    Got Moto Display functionality

    Yeah mentioned this in a previous reply but I used every function Moto had to offer. Glad to see nearly all of it has come to Pixel. After just 3 days with it, I've already gotten used to it. I too was sick of a 5.7 inch screen and no updates. The holiday sale at Verizon was too good to pass up.

    Reading texts out loud (while driving, for example)

    Hey, I just switched over from the Moto X 2014 (my third Moto X). Just got the Pixel yesterday so I may be unaware of a third party workaround or secret setting but there's no apparent "Talk to me" option. BUT, there is pick up to wake, double tap to check notifications, double press power for...

    5.0.2 update?

    I have the pure edition on T-Mobile and I'm still on 5.0... Not sure what the problem is, especially since I'm part of the Motorola Feedback Network.

    Moto X 2014 Whats your estimated delivery?

    Called yesterday. I'm moving next month and I wanted to make sure it wasn't going to be delayed because of any back ordered parts as someone previously mentioned. I guess they're all stocked up on ivory/black/black.

    Moto X 2014 Whats your estimated delivery?

    Ordered mine roughly five days ago. Estimated delivery was 10/14, it's at the FedEx warehouse, getting a tracking # today according to customer service. Before you get upset about ordering on day 1 without receiving a shipping notice yet, please note that I am upgrading from an OG Droid... I...

    Why is my S5 so laggy/sluggish when compared to my friend's new iPhone 6 Plus and old iPad 2?

    If you need SD & Removable batteries in your life (ie Samsung users) then avoid getting into a bragging-rights lag battle with your friends. It's aesthetically unpleasant but aside from direct comparisons, it's unnoticeable. Btw, this isn't an android vs Apple issue, it's a cluttered-android-UI...

    Which model are you buying?

    In a day and age where unlimited data can be tethered from a rooted mobile, I don't see the big deal about LTE unless you don't have a rootable smartphone or do not want to delve into the world of rooting (not that difficult coming from someone with little experience) but that's nothing more...

    How long from 'release date' to your doorstep?

    Hey dudes, sorry for another question based on rumors, but I really have no choice but to plan my purchase based on what-ifs due to the fact that I'm only back in the US for two weeks at a time every 4 months. My next break is from Aug 14-Aug 28 and I will be replacing my Nexus 7 (ridiculous...

    Another "what should I buy" thread: N7, Tab 2 or KFHD

    For what it's worth. I've used my N7 since the week it was released for at least 6 hours a day (studying, email, web, calendar, recording song demos and lectures, skyping with family) nearly every day since I bought it. The screen is slightly higher on one side than the other (almost to a...

    Nexus 4 vs Nexus 5

    Hello everyone, I'm in grad school out of the country and I'm looking for an unlocked phone I can use on the island as well as the US when I'm back on breaks, etc. The N4 is the only phone I'm considering, but with the N5 supposedly coming out around Christmas, I would consider buying the N5...

    Finding Nexus 7 serial number

    Wrong. The serious number in my status menu is different than the box # and will not work when attempting to register the device for a future repair.
