  • There's something very compelling about the Moto G, despite my initial thoughts that I'd have little to say about it. Certainly, the Moto G won't take your breath away, but that's mostly the point – it's not meant to. Instead, the Moto G is supposed to...

  • Sturdy build, Supersharp and vibrant 720p screen, Smooth performance, Superb value for money
  • Nonexpandable storage, Average looks
  • Looked upon in isolation, the Moto G is just another phone. Let's face it, it's not going to change the world as you know it. It won't bring about world peace and it won't mend your broken heart. Heck, its plain Jane looks mean you won't even be able to f...

  • The Moto G is a budget Android smartphone done right, finding success in a number of levels starting with suitable performance across the OS. The Snapdragon 400 SoC is surprisingly powerful, and when combined with a skin-free Android build, it was able to...

  • It is understandable that the Moto G gets a lot of interest from people who want a good and simple phone at a great price. The industrial design is simple and super-cute and I just wished that it was lighter. On the other hand, its shape feels very good i...

  • Abstract:  The Motorola Moto G is a budget smartphone. While it makes some compromises for its lower price, it doesn't compromise build quality. One such concession is its 4.5-inch HD 720p resolution screen. It isn't as bright or dynamic as other phones, but it stil...
