I have the 2013 G and recently upgraded to the 2013 X. The surface area is pretty much the same between the 2, but the X has a display that is bigger because it doesn't have as much bezel as the X. You don't notice it going from the G to the X but you do going from the X to the G (as I learned last night when I turned on the G for the first time in a week or so).
The X is thinner and lighter - I really notice this when holding it in landscape mode.
To me the '13 X is the perfect size as I don't want a bigger display and I love it's thin-ness. I also love the additional functionality but I'm still new to it so I have a fair bit to learn.
The HSPA+ on the G made it fairly quick for internet stuff, but there were places it would definitely be dog-slow. The 4G on the X is pretty much wifi speed all the time so definitely no going back for me.
I'm not a gamer so I can't provide any insight on that. Battery life seems pretty equal between the 2 - no complaints for either of them.
No experience on the '14 version of either so I got nothing on that front.
So wait, you're saying the the 2013 G = 2013 X wrt battery life? Could you please confirm if possible? Like what is the equivalent battery drain on both the phones if watching a video/ playing a game/ browsing?
