I like mine simple and stick with this layout all the time. I just added one screen so I can have the full size two screen Google wallpapers

I absolutely LOVE the Moto Z Play. I moved to the Moto Z Play from a Nexus 6P and it's seriously a night and day difference! As you've probably heard over the internet, the best part about the Moto Z Play is the battery life, which is out of this world. This is the first phone I've ever owned where I don't have any sort of battery anxiety, if that makes sense. It's nice that I don't have to charge it in the middle of the day, I don't have to carry around a portable battery bank, and more. My average usage looks like the attached screenshots. Other aspects of the Moto Z Play that I enjoy are: the wonderful build quality, as well as the fact that the UI is buttery smooth and performance is great, despite the fact that it's not rocking the latest and greatest Snapdragon 820 / 821 processor. My only downside is the fact that the camera isn't Nexus 6P quality, but it's good enough for my usage.

I'm on Cricket and I knew that I wanted a Moto Z Play from the reviews and playing with it at the Verizon store, but it was at least a month before the GSM model was supposed to be released and I knew I didn't want a Verizon model. What I did was I ordered a unlocked model from the UK for about $375 shipped from Clove.co.uk. The UK model supports all of the major GSM / LTE bands (unlike the US GSM model which was missing key bands for AT&T at launch) used by AT&T and T-Mobile. I'd say to go that route if at all possible. You're saving a chunk of change from the US GSM unlocked model.

In memory and appreciation of Cyanogenmod (7/1/2009 - 12/25/2016) I dug out a Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 and put CM14.1 Nougat 7.1.1 on it. Runs beautifully for a 2012 device.

It's really interesting how a new icon pack, wallpaper, widget, and slightly tweaked icon layout completely changes the look and feel of a setup, even if it's fundamentally similar to the old setup. This time I'm using the beautiful icon pack called Bold, and the Pixel Pill Widget Pro instead of the Zooper Widget. I'm absolutely IN LOVE with this setup. The icons POP.

Finally got tired of the pixel launcher and am now using Nova with my settings from the Nexus. The funny thing is they both are kind of the same but now I can double tap to search instead of opening the drawer.

Xperia X Compact with Nova Launcher Pro...I use this phone as much as my iPhone 7 and it has a decent stereo audio recorder which I miss on the iPhone.

Any place but here or there....
Some wonderful screens here. My Moto Z Play with Nova Launcher and Bold icons.

I never liked having lots of icons cover the wallpaper on my iPhones, and am very happy to minimize the Google search bar too. I find that so fugly.
