  • The 5-inch Motorola Moto G once again turns in its signature hand-friendly design and hardware specs that impress for the price
  • In LTE markets, the Moto G's absence of the fast data standard is a drag
  • Motorola's new Moto G exemplifies the budget Android phone, but if you prefer your data LTE-flavored, it's best to wait for that model....

  • Solid 4G battery life in a compact size, with almost two days of juice; Nice screen; Comfy design; Insanely up-to-date version of Android; Upgradeable storage;
  • Mediocre camera with slow auto-focus; System performance can lag sometimes;
  • It's not the cheapest Motorola out there, but in terms of performance, the Moto G 4G ticks quite a few boxes, offering a great screen, fast 4G speeds, and impressive battery life.There's some pretty solid competition between this and Kogan's BenQ-powered ...

  • The Moto G isn't perfect, but it's the best phone we've used in its price range. It's smooth, faster than the competition, takes decent photos and even looks pretty nice. Even if you don't like the look you can grab any one of a bunch of Moto Shells, whic...
