Moto X + Coming Soon

The Moto + Lenovo new smartphone Moto x+ coming soon according to them alleged Moto X+1 leaks on camera, they are now in possession of a Moto X+1 prototype.( Looks like we may have just gotten our first look at the upcoming Motorola Moto X+1 in a new hands-on video. Well, the boot animation (and a lot of watermarks) )

Moto x +


Seems like Motorola is trying to sell out of the X fast. I'm sure carriers will be dropping the off contract price too. However I'm looking forward to see what the X+1 is taking about as well. 

I think it'll come in 16,32,64gb setups with an SD card expansion. wondering if I can get a great deal on a larger storage X when the x+1 comes out, 2gb RAM (I'm not fussed with the RAM since the X held up very well) a 1080p display. Nothing really detailed, hope they keep it at 4.7 inches.

Smartphone will reportedly be thinner and feature a 5-inch 1080p Full HD AMOLED display as well as a microSD expansion slot that will support up to 128 GB microSD cards, i have never had need for an SD card slot, but its nice to have around. 5", 1080p, with a "better" camera, even Sony which makes some of the best standalone cameras in the world. throw in the snapdragon 805 and use it's listening core and Lenovo may have to chase customers off with sticks.

I want to know its dimensions. I have big hands and long fingers and even me, I don't like a device that takes it's width beyond 69mm. Call me crazy but that's just me. The moto X impressed me because it had a large 4.7" display and was 65mm in width. That's narrower than a GT i9100.
I'm wishing that's the case with this.manufacturers suck at naming their devices.  Why don't they just keep calling it the Moto X?  Why the Moto X+1?  That just sounds dumb.  Same with the OnePlus.

My last purchase Moto x ( 2013 ) was based on best camera available for my needs, and I was disappointed. I realised weeks pass by before I even take a pic from my smartphone, probably its my routine life!! Very few devices consistently perform like "new" Moto devices and very few devices get consistent update. Moto has added some nice software addition and the method of updating is again great. No device is perfect, but with Moto, atleast I can be sure that the only trade off I will need to make is something I will know while I am buying the device. I won't have to worry about performance or updates in future. 

Moto X  is the first phone I've ever had where I have absolutely no desire to root and flash a custom ROM over the top. The additions that Motorola have made to the stock Android UI really make it the most perfect device, in my mind. I plan on keeping this phone for a good long while.

Having used many devices during my time with the Moto X, I keep coming back to the Moto X as my daily driver. Best user experience on any Android phone for me dating back to the G1 up to the present. I can't wait for the second edition of the Moto X.

A question, How much do you like the miui v5, since its very popular in china find it hard to find good english spoken reviews on it.  I having a z1 wich performs very good, but miui always attracted me. so im doubting between this redmi note, a mi3, or one plus one or just keeping the z1. what features of miui won you over to go for it?   think the MIUI is the most refined gui you can try in Android world. Little tweaks here and there, nice apps and a fully professional aesthetic design everywhere. If you don't like the launcher

I'd love to own a Xiaomi phone. I've ised MIUI several times and must say that it's an excellent ui. It actually adds to the android experience instead of bogging it down with a bunch of useless crap like touchwiz and sense do.
