Who is interested in getting one?

I would consider it... Depends on the promotion... I would get one if they included the cam mod free (hey we can dream right?)

I kind of like the regular glass rather than the shattershield on the Z Force.

Not really fond of the back glass... Easy to damage if dropped... And you can't use a case if you use moto mod

I don't understand the decision to go with glass on the back since there's no wireless charging. That's the only situation for which a glass back makes an iota of sense to me.

I suspect the reasoning for the glass back is:
- looks
- cheaper to make look nice than the high quality stainless on the Z/Z Force.

I'm pretty sure there has to be a metal panel right behind the glass back, because from what I can tell the magnets are only in the mods, and the phone has metal for the magnets to cling to. I suspect they're able to use a less expensive metal (and not have to decorate it) on the Play since it's not seen or exposed to skin oils, etc.
