So its like a mirror reflective from the back camera to your face? Pretty clever I say.

They haven't release it yet they call it onemoreface, I think they are still in the state of building it maybe a few more months hopefully january and when they finally release it hopefully its compatible with G2. This addon will solved my issues regarding my constant use of video call :happy:excited:

I'd buy it. Never video call, but still cool to have.

Plus it's a 5MP front camera

Now that's a spicy meatball!!! LOL!

I cant find any information about the release date or where we can buy it .
the name "one more face" doesnt make searching for it easier .lol

i literally just spit my drink out reading this, lol. thanks
on topic tho, i would probably buy it just to try it, lol.

HeHe, I almost fell off my chair............5 MPXs too........................tks MacMax!

I want one lol cant wait til they're released

I Hope this will get released soon and for a few different models other then the Nexus One in the picture, I will buy at least two one for my Nexus the other for the HTC Desire Z , but I got a funny feeling that by the time this rolls out it might be to late, within the next six months most smart phones will all have what Nokia has been doing for years, front face cameras, then this gadget will be to late.
my $0.02 cents

It would be too late if in six months everyone ditches their phone for one with an ffc. Ill have my g2 longer than that. And I don't know why it would take 6 months to release two mirrors that mount to the top of your phone. You could ?ake this for yourself right now it looks like.
That said ill buy one if it comes out

Agreed that it is a good phone. But the big selling point for the T-Bolt was it's 4G capibility. But yes, I'd get something 3G, dual core.
Just throwing it out there to see if anyone is interested.

Wow... Deja Vu...
I JUST did this a few weeks ago... I actually sold it here on the XDA forum. I bought the DX2... Although I really liked the Dx2 I missed some of the features of the Tbolt. After only a could of weeks I sold the X2 and got another Tbolt...
Long story short... You'll likely miss the Tbolt
Good luch though... whatever you try to do.

considering verizon only offers 1 dual core phone, that from what I've read has been disappointing...
Does the x2 even have gingerbread yet? Android doesn't use the dual core processor properly in froyo.

Motorola X phone!

I thought I would start this thread about the much anticipated and highly fabled Motorola X phone, and quite possibly being the new Nexus 5 device.
Please state any relevant information, such as verified rumors and/or trusted leaks from reliable sources that you might have.
Also, what would you like to see in this upcoming super phone? Let's start the chatter folks
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium

You first! I know nothing about it!

Anyone else find it interesting that X phone has passed through the Fcc for all other US carriers but not T Mobile? I've looked on the T Mobile website and I don't see any kind of Motorola devices at all. I also don't see any mention of T Mobile on the Motorola website. In fact the last couple devices the T Mobile has had for Motorola were released 2 years ago I think it was the Defy and the clique. Anyone here anything about a TMobile variant of the X phone? I wouldn't necessarily be interested in a unlocked version because they usually don't support T Mobile's wifi calling.

New rumors said that Android 5.0 and Motorola X Phone both dropping in October. So far, of course, these are rumors.

I have also heard those same rumors and then I also heard that the Motorola X might very well be the Nexus 5 phone with such amazing specs as Android 5.0 and customizable features such as 4gb of Ram and 128gb of internal storage plus an SD card slot just to name a few. I really do hope these to be true. I will be buying this phone and would really like it to blow away all of the competition, Motorola and Google are due

It could have something to do with those sensors they talked about. How the phone will know if it's in your pocket or in the car and at what speed you are actually traveling.

Nexus 5 users - any regrets ?

Hi All
I'm actually planning to buy 32gigs white version but I'm sort of confused. I also like the z1 compact.
So please everyone post your opinions and regrets (If any).
Thanks.
Sent from my GT-I8262 using Tapatalk

I have the 32GB white version and don´t have any regrets at all. This phone is very solid for the cheap price

I am nexus...er, ...nexusian? Nexian? idk, im forever bought into its ecosystem. Google owns me basically, nexus lines is jsut what i look for in a phone, simplicity, no flashy flashy, no competition and key/relevant features. Im never going back to another phone after the nexus 4/5, its a no regret phone for me.

Agreed. I have the same device and color. Nothing to regret. Easy on the wallet, good battery, great software. Definitely the best phone I've ever owned.

The only regret I have is not buying my 32GB White Nexus 5 sooner!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk 2

Search the forums and decide for yourself.. After all you are in the Nexus 5 forums so most probably everyone's opinion would be biased.
Here is a topic you might consider reading: Would You Guys Still Recommend the Nexus 5?
That being said, Personally I don't have any regrets buying this phone as it's DEVELOPMENT friendly

If you every conside the z1 compact, then you may not suitable to get a Nexus device. Conside that the nexus line are talk about baseline android experience, which other device give you a more complete package with add on from the manufacturer.

32gb bright red with no regrets!

It's not a perfect phone, but I never had any doubts or regrets buying it. Happy owner of white 32GB version

My only regret is not buying the red version, but who would have saw that coming on launch day?

Don't get this phone if your care about camera and good battery and crap load of bugs

I'm concerned just about the battery. Wait , even the speakers !

not true, unless youre just an inexperienced user that knows nothing about setting up your own phone and taking care of it. no bugs here, camera works perfectly(and is an awesome camera). and battery life is great, i get 5-6 hours screen on time without doing anything to try to get better battery life.

No regrets. I'm quite pleased with this device. Looks good and functions well.

Bought this phone by virtue of my HTC One had to be sent for repairs.
After about a week of usage think I'll be selling of my One once it comes back.
Amazed by the simplicity of the stock android albeit I miss some of the apps and UI of the HTC but most can be downloaded from the Store. The Nexus is snappier and much smoother and fluid.
Battery is better on the Nexus,I'm impressed. Camera too is better especially in low light conditions. What I miss most is the frontal speakers of the One with Boom base..compared to the puny speakers on the Nexus 5..but I guess we can't have it all..so in conclusion.. no regrets!

Absolutely not , no regrets at all. I am a proud owner of this beast.

poor battery

I don'r regret at all. I bought 16GB black version of it,because 32GB version wasn't being sold then,but it's absolutely doesn't make me any problem because I don't play HD games that requires a lot of free space at all,and now i'm having 8.80GB free.:good:
If about battery it's would the weakest Nexus 5 point but I can live with that because I'm enjoying on using my Nexus 5 everyday and still can't get enough of it,because it's amazing! :good:

Yes really
While my Z2 with its stock setup can easily hit 5hrs SOT and about 3 days of life
My z5 is a tad of a struggle to get past 4hrs SOT unless i want to run with some lag or some weirdness (cant record video with my corectl setup)

z3
pro=without a doubt.....better battery life, better development, and very cheap to buy
con=a year old, about to reach two years i guess
z5
pro=fingerprint scanner
con=battery life not better, less development (unless you planning to unlock the BL if you want root), and very expensive since its still pretty new
z3 is just better in my opinion

I came from Z2, went for Z5 and i noticed the battery is not better than my Z2.. Id be lucky to get 4-5 screen on time. I just bought Z5 because of the fingerprint scanner which is cool and doing so well. Though the camera is kind of disappointing.
The phone itself (z5) is slippery as its thinner. Performance is lag-free. Overheating? It gets hot but only if you are a hardcore gamer, which im not anyway.
Well in my opinion just get Z3 as its better overall average in terms of performance and price.

Do apps like Facebook and Snapchat work lag free?

Honestly, unless there's really a good reason for wanting an xperia, get something else

In that case I wouldn't think twice and go for Z5! Newer and support will be longer. Unless you don't have access to electricity each day than I don't think the battery is such an issue.

That's pretty good. If it's new - for 70% less I would instantly buy it and immediately sell it for a little more and get me a z(5-x).
