    Negatives to Note 4

    Let me hear the negatives before I pull the trigger and get one. Been debating about sticking with iOS, which I'm bored with again, getting a Nexus 6 or a Moto X. I thought the S pen looked very cool when I saw it today. Is it a gimmick? Are people really using it? Nexus 6 looks good, but...

    One handed mode?

    I'm considering jumping back into Android. Considering several different phones (Note 4, Moto X 2014 and Nexus 6). They all have positives and negatives. One thing I am concerned with is the size of the Nexus 6 and Note 4. The Note 4 does have a slick one handed mode. Does the Nexus 6...

    Considering Jumping back in - have a few questions

    Previously owned the 2013 Moto X but the camera was simply too poor to keep. Considering the cybermonday deal today but have a few questions, if anyone can answer. I'm also considering the Nexus 6 or Note 4 but they may be too large. 1) How is the camera? I saw initial reviews were mixed...

    Do you think the Moto X (2014) price matches the value?

    Huh? You need to re-read my post. I never once said the 2013 Moto X was priced right. In fact I said the opposite. I said there were many complaints (which I agree with) that it was priced too high. Motorola corrected that problem.

    Do you think the Moto X (2014) price matches the value?

    They are not playing to different consumers. They compete head to head in just about every review. If I'm looking for a higher end Android phone that isn't an oversized phablet, I'm going to look at the Moto X, the LG G3, the GS5, the HTC One and the Nexus 5. As you stated, the Note is a...

    The G3 is in exactly the same market as the Moto X.

    Moto X (second generation): Price (Starts at $499.99 off-contract!)

    The Moto X is competing with the likes of the LG G3, which is only slightly more expensive with a bigger screen, bigger battery and an SD card slot. The cloud costs data (ie money) and doesn't work in airplanes.

    Do you think the Moto X (2014) price matches the value?

    No, it's not worth it and your initial number of $150 more is incorrect. The LG G3 is $579 for a 32gig model. The Moto X is $499 for the 16gig model and is likely to push to $549 for the 32. The difference is more like $30 rather than $150. IMO, it is priced $100 too high.

    Moto X (second generation): Price (Starts at $499.99 off-contract!)

    With no SD card while the lower end G does. I don't get it.

    Nexus 6/Shamu by Motorola?

    Tell your friend there is nothing good about a six inch phone and to make it smaller.

    LG G3 Stock Launcher & Google Now Launcher - What are the differences?

    Probably getting a G3 tomorrow. I really like the Google Launcher. If I change to the GEL, what do I lose as compared to the stock launcher. I did read I would lose the Knock Off, not a big deal. Is there anything else, ie like the multiscreen feature, that I would lose?

    Google now launcher

    Can you still have or use the smart notice widget if you are using the Google Now launcher?

    Google Now To send text and email

    Thought the answer to this would be easier to find but, will Google Now voice commands now allow me to draft a text or an email and send without touching the phone. IIRC the last time I was using Android, it did not, it would create the message but I had to manually hit send, which kind of...

    Moto X: The camera on this phone is an absolute joke

    On XDA someone posted the camera app version number on 4.4.2 and it was different from what is in the store.
