Hey all. I'm in between classes so I figured I'd get a discussion going. I am up for an upgrade (have been since January) and was all set on the Moto X. I am using the 2013 X and love the phone but the battery leaves a bit to be desired. I also have a Galaxy S4 which I don't use often anymore but I still pull it out from time to time when I'm out and about because the battery life is better.
With the announcement of the 2014 X and the somewhat small battery and questionable camera I was a bit disappointed. Not a deal breaker but I was expecting more. Then comes the first leak of the Turbo on Verizon (I'm on Verizon) and some specs. Was not a fan of the look of the Razr series so I didn't think too much of it. Then the manual leak with the specs and red back leaked photo (which looks like the Moto X) and thats when I really questioned the X. Why did Moto give a huge battery and what seems to be a much better camera to the Turbo and leave the X out of the picture, which was regarded as phone of the year last year by some sources? Was their plan to market the Turbo the entire time? Anyone else question how these 2 phones played out.
