Just go and compare the nexus 6 with the droid turbo and you will find it's the same phone!! I'm just curious if they're going to keep the AMOLED display so the Nexus will feature the active display too. And that would be awesome! And 32 gigs are plenty of memory. I've got the 16 gig Moto G and I'm pretty happy with it ;) I'll stick with Moto for sure. But it's gonna be a tough choice between Moto X, Moto Nexus and Droid Turbo :)

    Man it's got OIS, which I've really been wanting. If it also has the (probably very high quality) four microphone noise cancellation in the Moto X, it's going to have everything I've been wanting in a hone.

    Except that damn 6" screen!!!!!! Argh. Why are all the best phones phablets now? It's so aggravating.

      Oh the 560 is DPI while the pixel 496 is PPI.

        Why does the specs sheet list pixel density at 560 when the articles states 496? Confused.

            I don't wait for this large phone. I wait for Android L. The Kitkat in my waterproof Z1 Compact is hungry for ART.

              Samsung is not going to like this news...... note 4 already has issues contending with the 6+ let alone the very popolur nexus series with a phablet now. Google going for the kill against Samsung.

                I believe there are formulas to calculate screen size

Moreover, Qualcommn 805 is faster than 64 bit cpu of iphone 6 plus. Also, nexus 6 would have 3GB or ram and won't take advantage of 64 bit architecture.

                    DPI and PPI are not the same. On the Nexus 5, ppi is 445. Stock dpi is 480, although some edit a configuration file to customize that to their liking.

                      Andrew, 09 Oct 2014Why can you only use like 800 megabytes of RAM?There was probably a bunch of apps running in the background.

                        The table above suggests that the display might be 5.0", is that correct? If that is the case why are people talking mostly about 5.9 and 5.92?
                        Is it possible Google will offer two screen sizes like Apple did?

                          Andrew, 09 Oct 2014Why can you only use like 800 megabytes of RAM?It's not just about ram size, it's also about the ability for processors to perform fast computations on large numbers with 1 instruction instead of 2-3.

                            Google plays two roles in Android:
                            1) It is the lead developer of the OS, as such as the responsability of keeping the OS in the cutting edge of technology (mobile 64bits is a part of this)
                            2) They are device manufacturers, in which they have the Nexus line that isn't made to be the ABSOLUTE tip-top of technology but rather the AFFORDABLE tip-top of technology. 32bit fits like a glove here.

                            Like you see, there's nothing to be confused about.

                              If this is made of steel, and has a better camera than the Z3 then I'll definitely be getting one

                                So from previous comments, this should be about a 5"? I will totally buy this phone if it is that size. I love Motorola.

                                  why whould google launch and operating system that 64bit compatible and make a phone that is 32bit? it doesnt make sense at all

                                      If 560dpi is correct then for resolution 1440 x 2392 it should be 5.2".

                                        Looks ok to me, I'm not that picky about screen sizes. 6 and below are still manageable to me, Im not a small hand sized.
                                        Specs wise this one has top notch, I agree with everyone here that Qhd is just overkill.

                                        Will see the actual phone when it gets released, looks like too soon for a concrete opinion
