip.

Call 1-855-627-0822
If you are a Comcast customer, tell them that (and Call before 10/6/14 for the $200 gift card).
32GB SKU#: Motxt1096MM32
Ask them to look it up nationally.
How do you do guys. I just got a nice clearance price on this phone and will be pretty active in here, once it arrives.
Motorola is dumping the 32gb/3gb model for 139, and I think the 64/4 is something like 189.
I'm coming over from the Droid Ultra/Moto X forums. I'm bringing my competent, analytical snarky self into a new old phone realm as my beloved xt1080m has just leapt off this mortal coil. Should be a serious leap in performance for a small price, if not the latest and greatest.
I have questions, but I also have the search box to consult which i haven't yet done. so until then, cheers!
