I have bought this phone on launch day and got delivered next day noon. Flipkart takes all credit here. Note: I have used this phone for only 24 hours. About Phone: This Phone comes with 5 inch IPS display with Gorilla glass on top of that. Screen resolutions is perfect and you will feel good when you see it. It is almost like Moto g but bigger screen so that makes even more cool. I have been using this Phone without removing the screen cover motorola provide. (I will remove it soon and write about touch sensitivity in my next post). Dual Front speakers are extra ordinary and with audio settings, it is as perfect as it gets. Loud, Clear sound you can hear. Processor is same as Moto G, so if you have used moto g before then u can skip to next point. Processor is smooth and dint lag a bit till now. I have used browser to test and doing other tasks like running other apps. all is working smooth. About camera, i had a very bad experience in the beginning. I taken some pictures without flash it was working fine and i turned on flash from auto, camera was not responding. i had to re boot the phone again. After sometime, i tried taking pics with flash on and it worked (IDK how). I have reported this motorola india. Hopefully they will come up with some update. I have made a few phone calls, noise cancelling is excellent. You can hear other person's voice crystal clear. This is excellent for all. It has Micro SD card so that is advantage with google gives you option of back ups, so you never run out of memory i feel. About battery i have got decent battery juice without charging much. Again advance part of battery in Next post. that's all folks for now. Next post will definitely contains all Pros and Cons of the phone. Overall experience i fell is if this phone gets an update then it is a perfect buy with good price.

I ordered on 6th midnight and got it by 7th evening and great packing after using a few hours I can give a Brief review Pros: 1 . Awesome display quality and I would say it is as clear as a 1080p Full Hd Display 2 . Great Camera with Decent quality. 3 . Very Light in weight 4 . And the most useful upgrade u can add an Sd Card Cons: 1 . I don't know if my piece is defected or it is manufacturing defect after some usage burning or plasticky smell comes from Head Phone Jack 2 . the battery backup is low and not great as previous Moto G 3 . and the charger provided with this phone is very weak and takes a bit amount of time to charge the phone. 4 . There is no upgrade in processor or its clock speed or in RAM Hope this will help u Guys and surely it is a good product to buy.

Flipkart is rocking. Ordered sharp 12. Got it delivered by 3 PM in normal fare. Looks are Stunning. More sleek. Improved Speakers in front. Front camera is grt.

Brilliant Display 5, OS- Waiting for Android L update 6. Expandable memory - Additional advantage 7. Battery Life is longer than Moto g. Finally 2 words "Simply SUPERB"

When moto g 1st gen was launched, i was really excited. I thought God finally answered my prayers by intoducing a budget smart phone with all the excellent features i wanted, which no other phone could beat. But then came the dampener, when i looked at the storage feature: Moto g had only 12.9 GB of storage, which will never be enough for my huge music collection. So i was really dissappointed. Last Friday, when the moto g 2nd gen was launched, i was extremely happy! Finally i got my moto g with a memory card slot! This is now one of my most prized posessions! The moto g 2 is really awesome! Some of the Pros and Cons that I found are listed below. Pros: - Big 5" screen. - Quad core procesor - micro sd card support. - 12.9 GB of internal memory, would be more than enough for all the apps. - 8 MP rear and 2 MP front camera. - Latest Android and guaranteed upgrade to L - Light, handy, rugged and beautiful look, it will be everybody's eye candy! - Gorilla Glass protects the phone from scratches. - flash support and secondary camera - 3G support on both sims Cons: - micro sim (It was difficult to get a micro sim, so I had to take the risk and cut the mini sim in a local mobile store. - Non-removable battery - 1 GB RAM ( moto could have increased it to atleast 1.5 GB) but it does't affect the performance. - Battery backup not so impressive. It gives average battery life. But The Android L OS is expected to increase the battery backup, so keep your fingers crossed! - FM radio not playable through the speakers: I have seen many users complaing that the FM radio cannot be payed on the loud speakers. Here's a solution to play FM radio via speakers: Download the app HF button from the Play store and voila! your problem's solved! Cheers! - Raghav

I have been using the motog2 version for over a month now.. I would give a review on the following points Display-Fairly good and no distortion in pixels observed even when the phone is held up close to the eye.it is also water resistant and with gorilla glass 3 no effect of scratches or drops i dropped it twice accidently bt nthng happened :) Battery backup-fairly good although it would last longer as the android l update would add juice to it.could have been better though. Multitasking-Good, can open a lot of apps on background although some heavy duty apps like asphalt 8 were observed to crash or restart which are common though.frankly I have not found a phone with zero app crashes. dont know if 2gb ram would have been better. Memory-This is where it kills everybody 16gb of storage with expandable storage of 32gb and an otg feature is a super memory u can carry around anywhere. Camera-shoots good photos,hdr, panorama, has a timer as well shoots 720p videos and slow motion videos as well and not 1080p as some other ppl mentioned. Software-pretty much stock android with no file explorer but u can always install third party apps which work seamlessly and the most important feature is that it will receive android l update any time soon which is a great feature as it comes with enhanced battery power and material design.plays 720p videos normally and can play 1080p with help of apps like mx player Sound-headphones are bad go for other headphones which give superior sound performance on the phone like sony or sennheiser i bought the later and sound quality on the motog2 dual stereo speakers is also loud so u can easily watch videos listen to songs and set loud alarms in the morning :) Overall-good phone good price established brand name go for it.

First of all : I am reviewing a replacement device and Flipkart did a good job on delivering both. Pros : 1. 5" Screen offers a great viewing experience, colors are bright and brightness is very good. 2. The dual front speakers are not very loud but get's the job done very well. 3. Micro SD is a nice add on atleast in the Indian market. 4. The latest and the greatest android, also the promise to get the fastest update. 5. Price : A thousand buck less than its predecessor , Motorola nailed it. 6. Availability : Unlike some of the other affordable offerings Motorola has been great in availability. A device is great when you can actually buy it. 7. Build Quality is in similar lines with the previous generation, which by every means is great. Cons : 1. WIFI Issues : The fact that wifi is latest here, is great but there is a catch. It happens it does not support some access points/router authentication types which generally other devices does. This was why I replaced it in the first place. But in the replacement device the problems were same, then I did some digging, the fact it is 802.11 b/g/n/ac compatible but the authentication type it is compatible is very limited, i.e. WEP(bit encryption m not sure), WPA/WPA2 (this worked for me). and 802.1X Radius. That's it. If your router has some other it will not detect it even. 2. Size : This may not be a problem for some but yes this thing has grown up huge since its predecessor. 3. Battery : 2070 mah used to power 4.5, same is used to power 5.0 , the math is simple here, with not a good outcome. 4. Buttons : This time buttons have a soft touch feel to it. I am not sure about how it feels but the response of the click is certainly not tactile as it had previously. Overall, Cons other than wifi issues should not have been here considering what we get and what we pay. Recommended : 8/10

Awesome is the one word I would use if someone asks me about the phone. I bought a white one and it looks stunning and the phone has good finish.I have used my friends old Moto G which was much better than my samsung Y duos and the new Moto G feels amazing with its upgrades. But the 2nd gen Moto G isn't that good when we compare the screen resolution and picture clarity, with the old one. . Another major concern is the battery. Moto G with the screen size of 4.5 inch had 2070 mah, which was the one of the drawbacks of the phone. Atleast now they should have used 2500 mah battery for the 5inch new moto G, but they have used the same 2070 mah battery. So I should spend another 1000-1500Rs on a power bank. The company should have focused on the internal specs, but the budget remains the same as in the old moto G-Rs12999. So this has overshadowed all the minor cons. Asus zenfone 5, Xiaomi Mi3...... may look better than Moto G with its advanced specs but the chinese mobiles wont last long. Also I dont want to buy a chinese product and boost their economy and most importantly, I read in an article that the Xiaomi mobiles aren't secured. So in the end Moto G is the best pick in the under 15K category even with its limited specs.
