Congrats! Looking forward to your thoughts on it.

So far not too shabby. Never owned a moto since Lenovo got a hold of them. So, I like the quality and device feel. The buttons are small and sturdy. The power button has grooves for feel/finding/or placement of it for your finger. Overall the feel of the phone and holding it in the hand is good. Weirdly though it is a big device. As large as my 950xl in overall dimensions. So for a 5.5" screen I was not too pleased for it to have that going for it. The camera bump is awful but with a case or moto back it turns out ok...

I am not huge on Android anymore, so honestly the sw (nougat) had nothing new that I found eye popping or overly intriguing. It is a good little phone. The battery life for this model is stellar. I'll see how long I keep it around...

So far I can say the build quality is top-notch. It's definitely more slippery than my Idol but that's to be expected. The display is as awesome as advertised but I'm not quite used to the aspect ratio. I haven't had the chance to play with DeX yet but that is coming. I did see a few non-Microsoft DeX-compatible apps available so that's good. No word yet on battery life but it's 9:20AM and it's at 92% (that's great for me). My Gear S2 is naturally working fantastic so nothing to report there.

One minor quibble that may grow into a full blown rant is the curious placement of the fingerprint scanner. I see many smudged pictures in my future due to this. So much so that whenever you open the camera app there's a reminder to make sure the lens is clean.

I'll update as I go along.


The fingerprint sensor location is awful in my opinion. So too the heart rate sensor on the other side of the camera lens. A TPU case does aid finding the FPS easier but I still never used it and opted instead for using my Zenwatch 2 as a trusted device so it was always unlocked when connected to it. Maybe you could do the same with your Gear S 2?

Oh yeah, that was task #1 after pairing the S2. I picked up a wallet case today and yes, it does help locating the FPS.

Like new Sony NEX 7 no lens...
Lot of people say this camera isn't very good.
Got it from Amazon warehouse deals for $260.00 USD.

Not a scratch or a ding anywhere!
For used it's perfect.

Came with a 30 dollar VELLO pro-glass screen protector on the LCD too.

Joined the 4k HDR bandwagon much sooner than expected.

Not OLED thin but still very very slim.
