Maybe you and I wouldn't but people who realize they've spent $1000 when they shouldn't have because they don't need what $1000 phones pack would.

*$930

BTW, the MSRP of the advertised device is $800 and the mod is another $300, so, price definitely ain't a reason to go for the Moto Z...

Where I am, the Note 8 costs $1,104. Don't act like the Note 8 isn't a $1000 phone. Unlocked on Verizon for its lowest tier in the US - $960. Add taxes and fees. It's $1000.

To even think that you aren't spending $1000 because you're 70 bucks shy is worrisome.

Regardless, it's a Motorola. I was a diehard Motorola user until their upgrades in what was important in a phone weren't good enough for me. It's still the same. They're just trying to stay relevant.

Moto Z2 Force is $500 on T-Mobile...

I upgraded from the Galaxy S3 to the Droid Maxx, and it was an upgrade in every possible way.

True. However you went from a 2012 phone too a 2013 device. Now if you said from an S4 to a Droid Maxx then S4>Droid Maxx.

First, he never said it had to be the same year, only upgrading. Second, the S4 was not very dissimilar from the S3. If anything an iterative model, and I heard many of the same issues I had with the S3 being reported by people on the S4 forums at the time, which is why I went a different way for my next phone.

I know a lot of people like Samsung, but I don't. It took me owning one to come to that conclusion, but I just don't like them. I'm not saying anyone else should feel the same way, that's just my opinion for me. So I'm sorry but no, the S4 isn't greater the the Droid Maxx, for me. You may feel that way, and that's fine. But you're not me, so please don't try and tell me how I should think.

I would take that bezel abomination more than the misplaced back fps monster.

That's dumb logic.

Lmao! What was Motorola thinking coming into this conversation?! They are way out of their league here. Funny though, will give them that. Upgrade from a Note 8 to Motorola + mods, when it doesn't even come close to the Note 8 feature to feature? It appears Motorola didn't understand the point of the "Growing Up" ad at all.

Apple is going to win not by volume but gross margin that's equivalent to probably few hundred of Samsung latest and greatest model. Samsung is going to outsell apple because its phone is cheaper and offer more bang for the buck. Otherwise, why do you think apple is not the top seller in the world? You read anywhere that clearly say that and with data to support? I'm a iPhone user but only for older model because of the build quality and feel safer with the OS but doesn't think it justify with the $1k price or even anywhere above $500 for a phone. In term of spare part, no doubt iphone has an upperhand. Dismantling it is much easier than almost all android phones with some exception like Huawei P9 and Mi5. Samsung is almost impossible, not without breaking the part. You basically can find apple spare-part almost everywhere and that make longevity not a concern. If Samsung can achieve that it could go a long way.

If u look at sales figures and market share I am really not sure what you are talking about.
