It's quad core. Looks like an excellent phone for the price. Interesting that Motorola is one-uping the Nexus to some degree here (the Nexus is closer to being a flagship, but this is significantly cheaper).
This might be my next. What's for sure is I'm never buying another $600 phone again.
- a3n 13y agoI'll never buy one of those again either, subsidized or not. One reason beyond the cost is being at the mercy of the telco for upgrades. So, unlocked, is this thing jail-breakable/cyanogenmodable or similar? What's a reasonable expectation for how many years I could keep it security upgraded?
- soperj 13y agoYou don't need to be unlocked any more to install CyanogenMod, for most popular phones. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/CyanogenMod_Installer#Supported_Devices http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/CyanogenMod_Installer#Supporte...
- just_bytecode 13y agoThe Motorola blog says that the phone will have an unlockable bootloader (in the U.S) which means you should be able to install custom ROMs.
- evilmushroom 13y agoI really enjoy my $399 32gb Nexus 5. I couldn't be happier. But yeah, $600-900... never again.
- Negativemeat 13y agoIt's quad core cortex A7 @1.2 Ghz, that's not even in the same league as the 2 year old Galaxy Nexus (dual cortex A9 @ 1.2). This is in no way comparable to any modern flagship smartphone performance wise.
