Motorola Moto G Moto G4 14 cm (5.5") Android 6.0.1 4G Micro-USB 2 GB 16 GB 3000 mAh Black :
Life moves fast. Move faster.
Moto G is built for your fast-paced, media-enhanced life.

- Octa-core processor: runs multiple apps at the same time without slowing down. Plus, powerful graphics capabilities support rich 3D images.
- 5.5" Full HD display: Photos look sharp and lifelike, while videos and games jump off the screen.
- Expandable memory: You can easily add up to 128 GB more through an optional microSD card.

A battery that lasts
Moto G is designed to last a full day and then some, thanks to a 3000 mAh battery.¹

Charge at the speed of life
Give your phone a quick energy boost. TurboPower™ (charger sold separately) gives your Moto G up to 6 hours of power in just 15 minutes of charging.

A faster phone. A pure experience.
Boost performance by running a pure, clutter-free version of Android.™ With no unnecessary software to slow you down, Moto G runs faster.

All-new design. Same great comfort.
With a streamlined design that fits nicely in your pocket, it is our thinnest Moto G yet. Rounded edges and a micro-texture back make it easy to grip, so you can use it comfortably with just one hand.

Notifications at a glance
Moto Display gives you a simple preview of notifications and updates, so you don’t have to unlock your phone. Just nudge your phone to see what’s new. You can even play or pause music without unlocking your phone.

Act and your phone reacts
Moto Actions responds to your motions and gestures. Simply twist your wrist to open the camera. Two chops downward turns on a flashlight. Pick up a ringing phone and it will switch to vibrate.

Speaking of helpful: Google Voice Search™
Don’t waste time typing. Simply say “OK Google,” or tap the Google Voice Search app, and then talk to find the nearest coffee shop, send a text, get directions, and more.

Professional looking photos are a snap
You don’t have to be a pro to take professional-quality pictures. Moto G features a camera with great hardware including 13 MP resolution, dual LED flash, large ƒ/2.0 aperture which helps with photos on cloudy days.

Just shoot. Let the software do the rest.
Quick Capture lets you launch the rear camera with two twists of your wrist. Best Shot captures multiple shots before and after you touch the screen. Then it recommends the best picture to keep. Professional Mode gives you ultimate control with manual settings you’d expect to find on a great digital camera.

Great group shots and selfies
The wide-angle lens gets everyone in the picture. And at 5 MP resolution, pictures look great.

Motorola launched the Moto G back in 2013. It was a smartphone that cost just $179 outright and unlocked. It single-handedly changed the smartphone industry. Since the Moto G launched in 2013, we've seen many other manufacturers attempting to compete with...

Battery Life: For a smartphone of this price, the battery life is pretty phenomenal, Cost: For what you get out of the Moto G4, a starting price of $199 (or $229 for double the storage) is definitely not bad at all, Camera: While not everyone will agree t...
Snapdragon 617: While it is a nice upgrade from the Snapdragon 410 that was in last year's Moto G, the Snapdragon 617 still could use some work. Especially when it comes to overheating, Micro USB: This may not have been a big surprise to many people, but...
The Moto G has been Motorola's most successful lineup, ever. And that's due to the value you get for such little cash. It has done well in emerging markets like India and Brazil and the new Moto G4 (as well as the Moto G4 Plus) will likely continue that...

Little Brother. We liked the Moto G4 Plus, and now we can review the slightly slimmed-down Moto G4. What are the differences?...

Put the Moto G4 and the Moto G4 Plus next to each other, and you will only be able to differentiate the two models by the fingerprint scanner. The inner values of the two smartphones are also very similar and only details are different, but they might be...

Moto G4 Review: Motorola and Lenovo's Moto G4 is one of two new Moto G phones for 2016 (the other being the Moto G4 Plus ), and at just £169 the Moto G is the cheaper of the pair. Offering Full HD visuals, a 13-megapixel camera, personalised design and so...

Three years ago, Motorola gave smartphone shoppers an affordable new budget option in the form of the first-gen Moto G . In the years since, we've seen the Moto G really grow up, in more ways than one. Not only has the Moto G grown from a 4.5-incher to i...

Let's not waste time. These are good phone and represent solid options, but these Motos now face substantially more competition from other companies looking to shake up the entry and mid-range markets. We'll be tackling both the Moto G4 and the G4 Plus in...

These are great little phones. In 2016 Moto doesn't deliver quite the impact they once did when they were one of the only manufacturers offering a high quality experience at such a low price, but we're happy to see how competitive this generation has...

At this point in time, I don't think the Moto G line needs any introduction. With the original Moto G in 2013 Motorola really went beyond what was thought to be possible in a mid-range smartphone. At that point in time, buying a $200 smartphone usually me...

At first glance the chassis of the Moto G4 seems to represent an upgrade over the 2015 model. It's thinner, and at least in my view the slightly rubbery feeling plastic back feels nicer than the hard plastic shell from the 2015 Moto G. However, Motorola h...

Although the ‘4' designation isn't official, Motorola's recently released Moto G and Moto G Plus represent the fourth generation of the smartphone, long held to be one of the best mid-range smartphone deals on the market. And, that's exactly what these tw...

Motorola has had a strange couple of years. It was making some interesting, though mediocre phones, then it was acquired by Google. Then, it started making great phones. Before we could truly enjoy the new Motorola, the company was sold off to Chinese meg...

Design Grippy back with a dimple. Removable covers and Moto Maker customizations are appreciated too, Performance Handles general smartphone tasks without issue, Battery life Well over a day of usage, almost two days with lighter usage, Display A great 5.

The Moto G4 continues to offer an excellent value at $200. The specs have gotten a nice bump this year with the Snapdragon 617 (up from a 410) and 2GB of RAM in the base model (1GB last year). It's not the fastest phone, and the camera isn't the greatest...
