ANY advantages of Moto X over Nexus 6 (apart from smaller screen size)?

[quietlybrilliant]

I wonder if the Nexus 6 will be capable of some of the genuine Moto X features like always listening and notifications? I know with the Nexus 5 this was not possible in part because the screen wasn't AMOLED. But the Nexus 6 is AMOLED so maybe it can have the same features?

The wireless charging, bigger battery, OIS, as well as stereo front speakers are all serious reasons for me to consider selling my Moto X. Only reason I can think of for keeping it are the software features.

Yes active display and that moto stuff but do you like your moto x 2014? if not get n6 if so and its still good just use it no need to upgrade

Moto X is $500 and Nexus 6 is $650, so that's another reason.

Is it really a Nexus device if they install the Moto Apps on it?

My guess would be that they don't install them on it.

However if there are no hardware limitations, they could be added later through new bootloaders, etc.

With the Nexus 5, this wasn't possible (made by LG, LCD instead of AMOLED screen, etc), but it seems the Nexus 6 is so close to Moto X in terms of hardware that it might be possible.
