i think google has made it clear that vzw isnt worthy of the pure google experience. they are far too motivated to cram bloatware onto their handsets.

i plan on leaving vzw to get this phone (hopefully).

Then why Verizon and Sprint have the GALAXY NEXUS should be on every carrier. if they will RELEASE IT ON ALL CARRIERS it would drive the sales up and everyone can get a pure GOOGLE PHONE EXPERIENCE

I think Google has shown it wants to focus on selling devices unsubsidized. Now, there is always a possibility that a carrier will get the device but I wouldn't say it will ONLY be available on Verizon.

Who knows? By then we could be looking at Google-Dish Wireless.

Motorola radio, build quality, and quick updates if its indeed a Nexus phone will probably make tech geeks counting the days until Google I/O.

That is exactly what I'm looking forward too... Just hope Verizon keeps their grubby little paws off of it.
Because of Verizon's control freak nature though, I wouldn't be surprised to see it on a different carrier instead.
But, I can dream of a stock Android OS, Moto built phone, free of bloatware from Big Red can't I?

You see that everytime you reboot a nexus phone ... by the time HTC really decides to sue google who knows HTC would be struggling to survive :)

No, I don't think so. But if it had an "i", moto should see lawsuits coming.

The Motorola Droid X came out in 2010 when HTC had the Evo, Inspire, Droid Incredible & whatever they had on T-Mobile. 2011 the X2 was out while HTC had the Evo 3D, Vivid, Thunderbolt &, again, whatever they had on T-Moble. HTC sueing Motorola over the letter X (which will most likely NOT be in the name of this phone), doubtful.

well we on Verizon hope that they get it but uphold with Nexus tradition. it'll be sad if we don't get it because since we've been getting the best Moto has to offer we'll really know what we're missing.

'The X' sounds better...i mean without the 'phone'.
Nexus X doesn't sound bad too.

21. kidtronic posted on 21 Dec 2012, 17:11 1 0

They're obviously not going to call it 'X Phone'. That's just the alleged project name. Don't be surprised if X is nowhere in the final release name.

28. HTCOE posted on 21 Dec 2012, 17:47 0 0

not the nexus x it will be called the neXus they'll make the "X" the ten within

Larry Page told Motorola to think big, and Motorola will concentrate on making a single phone. Maybe this is the phone that will defeat iPhone in US.

GS3 is a great and successful phone but many US consumers still prefer style over substance, Nexus X can offer both style and substance.

An offer that's hard to refuse.

U sound as if you've seen it already, but u may also b right. I recently sold my ip5, and bought the galaxy note 2. I love it, but I do miss some things about my iPhone. Maybe this can bridge them. iPhones r more stylish, android more substance... Good point.

41. Berzerk000 posted on 21 Dec 2012, 22:04 7 1

Quad core 1.7+ GHz A15 processor (maybe new custom Snapdragon S5?)

2 GB RAM

4.7-5" 1080p S-AMOLED/ColorBoost display

3,500 mAh battery

Kevlar back and water resistant

Famed Motorola antennae

It will be beautiful :)

Add to that no skin of their own to slow Android down or interfere with Pure experience. Features like Samsung. Its a sell for me. I will ditch my GN2 for it. Nah, I will keep them both.

59. iDroid8 posted on 22 Dec 2012, 08:41 0 0

Either you keep the UI and enjoy the features that come with it or you buy a nexus and root your device/get some apps that get you close

I am saying stock UI + extra features from this phone is my expectation. Like S-Pen integration and plug and play, best face etc. I, over a period of time get bored of touchwiz or sense. I guess, their UI slows down the phone, not the features.

Motorola added very few additions to the ICS UI, and I like most of them.

This just sounds like the next Gen razor.

Having owned only Moto phones since the nineties, I just recently went to the GN2. I have to say the TW stock interface I don't care for but all of the little performance enhancements they have incorporated have greatly expanded upon stock android. I actually like the user experience better. Stock Android isn't enough anymore IMHO.

As for build quality in android Moto is really hard to beat. Their radios are second to no one.

What I am trying to say I guess is that a stock looking interface with the best of user experience tweaks and motor build and radio would be great. Of course all of this without the need to root would be fantastic!

Xphone? Sounds too familiar to... Wait if I say it I'll get sued.

This actualy sounds like a phone I may considder... but Moto better not let Verizon ruin this phone ...

In that case, I'm glad I'm on Sprint!

Please tell me you are guessing. I wont ever jump ship over a phone....but damn....this is the Nexus I've been looking for...

AT&T...I might try out.

he's talking about the people commenting that Verizon shouldn't get this.

53. iDroidWin posted on 22 Dec 2012, 01:00 0 0

I think Google had to do it. So if like Amazon, Samsung decides to fork their own version of Android, Google will have someone to count on.

In fact my first phone was a Motorola phone way back in 1996.
