The key differences are a bump up in screen size (from 4.5-inches to 5-inches) and the fact that this unit's gone back to the original Moto G's dual-SIM 3G arrangement; you only get HSDPA+ speeds, not 4G. Otherwise the internals are largely the same — a...

It's rare to see a budget phone with a screen this size, so the fact that Motorola has kept the price down to £145 SIM-free is outstanding. It's a shame the new phone is only available in 3G; if you want a 4G Moto G, you'll have to buy the old version (cu...

Big phones are in, and to go with that trend, Motorola is upgrading one of its entry-level handsets, increasing the screen size of its G series phone to make it a sub-$300 5 inch handset, but is the G2 better or just a bigger version of the same?In the ne...

Moto G 2nd Gen 2014 Review...

Motorola announced the original Moto G in November last year and it ended up becoming one of the greatest phones of 2013 thanks to its performance, lovely design and, perhaps most importantly, a budget £135 price tag. It was a game-changer in the smartph...
Brilliant price, good display, improved camera, good battery life, great performance in this class...
No 4G , no NFC, bulkier design from larger screen format, average sound, frontfacing speaker bar design...
The price was the key to the original Moto G's success and we suspect it will be a similar story for the 2014 model too. For £150 you get a lot for your money, including a decent display, very good battery life, ample performance and an improved cam...
