Should I buy Moto X 2014 or wait for Nexus 6

Motorola is going to launch Moto X 2014 for 31k at midnight.
Now the question is that is buying this now is a good option considering that Nexus 6 will be coming out soon.
Any input on this will be helpful. BTW budget is 50k :-D

If your budget is 50K, Consider M8 and G3 also?

M8 camera and G3 display is what is not for me. Plus I always prefer stock Android.

Moto X isn't running anywhere. so why not wait?

Buy a second hand Vertu Signature .

i think wait for nexus 6,moto x 2014 has already got us in awe
i cant even imagine what the nexus 6 will bring to the table now that the moto x is the buzz

Yeah that looks like a valid suggestion since I have sold my Nexus 5 has gone kaput and my s3 is ageing badly now I need a device early. Hope to get my Nexus 5 MoBo repaired.

Look at the price of virtu Signature touch. Its a clear luxury style statement.

Damn it, on same boat! As soon as I saw Motorola's tweet about the mid night launch on Flipkart today I am continuously reading the reviews of the X once more, trying to find good things (especially about the camera and storage section) about it while they are not present there

And that price is immensely attractive at Rs.31999 I am sure Flipkart will give some launch day offers too?

On one had S5 is there with it's brilliant display and fantastic camera, on the other hand we have this X 2014 running near stock Android. While the former would have been my choice any time still I can't forget the horror of TouchWiz and this video just made it clear to me, no don't go back to that ****ing awful thing.

M8 and G3 are out of consideration. The former because of it's aluminium unibody thing and that brilliant camera, and the latter is just plain nonsense.

Main problem storage, okieh camera and the big one nexus 6. Launch day benefits are cool from fk as of now

Why don't you give oppo find 7/7a a shot I believe they have very good developer support, which equates to latest updates, it's a good phone over all

Yes OppO has really killer design !

the real issue with oppo and one plus one is that for after sales,the phone needs to be shipped to a service centre
otherwise they are great and support cyanogenmod fully!
still a nexus 5 or moto x 2014 makes more sense overall,not that oppo is bad or anything

Eh oppo have been selling devices here for a while and I don't know the exact situation of service Centre right now, but when a brand like that becomes the official sponsor of an event like champions league t20,you know they are serious

If camera is not a big deal Moto X blows competition out of water. Moto features are damm awesome (best UX)

Well dude one can manage the storage with stuffs life dual pen drives and all but that camera is seriously not acceptable in 2014.
Just look at that red flower photo in GSMArena review, it's simply awful, the saturation is garbage! To be quite honest I was liking the Moto G's camera better than it, yeah less detailed but the saturation is at least acceptable!

Don't know how Motorola messed up an otherwise decent sensor!

No I will have to refrain myself from buying this but not really confident

Good thing is that IT is keeping an eye on me and I won't use my CC

Wait for OPO, Nexus 6 [mid-october] since you prefer stock android
Or wait and get a Note 4

K

note 4??

i dont think samsungs phones are a viable option anymore after seeing my friends suffer with various models except maybe the S4 and S5 which are decent for photos etc but still are overpriced
Nexus ,Moto X and LG G3 blow every other android anyday

With the price of Moto X 2nd gen, I am not sure if it's VFM.
I have to buy a phone too. Am waiting for N6 to be announced. It will be around this same price.

Hmm just saw Flipkart, ain't bad offers.

But one thing for Android purists, make sure it'll come with an unlockable bootloader, otherwise you'll be stuck with a phone which you'll never be able to root.
However going by the original X's path we should have the European version, which generally aren't carrier dependant and comes with unlockable bootloader.

The leather version is 34k, hmm I'm gonna wait I think!

I am also in the same boat.

E8 , Moto X , G3 , M8 , New Nexus?

I think I will hold my purchase till November.

New nexus is going to be around 6 inches and looks like a bigger motox if the leaked photos are to be believed
Best option is to wait till Diwali and see what transpires next, companies like zte etc are also coming, mi4 and who knows even oPO might be released
Huawei honor is another one

Yeah I think I might pass the offer for a little bit more time since there are no real great first day offers

Too much development gave my phone a heart attack

Its a decent but old sony sensor.
