Hello all!
I recently got the LG G2 (White) and now I heard the $150 off Cyber Monday Deal for Moto X
How many of you would consider the switch?
What would you lose from LG G2 and gain from the Moto X?
(yes I posted this on the LG G2 and one here because I know there will be a Bias towards the phones they currently own)
First, know that the Cyber Monday is off of full price models only, making them $350 and $400.
Okay, now for G2 vs. Moto X.
Positives for going with the Moto X:
1. Updates. LG has a terrible track record with updating their flagship phones and Motorola is looking like they are serious about keeping their phones up to date. So if that is something you care about, there is a point for the Moto X.
2. Always Listening and other features. I think Motorola has the most consumer friendly added features of any Android handset manufacturer. They focused more on adding a few features that people will actually uses instead of going the Samsung, LG, and to a lesser extent HTC route of shoe horning in a bunch of features that make impressive demos and then aren't used.
3. Form factor. Moto X is easily used with one hand, G2 is a bit large for that
4. Customization. Can with the Moto X, G2 you get white or black.
5. Stock Android. I don't like LG's skin, I think it is ugly. Motorola uses the stock Android UI, which I much prefer.
G2 Positives
1. Performance. The Moto X is no slouch performance wise, but the G2 has truly top notch specs.
2. Screen. G2 has a bigger, higher resolution display. If that is a big factor for you, point G2.
3. "Features". The G2 took the Samsung approach and crammed every software feature they could think of into their phone. If you like that (I don't), the G2 will have more features (just look at that notification shade, its half full of "features" out of the box)
