        So US has 2 version? the Moto Z Droid and Moto Z?
        The Moto Z Droid doesn't support lte b28. But wondering if the US definitely does have 2 version? or only the Z Droid?

        • ilikeradiohead on 29/11/2016 - 17:04

          It has two. Verizon has the Z droid, all the other carrier have the Z.

        • CLoSeR on 30/11/2016 - 10:52

          @ilikeradiohead:

          Not correct, there are two versions in the US. The Moto Z Droid (Moto Z without DualSim) and the Moto Z Force (larger battery, different camera, still not dual-sim).

          The Moto Z Droid is the closest model to the Australian Moto Z.

          @CLoSeR: The Z force droid is a different phone. If you go on the Motorola USA website, you'll see that there are five different Z models.

          My point is still correct. Verizon has the Droid, all other carriers have the Z. Verizon also has the Z force droid, and the Z play droid, and the Z play is available to other carriers.

        • CLoSeR on 30/11/2016 - 11:21

          @ilikeradiohead: I see what your saying, they still have the Moto Z and Moto Z Droid.

          I'm looking for cases for the Moto Z on Amazon and I can only really find results for Moto Z Droid, not a lot for Moto Z.

          Pretty sure they are both the same form factor and it's only the Moto Z Force cases which will not fit Australian Moto Z?

        • ilikeradiohead on 30/11/2016 - 11:31

          @CLoSeR: Both phones are 153.3 x 75.3 x 5.19mm so I think you can get droid cases for the regular Z. May want to double check though.

    • redwood on 29/11/2016 - 16:10

      HN got it for $700 til early Dec

      • alz on 29/11/2016 - 16:21

        Not the Z. HN has the Z Play which is the mid ranger.

        • redwood on 29/11/2016 - 16:28

          My bad

    No headphone jack. No deal. At least until or unless no phone comes with one.

  • bargaino on 29/11/2016 - 14:34

    What is the advantage of this over the new Moto X Force, a bit cheaper locally, and 3.5mm socket?

    64GB is nice, but with a SD slot, doesn't matter much. 4GB vs3GB RAM - might make a little difference with more boated software upgrades in future?
    Better camera? Its got a laser!

    • ironpaw on 29/11/2016 - 14:53

      dunno but I got my wife a X Force recently and it's pretty nifty. Great battery life, supposedly smash proof screen, and stock android.

    • [Deactivated] on 29/11/2016 - 14:56

      820 v 810.

      • rodericb on 29/11/2016 - 20:57

        And the Moto X will max out at Nougat but the Z will go another release of Android after that most probably.

    • ilikeradiohead on 29/11/2016 - 15:31

      Here is a specification comparison on GSM arena
      Essentially:

      • Slightly bigger screen (5.5 vs 5.4)
      • Different processor (820 vs 810)
      • Different screen glass (GG4 vs 'Shatterproof')
      • Ram (4gb vs 3gb)
      • Different Camera
      • USB C vs micro USB 2.0
      • Z has a fingerprint scanner

      The no headphone jack might be an issue, although like the iPhone there is an adapter included in the box.

      The X force has been around $480 recently, might be a better buy (although I think $680 is a good price for this phone). If I hadn't recently got a Moto X Style it'd be a toss up between them.

    This should have been the Moto Y:

    Tiny battery, why?
    Motomods, why?
    No headphone jack, why?
    Ridiculous thinness, why?
    Came after Moto X, Y.

    I rest my case.

    • bargaino on 29/11/2016 - 15:39

      Tiny battery, why?

      To make it thinner.

      No headphone jack, why?

      See above.

      Ridiculous thinness, why?

      Because … ask Apple?
      Motorola in a previous incarnation did well with thin phones, back when Apple had iPods with spinning hard drives.

    • CLoSeR on 29/11/2016 - 17:17

      The battery isn't much smaller than that of the Pixel and it lasts two days easily.

      Android Nougat is really really great with battery life.

  • daft009 on 29/11/2016 - 16:12

    the moto style shells and some of the mods also seem decently priced on amazon.com!

    bought a leather & nylon shell shipped for ~AU$55, whereas here they are $29 each + delivery & leather is not avialable from what I can see.

    Good phone. Have been using this for a month now and haven't slowed down yet. The fingerprint sensor, while not a home button, wakes the device and locks the device without using the power button which is so handy. Only thing I hate is the removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack. Battery life been okay for me so far.

  • CLoSeR on 29/11/2016 - 17:16

    Not bad, keep in mind that this version isn't dual-sim like the Australian model sold here.

    Also missing is local warranty if that is something important to you.

  • Willy Bargin on 30/11/2016 - 14:05

    Noooooooooooooooooooo

    I just bought a Z play for $640 after the ebay deal from the Good guys

    I don't want to see any post for at least 6 months of a cheap price (HEHE)

  • Willy Bargin on 30/11/2016 - 14:29

    FYI $647 at office work

    • ilikeradiohead on 30/11/2016 - 16:06

      That's the Z Play, not the Z. Different phones. See this comment.
      It's also 32GB, not 64GB.

      • Willy Bargin on 30/11/2016 - 16:59

        yea i know , I was going to get the Z but it was extra $300 now it the same price :(
