HTC One X to Moto X - The king is dead, long live the king!

I know. I just really prefer physical storage.

Just keep in mind the cloud when think about storage. None of your photos or videos need to be stored on your phone. I have over 8000 photos, hundreds of videos, and hundreds of songs on my google account. My 32gig phone still has 20 gigs of free space..

You can do it through Verizon. You set up everything with them and Motorola gives you a pin to complete transaction. I'd imagine there is similar process with AT&T.

I'm still undecided between HTC or moto x; the storage is my hang up now. HTC 160GB vs motos 32GB. The additional memory being removable which I really prefer. If anything happens to the phone most of your media is saved. If I do move forward with the moto x I'll likely get the black walnut finish.

I think that's available through moto direct only. Pretty sure he bought through att.

Scrum, did you use moto maker to customize your phone?

Speaking of TV remotes, phones still use IR sensors? It would seem much easier to use your home wifi to send a signal to your TV or cable box to switch the channel. Aren't there apps that do that? I know that when I had a Comcast DVR, I could change channels, program the DVR, etc. over the net, not with IR.

Well it is more than just for TV. I have my DVD players setup to work with it, the TV at work, parents house etc. It even works with ceiling fans. Basically anything that uses an ir remote. Master control at the fingertips.

Yep, first thing I did.. :)

It says no updates at this time. I know Verizon has pushed the Lollipop upgrade to their customers, so hopefully AT&T isn't too far behind.

[Bouncer]

Did you check to see if there is an update though? Settings > About phone > system updates

[Scrumhalf]

BTW, why do you still not have lollipop? Thats kit kat in your screenshot.

Mine is not an unbranded phone like yours bro.. mine is through AT&T, so although there is very little bloatware put on the phone either by AT&T or Motorola, I am still going to wait for AT&T to push the update. I want to make sure all the testing has been done on an AT&T branded phone. Last thing I want is for some obscure firmware issue to pop up.

Right here!

Screenshot....

Bouncer, where was that screenshot thread? Looked for it but couldn't find it.

[blm]

Valid points.

The M8 is a good half inch longer than the X but has a smaller screen, because of the amount of room taken up by the speakers. The speakers are definitely one of the highlights of the phone and a lot of people love it, but I never put the phone on speaker mode and to me, it's just wasted real estate.

Ergonomics. Fits the hand perfectly.
