Can't just they make a design that looks like Moto X Gen 1 or 2 that with Fingerprint scanner on the back M logo dimple. doh.gif Dual front facing speaker.

Logically speaking, that's not possible with mods, unless they include fingerprint sensor in every mod, which is inefficient and costly.

Fingerprint scanner has to be at the front or else the mods wouldn't be possible.

you have a good point there...

then again, they could just do the sensor like they did with the camera. just make the camera bulge bigger and include the fingerprint sensor around that area... smile.gif

Sad, they put the Moto wording in front. Previous Moto Phones don't have any logo/wording in front panel, only back panel with the Motorola logo.

I'm pretty sure parallel importers will bring the device in, besides waiting for Lenovo to bring it into M'sia (yeah right!) when even the MXStyle 2015 hasn't even come in yet.

We might as well wait for a Mars colony to be established then the devices will come in (okay not that long but just exaggeration).

i'm one of those... not really turned off but honestly, not sure how i'd be able to cope with it...

my usage scenario:
at end of day, i usually relax by watching movie or playing games and will be using earphones (else noise will disturb others). it's end of day and i will probably need to charge my phone as well. so... how?

i guess i may need to use my wireless headset, but i do prefer using my wired ones... so much easier and smaller compared to my Jabra Evolve headset.

most probably thats where the battery pack mods comes in. still, usb c port has not been tested either as sturdy as the good old earphone jack. ending up with a broken charging port would be the worst thing that could happen.

true on both counts.

that's one reason why i'm not very keen to see devices with USB Type-C. i feel there are still too many issues that needs to be ironed out with this new standard. and there's also the concern about "certified cables"... coz otherwise, cable might end up destroying the device.

Well, doesn't matter much to me, I have been using Bluetooth headsets for some time now. Bluedio headsets are quite good and very affordable.

If you think about it, why go through all those trouble just to put fingerprint sensor behind? I think much better place would be at the power button, similar to the Z5, but front is good too, just doesn't feel that natural.

it's not really trouble. no different than placing the camera at the back.

If they put it near the camera, there might be small issues like fingerpring smudge at the camera, and especially using flashlight, its not good to have your finger nearby the camera as your finger will caused the reflection and stuff. Although its just my opinion and I totally understand and respect your points of views tongue.gif

The front fingerprint sensor is OK but the design looks weird. Squarish thing in the middle. If on the white colour front even more confusing as its flanked by two dots (proximity sensors). The white front looks too cluttered imo. Agree with that they could've incorporated the fingerprint scanner onto the power button at the side. Would look cleaner

Lenovo, I see what you did there with the Style Mod back covers ...

That is because without the covers, the Camera hump is very obvious and can be easily damaged. And a new owner HAS to get one Style Mod Cover so that the camera hump is flushed.

Phone wise, the Z Force is the more preferred choice (to me) cause of the  beefed up battery & Shatter Shield Display. And why....no 3.5mm headphone jacks? 😱😱😱

I'm going to hold on to my MXStyle 2015 for the time being.. πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

Hmm not really la I think. If people opt to go for cases instead, the bulge will be flushed too

But then again, case makers will have a big headache in making cases, as they have to consider the phone with & without the shells

Hasselblad, a Swedish company. Did a quick search, I don't think it's gonna be cheap. The projector is rumored to be priced at $300
