Moto X Design

[Ryandroid86]

If this is truely the new look of the Motorola X, Then I must say Im impressed....
I just see one problem that all the companies seem to be doing now.

Where is the Bezel???? I know some might say "are you crazy... its beautiful" and I agree. But Im a more practical person. I hate grabbing someone elses phone and hit the recent key and home button at the same time. Does anyone else agree? or are the looks more important?

Pretty sure that's just a fan render.....

Probably won't look like that... most likely it won't. But that is rather attractive. I too, like you like having the bezel. Looks like The One.

Yeah I figured they were just renderings. I still want this phone and Im sure it will be close to this.
but the fact remains... I love me some bezel and the phones keep becoming smaller and smaller.

Im alright we no bezels on the side. but the top and bottom need more than what these renderings depict

The side bezels are what are most important. You don't grasp your phone from top to bottom, you grasp it from side to side. Minimal to no bezel means with regular grasping of the phone the screen will recognize it as a launching action.

maybe I grab phones weirdly then...When someone hands me there phone. I try not to touch there screen and I go straight for the top or bottom.
Its only natural to pick it up from the sides if its laying flat on a desk. (for me at least)

Hm, that's definitely different. I guess to each their own.

That render reminds me of the Oppo Find 5.

I think it's going to be a great phone but the big question will be is it worth giving up unlimited data on my grandfathered plan. I just don't know if I can do that

There are ways to upgrade without losing unlimited.
1. Buy it outright
2. Buy it on their new Finance plan - down payment similar to the subsidized price, pay the rest over 24 months + $2 month finance charge
3. Upgrade with subsidy using the Keep Unlimited method described here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon/227608-instruction-how-keep-unlimited-data-verizon.html

I know it is a fan's rendition so anything is possible in make-believe-land, but I think it'd be kind of cool if that was a rubberized back similar to the Nexus 7.

If you look closely at the render, there is a bezel on both the top and bottom; easiest to see in the shot where it's off.
