Nexus 6 vs Moto X 2014: early verdict


In many ways the Nexus 6 is the Moto X with some minor updates: it has a bigger, more densely packed screen, a faster processor and an extra gigabyte of RAM. There’s a bigger battery too, although to an extent that’s nullified by the extra power required by that bigger display. If you like the Moto X but wish it were a little bigger, the Nexus 6 looks set to delight you - but if you’re quite happy with the slightly smaller display the inevitable discounting on the Moto X could make it quite the bargain.

What do you think? Is the Nexus 6 really the Moto X with some spec bumps? Is a wooden cover a deal-breaker?
