G+_Vance McAlister Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Looks like Verizon is going to heavily favor the Droid line over the Moto X on the sales floor. This makes some sense for them, but I wonder how Moto feels about that. And Google? I guess it may be "no Nexus for YOU!" :0) http://www.droid-life.com/2013/08/12/from-a-sales-perspective-how-verizon-looks-at-the-new-droids-vs-the-moto-x/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Robert Marshall Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Why does this surprise people? I mean, the whole "Droid" branding campaign costs a bunch of money and as soon as someone hear's "Droid" they know it's coming from Verizon. Am I wrong on that? And the spec chart shown in that article makes the MotoX look anemic compared to the others. I'm still rockin' the original Thunderbolt, including grandfathered unlimited data, so my moving onto a new phone is slim to none. And even more so since we're talking $600+ to get a phone and hold on to my data package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Vance McAlister Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 Robert Marshall surprisingly, I have asked around the office here and nobody knew that Droid had anything to do with Verizon in particular. I am in the same boat with my unlimited plan. But, with the headphone jack going out on my Nexus and some annoying restart issues (on various ROM's), I may have to spring for the full price of the phone. That is why I need to make sure I get the right one! :0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Lucas Nichols Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I just don't see a single good point to getting the moto X. Google owns moto and their own x phone doesn't even compare to the specs of normal Motorola phones. It's not like their specs were a damn secret. Me and Google obviously don't see eye to eye on anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Vance McAlister Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Lucas Nichols what they say is that the tech built in offsets the spec difference and that performance is actually as good or better. I will have to see whether that is true of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
