- I've been using smartphones since most people did not know they exist.
- I've had more Motorola phones than any other brand (I have 4 in use right now).
- I love my new Moto X but am disappointed in several things :-\
- I ordered it at noon Saturday and received it Tuesday AM - good job Motorola!
- I am so very pleased to have a made in USA phone (rather, "assembled" here, but at least some people got new jobs).
- I love OK Google Now, especially "find my phone"
Yet I'm disappointed in the following things, some of which are device-specific, others not. If you have a solution or workaround, please post it
When ordering, I gave my google account, but google sync was not set up :-\
I put in a name to customize it, but that only shows up when booting from total off state - big deal
It was @ Motorola on Monday, but an hour after booting on Tuesday it needed to download and install a critical update?
Love the dimple, but the camera lens is right where my finger goes when I pick it up - nice :-!
I was glad to use the migrate app from my Atrix HD, but annoyed that there was no option to select what data was migrated or not (for instance, my 32G SD card)
The play store needed me to go through my previously download apps one by one to install (I wanted check boxes to do some all at once)
I was excited to have the sleep screen particularly for the time, but have to stare at it on my desk for like 30 seconds to wait for it to pulse again. I want to choose to leave it on.
Moto Assist is a great concept but far too rigid:
- I want to easily TELL it I am driving and behind the wheel, not automatically go in driving mode anytime I am a passenger.
- I only would need meeting mode for SOME of my calendar entries, again I want to EASILY tell it I'm in an important meeting.
- Sleep mode is a great idea and it's good to be able to let favorites bypass it, but this is my only phone at my house and when sleeping I want to silence notifications and allow ALL calls to ring me - again, let ME choose. PS: fyi I don't sleep at the exact same hours every night, sometimes I'm out later or up earlier - duh :-!
- If it's sitting on my desk, leave the clock on
- If it's sitting in my cupholder, activate driving mode
- If it's on the nightstand activate sleep mode
- etc
