Finally finally finally upgraded. After months and months of arguing with myself between iphone, android, and bb10 I decided to go android.
After playing with devices in the store I just couldn't resist the in-hand feel of the moto x, so off I went. When I got home I noticed the casing was cracked on the side by the sim; when I returned it they pulled out another one and same thing. Long story short, it was their last one and I had driven 2 hours to get there. As we mulled options I mentioned that I also liked the maxx but it was $100 more; the salesperson said "well you're in luck, the price dropped today so we can do an even trade".
So let me see, bigger screen, twice the memory, much longer battery life, love the kevlar look, for the same price - no brainer right? except I just couldn't get past the in-hand feel, the X was much much more comfortable. But I finally figured the other factors trumped feel and I'll get used to it. About 24 hours later, very happy this series of "unfortunate events" happened.
So Maxx it is . . break out the cigars, and drinks all around =)
