I saw you mention this in the N4/N5 thread, thanks for the heads-up, I'll have my eye on it for sure.

Do we know what all backs will be available at no extra fee?? What backs will also be available for how much??

 

[The_Chief]

NO doubt the wood and leather backs will be a premium... but it's all speculation until 9/3. I SO look forward to 12:01 AM that date!

Does the order site go up pretty much immediate on release date??

 

[The_Chief]

Not sure... but I won't take any chances on a backorder

Seems to be ALOT more chatter over on the Note-5 forum. I would think there'd be way more interest in this one!?!?!?!

Cyber, I really truly believe that the MX Pure is a best-kept secret or something! I mean, I had NO IDEA this phone was pending or even existed until 4 days ago... and I just stumbled upon it. And it's a phenomenal device! I think once more people find out about it, activity here will explode

My last 2 phones were HTC, the M8 and the M7, the camera was so disappointing that is why HTC isn't on my list. I thought I'd try the iPhone of Androids(Samsung), but, it's too expensive compared to what appears to be an awesome phone(I hope) for almost half the price. I had the Motorola Bionic before the M7, Bionic was a stupid name, but, I liked the phone well enough to give Motorola another try.

If Moto had either allowed the battery to be replaced, or put a bigger battery in, this device would be pure gold. The battery decision though pushing the display size, res and display tech (LCD) is concerning. Hope I am wrong!
