So I ordered the 16GB Moto G U.S version on Amazon and waiting for them shipping it out on the 11th and it then occured to me the other phone that is around the same in specs ..the Samsung Galaxy Nexus ..so I went on eBay to see if the price dropped on the unlocked version and its still $270 and up for a new one..
Why is the Nexus still more than the Moto G?
Last question, when is 4.4 KitKat coming to Moto G as in the exact date?

Its more because its discontinued and therefore harder to get...meaning people will more willingly pay higher price to get it.
Forget about the Gnex and stick to your Moto G lol, Ive got both atm Moto G is better overall.
And theres no exact date. Its coming sometime in January
I'm looking to get my mom on a framily group on sprint but when I went to look at the phones available I didn't see the moto g. This would be the perfect phone for her because she wont be doing much on it. Anyone know if there is a moto g compatible with the sprint network. I guess my next question would be is there anything like the moto g(droid mini, razr i) that would work on the sprint network.

I sure hope so. I have 5 of these phones in my family. This update has been too slow comming. It seems the the CDMA version has been overlooked. I have been told the Moto g was Motorola's top seller of all time. Maybe they are having second thoughts of planned obsolescence. Does this matter to anyone else? It is alredy June and I was hoping for my lollipop in Februrary
Hello guys, if I unlock my current AT&T G3 and use say a Verizon service then does this mean I have have to use a Verizon Rom? Thanks.

You cannot use it on Verizon. Verizon is a CDMA carrier. The only way it will work on Verizon would be data / LTE only. No calls/sms. In the USA that phone will only work on AT&T/T-Mobile or any other GSM carrier.

That sucks :/. If your willing to sign a 2 year contract BestBuy has most of the new samsungs for $1 Also if your willing to add a line and keep it for at least 3 months you get $300 off if you trade in a phone. I recently got two G4s by adding lines ending up making $100 lol.
I love the G4. I cannot say about the V10. I don't like the upper screen personally I don't think it's useful. But the v10 is a great phone though.

It is tempting considering I have the 16gb model as well. But I still have ample space left on my phone since I reserve gaming on my PC. I just have a few casual games to kill a little time while waiting in line or at appointments. With a 128 GB card inserted, I have ample room for some music, movies, and pics.
Damn, sold out already.

Thanks for the note! Snagged one, too good a deal to pass up.
i just snagged one...thanks for the note
quick question...i think it comes with android 5.1.1 - i'm with sprint and using a gs5 and will replace it with this moto...when i received the moto, how do i upgrade it to 6.1 or whatever it should be now - without activate it on sprint first? or i will have to ask sprint to activate the moto with them first then take their OTA? my current gs5 is rooted and have the wifi hotspot enabled...that's all i want on this moto
checking on other threads, they said i'll need to request a bootloader unlock, then root, then flash another rom.
first time moto, first time using an unlocked phone here
thanks experts,
You do not need to upgrade to 6.X before flashing a custom 6.X ROM.

You should not have to install a SIM to update to 6.0 (current release for the Moto X Pure), just configure the phone with your Google account and you should be able to update via WiFi. And you may not need to root to enable hotspot on Sprint, since it is not a carrier-branded phone the native hotspot feature may work out of the box, or if not you can use PdaNet/FoxFi. Personally I would not root the phone unless you really need to for a particular function.
Thanks for info. I'm still waiting for the phone. Best buy sent a text sorry for the delay. Hopefully they're not canceling it ?

Yeah, hope they're not out of them (again) already. Fyi there is also the 32 GB version available for $269 from BB. For only $10 more the 64 GB is a better deal but if they're out the 32 GB is an option -- since the Moto X will accept an SD card for music/movies/whatever you don't really need 64 GB of internal memory in most cases.
.
I gave in and bought one also.
Even if the MXP 2016 is announced this week, it'll still be a while before its dropped and then a while longer before AOSP ROM's are available and stable.
Is there even going to be a MXP 2016? I thought the newly-released Moto Z was the replacement, and that is not what I want at all (USB-C, no audio jack, etc.)
Supposedly it's going to be announced sometime over the next few days at some electronics show going on right now.
*Rumors*
I'm pretty sure that the flagship for 2016 is the Moto Z, with the 3 new Moto G models making up the mid-line. I don't think there is going to be such a thing as a MXPE 2016, but maybe I'm wrong.
Man, awhile back like 3 weeks ago I got mine from best buy brand new 32gb for 250 ,black model ..plus additional 10 bucks off with visa checkout ..I guess I got a great deal on this since the refurbished is 279 .. I came from a HTC one m9 that bit the dust
That was a good deal for new, normal price for the 32 is $350 and the 64 is $399.
I received my 64 GB refurnished unit today. Condition was like new but they only included a lame ass standard charger, not the QC 2.0 charger that comes with the new units. Disappointing but oh well, they're only about $13 from Amazon.

I remember when my mom managed to snag the last stock of the 32GB X Pure from our nearest BB store for that price as well. I didn't even notice it was the 32GB one until I saw it on the cash register screen. It was probably the best deal I've seen for something of that caliber in a good while.

Slickdeals.net my friend ..that's the website I check religiously for deals and I happened to findd it a day after my m9 busted
It looks like these is in fact going to be a Moto X 2016, but it doesn't seem like anything we'd be interested in. A lower-spec phone (smaller screen, etc.) than the 2015 Moto X and probably won't be available for the US market. The flagship seems to have been transferred to the Moto Z.

The 32GB version is available today brand-new direct from Motorola.
Possibly with some restrictions though.
Ends 9/7. Motorola Store has the Motorola Moto X Pure Edition 32GB 5.7" Unlocked Smartphone (White & Silver or White & Blue) for $250 with free shipping. Select 32GB storage on the customization page to see the discounted price.
