After the Moto X (2014) reveal, are you excited?

Well it does seem to be lacking in low light compared to the Nexus 5, at least in the situation Ars tested in. I'd like to see more comparisons under different low light conditions, but given that the daylight shots are pretty nice the camera is not a deal breaker for me by any means. A software update may potentially help address these issues; I recall the Nexus 5 camera was also improved by a later software update. Or was that the original Moto X?

The original x was also, it was noticeably improved afterwards but not earth shattering.

The Nexus 5 software update mostly was about fixing focus speed and accuracy. The picture quality was not really affected.

These pictures were prior to the update:







The Moto X 2014 does appear to have a better flash than the Nexus 5 though. Nexus 5 flash images are not great, which is why I never use the flash.

I would not expect a huge quality improvement with a patch, but it is likely they will fix the focusing issues the same way they did with the Nexus. Moto is obviously really concerned with support now, especially for their flagship products. As 3rd party vendors go they are probably the best one now.
