So Verizon is about to sell its version of Moto X Play for $384 (and undoubtedly glued to Verizon).

What catches my eye is the X Play / Maxx 2 battery is rated on GSMArena to be about 32% longer endurance than Pure: 83h vs 63h.

Aside from that Pure compares very favorably. Thoughts?

Pure/Style has a 3000 mAh battery and a 5.7" 1440p screen while the Play/Maxx has a 3630 mAh battery and 5.5" 1080p screen and Snapdragon 615 Processor. As the battery is 21% larger and it is pushing fewer pixels with a slightly less intense processor, seeing a 20-30% difference in battery life would not be shocking.
