THIN 4G LTE, great screen (supposedly). No idea about battery life, or bugginess until it’s out.

main reason it is pure android meaning there is no manufacturer skin over the top to slow the phone down, also it will run the newest version of android that will be announced later today and you get all the updates first since google takes care of that

If you’re not a cell phone geek then you might not like the prime that much. HTC usually has the easiest to use and best looking out-of-the-box interface.

well all phones will have some bugs, thats just the nature of how things work but the good thing about the nexus is that when google fixes them you get it right away and not 6 months later

The Samsung will get updates before any other phone.

Well, Google is soon to own Motorola, not THAT surprised. Maybe they’ll talk about the merger. Hopefully he’ll mention something about moto phones getting updates faster!! lol

$249 for an 8gb ipod nano with gps, wrist band, and wireless earbuds with a built-in heartrate monitor. At least, I think it includes the heart rate earbuds.

Either way… Naw. I’ll pass.

Wow, 7.1mm thick and claiming over 12 hours of talk time. I can barely get 12 hours of standby some days on my DX. Granted my cheap chinese ebay batteries don’t help… 😛

splashproof

as if verizon didn’t put enough bloatware on the device, motorola has just added a whole nother layer of fake cloud computing bullshit and other apps that will likely not work as well as market apps.

moto should go back and prepare themselves for ICS

Huh? I mean, it looks more like an iphone than say a yorkshire terrier, but it doesn’t really look any more like an iphone than any other touch screen phone.
