Brilliant display

The price. In terms of bang for $200 bucks
This thing can't be beat. It feels so much better than you'd expect for a phone this cheap (and unlocked). The software is recent enough
And should be caught up to Android 4.4 (KitKat) in the very near future

Camera is below average
Comes only in 8GB and 16GB variants without SD card slot
Average build
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 3G radio is pretty much a deal-breaker
Especially if you're coming from a 4G device. The camera is incredibly bad. The screen is sharp but bland. The $180 version only has 8GB of storage. The Android OS takes up about 3GB of storage
Leaving you only
Lack of 4G LTE connectivity
No expandable memory

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...
Good, Excellent pricing, Runs Android 4.4.2, the most recent version, Decent specs for the price
Non-expandable storage, Average camera performance
What makes the Moto G special is the fact that it is one of a very small number of devices running the latest version of Android, and one of the only ones priced this low to be doing so.The Moto G scores heavily in terms of style and substance, and our on...
Abstract: Google partners with Motorola to bring us the Moto G, smooth going and easy to carry but maybe a bit heavy in the hands. The screen might be smaller than most other smartphones you see today in the market but for the value, nothing else comes close! The m...
A Google phone for the masses. At long last. Nothing like the enigmatic Nexus, drip-fed through the Play Store, attractively priced but hard-to-get.OK, go ahead and call the Moto G the poor man's Nexus. Just don't call it cheap. For what it has to offer...

If youre on a carrier contract, then no. If data speed is important to you, then no. If a good camera is important to you, then no. If you can afford to spend $350 on your phone, then no. You should get the Nexus 5 instead, which is $350 off-contract and...
Abstract: If you're anything like me, it's a subpar, low-level experience you wouldn't wish upon your worst enemy. That connotation exists for a reason: Smartphones that cost less than $200 off-contract have traditionally been pretty pitiful devices -- junky old ph...
