i started using them since i first experienced it in the hospital.
i started with the FLOW, and later on upgraded to the pull spring ones for the looks.
neither of them have major issues for the 5 years i used it. but here are few things to keep in mind:
1. the material used aren't what you come to expect for a 300 dollar MSRP. if you use to kohler or something like that, be prepared to be disappointed big time.
2. the water line is downgraded on the pull spring ones vs the flow version. the flow version had steel braided hose and the pull spring ones is just hose. i do think this is a big issue in the long term because the pulling motion will kink the hose.
3. while you can turn off the motion activation by turning the switch on the controller box, don't. the manual specifically said do not use manual mode for long period of time. this is because the entire control box is plastic, and the hose out of the controller box isn't pressure rated (not steel braided). normally the on/off switch is at the inlet of the control box so the box and the line after the box isn't subjected to main pressure, turning it in manual mode means the entire box and the line after it is subjected to the main pressure. doing it for long period of time is a disaster in making.
On most, it can be turned off. It's a very limited range from the sensor that activates the faucet. So rarely would it ever turn on falsely, at least in my experience. Extremely helpful when you have dirty hands. I don't have this specific model but my friend has one by flow very similar and everytime I use it I never have an issue.
i feel like i would hate having motion sensor activated. can you turn that feature off?

I have the one pictured on this post. it's awesome. a friend of mine who's a plumber told me to avoid motion sensing faucets so went with the classic series. i recommend it. super high quality

Is that the $59 one and does it have motion sensor?

You can, but we love having the motion sensor; it's really nice when your hands are dirty and you don't want to touch the handle. You quickly get used to doing it all the time. The only "problem" we've ever had is that sometimes water that got on the faucet body drips down over the sensor and might trigger it.
The $75 one doesn't have motion sensor, though, so you can save $15-25 going with that model (or the $60 one if you like that style).

Flow 770 vs Flow X...is one of them the newer/better one?
I've had both and hated the X. When the X went on sale for $100 sometime in the past year, I decided to get it and replace our 770 (which was working fine) with it and move the 770 into the laundry room. I guess I kinda liked the look of the X a little better, but the handle was a PITA to turn using your wrist or elbow. That might seem silly to say, but when your hands are dirty or soapy and you want to change the temp on faucet, you don't necessarily want to have to grip the handle with your dirty/soapy hands. We were so used to being able to easily change temp with a simple nudge that using the X was a non-starter. The shape of the handle doesn't give you the leverage to do it.

Never knew bio-bidet makes kitchen faucet... any good?
We have an original Flow - from before Bemis / Bio-Bidet bought them - and a newer one. As far as I can tell, they are identical except for the branding on the faucet body. The originally just has "FLOW" on it, while the newer one has "FLOW" in the same place, same font and size, but with an added "by Bemis" in tiny letters underneath. Maybe the internals are different, but they don't appear to be.

We love ours.... You can turn it off. It also turns itself off after so many seconds, to minimize wasted water.

Well, there is a bypass on the mixer body which bypasses the sensor, so yes.
