Moto G in India is dual sim variant with 1.2GHz Qualcomm snapdragon 400 processor and 1 GB of ram. 4.5 inch display with 720x1280 screen resolution gives pixel density of 329 ppi which is similar to iphone5s gives you wonderful display. Reading ebooks or browsing webpages is fantastic and text is absolutely crisp. It has a gorilla glass 3, which is scratch resistant and also been coated with water repellant nano-coating. Though Motorola official isn’t named it water resistant, you could find in youtube that it survived few minutes in a water bowl. It doesn’t support external memory card. If you are a gamer, then better prefer a 16GB variant as 8GB variant only gives 5.52GB available to user and some games are even above 1GB of size. Also if you are gamer, Adreno 305 GPU used in Moto G gives you best performance in its prize range. Its 5MP camera is kind of disappointment, but considering prices of 12.5k and 14k, I am satisfied with camera. Camera interface is simple to use and touching anywhere on screen takes a snap. If you are bored of regular black color covers, Moto G has an option of colored back panels. Though it is plastic you can feel a soft coating on back panel which gives you a feel of premium smartphone in your hands. 2070mAh battery is enough to get through for more than 2days for normal use and also it is highest capacity you could get at such price in android mobiles. Moto G has a physical LED notification light at top which blinks for any notifications, messages, and missed calls. Motorola has provided latest Andriod version 4.4.2 KitKat update for this device and has promised all newer updates to Moto G for 15 months. I saw the KitKat update improved some performances like usage of less Ram. Before I updated to kitkat, free ram was to be like 200MB and after updating about 400MB Ram is available which helps you more in multi-tasking. The new feature which is available after KitKat update for Indian Moto G is that it supports OTG option. That is you can access a Pen-drive from your mobile. It played HD movie from a Pendrive so easily without a glitch as like I’m playing it in a laptop. So it gives you added benefit of not storing everything on your Moto G. Moto G after Kitkat update also supports cloud printing for HP printers. I have been using Moto G since Feb 12 and there is absolutely no lag. It has 1.3MP front cam for video calling and also wifi, which are slowly becoming mandatory specs while we are buying mobiles. It doesn’t support 4G LTE and NFC feature, however for now, in India these are not a problem at all. Motorola has seriously compromised on profit margins and made profit by selling more units. I believe Moto G is a game changer. Even after 4 months after the Moto G launch, there is not even a single international branded android mobile to give Moto G a fight even at Rs20, 000/-. If your budget is in between 10k to 20k, go for Moto G without a second thought.
