Expires on 12/24. I'm a G2 user, but I signed up to get some codes because my brother wanted a Moto X and missed out on both opportunities, so I was going to give atleast one to him, but then he ended up getting one himself.
I was going to get one and just try to turn around and sell it for atleast a $100 profit, but even on swappa, they really aren't going for retail even when unopened..plus I'm sort of lazy to have to go through with all of that crap.
I don't see it as being anywhere near as good as my G2, or even my S4, so I figured I'd give the two codes away to my XDA brethren!
first two replies will get the codes
give me love
me me me me plz!!!
I'll take it plz

We have another line that's a droid razr maxx. Debating on upgrading.
Is the 32gb version not available on verizon? I swear I saw it being available but a recent chat with a rep proves otherwise.
Also with my code if it's for 50% off why would the 2 year price be $29.99? Isn't half off 49.99 closer to $25? Still with the $30 upgrade fee $60 plus tax not a bad price.
The rep online wouldn't do an alternate upgrade so guess I'll have to get to a corporate store before the 24th when my code expires.
I'm almost considering just using verizon30 again on another droid maxx and doing the MOTOJB100 trade up.

my brother had the razr maxx and he's going to the X now. honestly, i'm not sure of verizon's pricing, but on the moto maker website, it shows it as 99 dollars with contract..so 50% off would make it 50.

Moto X wood backs are now a much more affordable option ($25) for those who want to go natural.
4 available options:
- Bamboo
- Ebony
- Teak
- Walnut
:drools:
Great deal... I bought the bamboo back last week, but Moto already sent me $75 coupon for accessories in the morning. I would have loved to pay less than getting the coupon but better than returning, buying and waiting.

If you contact them, they'll convert the coupon to a Visa gift card.
The ebony back looks amazing, but I don't think I can justify selling my used phone just to buy a replacement (wood-backed) phone
For $25 I would've bought the bamboo back. Instead, I didn't see paying $100 for the back, and I ended up buying just a white. With all these price adjustments i don't know if I were better off just buying the Nexus 5 and waiting until the next $150 off coupon...
yes finally
i will order 32 gb,bamboo back,white front and blue mettalic accents.
now i can have good deal
I'm surprised that for the people who bought the $100 bamboo back, Motorola sent an email with a $75 dollar coupon code towards any accessories order on their website to make up for the price adjustment. I'm really happy about how Googlerola is handling things like this. Looks like I'm going shopping :victory:
I wonder how long the price for the backings will stay at $25. I'd hope for a couple weeks as I really like the bamboo back but don't really have all that much to spend right now.

What do you mean.. It's a permanent price drop. I think the unlocked price will stay at this until the next version of moto x. Don't know about the useless carrier versions , since they keep running crappy promotions which locks people into 2 years and people fall for it.

If it's permanent, that's great to hear. I'm just a bit cautious in that it may be a promotional price to encourage the purchase of the new wood backs. The bamboo backing is what I have my eye on and I'll be sure to start saving especially now that I can save $75.

They gave back (automatically) $75 to people who recently bought the bamboo back, so it definitely speaks for a permanent price change.
This ticks me off. I ordered mine the 20th dec and got between the campaigns (skip, chromecast, 100usd pricedrop) and now they lowered the wooden backs by 75usd which I payed a 100 for?!
If I bought the phone in the "right moment" I could have it for 175 less.
**** you motorola and your pricedrops.
It's not even in my hands yet. I will get it on wednesday.

I haven't got anything from motorola (and where does it appear? On my motorola account which I ordered the phone from?).
I chatted with them about the campaigns and that was a dead end.
Do I need to call them? I live in Sweden so it's a bit complicated.

I just bought mine today . I already had to cancel the order and then re-order it the next day because Motorola screwed something up . They gave me a free case and $50 off to make up for it.
If I have to cancel and order this phone for a third efffing time just to save the other $50 I'm going to be super pissed.
Nice! Its on my birthday and I been debating on nexus 5 or motox and since the motox is now cheaper this is my own birthday present! Not sure if it would also work on that 50 off discount someone posted awhile ago hmmm...

For the "limited time" Cyber Monday and Wednesday offer, Moto was NOT refunding the difference if you purchased your X "recently", even if it was during the return period.
There was a thread here on XDA where multiple users posted that when they contacted Moto about a price adjustment due to having recently purchased the X, they were instructed they would have to do a return/repurchase type thing... (Or just purchase one at the "limited promo price" and return the originally purchased one due to how long the RMA and credit process takes).
Since Motorola Mobility also replied in the comments to that post "It will be promo codes like the holiday sale. You will need to register on Motorola.com and the code will be emailed to you." I expect this will be the same.
$350 for a developer edition is very tempting.
Damn, Motorola isn't playing nicely. Just shows how they jacked up the release price. The $599 phone can be had for $299 now. Shameless Motorola, no respect for early adopters.

I assumed this was for the regular version only. If the dev edition gets $100 off though, that'd be nice, but it won't be $300.
The phone is 5 months old. Do you expect the price to stay the same forever?

Forgot the dev edition was 32gb only, so $350. But it is included: https://twitter.com/Motorola/status/426869667290820608
So I'm gonna be in the market for a new phone in a few weeks. I'm gonna miss this price drop. But would you say the moto x is still a viable option. I'm torn between this and the n5. But I like this phones feature better and I do lots of driving and I don't want always have to touch my phone while driving. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

It's in stock but only available for In-Store pickup, and only 32gb version.
I ordered the red 32gig yesterday from Bestbuy with free shipping. It should be here by 11/13. I'll try my old sim (maybe with some trimming) but I don't have high hopes of keeping my unlimited data.
I wonder when Amazon will get it?
Anyone that has Amex, or Amex serve (maybe from softcard), can get $25 off $250 by tweeting #amexbestbuy
You could possibly use a movers coupon or something else to lower the price by ten percent. Shave off additional percentage by buying gift cards...

Please do update/ slickdeals thread?
Now with the Nexus 6 on Verizon officially and VoLTE working on it, anyone else tempted by the Nexus 6? I really miss the time I had my Galaxy Nexus on Verizon. It was nice not having to wait for root or a BL unlock and tons of ROMs to choose from. Since that phone I seem to bounce from phone to phone never happy with what I have. So here I am with the Turbo looking at another phone after 6 months. The size and battery are the biggest factors that have me hesitating. Had the Note 2 once and ended up not liking the size. But since then I have gotten used to 4.3->5-5.1-5.2 screen sizes. So I wonder if I would just used to it. Even with root in sight (but no indication of the software version required) and 5.1 coming soon, I stil feel pulled to the Nexus and its no hassle tinkering.
The size makes me hesitate, as well as the battery as you've stated. For the openness I really think I'm gonna make the jump. Try and get a Nexus 6 and sell my Turbo.

The most amazing thing to me is how quickly my N6 stopped feeling big and how quickly my Moto X 2014 started feeling small.
I don't have a holster yet for my N6, but when I do and try to wear it while I am out and about, I am guessing it will start feeling big to me again. And I don't see how I am going to use it while jogging. We shall see.
Too big, two cents.
I'm stuck only because the money required to switch is prohibitive. Aside from that, someone once said (I think it was adrenalyne) to vote with your wallet. Vote unlocked BL from the box. N6.

I got 500 for my turbo on swappa. What's a n6 cost? 550 I think? I dunno, could almost be an even trade. Or a small "upgrade" fee lol. I'm jumping ship to the s6. I know I know lol. N6 is to big for me. Besides battery that s6 is perfect to me! Thus far at least..my mind could change from now till then
I really don't know about the size. Yeah I have had the one 2 and 3. I really did enjoy the screen real estate. I just feel like the screen on the N6 is way too big. If BL unlock doesn't end up happening I will more than likely jump ship and get the Nexus 6 or Seygus V2(pending VZW's certification lol.)

OK so if you don't have access to someone who can bill their personal shipping costs to their work, lol! then you would have netted about $460 with shipping costs/insurance. And that doesn't include what you paid for the Droid Turbo. How much did you pay for the DT with sales tax and upgrade fee?

OK for those who don't have your wife to help them shop, lol!, they probably paid at least $200 + sales tax + upgrade fee for the 64GB, so about $255 or so depending on where you live. Deduct that from the $460 and you have $205 net profit. If the 64GB N6 is $745 with tax, that ends up being $540 OOP, which is a lot for many people.
