    Good link for the differences between the unlocked and T-mobile 6T?

    To make a long story short, I jumped to an unlocked 6T after my Motorola MXPE began having issues holding a charge longer than 3 hours and taking forever to activate the camera app. After a recent vacation trip to Hawaii, my father was astounded by the photos my 6T took and is contemplating...

    In 2009 I was rocking my first smart phone, the iPhone 3G. Now I am enjoying my 2nd Android device, the OnePlus 6T.

    If you decide to replace your Moto X PE what phone would you get?

    It is, and you're right it does have a nice clean Nexus feel to it. I'll admit I had second thoughts after ordering it and thought maybe I'd only test drive it for a week and then "settle" for a Z3. (Honestly I was hoping the Motorola One's had better specs) But it is a very pure experience...

    If you decide to replace your Moto X PE what phone would you get?

    That it definitely was. I was astonished when checking phonearena in comparing the MXPE to prospective replacements. How close the specs are, and in some ways are better. (PPI and Screen resolution) I wound up making the same decision. I thoroughly enjoy all of the Moto features the MXPE has...

    For those that have done it, is it worth replacing the battery, or... ?

    So I am now apparently part of the "MXPE failing battery" club as my phone now is not holding a charge through the day, or perhaps more importantly, it THINKS it isn't holding a charge. I have had it randomly shut off on me, only to plug it in and turn it on to show 40% battery. This of course...

    Anyone come from a Motorola? How are you liking Oxygen vs Moto's take?

    So I'm still rocking my 2016 Motorola Moto X, and it's beginning to get a bit long in the teeth and some problems are beginning to creep up. Mostly the battery life, and the responsiveness of the camera. As we all are creatures of habit, I've become accustomed to the quirks of Motorola's take...

    Has anyone tried loading Moto Display onto another manufacturer?

    As my phone is aging, and I've recently had some minor hiccups I've been looking at the current and upcoming crop of phones to select something that might replace my aging Moto X Pure. I've posted in the "what would you replace it with" thread, and looked at multiple comparison threads...

    If you decide to replace your Moto X PE what phone would you get?

    I didn't look at the Android One version, but the standard version. I'm not too sold on all glass phones. I'd prefer they revive the motomaker. I DID get a bit of a reprieve though, as a cell phone repair place had a "high quality" replacement screen in stock. ~$100 later back in business...

    Anyone had an issue with their screen suddenly going bezerk?

    Nope, I haven't dropped it recently, I'm generally very careful with my phones. Although I did buy it 2+ years ago so it's probable I dropped it at some point. I did call around up here and went to one of the more reputable cell phone repair shops up here. The tech claimed it is an LCD screen...

    List of Moto Mods

    Re: List of Available Moto Mods Anyone know where to find the Moto wood shells? I'm looking at possibly needing to replace my MXPE, but current Moto site doesn't show any.

    Anyone had an issue with their screen suddenly going bezerk?

    So last night as I was waiting for my mom's plane to arrive, I was sitting scrolling through the book of faces, and my phone's screen all a sudden flickered, pixelated, streaked, then darkened/inversed colors, then went black, then came back on. I power cycled it (as if that would help) and...

    If you decide to replace your Moto X PE what phone would you get?

    Well it looks as though the phone gods have chosen it's time to move on from my MXPE. It is a wonderful phone for the time it was created, and even today takes realy great photos (in the daytime). BUT an issue with my screen has cropped up. Now to review this thread and decide Pixel 2 XL...

    If you decide to replace your Moto X PE what phone would you get?

    Oddly enough, I just got a post on my FB feed about the One+ 5.. Haven't looked into it much but I may look at what they have to offer as well. I DO quite enjoy Motorola's take on Android, as it's simple and not bloatware like Samsungs. There don't seem to be many other manufacturer's out...

    Recommendations on selfie sticks?

    For those of you that have gotten into the selfie stick game, which sticks have you chosen to go with that work well with the Moto X Pure (2016)? I'm typically NOT a selfie person, however I will soon be making a trip with my brother and father and wish to be able to get us all in some shots...
