Zero problems for me as I wear baggy pants n shorts with deep side pockets. I could even fit in Nexus7 n Tab7 tablets . This phone has thin bezels n is only marginally bigger than Xperia Z Ultra.

i use skinny jeans, still can fit in although it is the maximum it can go

as compared to Note3, i think they are different in many way.. Note3 is like one of the best smartphone, at a phablet size.. but X1 giving advantage on screen size and battery life, other than that nothing else spectacular, performance wise its a bit slow compared to other flagship nowadays, but it can get the job done and doesn't give me migraine.. why i love X1 very much because i'm taking advantage of the big screen for reading and media, at the same time doesn't have to worry about battery left..

One is a very big size phablet while the Note4 is a common size phablet. Based on specs alone Note4 is a straight winner. The cost of Note 4 is at least 2.3-2.4x that of this X1. Your decision will solely based on what you wish the phablet for.
X1 is great for media ( audio n video), reading ebooks or mags n extreme excellent battery life ( easily 12-14 hours). I had given my 5 sen quick review ( see page1) n its performance is just above average.
The Note4 performance will definitely be better n if you need SPen than is auto your choice.
Those who like to flash stuffs will prefer the Note4

Try Huawei sales outlets

Lenovo has a habit of no sd slot. Otherwise a nice device.

Mate7 will also be a good choice.

Main phone LG G Pro2 while Oppo Find 7 is secondary phone
Note4 haven't decided yet. Wait for launch first , had a test feel than only decide
Mate 7 is a very good alternative

OTA yes to 4.4.2. Even if you do it manually it is incredibly simple. Just put the folder on sdcard and reboot.

Here it is, it's dark blue, not black
