From a distance
The Moto G looks identical to the attractive Moto X. Get up close
And it still does. Though it's simply a plastic shell
It's rigid and attractively curved to make it look thinner than its 11.6mm
With a minimal bezel. Best of all
It's customisable too
There are more than 15 different cases you can snap on the back
And we're actually rather taken with the coloured ones we too

The editors didn't like
Nonexpandable memory
No 32 GB model for multimedia lovers
Sound quality from speaker
Mediocre camera (video stills)
Lack of LTE
Small memory
3G-only model lacks microSD
Mediocre camera
The camera isn't up to anything more than the odd snap in good lighting
And the addition of 4G LTE means its once "unbelievable bargain" price is now only "good value"
No 4G connectivity
Average camera and no micro SD card slot.
Poor camera
Low internal storage
Extra cost for microSD and 4G
Limited onboard storage

Unusual camera focus

Non
Stereo front speaker
Out of the box
The Moto G runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean
Leaving it ever so slightly behind the curve
As the Nexus line of Google devices (which
Confusingly
The Google-owned Motorola doesn't make) have been updated to Android 4.4 KitKat
Which adds tighter Google Now integration
Better multitasking and more. This in itself is only a minor issue
Great value, Decent screen, Slick interface, Android 4.4
Poor camera, No expandable memory, Low internal storage, No NFC or 4G
Motorola is back folks, it's official. It may not be the return I would have predicted - there's no flagship phone stuffed full of the latest tech - but arguably what the now Google-owned firm has done is even better. The Moto G is a top notch, low cost ...
Under Google's watch Motorola has managed to deliver one of the best value-for-money smartphones on the market today. It is wonderfully styled, has powerful innards and offers the money-saving advantages of a dual-SIM smartphone...

Launched with Android 4.3, already received Android 4.4.2, Penta-band GSM and quad-band UMTS; supports just about every network except 4G, Feels good. Looks good. Great size, Battery life can be measured in days
Lack of 4G; I understand why it's not there, but I still want it, Screen can lack a bit of brightness; turn off auto and set it manually, Very occasional stutter when switching apps, Hardware
If you hadn't figured it out from reading the rest of my review, I'll sum it up for you nice and simply: the Moto G is a shining example of what a sub-$300 Android phone should look like. Hell, it does a good job of demonstrating what a sub-$500 Android p...
Design and overall build quality, Silky performance, Battery life, HD display clarity, Basically pure android, , THE
No expandable storage, Standard rear shell, Screen comes off as dull at times
In parts of this review I've compared the Moto G to bigger, and virtually more powerful devices in every respect, and that's because for this money, there's nothing else in its price range currently on the market that compares to it. Yes it does suffer f...

Abstract: I've never been quick to switch from a technology that worked for me. Until last January, when I somewhat nervously upgraded to the large-sized Nexus 6P, I was quite satisfied to stick with my aging, 4.7-in. Moto X (yes, the original version).So I can ver...
The third generation Moto G has certainly been impressive despite the specs not being the best of the lot. Moto G promises a good user experience and it more than delivers on that front. For someone looking at a decent mid-range phone with a long-lasting...

Abstract: When it comes to smartphones, there was a time when cheap really meant shitty. That's no longer true. But which cheap phones are worth buying? I found two.Like many of you, I used to be sucked into the endless black hole that was crazy expensive smartphon...
Abstract: Taller and wider than its predecessor, the new Moto G has a 5-inch display with 1280x720p resolution. The display is bright and legible, even under sunlight. The phone is equipped with an 8MP camera with flash, compared with the average 5 MP camera in the...
Abstract: Motorola isn't on IFA this year but that didn't stop the future Lenovo subsidiary from announcing its long-awaited Moto X and Moto G second generation smartphones and the rounded Moto 360 smartwatch running Android Wear. We were live at the event and are ...
