By now most of you already know what the 2015 Moto G will look like , but just when you thought the torrent of Moto G leaks were over , a new one has popped up showing what appears to be one of the official press renders of the device .The Moto G 2015 - which is rumored to come in two flavors  - one a sub $179 GSM only variant and a more expensive $229-249 phone with some good specs and LTE .The basic model of the phone is said to pack a weaker Snapdragon 410 Soc and  2GB of RAM ,8GB of storage +MicroSD expansion and  a 2470mAh battery  with  the same 5" 720p IPS display derived from the second gen Moto G .The premium model ,which is rumored to carry LTE support is a completely different animal from the basic version as it is rumored to pack a 1.7Ghz Snapdragon 610 Soc with Adreno 405 Graphics  and 2GB of RAM . The display of the phone is also rumored to get a 1080p full hd upgrade while retaining the 5" display size , as for the other specs , the spec...

Personally , i find  the Motorola Moto G to be the best bang for buck smartphone right now , the phone series , which started out as a  Nokia 520 rival from Motorola became instant success story for the then Google owned company  ,although the first model came in small onboard storage sizes and no LTE , it was quickly adopted by many users who wanted a secondary phone , and based on those reviews , the phone started to gain traction among first time buyers as well , later on , Motorola announced a 4G version with a expandable memory card slot and LTE comparability . As months went by , Motorola anounced a second gen Moto G (2014) -this phone has a larger display , better cameras , front firing speakers from the Moto E and a splash resistance certification ,this followed the path of the first gen Moto G and therefore it too had only 3G ,but apparently ,Motorola has anounced  the long awaited 4G version of the phone in Brazil without any noise on the subject . Th...

Motorola's Moto G is probably one of the most iconic devices the company produced .The Budget mid range handset was partially responsible for bringing Motorola back to life after the company swapped hands . The first Motorola Moto G had a decent Snapdragon 400 processor but it lacked 4G LTE . Motorola later launched a 4G variant of that phone in the first quarter of 2014 and now it looks like Motorola is planning to pull the same card next year as well . Introducing the new Motorola Moto G 2014 (4G LTE) version . The leaked specs are apparently from Motorola Brazil's website - The specs are very much similar to past versions of the phone but some changes like a larger battery and the addition of LTE and TV bands for Latin American markets are noted in the spec sheets . The LTE model will look just like the standard GSM model but additional LTE and a bigger battery means the phone is a bit heavier than the standard model . The current GSM Model comes in a 8GB model which means t...

When Motorola launched the Moto G 2014 , many users complained that it was ill equipped as it had the same Snapdragon 400 chipset from last year , but now Motorola has some change of heart and or Business strategy (a-la Lenovo) and are said to be working on a Snapdragon 410 powered device that might ultimately replace the Motorola Moto G (2013) 4G . The current 2014 Moto G comes with 1GB of Ram and a Cortex a7 based 32Bit Snapdragon 400 Quadcore unit , this is perfectly capable of handling 4G but  the company skipped the option as the older generation Moto G received a 4G hardware refresh  a few months before the 2014 edition. So as it goes , the new phone might be a 4G capable Moto G 2014 edition which will possibly go on sale earlier next year (just my estimate) and this model will replace the 2013 4G model and it might retail for a similar price point thanks to Lenovo's new cash injection and its new business stratergy of turning Motorola profitable once again most of the o...

Although the Moto G was no flagship , the phone , which was priced just right for the average consumer is probably the most popular Motorola smartphone to date , with good midrange specs and a nice display the $179 base model was very good , but its storage was just limited , so after Lenovo took the helm of the once Google brand , the Moto G was given a MicroSD expansion slot and 4G which made the device even more interesting , but now as with any other model , the Moto G need a slight refresh , and that refresh is said to be the Motorola G2 . The Motorola G2 , like its predecessor will feature a Snapdragon 400 quad core processor like  the  original  ,the phone will also have 1GB of RAM but the display is said to be 5" and have a resolution of 720p . The rear camera is said to be  bumped up to 8 mp while the front will also upgraded to 2 mp , the storage options however are said to come with a base version of 8GB and sd cards are not mentioned in the leak , b...
