New Moto X now available on Verizon

Mine has none of those issues. I guess I'm lucky. :)

Mine looks beautiful, feels very thin and smaller than I expected. My S4 looks really old in comparison. I can't comment on battery life yet, but I took a few pictures and I didn't see any issues.

My only complaint is the leather. Not really a complaint I guess, but it is a little harder and more slippery than I was expecting. I'll see how it wears and if it grows on me but my first impression is that it might not be much of a upgrade over the regular smooth back.
I'm keeping the phone in consideration but if I get it I will buy it on an Edge plan which is a pain in the ass with Moto Maker I've been told.

I've been happy with the battery life so far. When playing with it constantly I only got about 9 hours, but that was Day One and my screen was on for about 6 hours, so not worried. The last couple of days have been much closer to typical use. Yesterday I plugged in before bed with 10% remaining after almost 21 hours. Today I'm at 61% remaining after almost 6 hours unplugged. Trying to see what I'm left with when I get home this evening, without plugging in at work at all.

Update: after 10 hours 11 minutes unplugged, I'm down to 21% remaining. Doesn't look like I'll make it to bedtime (5 hours from now) without charging. I'll update again later.
