Hands On with the New Moto X
disappointing
As I type this from my original moto x I'm saddened to learn Motorola sold out to "bigger".
On the plus side I am glad that they give the option to be done with that annoying " OK Google Now" phrase....I have not used that great voice control feature because of that.
Not sure what the complaint was with the original camera but I thought it was great. I think the twist to activate feature could have activated more quickly but the pics were good.
And to say the original X felt cheap doesn't make sense...I chose it over the LG and Galaxy line because it felt more solid and quality built.
I'll still be getting the new X if it comes to Sprint

I didn't think it felt cheap, but Motorola said that's some of the feedback they received from consumers.
The original camera was kind of lousy- it was super grainy and had really terrible white balance.
That said, the original X was a terrific phone (if sadly unreliable.)

I'm with you, Joel. Very disappointing that Motorola went with the ultra big size. Everyone's running to those bigger sizes, and although I understand that there is where they probably make the most profit, it's still a shame that Motorola should not ...

Dimple
Is the dimple on the back as deep as it looks in the pics?
On the original X it's such a great thought and position, not intrusive and perfect function

It's pretty big.
It's technically only 0.8mm deep, but it feels like a bottomless pit to my finger.
I prefer the dimple, too, but I think you'd get used to the new "pit" pretty quickly. I can't think of any good reason it should be a deal-break...

thanks for the additional pics... .low light shots are not great. Looks like the zoom pics were hit and miss

Ear piece volume?
My biggest complaint with the original X is the ear piece volume. I cannot get it loud enough to hear clearly in most situations and I have to use the speaker phone. It gets frustrating
Have you had a chance to test the volume? If so, how does it compare to the original?
