Active Display on the Moto X

   May 2, 2021  46 Comments on Active Display on the Moto X

Phil takes a quick look at Active Display on the Moto X. This feature allows you to take a peek at emails, text messages, and regular notifications without fully unlocking your phone. You’ll get an icon to show that there is a notification, and if you just tap and hold you’ll get a preview. When looking at the preview you can either swipe down to return to your lock screen , or swipe up to open the app and bring you directly to the app sending you notifications. Even when the phone is sleeping, the active display also gives you the time. You can enable, or disable the Active Display from your settings to make things nice and easy. You’ll even find a handy how-to for an explanation of what the Active Display does, an how it works right there.

  5. Terrible "feature." "Instead of picking up your phone to see notifications, don't you want to pick up your phone AND swipe to see your notifications?" Also the swipe direction to unlock is opposite the default lock screen direction. Inconsistent. Also it STILL looks like the KitKat lock screen, they never even bothered to change it.

  8. Still don't get it.

    Okay, so the phone is sitting on a table without my hand anywhere near it. It gets a text or whatever.

    Does this 'time display' start fading in and out every so often on its own without any active input from me? Or does it only light up if the phone is moved / approached / interacted with in some way??

  9. Hello. I have moto x play. It have moto display but if i looking to google play cant find it. When i googling moto display and click to google które in chrome i find moto display but i see my fone dont support moto display? What is gona wrong?

  12. so you have to touch the screen in order to check notifications and that's what people think is better then a notification led, which you can check at a glance?

  16. which other phones support active display ? i wish to buy xperia z2 but it has lcd and i've learnt that motox supports amoled display that uses only the pixels required instead of all the pixels on the screen ? can z2 support active display and if so then will 3200ma battery be sufficient for it ?

  24. Dynamic notifications on the play store is similar. Only problem,it'll turn on your entire screen instead of just the pixels thereby using more battery than normal !

  25. not likely, wont work on nexus 4 or any phone with IPS LCD because it would need to turn the whole screen on, compared to the LED on the moto X that just turns specific pixels on (battery saving), on the nexus 4 for example this whole be comparable to having the screen constatnly on

  26. Great phone.
    I appreciate that they don't focus so much on hardware as they do on software, the key feature so many companies leave undone or limit to specific countries (e.g. HTC One's TV Remote thingy works only in handful of countries despite being sold worldwide).
    I'd trade my HTCOne with MotoX anytime.

  29. It's really sad this one is not coming to Europe. :/ Hopefully Motorola and Google has something else in the making for Europe.

  31. it would be even better if you could unlock the phone with just a swip on the display, like on the blackberry.

  32. what about when the phone is in your pocket? will it constantly turn on active display or will it notice that it's in your pocket?

  34. i dont get it , everytime you move the phone it will turn on the active display ? even like a small vibrate or small movement from your hand the active display from the phone itself will show up ? and also what about pants ? i mean is there any different with the material of the pants ? how thickness is the pants or if the pants is not jeans or something like that it won't shut off or will keep turn on inside the pants ?

  37. I think the clock only flashes once. If you have notifications, then it will keep flashing every now and then, but it takes very little power to do what they're doing, so it shouldn't be a concern.

  38. It doesn't really use any battery. Low power, dedicated contextual compute cores and an AMOLED display make this take virtually no power to do. You can turn it off if you really want to… but somehow, this phone is able to last for 26 hours and still have more than 25% battery available, according to Engadget during normal usage. And that's without power saver turned on.

  39. yeah, i couldn't believe it when my friend told me about this site. i know one thing for sure, i've been getting paid about $200 a week just for letting brands know what i prefer to buy. you can get it from here: bit.ly16xhOpR

  42. The proximity sensor won't waste battery because it's controlled by the ultra low power contextual progressing core of the X8 Mobile Computing System.
