Is the lollipop ambient display supposed to wake the phone up when you pick it up like Moto display does? Mine doesn't.
Mine neither...ambient display behavior is weird....doesn`t work quite well. Maybe is an L bug...
Ambient Display will not turn ur screen on when u pick it up. It only lights the area where the notification came in on lock screen.
that's pretty lame. i like the look of it more than moto display, but if it doesn't light up when i pick up the phone it's worthless.
It does this to conserve battery.
Yeah but I've read that ambient display uses a lot more battery than the Moto Display because Ambient Display uses the Snapdragon Processor while Moto Display doesnt so Moto Display is more battery efficient lets say .... I havent tried it myself to be honest.
Moto Display knows when you reach for the phone because of the four infrared sensors in the corners. I heard that activating Ambient Display deactivates those sensors, so the phone doesn't know you're reaching for it.
