2nd gen Moto E, have a look..
key features:
1) Moto voice seems to be pre-installed...see the video...when he will swipe the app drawer take a closer look at top right area of 2nd page.(See pic1)
2) it looks like Motorola came up with a way to utilize Moto Display on the 2nd Generation Moto E without an AMOLED screen - probably similar to how Peek works things (see pic2)
Hopefully, motorola ports these features to motoE gen1 , as there are no hardware changes in both the phones...if no...xda will come up with them very soon !

Update 2-61-15:
1) it does not have moto voice ..its just a moto assist.
2) there is active display that wakes upon moving the device same as moto x (same. no difference)
3) double flip the device to open camera...again flip once (shake) once to have front camera...

Motorola added a gyroscope to the 4G version so you can take Photospheres with the Google Camera app.

For me it's all about photosphere. It's a really cool feature.
I sold my regular Moto G to get a 4g LTE version...

That works on my Nexus 4, but I really don't find it useful. It's like 360 degree panorama (crappy one...)
Oh well, that's what I think of it. If you find it useful, then have fun with it
Guess this explains why the LTE comes with Spotlight Player installed as a system app :cyclops:

Not only gyro is used by camera, it is also used by many apps (this includes peek from paranoid android)

The launch price is £149, but in the UK, it's being quoted as £10 more for £159. Considering you can now get the moto g for £100 quite easily (I got it for £78 with vouchers etc), its still a fantastic deal, so don't feel left out . As ever, you get what you pay for.

My friend asked me for an entry level android phone recommendation; I think I am going to tell him to grab this 4g one. Now with the gyroscope, very cool. High end features in a cheap device. Seems like a solid android device. I have an N5 myself, which I really like, but this phone seems pretty good. You guys like it?

No doubt about it, the 4G sounds great. The 3G one will also drop and remains a bargain

Hi everybody,
I recently (three weeks ago) had a new Moto G. My first one was bought in December 2013 (release month).
My new one was build in August 2014.
I notice a few critical changes I wanted to share you.

Yes. Otherwise I don't see the point of this tread. I think most who might be interested in your findings would like to see what it actually is you discovered in the event their device needs replaced. I had a bad vibrate motor which was replaced with a new unit and the only side by side difference was the screen was a warmer hue on the new device.

I know but what are the differences?
We all knew it was coming, but it looks like Motorola has finally officially changed hands from Google to Lenovo. I went to their site this morning and got a new flash animation site entry trailer that said Motorola a Lenovo Company. The 2014 X was certainly a product of the Google era, it will be interesting to see which way it goes now.
As long as they don't screw with quick updates and the performance of these phones, I don't care.
Well i ordered my moto x yesterday through motomaker. It already has been assembled and is now shipping from shenzen. I have to say i am living in Germany
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
Shouldn't really change much for these devices, Google is still in the works with Motorola due to the Nexus 6. So in terms of "3rd parties" outside of Google, Moto should be getting the updates for L out the quickest (helped by their stock approach as well).
It's still A "Motorola" phone. Parent company changing doesn't suddenly change that.

Motorola - An iconic brand with it's own character.
What I want and expect is it remains Motorola forever. I bought my last Moto when company was dying, it was an Atrix 2 which is still my primary and only phone I have been using since more than 2.5 years. That time I though it may turn out my last Moto. But I am feeling so glad and lucky that company bounced back so strongly and today I have few great choices as my upgrade options. :good:
Though would have liked to see ownership of the company would have remained in the hands of Motorola itself or atleast in hands of Google.

Moto g lollipop will not be soon as expected i think bcoz just for the sake of differentiating the handsets a bit. But never know
I think no XDA dev could port it as fast as moto is doing their update release job.
Just wait!
Guys please just be a little patient. Lollipop is coming. Yes, I am excited too but Lollipop is on the way. Motorola/Lenovo is not playing around with this update. It will be here before you know it.
Hahaha... One Lollipop thread is chasing another Lollipop thread...
It's gettin' a bit pathetic ;D
If Motorola confirmed this update, then wait. You should be happy that there will be an update. It would be worse if there wasn't any.

LOL, truth is unless something truly game changing comes out of Android my next phone will be an iPhone, which is something I never thought I would say. I paused that thought when the Nexus 6 price dropped and bought one off of Amazon but couldn't bring myself to open the box and returned it. I figure if I truly hate the 6s I can easily sell it and recoup most of my money something I can't easily do with an Android phone.
i have a nexus 5x preordered. 32gb quarz color. i might miss the moto stuff but whatever, its about time i guess.
In hindsight if I had known, how much trouble the upgrade to lollipop would cause (all file permissions where messed up and fixing them was a pain in the ***), I wouldn't do it again. I already forgot, what noticeable improvements came with lollipop. Wasn't my phone a little smoother? Can't remember.
Bottom line: i don't care for any updates anymore.

Oh good grief! Motorola hasn't come out and said that Marshmallow wouldn't be out for the XT1060 have they? I know it's not on the list right now but I wouldn't say that they broke their promise until we see something definite that Marshmallow will not come out for our phones.
If this is the biggest thing you all have to worry about, I guess you have it pretty good. Personally, I like the Lollipop on the XT1060 for the most part and am willing to stay with this phone until I find something else that I like better.
