There isn't much risk in ordering it, checking it out and if you don't like it just send it back for a refund. I'm really thinking about pulling the trigger on the Note 5 international version but I might just hold off until the nexus release. and see what they have in store. I have a feeling the larger nexus is going to be expensive though and the nexus line has never been known for batter life or camera. If I'm going to go with a non SD card phone I might as well get a Note. That brings me back to the 930i on ebay for 589. Decisions decisions.

Ordered the 64GB today. Black, Black leather and red metallic. Says delivery on 9/29, which is cool by me. I did my fair share of research and as someone mentioned earlier, the fingerprint scanner would've been a nice to have, but definitely not a deal breaker. Having the microSD slot and the Pure edition, and of course being root-able, made not going with the Nexus 5x an easy decision. Wish it had 4GB of RAM and was faster, but the 808 seemed to be the sweet spot for CPU vs. battery and 3GB I'm sure will be plenty. Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) would've been a nice to have, too. That's truly it. There was no other phone in the ballpark that came as close to the ideal as this one. Even looked at the iPhone 6s Plus and the upcoming Lumia 950XL. One was so overpriced that I was happy to keep some money in my wallet and the other, while having a great OS, has serious app shortages. So here I am...eagerly awaiting my new phone and all the fun that goes with it. One last thing - Shame on Samsung for removing not only the microSD slot, but also making the devices unable to be rooted. The LG G4 is a good phone, but as someone pointed out earlier - there is NO development going on there. This is where it's at :)

Sprint - MUST return it

I do not have internet at home, I use my phone for everything (Netflix, kids homework, movie downloads, etc.). That being said, I am on Sprint and I cannot surf and talk at the same time. If I'm downloading a movie, or episode and the phone rings....cancels the download. Also, if I cannot use my phone and mobile hotspot at the same time when calling into a WebEx or anything. From what I could read Sprint is pretty much screwed if you want to use both until Volte comes. My Note 3 does both, but if I need to change....looks like I'll have to move carriers.

I just ordered one this weekend. Been waiting for the nexus 6p (or whatever they're gonna call it) but I cant get over how ugly the back looks. Yes I know its all based off leaks but if for some reason it looks different I can return the moto. My delivery date is the 29th when google spills the beans. I feel like this is gonna be a nexus + a sd card + moto actions (which I don't know if I could go without now)

Returned

Just sent mine back. I went back to my Galaxy S6 until the Nexus release. The S6 has much better photos and the screen is much better. Battery is a tad better than the Moto X. The off angle view on the Moto X was bad.

I am awaiting the next Nexus 5X or 6. If they don't pan out I may rebuy the Moto X. Just felt like the build quality was a bit on the cheap side.

Just sent it back.

I dropped it off at Fed Ex to send it back a few minutes ago. I liked it a lot, but it was hitting 112 F within 5 minutes of browsing chrome/Facebook/Twitter. I've never had a phone get hot like that, unless I playing a game for an hour, or watching back to back to back videos over the LTE.

It is probably a bad phone, and I guess that can happen with first batch phones, but I have seen a few people saying the phone was hot. Too many really.

No way! Never a Samsung phone again! Samsung will have to do 5 things to get my attention again:

1. Officially allow people to unlock the bootloader

2. Put back the micro SD slot

3. Completely and utterly get rid of all the bloat and provide software updates from Google faster.

4. Provide front facing stereo speakers

5. Truly unlocked and wired to work on all carriers so that I can move from T-Mobile (GSM) to Verizon (CDMA) and vice versa, without issues.

Samsung will never do any of these things...:)

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] czaplin:
I agree, MXP is nice. However, it's a tough choice for me between this and N6. I love blacks of AMOLED screeen and brightness of LCD. Lack of SD in N6 sucks big time but wireless charging compensates that for me. Size doesn't matter, I feel comfortable with both devices. However, MXP feels snappier and has better camera.

Please, give me a phone with: N6 stock android, G4 camera, front camera with flash, Droid Turbo battery, Note 5 AMOLED screen, Alcatel One Touch screen brightness, MPX speakers and quick charger, Z3 form factor AND wireless charging, finger print sensor, 4GB ram, 820 cpu, 128gb memory, waterproof.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porkweasel:
VERY slippery with the wood back. I've considered returning it but I'm trying to hold out hope a good bumper will help keep it firmly in hand. The one that's included with the phone is garbage and there are only a couple case options even available at this point.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ClubDownforce:
So, I returned my X to Motorola so I could exchange it for one with:

1. Better build quality (my screen was crooked on the frame, drove me crazy)

2. More storage. 9.5gb available on a 16gb phone with "stockish" Android does not compute.

3. A slightly different Moto Maker design.

Motorola received my device yesterday morning, so I gave them a call to see how long it would be before I received my code to build my new phone. Apparently, even though I selected to exchange the phone when I started this return process online, they processed mine as a refund.

So, instead of just ordering to exchange my phone, now I get to wait for a refund, which Motorola tells me could be up to 5 weeks. I think that's probably worst case scenario, but in any event, it's NOT what I wanted. I've never had a bad experience with Motorola before, they've always been great with any support I've needed, although that was pre-Lenovo, so maybe things are changing for the worst?

I think I'll just wait it out and pick up a nice, gently used model from Swappa in a couple months.

Returned mine to BestBuy rooted and unlocked, just FDR and wiped SD card at BestBuy. The guy said "man this phone is getting returned like crazy! Overheating too?" I said yeah, and he just scanned it and returned it. We talked for a minute and he knew his stuff. He basically was talking about how 808 and 810 are pretty much the same processor but 810 has two more cores, and it was bound to have the same issues. He was talking about waiting until 820's come out and everything. Really cool process, no questions asked other than that one. Apparently, people who are not on here are having issues. He's said I was the 4th person just today it was only 2 PM...

I really returned it because the whole bootloader thing and hearing things about Lenovos shady return and warranty practices on all of their devices. I was rooted anyways, and I didn't want to deal with that. At least with N5X (LG) I can reset tamper flag and they can't prove it was rooted or unlocked. Which I did 3 RMAs with N5, and always do at least 1 a year with all smartphones and tablets. Not to mention Google warranty is amazing. 2 day shipping on replacements is nice, and paid for return logos can't be beat. Good customer service is hard to find too.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devsk:
"The guy" does not know anything...:D These two CPUs are anything but the same processor.

What's this heat issue now? I own this device and don't feel it got warm even during the 100+ temperatures we recently saw. It does get a little warm when turbo charging and that's expected, but its not like "you can't hold the device" warm, its more like "its warmer than my skin" warm. So, MXPE getting returned in droves because of heat issues is pretty much a myth like the "returning because MXPE's battery sucks" or "returning because MXPE's IPS display sucks".

I have submitted my request and now awaiting the return label from Moto.

Reasons for returning, I had high expectations for the Moto X for the past 2 years and just underwhelmed. Coming from the N6:

1) Amoled to LCD is just a let down. The previous Moto X had introduced me to the screen type and I had hoped it would stay for this version. The colors are just too gorgeous to let go.

2) Moto Suites just not as smooth and responsive as I hoped for. I had software on the N6 to replicate several features of the Moto X, not as good but more responsive and consistent. The Moto X assist reacted too slow to determine if I was driving or at work. Moto Display just not the same without Amoled. Moto Voice didn't recognize my commands some of the time.

3) Rooting voided the warranty, not that I ever had a bad phone from rooting but I want the assurance that Moto would still back me.

I loved the smaller size of the Moto X and its additional sensors. But using the N6 for the past year, I feel that I can manage with what I already have.

Google introduced new SafetyNet API for app developers to check "device compatibility". Basically, if your device is rooted/modified, this check will always return "false" and then app would disable some of its features, if not all. This module changes this device compatibility check and now it always returns "true" so app "thinks" it runs on unmodified, unrooted Android device and all features are available.

I have a Samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition and am curious about something. Is there a way to swap out the SoC, with proper tools, in order to improve performance and multitasking abilities? I love my tablet but it's starting to feel outdated and since Samsung hasn't announced a 2015 version, I figure my best bet would be to put in a Snapdragon 820 once it's released.

SoCs are soldered into the motherboard, so it's not possible

Even if it were possible to physically change the SoC, you'd need to modify the kernel to support it, which pretty much only people who've worked at a smartphone manufacturer would know how to do
