People say that Moto X Phone will drop in Aug., equipped a Dual-Core CPU, Clear-Pixle camera, and a Big battery which can let you using it for over 2 days. As the Nexus 4 has overheat problem, and a poor battery, easy smash glass back... which one would you prefer.
Actually my Nexus 4 can handle two days' usage, but it is really hot at sometimes. I would prefer Moto X phone, if it will be available soon..

I'll take the nexus 4 because I'm going to buy it when I get home from my holiday
sent from my blazing fast...... GT-19000..
Two things:
Nexus > Motorolas custom Android skin (and yes the X wont have stock Android)
High end > Mid range
I'd need to see the reviews once it's released to make any judgements on it over the N4.

I'd say the decision comes down to what the real specs and details are when it's all officially announced. If it's vanilla Android with Moto widgets as a bonus- it will be interesting.
With Google/Motorola looking at spending a TON on marketing for this phone; it's hard to imagine Google allowing Moto to release something that won't grab a lot of people's attention.
Also, where it's being sold can be a factor for Nexus 4 owners. If it's carrier only I won't buy it. If it's through Play Store then we're getting closer to raising my interest.

I think I would stick with the Nexus. I don't like the button placement on that phone, I like the flat slab feel of the Nexus, curved phones tend to feel funny to me, glass > plastic, Nexus has a quad core where the X is said to have a dual core, etc.
LTE, better camera, better battery, and a better looking phone.... It is hard to stick with the N4 after the Moto X is released. It's rumored to have the same price as the N4 and considering it is being sold on the Play Store, it is clearly going to have a stock experience.
Easily the Moto X. Smart Actions are awesome imo. I always like Moto's build quality too. Their cameras are average. I should've bought a Moto Atrix HD over the Nexus 4 myself. The LTE will be active on the Moto X. I am preparing to sell my Nexus 4 for the Moto X or S4 in the next few weeks. The Nexus 4 is flawed because the digitzer is visible on each device, the camera is not great at all, the phone overheats too much, the battery is not as good as other devices like the S3. Outside of those issues, the phone is a good overall product. You cannot have everything for $330 (after tax and shipping.) The Moto X will have a slightly faster processor (might be dual core, but still faster, 1.7 dual > 1.5 quad even though dual will be overworked a bit more), the camera will be a lot better at 10 MP, the build quality will be better, the OLED display will help, the battery should be a RAZR Maxx HD style battery at like 3100 mAh, LTE like said before, customization on the build quality and design of your choice, and you can always put a rom like CM10 on it.

The DROID 4 is upon us whether we are ready for it or not. The first pictures of it popped up a few weeks ago followed by signs pointing to it arriving on December 8. We also got confirmation that training has started for some Verizon shops, along with this set of official specs. Who knew we would see it so soon?
The D4 will have a 4″ screen (LCD or AMOLED?), 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, DROID RAZR styling, 5-row slideout keyboard, 4G LTE, front camera for video chatting and an 8MP rear camera. This could be the DROID that many of you have been waiting for. The Stratosphere had LTE and a keyboard, but this phone has top of the line specs to go with them.
On a related note, thoughts on the tool needed to remove the back cover? It doesn’t have a removable battery, but the cover can be removed using that circular tool pictured above, so that you can insert a SIM and SD card.
Source: http://www.droid-life.com/2011/11/2...nitely-a-big-razr-with-a-keyboard-and-4g-lte/
This is what the droid 3 should have been in the first place...Instead of opting for one standout phone though, Motorola decided to make 2 behind the curve phones in the time span of two months. They should give Droid 3 owners some kind of upgrade deal or something, that's just crazy.
edit: Did they get rid of the lip? If so, now I'm really upset, I always hated that lip at the bottom.
I strongly agree with you. The Droid 4 seems like the phone I've been waiting for the whole time. I'm quite sure Moto released the D3 with less superior hardware solely as a marketing strategy.
Too bad the battery's no longer swappable (with the exception of removing some additional covers)
I just got the droid 3 after tons of problems with the D2G. I must say, for not having paid for the phone, I'd be willing to pay for this D4. BUT, not being able to install an extended battery is a major dis. Sure the 1785mAh that this has is bigger then the 1500 the we have...but its still smaller than the 1950 the extended has. Who care how fast your phone is if its dead...
Does anyone know what version of Android this thing runs?

Don't buy it. Realy the droid 4 six months after the droid 3. Then there will be thr droid 5 six month after that. That's why as soon as I can I'm never going to own a carrier phone again. Its all nexus for me. Motorola has disapointed me very much . People sign the patition pn the thread abouve this one.

No thanks! There's no way in hell I'm carrying a 5" phone (phablet?). That's still a niche market, just as the S3 is Samsung's main phone, and the Note 2 is their phablet offering. Even HTC has the One X+ which competes with the Nexus 4, and the DNA which competes with the Note 2.
Damn that phone is fugly!

You know the great thing about Android? Don't like the Nexus specs? There are a plethora of other devices from you to choose from.
Don't like the N4 specs. Don't buy it. And feel free to pay quite a bit more.
Actually many people thought that HTC was going to make the next Nexus. I was surprised to hear they went with lg.
HTC could have used the boost this year for sure.
sent via xda premium with nexus 7 while waiting for my back ordered Nexus 4!
Personally I am rather happy with the specs of the Nexus 4 as they are. Although I will concede that a 32gb version would have been preferred. I don't want a phone with a 1920 x 1080 display (I personally consider the current 1280 x 768 a bit overkill) and I most definitely would not bother with a phone that has a screen size of 5". I am already finding the 4.7" screen on the Nexus 4 to be a bit on the large size.
This may sound odd but I wish phone manufacturers would take a break from giving us ridiculous resolutions, huge ass screens and gazillions of teraflops. Instead I wouldn't mind them concentrating on other features like improving battery lifespan
This forum is for discussion of news, tips, tricks, guides, howtos, etc related specifically to the Nexus 4. If you would like to post stuff like this, you need to do so in our Android General forums or on your own personal blog.

What do you think about the unknown NEXUS 5? I'm going to move him from P970 ...
It is a good choice? I like clean ANDROID and my price limit is $ 512 .. Would you propose a better device with better equipment for the same price?

I am not gonna answer your question since i am not sure whether or not this is a prank thread. Even your budget is dodgy.. $ 512?? what a specific number... Is that 1 buck for every ram in OB?
Anyway i'll give you my opinion about Nexus 5, so that you can make a comparison, on a chance that you are serious about this. Nexus 5 will most likely be manufactured by LG, based on the monster G2. LG is better hardwarewise speaking, but lacks in all other things.
(Off topic it is said that Korean G2 will have SD car slot and removable battery, but international version won't. Another .tupid LG decision. I was searching a replacement from LG for OB, and i came across a phone of theirs which doesn't have "flash". Who puts a camera without flash. As i said best hardware poor everything else)

Between all the flagship phablets released in 2014, what do you think is the most worthy opponent to the Note 4 to be considered before you go and buy the note 4.
I am evaluating my options here, and considering other phones like the LG G3 beside the Note 4.
Share what do you think is a worthy opponent to the note 4.
In terms of the Note 3 Zero.
No SPen = no competitors.
None are in the same class in terms of multi app usage either.
I'm considering a Z3, and if an HTC M8 Maxx was out, I would consider that too...My wife's G3 is a pretty nice phone as well.
If a stylus is important to you, then obviously there is NO competition..
The way I see it we have four options
1) a worthy oponent to the note 4 would be another colour of the note 4, say you have a black one then a white one would be a worthy oponent.
2) a note edge maybe
3) a note 3
4) if you dont want to spend so much money that is then the oneplus one.
These are my opinions.
There are no opponents to the note line to be totally honest.
I see xda site got a facelift.

i dont have any personal grudge against that phone, but the poor display talks for itself
There's nothing comparable when it comes to display. Displaymate says its the best mobile display ever. The closest is probably the iPhone 6+ 1080p display if you don't count the QHD which most people don't care about, and it is a distant second. That's what you get when you are the only ones with modern OLED tech on a phone.
Nothing comparable to the Snapdragon 805 of the Exynos either. I mean, literally there are no 805 phones yet and definitely no 20nm Exynos phones which is, again, a Samsung exclusive.
S-Pen and wacom digitizer. Of course no one has it.
Camera nothing is comparable. All those crappy Chinese phablets use the same 13MP sensor with terrible software processing. The Vibe Z2 Pro supposedly has the same 16MP OIS sensor, but I've seen more than a few reviews of it and the quality really sucks. Software does a whole lot, and the glass and camera unit they built the sensor into is likely not that great either. LG G3 isn't very sharp and their low light shots are very overexposed. and blur easy because they rely heavily on the OIS. Xperia Z2/Z3 is low contrast, underexposed, noisy, poor colors, and very inconsistent. It has no OIS either. The only superior cameras are iPhone 6/6+ for nightshots, and Nokia Pureview cameras. Basically nothing can compete with the Note 4 in Android. Android just really sucks with cameras in general.
another none here, but come to think of it little more, Note 3 is actually the only opponent. Others have no stylus and therefore not in the same class, Note 2 is little outdated. I know it's bad since my choices for phone are limited to 2 models, but I refuse to have phone without stylus.
I mean what was Google thinking...
6 inches for f***s sake. 5" was good enough, you could've taken it to 5.5" but 6 is just straight pain. Everything is so awesome and then you have many reasons not to upgrade to nexus 6 like 10.1 mm thickness the motorola logo on the back so big killing the grace of Nexus logo and of course the 6" giant display. We needed a phone and not a phablet.

I know and the purpose of this thread is Nexus 5 users' opinion on the phone.
The size is not the problem, the size of the price tag is. Damn, I can't even tell you how disappointed I am... Moto X 2014 GPE for me.
too big, too ugly, too much
Current Nexus 4 owner here who will not be buying the Nexus 6. I agree too big and too pricey. I only hope they continue to sell the Nexus 5 (32GB Black currently out of stock). That's the only phone I want to purchase now. Would have been nice if Google did a slight refresh of the Nexus 5 to sell to users who don't want a mammoth phone. If they had taken the Moto X and added Qi charging and called it the Nexus 5 (2014) I'd be ecstatic.
Beastly phone. It's such a shame it's so big, in my opinion.
Phablet users get to rejoice. Everyone else, not so much. Such a shame there's no updated Nexus 5.
Looks like I'm going to save some money. Too big, way more expensive and doesn't come in black. Not tempted at all in buying this and ditching my N5.
It comes in pints? I'm getting one!
OK so quick question. Preorders start for this at the end of the month. Does anybody know if I will be charged as soon as I pre-order or if I won't be charged until it ships?

until it's official, it's just a guess, but as with the the other Nexus devices in the play store, you never got charged before it actually shipped.

Yeah that is what I was basing it on. How that's how it goes with nexus 6
Too many other options in that price range with the play editions out there. I would have bought it around $100-$150 more, but IMO its not worth $250 more. I'm staying with the 5 and probably buying a few more of those if they go on sale for my wife and kids.
Google missed the mark on this one, I guess they want us to help out for paying too much for Motorola...
I will wait for the device on display and compare before I buy it (maybe not), the size does concern me, the thickness (1cm) and weighs 50 grams more
