I've had the original Moto X for just over 2 years now. I absolutely love this phone. It is, however, starting to show its age.

I am certainly going to purchase the Moto X Style when I visit Seattle come September.
It's probably going to be as good as how I remember mine being when it was unboxed.

That being said, it's disappointing to see they dropped the AMOLED screen in favour for TFT. The whole idea behind the AMOLED was to save battery with active notifications enabled. No idea what this will do to the battery. It may not affect it at all. It won't stop me from buying it either.

moto x play comes out this fri

Moto X Play launching in Canada this Friday | MobileSyrup.com

it will be available through carriers except for rogers/fido.. and be $400 outright..

assuming moto x pure will be a $100 difference when it comes out in the states

how is motorola track record when updating android? i know they run an almost "vanilla" OS...

as much as i love my note 3, samsung takes a long ass time to release the updates

^lol

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/com...e_sensors_for/

other than that, the moto x play has been getting decent amount of reviews

https://www.androidpit.com/motorola-moto-x-play-review

Review: Motorola Moto X Play - Canadian Reviewer - Reviews, News and Opinion with a Canadian Perspective

its the specs that baffles my mind.. $400 for Snapdragon 615 and 2gb of ram.. reviews say it runs without a hitch but cant help but compare to asus zenfone 2 or even one plus one for similar price..

the battery and the camera is its in main selling point..

i think motorola will eventually release the Style here eventually like how Play will be released in the states under the name Droid Maxx2.. possibly under rogers/fido exclusive since they the only ones not carrying the Play

id still rather buy it unlock

16GB. If I need more storage that's what expandable storage is for.

I still use my MotoX first generation... The phone is still functional, but the battery barely lasts me a work day.

I am thinking of upgrading to either a newer Moto X when the time comes or Samsung S6 Active if they ever release it in Canada.
