Moto G 2014 (2nd Gen)

The original Moto G in 2013 was extremely popular and Motorola's most successful smartphone to date. Which is saying a lot. It was only $179, and offered an excellent experience for those on a tight budget. Released in late 2014, the all-new Moto G (2nd Gen) is bigger, better, and has front facing speakers all for the same low price. Yes, the same price. It was released in September of 2014.

The new Moto G should be the first choice for most buyers, and is our #1 choice. It offers a 5-inch 720p HD display, Quad-core Snapdragon processor with 1GB of RAM, 8/16GB storage options, an improved 8 megapixel camera, dual front facing speakers, and 8 custom backplate colors all for $179 with no contract.
