Sony Xperia Z on amazon black friday deal this afternoon. Keep an eye on it.

The Xperia Z is a P.O.S. with an unfortunate tendency to fall apart: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2304680&page=55

Getting rid of mine was the best decision I made.

I have the SP now and the Moto G; the Motorola is better than the Sony in every area I care about - screen quality, battery life, speediness etc.

None of that supports what you are saying.

Simple fact is the Google Hardware = Nexus devices.

Motorola do not produce Nexus devices despite being owned by Google. Why? Because Google aren't interested in the manufacture of the actual phone. They are purely interested in being the first to showcase their own platform on a device that they selected, at a heavily discounted price to reach its hardcore user base in limited numbers.

What you are saying just doesn't make sense. It would be a conflict of interest for Google to use Motorola as its manufacturing arm. It would then be sending its pure android devices to market to compete against Motorola's very own bloatware android devices.

Again, not sure why you are questioning that Moto G is near pure android due to being a budget phone. Look at the Moto X and then look at the Moto G UI and then tell me which one cut costs by not adding the additional software on top.

OK. Like I said, time will tell how this pans out. At the moment it's conjecture on both our parts, if we are being honest. Don't think it's a good idea to continue taking this thread OT to be honest.
