Hi.
I've been using Cyanogenmod since Android 2.3.
Back in 2013 i had a Moto G 16gb (falcon), which display cracked due to human error. Bought a Moto E (condor) as a full display assembly replacement wasn't cost-effective for me. Even though Condor was pretty basic, it was overall a nice phone for Work and School for 2 years, and Cyanogenmod was an awesome system for it.
I managed to get a brand new U.S.A. Moto G CDMA for pretty cheap $200 MXN ($11 USD), as it can't be used in México, and swapped the full display assembly, battery, and back cover to my old Moto G and replaced my Condor with my brand new "old" Moto G.
So far, this G has been awesome for my everyday duty since a year ago and also Cyanogenmod 13 is flawless.
This week, I decided to buy a Moto G 2015 (osprey) for $2800 MXN (pretty cheap too). It's a 16Gb, 1Gb RAM, Dual SIM variant XT1543.
Well, this story is nothing but the prelude to my questions.
1) Is the Osprey screen uglier than the Falcon? It seems colors are yellower, and blacks are grayer. Also, seems to have a grainy screen.
2) Cyanogenmod 13 (falcon) vs Stock ROM (Osprey) GUI seems pretty different. I am really used to CM, and using the stock ROM seems like a down-grade to me.
3) It seems like Falcon has lots more dev than Osprey or at least seems like there's more activity on Falcon forums (Maybe i am wrong?).
4) When I checked Cyanogenmod 13 bugs for Osprey, seems to have lots more bugs than Falcon even though Falcon is older?
I feel like a bad decision was made in buying Osprey. Besides bigger screen (and duller), and better cameras, bigger battery, there's nothing else to upgrade from a Falcon to a Osprey
. My living in México has been always trying to achieve maximum efficiency with less effort, in most aspects of life.
Thanks for your inputs.
