Well, i don't live in the US so i only know Droid X from it's name... but i think it's very popular and when Google made the Android progress Video, it was the Droid X which made Android DOUBLE its popularity in no time...
i don't know about the Droid X much but that's what i think i might be wrong though
this kind of stuff just starts rumours
nexus 3
tablet=no
phone=no
nexus 3 exist?=no
will there be a nexus tablet in future?=yes(already confirmed by google[rumored to be LG device )
will there be a next nexus phone? yes ofc.
but it will never be like one 2,3 anymore.
the HTC nexus was the only numeric version.and will stay
unless its referred to DEV phone(yes nexus S is not a DEV phone)
the continuer of the nexus line will stay(as it was in the beginning)
in this order."nexus-" "any brand/style name w/e"
Lettery.....lol someone was high on google kool aid and forgot to spell check

I hit my back button on my ns once I read that part.
LOL nice article, but not really reliable, is it?
that guy just counts one and one together and tries to predict the next nexus?!
N1 had a 3.7" display, NS a 4.0", so the next one will get a 4.3"?!?! of course it's that simple!!!
so, whatever the next google phone will be, this article is of absolutely no value!
and even if it's not official, the motorola xoom is the first google-tablet. it is the reference product for honeycomb, runs stock android...so what else?
nah, i'm not gonna pay any mind to that. sure i wouldn't doubt a tegra 3, but he's just predicting the specs based off only TWO nexus models. 4.3" screen would be a good prediction as it's common these days, but to base it off the fact the n1 was 3.7, ns 4.0, is pretty lame.
Also, if google IS going to go with another manufacturer, i would bet LG before sony ericsson.
The only thing I will say is nexus 3 with tegra3 chip will be here in December and it seems LG is making it.

That's speculation. There was nothing flagship about the Droid X. Yes, the Droid X sold a lot of units. I think the original Droid was what skyrocketed Android into the market, though. Nothing flagship about either one though.

From what I have seen, there is no proof the mystery device is the Nexus 3. It does not have any indication of being of the Nexus line at all.

This is the correct name, not the X. It is a locked down & bloated POS.
The Flagship for Android has been the Droid Series due to the original Droid commercials. But after the original came out they went downhill locking bootloaders and giving the finger to Dev's.
I would personally like to think the G1 was a flagship, it sure turned me on as soon as it was unveiled.
IMO I think the Nexus tablet will have Tegra 3, and the Nexus 3 will have a second gen dual core processor!!
would love to see one
that may have been the us flagship but not world wide because they arnt nearly as big over seas

Pretty awesome considering it isn't running froyo...
Gota love that GPU.
It is nuts how bad the EVO tested. It would be interesting if they included the Incredible.
So.. I was pretty sure about wanting this... but some are saying to wait a month or two...... what is your guy's consensus on the subject?

Always wait a couple months and they'll be something better.
true... I just suppose if it something like front facing camera or some other feature I would never use is worth the wait for some.. I might as well just bite the bullet I think...
Ok, so as far as processors and GPUs go, do I have this right?
Samsung Galaxy S/iPhone4 > Droid X/2 > Evo/Incredible/HD2
Droid X is at least on par with iPhone 4 from what I've seen. Hard to compare the two since they run on a different OS.

I think we need to look at features that are actaul PHONE features.. not just which has more apps or a higher resolution.... which is actually better faster at making phone calls and has more capabilities that involve phone activities...
Sure they are much more than phones.. but we live in an advanced day now and we should not have to worry about how we hold a phone to get reception n things of such...
I myself think the PHONE parts ot the iphone suck, however I do think it is a cool device in some instances, so I bought an ipod touch and jailbroke it just for fun...
Hmmm.. the X is so tempting!!!
After I saw this video I became confused. So, the Nexus One is outdated for now? Is it worth buying the Nexus One now?

Obviously the Nexus one, Desire and Incredible are snapdragon, the Galaxy(jEPIC, Captivate, Vibrant and Verizons version) is the Hummingbird and the Droid Shadow(Droid X) is the OMAP and they are all clocked at 1 GHz.

The more high powered great Android phones out there is a good thing. Let's not bash the Droid X but welcome it to the family. There is a reason there are 160k android activations per day and it's because Android gives people choice. Choice of carrier, choice of form factor, choice of manufacturer.

SO TRUE!! ANDROID FTW!!! ( as oppose to evo or x )
I want the panorama assist.
Someone should pull that from the X, and port it to the Evo.
Or even better make a port of Sweep, it's a lot better than motorola's program.
You'll never truly enjoy the great phone in your hands if you spend time comparing it to everything else. The Evo has great specs, a great look, 4G, and an unbelievable dev community. If there's a way to boost our graphics, they will make it happen.
Even now, I thoroughly enjoy using my phone. It handles everything I do very well. It's the best experience I've had with a phone. Easily. Bigger and better is always around the corner, but I see myself hanging onto this phone for a long time.

here is a post from BGR showing flash on the droid X
http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2010/07/06/adobe-flash-droidx/
I think the Droid X looks like a great phone but I'm really in love with my EVO and wouldn't trade it for the world (or at least until HTC releases the follow-up possibly this Christmas). And spec-wise the EVO still kind of has the DX beat (as well as beauty).
I really love the Droid series though. I appreciate everything Verizon has done with the lineup and Android as a whole owes a lot to the Droid series for putting Android phones on the map. Their marketing is simply badassery! It makes me proud to see that it never fails that every time a Droid commercial comes on, everybody in the room pauses to watch. They really give Apple some fierce competition.

Whatever it takes to make yourself feel better about your purchase...
I was bit by the shiny new toy bug when I first heard about the Droid X but it didn't take long to go away LOL I really like the EVO alot better, It looks nicer, is smaller and has a way better UI than the Droid X not to mention we will have Froyo long before Motorola releases it
Maybe you'll have froyo long before the driod x, but don't count on it. Motorola is very quick about their os updates.
I don't know. After seeing what the XDA developer community can do with phones, I find it hard to stray to a brand other than HTC. I wish the dev community got a cut of my phone purchases, because their work entices me more than HTC ever has.

Galaxy S isn't on Verizon. The variant the fascinate is. Being a former fascinate owner stick with the X. Even with the voodoo lagfix Droid x is far more stable. Sure the super amoled is nice as well a better gaming performance, but it's not worth the lag and hiccups from the fascinate.
If you want development, go with the fascinate.

no im actually quite serious
now i love android and i also hate the iphone with a bloody passion but in reality with locked bootloader on almost every new device made by the main manufactures(HTC, Motorola, and now samsung) makes it near impossible to make your phone yours and even with root access what can you really do that a jailbroken iphone cant?
i mean you dont have to use itunes and such but seriously it isnt hard to jailbreak an iphone and free it from itunes
in reality though the droid x will never be a droid 1, or a HTC Dream(G1) for that matter
EOL for the droid x is coming up and chances are that 2.3 is going to be the last OTA for the droid x and after that your stuck on 2.3 or what ever version manufactures leave you on until you buy a new device
at least the iphone will last 2 years before it stops getting updates
I picked up a DX on craigslist about a week ago to check out why people were leaving the Fascinate for it. I chose a Fascinate over the DX last fall and only regretted it until the first froyo leaks for it showed up.
In my opinion (grain of salt check) a froyoed Fascinate is a better phone than a froyoed DX. Development seems to be roughly the same in terms of quantity and the quality of development on the Fascinate feels better. My camera/camcorder works, bluetooth doesn't kill the battery, GPS is fixed.
I haven't played around yet with gingerbread (yeah, I'm waiting...) So I can't comment there. Sleigh it looks like fully functioning GB is right around the corner and there is a handicapped one out now for the Fascinate.
This is totally subjective, but the Fascinate is more comfortable to hold also. My DX is probably going to last another week before hitting "The 'bay".
Galaxy S II should be out in 1-2 months. Just wait and get that. Far better than either the Galaxy S or Droid X.
Wow I need to delete this thread because my dad is soooooooo gay and made me get a piece of **** phone. **** this is awesome.
Dx by a mile. Bigger screen, better camera, you will get manufacturer updates. Anyways, wait for the bionic or get a thunderbolt.

Although I agree with most of that as I also suggested droid X. Fasinate has a far better camera. People think more MP equals better. In this case it doesn't. Of every phone I have ever owned Fascinate has the best camera.

Costco pulling the Motorola Atrix for 'new handset coming soon'?
By Phil Nickinson 21 Jul 2011 8:24 pm
Now this is a wee bit interesting. We've gotten word that the Motorola Atrix 4G soon will be off Costco's shelves as some sort of "inventory pullback," and that "a new handset (is) coming soon." And that "coming soon" date appears to be as early as Sunday, July 24. What might that new handset be? An Atrix inventory replenishment? Some sort of tweaked Atrix? Something completely different? News at 11.
http://www.androidcentral.com/costc...entral+(Android+Central)&utm_content=FaceBook
That's interesting. Maybe it's an Atrix with AT&T's LTE. If it's a different phone, it could be the Defy+ thats rumored to be on AT&T.

Quote above is from the comments on the linked website. It seems logical.
Atrix Discontinued
I just took my Fiance to go pick up a new phone since her contract just expired, and we were planning on getting her a Motorola Atrix 4G (like mine), but as soon as we got there, the people informed us Moto/ATT are recalling/pulling the Atrix because it didn't do as well as they originally planned. The replacement for them was a Samsung Inspire 4G (which is actually a nice looking phone and runs pretty smoothly).
Depending IF Motorola holds up to their words with the bootloader unlocking this year, I may be moving away from Motorola after this phone. It's a shame because I like their hardware/look a lot.
Just thought I'd share that with you all.

Yep me to, I went from Nexus to Atrix, and never realised how much I was going to lose (even without considering bootloader unlock or root, though having said that it looks much easier/mature process than on vanilla Nexus). SIP is the main case in point for me, even SGS2 fanboys are moaning about it so we're not alone in that regard. Still I'm seeing numerous minor glitches here and there, nothing show stopping or heart attack inducing but still noticeably glitchier (even comparing froyo to froyo).
However if it is as rumoured a 4.5" screen monstrosity then no thanks

Yep similar sentiments, though 4"is now my preferred FF after using atrix.
If the SGS2 was 4" and not so light and plasticky I would have jumped on it in a heartbeat. I had my heart set on it until I actually played with it in person and thought why am I paying 750+AUD for something that feels like a big toy (despite how nice the internals are). For me atrix form factor and hardware is fantastic, and now software is being rectified (whereas hardware, well you're kinda stuck with it lol).

Have you seen Costco's selection, though? I know in the stores near my place they only have like 3 phones from each carrier. I don't think this will affect the long-term viability of the Atrix, there's just a newer phone out that they are going to sell.
http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/22/droid-bionics-secrecy-betrayed-on-amazon-by-simple-dock-listin/
Anyone seen this? Droid Bionic is 4,5" AWSOMELY ENORMOUS screen, with similar docks (he has the HD dock, for example).
If it comes with a multitouch lapdock Im gonna go on a motorola killing spree until they give me one :|
and why? I like the simple design, hopefully this 4.7" screen will be more readable than the htc one 4.7" screen. I'm thinking so? But if I get the device I'll be coming from an sgs4. Kinda tired of touchjizz and always had a softspot for motorola, and miss my nexus 4 experience minus the horrible battery life. I hope we can unlock the bootloader on this device with no issues :0
I'm using an SGS4 as well and have always loved Moto handsets. I'm sure the Moto X is going to be great. Nothing beats Moto radios...

That would be great, the question is when? And why would they not release at the same time as carriers. I mean I'm guessing they dont want to interfere with carrier sales but that can also backfire as people can just wait for the google version? More choices for different types of users.
I'm sorta making a lateral move. I am going from the Galaxy Nexus to the to the Moto X. It isn't really a major spec bump if I remember all the specs correctly.

Currently have the SGS3. Not really wanting a new phone, but wife needs one and has an upgrade, so she's taking this and I get a new one!
I thought I would be a shoe in for the SGS4, but the X has really intrigued me. That and I just end up running CM 10.X on the galaxy, so why not start out with a stockish experience? I do enjoy ROMing and modding, so not sure how that will work out if I get it thru Verizon on contract. If unlocking the bootloader is definitely a no-go, then I could wait for developer edition. Not sure what I'll do.

This is such an annoying thing to read over and over.
The iPhone STILL has a class leading GPU and a year ago it's processor was EXCELLENT. Apple doesn't skimp on specs. They use less ram sometimes, but that's about it.

The iPhone STILL has a class leading GPU and a year ago it's processor was EXCELLENT. Apple doesn't skimp on specs. They use less ram sometimes, but that's about it.

Its CPU is nothing to write home about. The dual core swift is about on par with the MSM8960 krait CPU. I doubt that the A7 CPU will surpass the SD800, but the OS is less demanding and the GPU will be awesome, although Samsung is starting to use imagination technologies GPUs again, which is good.

Based on all the reviews I have read, there hasn't been anything you would normally do with a phone that the MotoX cannot do and is very responsive. That's all you really can ask for. The Adreno 320 GPU is the same as what's in the htc one and sgs4, so gaming isn't an issue either.

As long as its staying as close to vanilla as possible sprinkled with a few moto x goodies, it should be smooth. I hardly game on my devices. I'm looking forward to this, not expecting to be wow'ed. I was going to wait for the nexus 5, but lg again? I'm not the biggest lg fan.

I'm using an SGS4 as well and have always loved Moto handsets. I'm sure the Moto X is going to be great. Nothing beats Moto radios...
The bootloader is supposed to be unlockable on the Google Store variant, which is what I'm gunning for...

My Verizon GS3 (Owned 2) wireless radio > RAZR Maxx + Razr HD. Better Wi-Fi range & connection as well.
To answer the thread, no. I will not be getting the Moto X. Development has always been weak for Motorola phones. I've owned 2 stated above. My wife use to own the Motorola Photon on Sprint. I know Motorola phones well enough lol. Not blaming developers. It's Motorola's security and locking everything down. Plus I don't like Motorola's camera quality for pictures and videos.
I'm now waiting to see what the next gen Nexus will bring. After owning a Nexus 7 (2013), I enjoy it too much I now want that experience on my phone also. Still love my S3 but when my contract is up, time to move on.

Locked down? Not the google edition or dev edtion. Thats what I'm waiting for. Also from what I understand this motorola device will not be like any of its previous "droid" "razr" devices and amen for that.
