Possible Moto x 2015 teaser pics posted.

Not loving a top-mount headphone jack.

The first two iterations had it so this shouldn't be a surprise. But I remember reviewers slamming the Galaxy Nexus for having the headphone jack on the bottom. I personally preferred the latter but it doesn't make or break anything to me either way.

A few questions I have regarding Moto X phones in general, as I'm considering getting either the Moto X phablet or the Huawei Nexus:

1. Are you able to browse the web or use YouTube while on a call?

2. Does the phone stay charging if you pick it up to use it while plugged in?

3. Has Motorola implemented some sort of multi-window feature yet?

4. How is the standby time on Moto X phones, in terms of overnight battery drain?

on the first question I think that's a network settings issue, no? if it's set to global it can't do both. that's all I got.

On Verizon the 2014 x cannot do voice and data because it never got the volte update. The 2013 can because back then the phones on Verizon had two radios. I would assume the 2015 can only do voice and data via volte which would hopefully be available out of the box seeing as it was promised for the 2014 x but never arrived.

It probably wouldn't be a deal-killer for me either, but I hate putting the phone in my pocket "backwards."

1. Are you able to browse the web or use YouTube while on a call? Depends on network.

2. Does the phone stay charging if you pick it up to use it while plugged in? Yeah, probably. Always has but idk about quick charge.

3. Has Motorola implemented some sort of multi-window feature yet? Nope

4. How is the standby time on Moto X phones, in terms of overnight battery drain? M is supposed to bring it better. But atm it's prob on par with every other Android phone out there.

Yeah, I preferred the bottom location, too. But, again, I won't lose any sleep over it.

It looks like the Moto X phablet. Hmm, interesting indeed!

I try not and get excited until release date, but that pic has me drooling ... I've been patiently waiting to see something I like in 2015, and if be lying if I said my hopes aren't extremely high (looking to upgrade S4 and Nexus 4) ... I'm not optimistic about the camera, I just want an improvement. And normally aesthetics don't really excite me, but that's one good looking phone!!

I traded in my Nexus 6 because it was too wide for me to feel comfortable holding it. Looking at these specs. Maybe 75mm is closer to a sweet spot?

I did mean to post it here. I was showing that the Nexus 6 is slightly taller and much wider while the Note 4 is just as tall and just slightly larger. My point is that I returned my Nexus because it was too wide and just slightly too tall. The specs for the new MotoX seem to fit right in that sweet spot.

This pic is closer to actual scale given the leaked specs.

Make sense?

oh cool, yeah I gotcha ... I didn't see the moto x measurements first time around. And to your point, I definitely agree. I don't mind talk, but I really don't like the look or feel of wider phones.

I believe that you're right, though I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed that I'm not seeing the infrared sensors that were on last year's model. I have the 2013 Moto X and I really wanted to try that feature out. Though they might be there and just not visible due to the black front. That potential concern aside, I must admit that I am incredibly psyched for this new phone!
