  • Motorola's Moto G is the best budget smartphone around. At £135 it's got great build quality, an excellent screen, decent cameras and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean soon to be upgrade to 4.4 KitKat.>> Read on…Pages123Tags:Smartphones,Gadgets,Christmas Buying Guid...

  • These two handsets are both great, evenly matched for storage and performance. We expect that no-one would be disappointed with the purchase of either. The Moto G is bigger and bulkier but has a bigger screen. You will, however, notice the extra money you...

  • I have really enjoyed reviewing the Moto G as it has really surprised me by just how brilliant it is, and at £119 for the 8GB version it has to be considered a must buy for tech fans or people who are still looking to venture into the smartphone market f...

  • So much tech for your cash, Good performance, Jazzed-up design
  • A Moto G4 downgrade in some ways
  • The Motorola Moto G is one of the best phones of the year, and the first time we've seen a phone of this calibre launch at under £200 SIM-free. That it's so much cheaper than £200 is a minor miracle. This phone deserves to sell by the bucketload.Next, rea...

  • Camera isn't great; No microSDsupport; Limited onboard memory; No 4G connectivity
  • Excellent value for money; Great display; Vanilla Android 4.4; Quick software updates; Changeable back covers; 50GB of Google Drive storage;
  • For £130 nothing else comes close to the Moto G. It offers excellent performance, all day battery life and it runs the latest version of Google's Android platform, KitKat. It's not perfect but you won't find anything better at this price....

  • In conclusion I think the Moto G is an amazing phone, for the price of course. Tesco mobile are selling the 16GB model for £129.99 which if used sensibly could last you for ages. I'm going to pick one up for use as a holiday phone or for interim periods b...

  • The Moto G hits hard for a handset of this price. It has a great screen and a responsive interface; you'd almost forget it's a budget phone. The camera and storage are always there to remind you of its caste, but otherwise it's a rare feat for an entry-le...
