    Help recommend a quality Nexus 5x rubber/silicone case?

    Huge fan of the Cruzerlite TPU cases. I like that they don't put buttons on the buttons but leave cutouts for the buttons on the phone.

    Change Nexus 5X Emoji

    You could install Textra... They have an iOS emoji pack available.

    Android Central Spins Up My Computer Fans

    I do occasionally visit click bait sites to read a silly story or two and they always cause my computer fans to speed up a bit. Now what do these sites have in common with Android Central... Only thing I can figure is it's related to the many ads on such sites. It is much better when using the...

    "I've ordered my Nexus 5X" (Order & Shipping Discussion)

    Order a 16GB carbon about 3:30 am Friday the 27th, it was delivered 9am Saturday the 28th. FedEx site said weekday delivery so I was totally thinking Monday at the earliest. It did ship from a town within 20 miles of me, might have had something to do with the speedy shipping. ;)

    Anybody go from a 2015 Moto X Pure to a 5X?

    Currently using the Moto X Pure 2015 but I picked up the 5x via the Black Friday deal and it showed up yesterday, it's in a box behind me. ;) 2 reasons I'm leaving the Moto X Pure 2015, same reason I left the 2014 version (fool me once shame on you... fool me twice shame on me... OK, shame on...

    Did you get the 16GB?

    I could probably get by with 8. ;) My music and photos are backed up in the cloud with Google. T-mobile lets me stream my Google Play, Hulu & Netflix free of data usage. I just need a few weather apps installed and I'm good. :)

    What are your favorite cases for the Moto X Pure Edition?

    Just a follow up on this case by DuroCase... Someone had asked how it felt and if it was slick. At the time I hadn't received my Moto yet and it didn't feel bad, but now after a couple days with this case on I have to say I really like it. I didn't think I'd be crazy for the 2 piece design...

    Motorola sales told me that we will only get OS updates for one year

    Re: OS updates only for one year. Yes we are all "Nerds" here! Words hurt! ;)

    "I've ordered my Moto X Style" (Order & Shipping Discussion)

    Re: "I've ordered my Moto X Style" (Order & Shipping Discussion) Drop me in the "shipped" list, as of about 2 minutes ago. ;)

    What are your favorite cases for the Moto X Pure Edition?

    Somewhere in between. It does have a slight bit of texture to it, so it doesn't feel like what I would call slick. Yet not as grippy as some TPU cases. Wish I could explain better but it doesn't feel bad and I think I'm going to be just fine with it. I've had a Spigen case on an older phone...

    What are your favorite cases for the Moto X Pure Edition?

    You might be in luck with the Ringke... They now have Invisible Defender screen protectors listed on their site but not released until Oct 31st. Maybe some cases coming?

    What are your favorite cases for the Moto X Pure Edition?

    I received one of those cases yesterday DuroCase. Really the only option right now as I like a case that doesn't cover the phone buttons. No, it's certainly not going to save you from a drop but the case seems well made and it'll keep my grubby hands off of it. ;) Waiting for a Cruzerlite...

    AT&T: What do I need to get the Moto X Pure Edition working on AT&T?

    Re: Just ordered a Pure. What do I need? Not sure about AT&T but at T-Mobile they are $15, so I wouldn't imagine much more than that. I've been to T-Mobile a couple times in the last 6 months for new sim cards and they've given them to me for free. You might get lucky and run into a nice AT&T...

    New front page redesign feedback!

    Android Central was once the only site I'd bother to visit for the latest news but honestly this sites current condition is forcing me to check out other options much more often. The only reason I even bother visiting at all anymore our the forums and it's great user base, full of helpful fans...
