In the same room comparing my iPhone 5 with my new Moto X, I get ~78dBm signal on the iPhone and ~97dBm on the Moto X. Is the Moto X reception just that much worse than the iPhone, or should I contact Verizon to see about getting a replacement?

Same network type?

No. iPhone was 3G and X was LTE. Wasn't thinking when I posted this, but soon figured it out. That explains it all. I wish I could turn off LTE on the X just to compare the same signal types, but I can't figure out how...
Oh well, thanks for helping!

Why was the iPhone 5 only connecting to 3G? It is capable of handling the 4G LTE network on Verizon Wireless.
As for the network level on the Moto X, that is a decent signal for LTE. It isn't the greatest, but it certainly isn't the worst.

It was only connecting to 3G because it was my old phone before I got the Moto X. I activated the Moto X, so the LTE on the iPhone 5 doesn't connect anymore.

The only thing with that is the iPhone 5 shouldn't have even a signal after you activated the Moto X The SIM cad should have been moved to the Moto X since they are the same size or if it moved wasn't then the old card was deactivated and won't work.

Nope.! Sorry to differ but The Moto X takes a Nano Sim Ann.. not the Micro Sim as we've come accustomed to) It and the new Ultra's are equipped with this new Card but his or her iPhone 5 should be able to work if they have Wi-Fi available.. The data part of it! b33

Like Ann154 said, the SIM card should have been moved to the Moto X since both the iPhone 5 and the Moto X use a nano SIM card.

I wouldn't have suggested that the SIM card be moved from one phone to the other if I wasn't sure about the size.
In either case, the old SIM card should have been deactivated.
