Motion looks good...great upgrade from my Indulge. Although it does seem kinda bulky by specs...any firsthand accounts of that or is it good?

Let's put it this way my last 2 phones was a nexus(4.65) and a evo(4.3) so it will be hard to adjust to a smaller screen.If the phone launches without major problems I could care less who makes it.

The ZTE isn't an upgrade for a Motion.
It is an alternative. By the end of the year Metro should have the full range of screen-sizes covered, with everything except the S3 making a compromise somewhere. 3.5" Motion, 4.0" Connect, 4.3" Anthem, 4.8" S3.

Since I would lose very little if I sold my motion I would have no problem switching.if the specs are right then it may not be a major upgrade but it is an upgrade.bigger screen and 1.5 s4

I agree with this. Seems like they want various screen sizes for various people

Think you meant a $150 phone.hopefully with metro changing the wording there won't be as much confusion about the price like there was for the motion.
Edit- could of swore I read should be a good $99 phone my mistake

Are bigger screens REALLY that important to people that they would buy this phone over another phone that's the same price with exponentially better specs?

As long as they give us the ability to manually update our phones ourselves, we're don't have nothing to worry about.
