Right now I have the S2, and I've been debating on getting the Moto X for the past month but with the N4 dropping down to only $199, I'm confused. On paper both very similar and I don't care about wifi calling, I don't need it. I could wait for the Nexus 5, whenever that drops, but I'm not down to spend $500-600 on a phone right now.
So, the Nexus 4 and the Moto X are very similar, so I should go with the Nexus 4, right?
Yes I would personally go with the N4 if I had to make the choice.
And thats because these factors.
1.N4 has a huge community
2.It's cheapers than the Moto X

Exactly, and cheap enough to have a great back up device if the N5 is so out of this world that I have to buy it. Besides, I won't ever buy from Tmobile ever since their stupid monthly installment plan came into play.

I actually owned one for like 2 weeks about 6 months ago but ended up returning it. Not because I didn't like it, but because I was dead set on getting the HTC One and couldn't see myself keeping this $350 phone AND buying another later down the line. But yea, gonna get the bumper with it since its a slippery bastard.

For me, N4 is still the obvious winner compared to any phone out there. $249 for an unsubsidized/unlocked phone is a steal. Even if the next Nexus comes out in two weeks, I still won't mind having spent $249 yesterday for the N4.
I was lucky; I FUBAR'd my original N4 just two days ago, then the price drop was announced the following day!

299 is questionable. That has to be for the 64gb. My hopeful thinking is 199=16gb, 249=32gb, 64gb, 299. Who knows...
And he said at launch Verizon exclusive. Wtf HTC that too crappy CDMA carrier with ugly logos. Why not just release on all carriers plus the unlocked models. Tired of this exclusive crap.

I'm betting the only way Verizon would put it on their network is if they had initial exclusivity. HTC, wanting to have a phone available on all carriers like Samsung does, was likely forced to comply.
You can blame HTC for accepting this condition, but they're just trying to compete. Verizon is the evil one here.

call and see if they will refund the difference, or send you Visa gift card for the difference...
Especially if you are in your return window.. you can threaten to return and rebuy.

They have pretty good customer service, you might be able to get them to credit you the difference.. or you can return it and buy it again.. I know people had some luck with that during previous sales.
I bought new off of swappa. My remorse is strictly from the standpoint of my inability to have patience. ?

Couldn't have come at a better time for me. Never going to buy another phone that isn't Dev Edition again.
I am very happy with my DE purchase. Just wish I would have done I sooner but the 324 price rocks

So tempted to get this but with the Moto X+1 right around the corner I just can't pull the trigger. It's definitely killing me not having a DE phone though.

"Cheap" X Developer Edition now, or more expensive X+1 Developer edition (if they have a dev edition) later. That is the question...
I guess it depends on your needs. If you find 4.7" the right size, if the rumors of larger screen on the X+1 are true, it might be "too big" (Probably will be too big for me.. the 4.99" on the GS4 and 5.1" on the GS5 are too big for me).
When the Dev Edition X went on sale in the end of September, it was $649.99. They dropped the price to $549.99 Nov 7.
What will the X+1 initially sell for? And is it worth that price difference?

All they announced was a Verizon Z3? Not even a Z3C? What a bunch of hype for nothing!
So glad I didn't wait on this event to buy my Z3C, but disappointed not to see more U.S. carrier support. Oh well.

I agree, I am very upset that there was no mention of the Z3C at all. I might as well buy it unlocked now.
@phositadc - Where did you buy your Z3C? How much was it? And are you using it for Tmobile?

I bought it from a vendor named Delta Mobiles on Amazon. It was about 15% more expensive than Clove, but I don't have to worry about imports and it was on Amazon prime so it has easy and free returns if I need to return. Total cost was $550. They ran out of stock after I bought.
Using on AT&T and it works great so far, but I've only had it 1 day. But very promising, might turn out to be my favorite phone ever because it's a great combo of reasonable size and flagship specs.

I found DeltaMobiles on Amazon. Its $535.00 for White Z3C with Prime Shipping. And Chase freedom gives 5% back making it $508.25 shipped. Too bad the Green Color isnt in stock atm. I wonder how the warranty will be handled in the USA..
I think I'll sleep on it over the weekend and make my decision then. Thanks for the info!

5% back? Is that a permanent thing on all purchases from Amazon?
If so I need to get that card... I buy WAY too much from Amazon.

Can you use an amazon z3c in Verizon?
no, you can't use any of the z3's except for the z3v on verizon.
What's the fastest/easiest way to unlock the play? Looking to get a telus play and use it on Rogers.
I went to eBay Canada and found a service in the UK and paid $4.95 CAD, had the code in less than 24hrs. Put my FIDO SIM card in and haven't looked back. You can pm me if you want to know the exact name of who I used. p.s. Mine was from Telus

There's no convincing you huh, only trying to help. Honestly I have been using a nexus 5 since October '13 and upgraded to the mxp last month. I don't see much difference at all. In fact, my nexus 5 was more buttery smooth. Had I just purchased a battery case to extend the battery life, I would go back to my nexus 5 in a heartbeat. I'm stuck with this mxp now since I'm passed the refund period. I'd suggest the previously mentioned devices if you're on the fence. Good luck

Right now I have an HTC one M7, I'm just dipping around in other phones til I get the moto x play. I went from my N5, to BlackBerry Z30, to LG G3, now the M7. Every once in a while I'll go phone crazy and test out everything
I think you'll be really happy with the Moto X Play, yes it doesn't have the latest greatest Snapdragon but there are so many pluses to this phone. I have been very happy with mine, I don't have any of the issues like lag, stutter, etc. Not really sure why some people have had them but I would say they are in the minority.
The pluses are:
Great screen - better brightness than iPhone 6 so outside visibility is wonderful.
Overall the screen looks pretty good - good colour accuracy & viewing angles.
Much improved camera, it can now hold its own with the competition.
As compared to previous Motorola phones.
Great battery - class leading IMO.
Fairly good build quality - only small niggle is power & volume keys could be slightly better (my phone doesn't seem bad).
micro SD card slot - FTW.
Changeable back - different colours are available.
Fairly clean Lollipop - not a lot of extra bloatware, and what's there works well as reported by Motorola users.
