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

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

Moto G is the best phone you can get if you are looking for a mid-range device. There isn't a better choice in the sub - $250 price bracket and the main thing is it can even beat some of the high-end devices when it comes to gaming and general performance...
The Moto G is currently the only budget handset to run Kitkat. It offers snappy user experience, and excellent multimedia performance. Moreover, it's a handy phone with a sharp HD IPS screen. On the other hand, its camera is disappointing. True, the phon...
It is definitely the best budget Android smartphone in the market and with regular updates and more new variants, long it may stay. No memory expansion is a letdown though....

Abstract: In 2013, four out of every 10 smartphones sold in the world were priced below $200 (approximately Rs 12,500), according to IDC . Shocking as it may sound, there is not a single Android smartphone in this price segment that stands out. Most smartphone vend...
There is no software features on the interface as this is a Google phone. So you have to customise this yourself to make Moto G a real ‘SmartPhone’. The lack of microSD card support, nonremovable battery & up to 720p video recording capabilities are also
The handset comes powered by the same hardware that is used on the Galaxy Grand 2. Price wise the Moto G definitely has an advantage. The camera could have been a little better but it is not that bad. There are many other things that make it a very good b...
Abstract: Tech enthusiasts the world over had been long waiting for Motorola to pick up the pieces and come back into the smartphone arena with a bang. And the tech giant did just that - first with the Moto X and then with the Moto G, hoping to grab chunks of the s...
Excellent price to performance ratio, Good battery life, Well built, Good display, Stock Android UI
Thick and heavy for its size, Non expandable storage, Low spec camera
By far, this has been one of the best smartphones that one can buy on this budget. Simple looks, respectable specifications and a competitive price; Motorola has really done it right this time. But sadly, it is the only smartphone that the company has lau...
