Wow, I'm surprised it actually got ICS. I just watched a video review on it, the UI is actually really neat. How smooth/choppy is the 3D animation in the UI? Out of curiosity, why would you use towelroot on a Nexus? All you have to do is a couple fastboot commands to unlock the boot loader...

It doesn't look like there is a simple one-click root for that phone, but I did find some step by step instructions, translated from Japanese. Honestly, I wouldn't attempt doing this if you aren't familiar with the android SDK or ADB. This is the type of stuff we used to have to do back in the...

I remember that phone, it's the Evangelion one, right? It's got a pretty slick theme but it looks completely impractical.

Well like I said, I'm definitely not writing off Windows phone. I've had a fair amount of hands on time with the 930, and it was a completely different experience than the 830. That is the phone I really want, but unfortunately LTE won't work on AT&T and that's a deal breaker for me. I know...

I'm probably not the best guy to answer this, because the 830 was my very first Windows phone and I returned it after a few days due to a bad experience. But here goes- 1.) Yes, TONS of delay and lag. This was the main reason why I returned it. My primary phone is a 2014 Moto X, and it is...

I'm not terribly impressed by the design.

This is what I'm using on my new Surface Pro 3-

I had the same one as you, I just sold it to a buddy for $300 with the type cover. I probably could have gotten $100 more but it was a friend so I gave him a deal. They are typically being listed for $450 on Craigslist around where I live, but that doesn't mean that's what they are going for. I...

If your Android phone is slow and not smooth then you bought the wrong phone. I have both the 2014 Moto X and the Nexus 5 and both phones are insanely fast and as smooth as can be. I had the Nokia Lumia 830 and compared to my Android phones it was slow, laggy, jerky, and just generally not as...

The cameras aren't as bad as some people make them out to be. You can get some really nice shots out of them. All the other things that make Motorola phones great more than make up for the middle of the road cameras.

I have a Moto X (black/black leather) and it's a seriously amazing phone. The build quality is fantastic, it's ridiculously fast and smooth, and has some truly great features. I had a brief stint with WP8.1 and while it has potential, it just can't compete with Android, and the Moto X is the...

It's possible mine was defective but knowing the SOC it has and the lack of RAM, I don't think that's likely. I don't know why you don't think you can view all your info at a glance on Android without your screen looking cluttered... ever hear of chronus or dashclock? This is my main home screen...

I don't have the phone any longer so I can't really go through and tell you everywhere it lags and doesn't lag. From memory, the keyboard was incredibly laggy in some apps and it drove me nuts. It was worst in tapatalk and was often words behind. I saw the resuming screen about 30% of the time...

It wasn't user error, everything was setup properly. It's just wonky. Does anyone know why the keyboard would close on me in the middle of typing sometimes? That's more annoying than the kickstand issue. Edit: just figured out why it's closing on me. I'm typing too fast and sometimes when I...

Lol yup! It's nice being able to have a conversation like this where there's no fanboyism and each other's opinions are respected. Cheers bud!
