Actually,

Fingerprint scanner for people that use it (I personally hate it).

Amoled is not better, I own a Droid Turbo with a 2k Super Amoled screen and the Pure IPS screen is so much better in terms of brightness and colour accuracy (compared it side by side).

Probably the Nexus has better low light camera but the MXP has selfie flash and the back camera takes brilliant pictures on daylight.

Build quality is by taste, by making it 100% aluminium doesn't mean it's better built. If the aluminium suffers a drop on the back it will get all scratched, if the wood, leather, rubber is dropped on the back, it's less likely to get damaged.

Moto X Pure is also pretty fast at getting updates and you're not Google's beta tester.

Moto X over Nexus 6p:

Better sound quality overall

Better signal

MicroSD slot

Same screen size but more compact and elegant design

Moto Maker

Moto Actions

Moto Voice

Moto Display

TurboPower charging

Official bumper included in the box

Cheaper

With the Moto X Pure you're getting a lot more for the money.
[X Style (Pure) General] jmfc:
Speaking about camera, nobody mention absolutely amazing digital video stabilization (almost like iPhone 6s). Nexus is nowhere near x pure in terms of video. Even Galaxy s6 slightly worse in that department.
[X Style (Pure) General] Faruko:
Its also cost a lot more, i can get a a 144Gb Moto X Pure for $450 (Thank you Android 6.0)

The 128gb version 6P its $200 dollar more

And the screen and build quality its pretty subjective, the "faster updates" its good but its also bad considering google lastest record i would not be surprise if 6.0 its actually a ****ING MESS like 5.0 was untill 5.1/5.1.1

Why are people comparing the X Pure to the 6P its beyond me, they are NOT in the same price point, honestly if a pricer phone wasnt better than the cheaper one then theres something fundamently WRONG.

Called two days ago to return my MXP. Gets hot, camera is CRAP, battery life is just as bad, very heavy for a phone, and the lights on the LCD display are very obvious. BUT the display and colours were vibrant as hell. So I guess it had one thing going for it. Aside from price
[X Style (Pure) General] Faruko:
Dxomark put the XPure as the 6th best camera smartphone, good luck with the other 5 options you are locked into

"Gets hot", well any 808/810 will get warm so i dont think that problem is exclusice to the X Pure

I'm getting better battery life with my MXPE than my 5x. Camera is a tie in daytime photos.
[X Style (Pure) General] brholt6:
Here's a pretty good comparison... Probably can't go wrong with either Nexus or the Moto X Pure. I'm loving my MXPE, though!

Two very unscientific low lights.

[X Style (Pure) General] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Been working fine for me on my MXPE. It has also been a big help on my Nexus Players, that only have about 5GB available storage out the box.
[X Style (Pure) General] DoobyDroid:
I'm in a dilemma I currently have the Nexus 5x 32GB but my problem is with the yellow tinge to screen some reports that Google are replacing handsets with yellow screen so I'm returning mine to cpw today and considering changing for the Moto X style/pure is this a good idea for me I can live without the finger print scanner for a better screen and more Ram , Thoughts ? Thanks
[X Style (Pure) General] robstunner:
I'm probably sending my pure back today, as much as I don't want to. I paid $518 for it and it's great, but that cost after tax is only about $15 less than the nexus 6p. Usually I would disregard such a small price difference but if 2015 showed us anything, it's that the 400-500 price range is very tough.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
All I can tell you is I am quite happy with my MXPE. I came from an LG G2 and I can tell I get better cell reception with this phone. The extra storage, and the quality of the Motorola overall make me happy with my decision. At the end of the day it is your decision to make.
[X Style (Pure) General] DoobyDroid:
What's your thoughts on Nexus 5x and Moto X pure witch do you prefer I'm contemplating returning for a Moto X purely coz of poor screen on Nexus 5x
[X Style (Pure) General] robstunner:
The screen is sharper, brighter and bigger on the Moto X. There are no negatives to the screen in comparison to the 5x.
[X Style (Pure) General] DoobyDroid:
That's good to hear I contacted Google support live chat he said try increasing screen brightness didn't make a lot difference still yellow tint and no good having screen full brightness major battery drain
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
I will be honest, I preordered the nexus 6P to give it a 14 days test but after I saw a review that claimed their unit started to have a burn in after only 7 days I canceled my order. If it had an LCD I'd bite but I would be paranoid every day about burn ins. Order canceled.

My wife's 5X arrived yesterday, I like it a lot. The fingerprint reader is awesome and it is faster/smoother than our phone. However the screen does not compare. Toss a fingerprint reader on this bad boy and it would not even be a temptation. I have a feeling marshmallow will even the playing field with smoothness. I know it has to do with the 2K
[X Style (Pure) General] funkeruski:
I bought the Pure from Amazon and am liking it. Frankly, I would have gone with the 6p if there was a way I could pay it off over 6 months like I'm doing with my Pure on Amazon. I'm coming from an LG G3 which was a good phone, so the being able to pay off over 6 months made getting the Pure easier to justify. Too bad Google doesn't take PayPal.
[X Style (Pure) General] DoobyDroid:
Just picked up my pure after exchanging from 5x must say I'm glad I did screen is so much better and to have SD again even if slightly heavier than 5x but the finger print scanner just wasn't enough for me to keep with poor screen on top ..
[X Style (Pure) General] pnut22r:
I'm contemplating doing the same. Please tell me your likes/dislikes compared to the 5X
[X Style (Pure) General] DoobyDroid:
Well obviously the screen to start its so much better over 5X and extra ram always a bonus camera is awesome very snappy taking a little to adjust to weight after the 5x but feels more premium as well speakers are louder and better quality SD as well turbo charging is very good as well I'm glad I exchanged only thing I miss is fingerprint scanner but we'll its just as quick using the power button lol
[X Style (Pure) General] bigsnack:
I've read a few reviews and such of both the 5x and the XPE, but the answer isn't too clear. Which has the better battery life? I know Doze helps a lot, but some reviews have said the XPE has the better battery life, while other says doze helped to eek out a bit more. If only the 5X had the 3000mah like the XPE, or the XPE had the same battery as the Play/Maxx 2.
[X Style (Pure) General] DoobyDroid:
Battery life on 5x wasn't the best much better on XPE and turbo charging is quality was on 15% pluged in for 10 mins 50%
[X Style (Pure) General] pieman13:
I have been using both and here are my observations:

Battery - Nexus wins this one be it not by much, When M hits it will even the scales.

Screen - X wins, easier to read. The nexus screen is nice and I have no yellowing on mine but the X is more pleasant to read on.

Camera - Nexus, this is not even close. I'm not saying the camera on the X is bad, but the nexus easily bests it in any condition.

Weight - Nexus, so easy to hold in one hand (I have small hands) and usability is superior to the X.

General feel - X, It just feels premium and despite it's larger size, seems easier to grip.

Software - Nexus, In this day I feel it unnecessary to have to root phones, I feel the specs and software should be able to do their job. the nexus just feels smoother despite having less ram. I have noticed no lag in the phone or using apps.

Conclusion - I think, for me, the Nexus will be the phone I keep. I feel the superior camera and usability of the device has won me over. Yes the speaker stinks, but it's acceptable for phone calls. Hope this helps and I'd be happy to answer any questions. I still love the X though.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
I have been using both (Nexus 5X and Moto X) honestly the camera looks better on my Moto X. Could be that the screen is that much crappier on the nexus but I see a huge difference IMO. Not saying that either camera is bad I just like the results on the Moto. I would love to keep the nexus if the screen was more vivid. I feel like if they used the LG G2 screen I could switch to the nexus 5X but it is just not the best. It is usable if you are coming from the nexus 5 but any other phone you'll be disappointed. I LOVE how light the nexus is, pretty amazing. The nexus speakers are good compared to most phones (front mount FTW) but they are not even in the same league as the moto X/ 6P. The vibrate on the nexus is poor too. The nexus is smooth as butter and the battery is better on standby but that is probably marshmallow, we have to hold our judgement until after we get marshmallow love, Could be the 2K screen, could be lollipop, time will tell. Benchmarks for the Moto X blow the nexus out of the water when I ran Antutu last night but you know that benchmarks and every day performance are two different things. Fingerprint reader on the nexus is awesome, fast, best placement IMO, just works. It really makes me disappointed that Motorola didn't add one. It makes me not car for double tap to wake, or the moto pick up. Just tap and go.

Final thoughts, if you are coming from an iPhone or another low res device the 5X will be perfect. My wife so far loves it and finally step out of iJail (hopefully for good). But if you are used to higher res screens it will take some getting used to. I could easily use this as my daily driver, but I would prefer the 6P or Moto X. But with the 6P burn in issue my choice has been made for me. It woudl be a very hard transition from the Moto X Pure to the Nexus 5X.
[X Style (Pure) General] rushless:
I'm referring to the integration of SD and internal storage in Marshmallow.
[X Style (Pure) General] Darnell_Chat_TN:
So am I :) .
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
My Nexus 6P just arrived. Initial impression? The screen on the Moto X Pure is better (brighter, better whites, less graininess). Also, speakers on the Moto X Pure are better. Moto X Pure is also a little smaller and easier to grip with the rubber back.

I'm actually shocked because I fully expected to fall in love with the 6P immediately and ditch the Moto X Pure based on the stellar reviews I have been seeing, but now I'm thinking this is going to be a tougher decision than I thought, and I might actually end up returning the 6P!
[X Style (Pure) General] tranemonk33:
Fascinating....Please do keep us informed. I'm assuming the Nexus will have better photos and battery life. I'm VERY interested in the call quality between the two.
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
From some quick tests, the photos are pretty close. Sometimes the 6P takes a better shot and sometimes the Moto X takes a better shot. I think the 6P will take better pictures in low light for sure, but in good lighting the Moto X actually provides a LOT more detail. I can set photos from my Moto X as a background on my 15" Retina MacBook Pro and they still look sharp. If I do the same with a photo from the 6P, it looks pretty soft, so I probably wouldn't do it.
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
So I mentioned that the Moto X Pure screen is brighter than the 6P, but damn, in direct sunlight the Moto X Pure absolutely obliterates the Nexus 6P.

Also, while performance is good on the 6P, it's not nearly as much faster than the Pure as I thought it would be. Actually, most of the time they perform almost identically. Occasionally the Nexus 6P will feel slightly smoother, but not much.

Pretty sure I am keeping the Moto X at this point.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
I'm curious about cell reception in marginal areas. If you get an opportunity to see how the reception compares to the Moto, I would appreciate it. This is a big reason I went back to Moto.
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
Ok, I'll try to swap the SIM and compare at some point.
[X Style (Pure) General] cougzzz:
For the nexus 6p, is the display close to the surface of the glass as it is with the moto x or is there a noticeable gap?

For me the negatives of the moto x were:

1) poor battery life despite turning off a bunch of things.

2) scrolling up and down in certain apps were not smooth.

3) certain sound via speaker at high volume produced some crackling noise. (e.g., hangout notification sound).

4) metal frame feels cheaper than moto x 2nd gen.

Other than that, the screen was gorgeous. Liked the SD card support as well. Camera was excellent outdoors.

Couldn't look pass the negatives so my eyes are on the nexus 6p.
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
Looks about the same in that regard.
[X Style (Pure) General] cougzzz:
Thank u for the quick response. Personally, I don't care too much for outdoor visibility. As long as the display gives off that "floating" feeling then thats all that matters to me lol. And of course, colors have to pop.
[X Style (Pure) General] mademan420:
6P Durability

I know this is a bit extreme, but just thought I'd share...

http://www.theverge.com/2015/10/30/9643538/nexus-6p-bend-test-video
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
Well if you don't care about outdoor visibility, you will probably be pretty happy with the Nexus 6P display. If you turn on sRGB mode on the Nexus 6P and set the display colors to normal on the Moto X Pure, the screens look almost identical indoors in terms of color and white balance, though the 6P has a somewhat grainy appearance that's noticeable if you look close.

It's not really my thing, but if you leave sRGB mode off on the Nexus 6P, the colors do pop a lot, even more than the Moto X Pure in vibrant mode.

I'm really happy that almost every Android manufacturer is including display calibration settings now to choose between vibrant and accurate colors. Now if they would just start including a setting for color temperature as well, I would be in heaven. I've had too many phones ruined by an overly warm or overly cool color temperature. The Moto X Pure is just about perfect, though I wouldn't complain if it was just a touch cooler.
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
Here's one that ends more favorably though.

https://twitter.com/luckyankit/status/660052058326720513

Kind of makes you wonder if the one in the first video was defective.
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
1) Can't comment on battery life of the 6P, but I get pretty good battery life from the Moto X Pure and rarely have to add charge before going to bed.

2) The 6P is a little smoother in some apps, but surprisingly, in most apps it doesn't feel any faster or smoother than the Moto X Pure, so don't get your hopes too high there.

3) I usually don't keep my Moto X Pure at max volume because it's so loud, but I can tell you that the 6P doesn't get quite as loud and doesn't sound quite as good when listing to music or podcasts compared to the Moto X Pure.

4) 6P definitely feels more premium than the Moto X Pure, but it's more slippery as well, so you might be tempted to put it in a case, whereas I don't feel the need to put the Moto X in a case because it has a more grippy back and doesn't feel as precious as the 6P.

The 6P camera produces photos with good colors, but there is a LOT less detail captured outdoors than photos from the Moto X. If you're just sharing via social media, the 6P probably has the more desirable camera because it's better indoors and in low light. But if you like to crop your photos, or use them as desktop computer wallpapers, or view them full screen on super high res displays, you will appreciate the extra detail the Moto X provides.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
So basically when the screen broke it broke the strength of the structural build which caused it to be an easy bend. Don't break your screen and you wont have any issues.

I caved and I ordered a 6P for the 14 days test drive. We will see how it lives up to the hype.
[X Style (Pure) General] mademan420:
Seems that way. Good luck!
[X Style (Pure) General] rushless:
Bend tests for devices not intended to be bent in their function IMO are flippin' silly.
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
Did a quick reception comparison. I have AT&T and don't have the best reception in my house. I tested the Pure and Nexus 6P in the same spot. The Nexus 6P got slightly better reception (-106 dBm vs -110 dBm). For comparison, my wife's iPhone 6 beat both with -105 dBm. This is on LTE band 17.
[X Style (Pure) General] undertaker2k14:
Got my N6P with the verus case and now really torn between the MXP and N6P. Screen on the MXP is def better, my N6P has a slight pink tint on top left but nothing to complain too much about, the SRGB mode on N6P is useless as it way undersaturates the primaries, Moto X P is just pure :) with clean whites, no BLB (N6P cannot have BLB since it is OLED, hate the tiny BLB on my N9). Performance difference between them is not too great though N6P is a bit better, MXP speakers are a bit better though. But the critical piece that has me torn is that the N6P works much better with secure work email due to fingerprint sensor where as the MXP requires a password (why on earth did you leave it out even this year Motorola ?????? )but the MXP conversely is much much more easier to hold one handed than the N6P. At 5.7 inches, both phones are pushing the dimensions out a bit but the 76% screen to body ratio of the MXP makes it a whole lot easier to manage. For reference, I am a 6' 1" guy with medium to large hands.

Not sure which one I will keep at this point (thought that the N6P was a slam dunk but the MXP is a very enticing proposition).

My thoughts: Google should have used the MXP as the new N6P, with a fingerprint sensor, the MXP would be perfect. It would have been (and in some cases still is), what the Nexus 6/6P should have been.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
I got my N6P yesterday and it is beautiful but you are right. LCD is SOOO much better than AMOLED. The screen just doesn't do it for me. The moto x looks better IMO. I am torn. The 6P is so beautiful and the fingerprint and smoothness is awesome. It has no lag like the moto x has. We have 14 days to decide but man, the 6P looks so good in person.

Another interesting point is I think my moto X has better battery life than the 6P. Of course I am still on my first charge but I find it interesting
[X Style (Pure) General] gtg465x:
I just wish the Moto X Pure had a Snapdragon 810. The 6P definitely runs smoother than the Moto X Pure. It's a very tough decision for sure, but I may have to go 6P just for the added buttery smoothness. While minor, the little stutters you encounter on the Moto X Pure get on my nerves.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
I just can't help but think we won't get the true comparisons of the 2 products until M is released on the MXP.
[X Style (Pure) General] rushless:
I have no lag on my MXPE and find the better stereo speakers, better headphone jack output, better display and micro SD to be reason enough to chose over the 6P.
[X Style (Pure) General] tranemonk33:
I am in the exact same boat. I finally got the Nexus6p. I agree with you about the screen and speakers. In my case, the Moto x is much better in direct sunlight outdoors. Little performance difference. Fingerprint sensor big plus for Nexus... The other thing I noticed is that the call quality on the Moto X I would say is 15% better that the Nexus 6p....

I also agree with you about expecting the Nexus to be a no-brainer. It's closer than I thought it would be.

Totally agree.
[X Style (Pure) General] blestsol:
I haven't purchased the 6p yet but I did return my mxpe. Starting to regret it based off this thread
[X Style (Pure) General] samomamo:
I got the Moto x mont ago from Best Buy I loved the phone but was thinking that the Nexus was gonna be much better and I returned the Pure, then got the Nexus 6p and first second I touched it realized it was a mistake. The 6P felt like cheap aluminum like thin foil and that camera hump and the plastick on the bottom for the antenna ugly, the aluminum doesnt feel like the iphone 6 or htc one m8 aluminum, it feels like thin paper . Anyway sent it back and got another Pure from Best buy rooted and its charging now, gonna put my sim in it soon as it done.

And the sound cant even compare to the Moto x speakers. The fingerprint is in a ****ty place every time i put my hand in my pocket accidentally i put my finger on the fingerprint scanner knowing its the moto x dimple. All the time the phone is unlocked in my pocket and thats bad.
[X Style (Pure) General] undertaker2k14:
My 64 GB aluminum order that was showing for Nov 10-12 shipped and will be here tomorrow. If the screen on that one is perfect, may just keep it and return both the 32 GB NXP and MXP (Only ordered the 32 GB N6P last week since it was showing immediate availability and there were reports of further delays for the 64GB ones) Otherwise the MXP may well be it. Going from the G2 to MXP, I barely noticed the difference in size due to the ergonomics of the MXP, the N6P feels like a whale, albeit a very smooth, fast whale :)
[X Style (Pure) General] Darkestred:
Both phones are great.

Thought both screens were great. Minus the color shift on the 6p, but not a deal breaker.

MXP had stutter and pops in the headphone jack when using various players (neutron, poweramp) but didn't happen in google music.

Headphone jack in the Nexus is better. MXP didn't sound right. Satisfactory.

6p has better battery. I don't need charges to tell you that. I hit 5h SOT with 20% left on first charge. I never hit 5 with the MXP.

I don't think the speakers are better on the pure. At times, i do, but i think the pure has a more colored sound, which makes it more fun. The 6p has a more nuetral sound, which makes it more analytical. IMO, a wash.

Size is obviously a personal preference (that's what she said). I am a very small guy at 5'6 and i love big phones. I have no problem one-handing this thing for most tasks and i dont care if i have to swing my second hand to help stabilize the phone. Smaller bezels would have been nice, but they melt away with the beauty of the phone.

I really enjoyed the MXP but the nexus was just that much nicer.

At the end of the day you can't go wrong with either.

No one should feel doubts purchasing the 6p and vice versa.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
I agree both phones are great. Putting the 6P screen in sRGB mode makes up for the color difference. My first charge on the 6P I only got around 2 hours SOT so that's why I am hoping more charge cycles will change this. At times it kinda sounds like one speaker on the 6P is louder than the other. Which kinda ruins the experience but I read that other users had the same issue. I never use headphones so I can't comment on that. I'm leaning toward the 6P at the moment
[X Style (Pure) General] rushless:
The reviews I have seen so far point out the 6P has weaker 3.5mm output than the MXPE and not as good sound quality. PhoneArena did an actual audio analysis and show the 6P with less than half the output. One of the reasons I like their reviews, since they actually do analysis of this for devices. The speaker comparisons are subjective to some degree, but the bass and treble are more defined with the MXPE. The 6P sounds tinny/flat with virtually no depth of sound. The MXPE does not have a lot of depth, but sounds "hi-fi" compared to the 6P.
