Moto G LTE. Crazy good battery life. I crushed my OG Moto G in a door last month. I got bought three of the LTE version, for me, my Mom, and my MIL. Simply amazing phone for the price ($220 unlocked.) [Reply]
Benchmarks are leading people to believe its going to come with an 801 chip. They don't have to do anything special with it because everything they did with the X comes native on that chip, so if it still has the same experience and bare naked android then it should be a pretty ****ing fast phone.
Just hope with the 805 coming out on the Note 4 and shit that Motorola will still be able to hit that $400-$500 price range. [Reply]

AnTuTu's database has the device under the name Google shamu, which seems to solidify the rumor that this will indeed be the Nexus 6. The device carries a 5.2" QHD (1,440 x 2,560 pixles) display with around 564 ppi for unmatched sharpness.
The camera on the back will be a 13MP unit coupled with a 2.1MP one for the front. Finally the Shamu will be adorned with Android L for good measure - adding even more fuel to the Nexus fire.
Pretty beastly phone. Not sure how I feel about that resolution, though. I would trade that screen for a 1080p and 64gb of storage any day. It'll be interesting to see the retail price on it. I have a feeling it might not be in line with past Nexus pricing. [Reply]

It's also a battery sucking waste of resources.
Which is why AMOLED is just around the corner. The ability to turn off pixels is a huge resource saver- especially for all these large screen phones / phablets.
Screen illumination is by far the biggest energy user / battery hog. If you go with AMOLED with an inverted scheme / "blackout", the battery savings will be GIGANTIC.
Another + is way better picture, because you get true blacks since the pixel is actually turned off versus generating a black color. [Reply]
I'll be upgrading from my Galaxy Nexus sometime later this fall and if the Nexus 6 is a lot more expensive than this thing I might give it a shot. My concern is the 1+1 being too big. I could always give it to the wife and take her Nexus 5. [Reply]
