What are you guys' thoughts about the rumor of august 23rd the Motorola x is coming out? Straight Google on vzw (unfortunately I'm still contracted) with possibly a maxx size battery sounds sweet.
Do you think there will be enough development?
With all the hype, specs, and stock Android, there will definitely be a ton of development for it.
I hate all Motorola phones Lol. Just looked up the specs and its on dual core 1.7. Other specs don't look too thrilling
His: HTC DNA
Hers: LG Optimus G

The specs aren't all that fantastic. The last I heard it wasn't even 1080p, and dual-core anything isn't all the impressive.
But since it has stock aosp (which I never personally was that big a fan of), everyone is going to drool over it, and it'll have relatively good developer support.
There are apparently multiple tiers of them. With the highest being amazing.
S800 processor(simply the best out there)
1080p screen 5ish inch screen
Keller back with drop and water resistant
2 gigs of ram
With or without a maxx size battery.

So you can customize the processor too? I'm thinking that would split development...like this ROM is for 600 processors, ROMs won't be universal. I have an upgrade 8/29 luckily. If you can get a quad core 1.7, maxx battery. 1080p, 2gb of ram, with Google source aosp backing, I'll be all over this
Regardless of if it is moto

It isn't necessarily customizing. Just that there is a mid range phone and a high end phone.

Oh cool!
I'm either looking at this or a newer HTC around Christmas. Verizon will get the one too late...hopefully there is a ground breaking dna2. Otherwise, this is a powerhouse of a phone and I love the developers
For me it's all about specs. The moto x needs to have at least 8 cores or a much faster quad core set up.it needs to have more ram, an equal or better camera, an equal or better screen, an equal or better build quality. I have 2 small kids and taking pics on the fly is really important. I just switch from an iPhone 5 to the DNA and after using the camera for the past week I've been pleasantly surprised. I think everyone will agree that Motorola has never been known for its camera. Hopefully Google has improved this

You're confusing the X and the new Droid Ultra variants. The X has standard internals across all versions but is supposed to have an array of new and advanced sensors and custom colors. The others are the new Droid phones headed to Verizon.

According to recent leaks the ultra and the 'X phone' are very similar. Both have a mid range version, and that is what leaked quite a few months ago. Recently there have been leaks for a high end version in both line ups.

That processor doesn't actually use 8 cores. It is essentially 2 quad core processor smacked together, with only one being run at once. It is no faster than a normal quad core processor.

The idea behind octo core is battery.minimal tasks use the less powerful four. Gaming, etc, using the more powerful set. So ironically it is about battery. I agree, a new phone has to be super impressive for me to leave the DNA.

I think he is thinking of samsungs Exynos5 cpu, in reality its a dual-quad core cpu, you can only use 4 cores at any given time, like different power states low power cores and high power cores
I will get Moto X no doubts about that . The most important thing would be that - "first smartphone designed, engineered and assembled in the USA". Finally our first American made smartphone . I am tired of asian cra'
Moto X is a mid range device with custom colors
Moto Droid Ultra (regular and maxx) are your high end devices

It's been some time now since I've heard rumors of HTC upgrading their One phone with the newer Snapdragon 800 processor chip. Anyone else have anymore information on a possible release date for it?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
One X > One X+ was 8 months.
That would land the One+ in October, right there with the iPhone 5S.
Makes sense to me!
On a side note, LG G2 is being announced tomorrow. It's pretty cool looking, but we'll have to see if it implements the 800's native always listening capabilities from the start. I highly doubt it. OEMs might let Moto X be the test dummy and see if people like the always on feature.
Is the 800 the same architecture as the 600??

From the way the phone is overheating while you play games, I dont think they will be putting a faster CPU into the phone.
Maybe a faster GPU or an new gen of more efficient ARM processors
The current quad cores are already plenty fast for normal phone use.
We don't need s800 imo.. s600 is fast enough for me. But i wouldn't mind Adreno 330 gpu.
The One Max is not an upgrade over the One. I hope everyone realizes this. It will be very difficult to handle and heavier.

New GPU and LPDDR3 would be a nice bump in performance.
Screw both CPU and GPU, better battery tech FFS.
We didn't need 1080p screens and mobile SoCs that are coming close to mid 2000's laptop power.
But it's hell asking for a phone to have two days standby time with heavy usage (6+ hours screen on) without wifi.

I think the spec madness has to stop.
Always listening should become a standard from now on. I read from Blinkfeed that the 800 has native support for it.
We also need better battery life. The G2, a next gen phone, has a 3000 mAh battery. We'll see if that'll be enough.
There is research being conducted to incorporate Silicon anodes in Li-ion batteries. I'm looking forward to that.
Another thing is heat dissipation. These things are more powerful than a laptop from the early 2000's. How can mfgs expect these to run at their full potential with no heat dissipation? Currently, the only solution provided is to throttle the CPU severely. The One has a metal backplate, which thankfully acts as a huge heatsink. However, it's not enough. Just 10 mins of 3D gameplay or browsing and the frame rate drops to rock bottom. Kinda defeats the purpose of having such a powerful processor.
Are any mfgs even trying to address the heat issues?

Subtleties, my good man.
I never said I wanted a new One right now. That would be nice, but it isn't necessary.
And I didn't say I wanted an S800, I simply said that the next generation of devices should implement the native always listening feature. And the 800 makes several significant improvements.
http://m.techradar.com/news/computi...mm-processor-will-always-be-listening-1132647
And believe it or not your precious phone (and mine) will be outdated in a matter of months. A new genreation of devices seems to release every 6 months or so!
I was commenting on a disturbing trend the Android smartphone market is exhibiting: an obsession with theoretical values and inflated numbers. While these do help to some degree, there needs to be some kind of innovation, or else we'll all end up in a very uncomfortable situation.

Are you unlocked? With ElementalX kernel, you have custom thermal throttling that does not affect gaming performance. My phone never throttles and the battery stays below 50 degrees. HTC's throttling was way too agressive. You can play a 3D game for an hour with no slowdown. Plus, the kernel improves battery life.
I cant stand the stock kernel any more after trying others.
I remember my boyfriend buying the LG Optimus 2x when it was released. It was the first Android phone with dual core and - if you took a look on the hardware - very, very promising compared to other androids. Yeah... Theory. It was laggy. It lagged so much, even my HTC Desire was faster and smoother.
I'm really curious what the new LG G2 will act like, but my expectations are extremely low

Well, as I currently have the nexus 4 I was expecting to be getting the nexus 6. However as the leaks suggest the fact that it would have 2K display and have 13mp camera that's all perfect. But it would have the snapdragon 805 which is around 2.7ghz quad core (which is just a speed bump from current flagships that have 801). The only thing it will have is a much powerful GPU which is adreno 420. But in January they will release the Snapdragon 810 which compared to 805 its a beast has a new processor architecture 20nm and would be OctoCore, 64 bit and the ram would be as twice as fast and so many more features. Because this would make the nexus 6 be outdated quickly. So thinking in that way would be a good option to get the nexus 6 or not ? What do you guys think?

First thing, there is always something better round the corner, so when this new chip comes out, there will be an even better one planned for 6 months time. Second, apart from the kick of having the best hardware, would you necessarily be using it?
I say that since the N4 doesn't have 4G (apart from the modem hacks which aren't valid for Europe, where I am). I don't miss it, since I don't have a need for ultra-fast data transmission on my phone.
If you really need/expect to use the possibilities that the hardware enables, if I were you, I would wait until a terminal is equipped with it. If it's not critical, I'd go for either the N6 or an equivalent hi-end Xiaomi or Oppo.

even if the hardware becomes outdated its still going to be strong enough for pretty much anything for couple of years but again If they put **** to mediocre battery life as usual then no thanks
Well it's the "perfect" useless 2K screen that's gonna eat up the battery. I hate QHD on 5-inchers.
You have good valid points but normally Qualcomm have updated their chips at a good rate and considering the fact on estimate around 4 months after the Nexus 6 release the chip would be a big difference in performance in every way and looking at their site. It will also have pretty cool featues

Yeah, I know...
It's been a while since Motorola made a phone with a removable battery, and it's been a while since we've seen a Nexus with one.
My next phone, as soon as I can afford one, will most likely be a Sony Z3 Compact (although I might pick up a second Nexus 4 first). I love using big screens, but I hate carrying one. Months ago I was hoping to pick up a Z1 Compact and a OnePlus One. But life happened, and I can't afford those anymore, and even if I could, the Z3 is out soon, and the OPO...well...'nuff said. I still like the idea of having a smaller phone for daily life, then swapping the SIM to a phablet for gaming at home or reading eBooks. The Nexus 6 or S or whatever they end up calling it might just fill that spot if the price isn't absurd, but that'll probably have to wait until tax season.
The rumoured SoCs don't hold up to the competition (and by competition I obviously mean Samsung and Apple)
How are they going to make SD810 look good at their conference? (or will they not talk about hardware performance at all...) Either way, if it's an SD810, it's likely to get destroyed in reviewers benchmarks.
The SD810 is much slower than the latest Exynos, and far, far, far slower than Apple's new A9 chip (it is probably even worse than Apple's year old A8).
Many of us were hoping for either SD820 or Kirin 950... But there are so many people confirming SD810 ....
I'm not super happy with my Nexus 6, but SD810 doesn't seem like much of an upgrade
Personally, I would rather they just keep the price down rather than engage in the ever ridiculous spec war. An 810 would be more than enough for a high end phone. I'm on an HTC M7 with an SD600 and it is still quite fast.

Absolutely. I, too am still rocking this M7. It's no quitter by any stretch of the imagination! I just want stock Android and guaranteed timely updates, which this phone will definitely provide. Additionally, it looks like the M7 as well! As long as there isn't a ridiculous camera bump and it's just an area of the phone with different materials used (for radios and other gadgets that can't pierce through aluminum), I'd be sound as a pound. Besides, with the incredible performance rumors marching the internet (it's apparently FOUR TIMES faster than last year's Nexus 6), I think it's safe to say that this phone will be in my pocket for many years to come.
I remember an AnandTech article talking about the price of SoCs. they said that a high end SoC costs less than $30… and the low end are $10....
I don't think Google chose the SD810 because it was cheap. They chose it because there are very few options.
Apple doesn't sell their SoCs. Samsung doesn't sell much. Certainly not to real competition.
Nvidia can't do a SoC at low power. That leaves Intel, QCOM and some of the Chinese brands.
The Chinese brands may not be chosen because the Nexus needs to get approved quickly by lots of carriers. US carriers are quicker to approve QCOM
I would happily pay an extra $10-20 for a top or the line SoC

The 808 is also very quick, so what's important though is optimization (as well as I/O, RAM type, and LTE/WiFi speed). I imagine even the SD600/S4P will continue to be useful for a few more years depending on how much of a burden future Android releases become.
Specs are good but not very useful if the software isn't on par. There's a reason why even phones like the G4, OP2, or S6 can show lag.

Totally agree. I just want both. We had both with the N4, N5, N6. All three of then technically had the very best SoC available at the time (at least if you don't count Apple).
The SD810 was not the 'best' even when they launched 6 months ago, which is rare for Qualcomm. I'm surprised they estimate the SD820 won't be until next year, because that means the entire 2015 has been a QCOM disaster.
If the rumours are true, these Nexuses will be a little bit of a letdown for me in the SoC department.
Just look at 2015. Samsung dropped them, and their Exynos 7420 was far superior to the SD810. And now Amazon just announced their new Fire TV has dropped QCOM, and is using a top end MediaTek with the new A72 cores!

Unlike previous years Qualcomm didn't have their personal architecture (Kyro or whatever) prepared for 2015, so the SD810 felt like more of a placeholder. The thermal issues are likely a side effect of them using standard A57/A53 cores, they usually rely on custom architectures like Apple.
The SD820 according to QC has a bunch of improvements however, I'm unsure of whether it can beat the next Exynos or A9x.
I haven't checked out the new Kindles, but if they'll use A72's that's pretty good considering their HDX used the SD800.

No they won't talk about performance. They know the 810 is a bad chip. They've most likely already throttled it or will do so soon afterwards and it'll still overheat, just like all the others.

Well those scores are still higher than any other Snapdragon at the moment. It's no E7420, but its the next best thing behind it. We also can't forget if this is the revised SD810 its been throttled to deal with its heating issues so the scores could possibly be higher. I don't care what the scores on paper say. All I want to know is are the heating issues fixed because some chips who have new 810 are still overheating.

a single benchmark doesn't matter, you have to look at a sustained performance. I could just take a phone out of a fridge to run a benchmark and I can guarantee you it'll be amazing, but if I run the same benchmark several times continuously, the score will be significantly lowered. the key here is whether can google/huawei do something to keep the continuous performance. let's say if I run the benchmarks 5 times in a row, how much deviation will there be between the first and last one? that's the important thing here. typical SD810's performance isn't bad, it's the throttling that everyone hates
I am curious to know which is faster? Our LG g2 or those Xiaomi redmi's phones based on processor power only? Any idea?

https://www.quora.com/Which-is-better-a-SD-801-vs-a-650-652-or-a-625
and a quote from reddit that sums it all:
"In the real world, 625 may have better multi-tasking performance (8 cores vs 4 cores on the 801). 801 has better single core performance, but not by much.
625 is also much newer and has a different configuration, uses a better gpu (adreno 510 vs adreno 330) so has native 4k playback, among other refinements you'd expect from a SoC that's 2 years newer."
I love this question, I've always looked at the SD 625 because it has more or less the same performance(sd625 has better advantage in multitasking ofcourse due to the more cores). The gpu is not that much better its more or less the same but it does support Vulkan API by the way if you're interested in that.
Not much games that uses Vulkan currently , the only one I know that uses it is VainGlory.

Yes, I am. Very tempted to buy it , but I will wait for the reviews first.

same here.. i've never felt so attracted to xiaomi phone lol.
The camera, pure android and slim design are what really hit me.
but the price is barely recommendable though, I could get a Mi5 or Mi6 by increasing my budget

The price will get down with time and coupons. I just don't want to believe just the hype of pure Android OS. Let's wait the reviews, I would say.

well if you're thinking of the negative like bloatware and stuff, the least we can expect is it makes it easy for the community ROM developer to make ROMS for it.
Did you know that the Mi A1 is featured on Google's Android One main page? I think that improve their credibility in getting pure Android on that phone
