Motorola Launched The Moto G In India - The Exceptional Phone for the Masses

Motorola Inc. was an American Multinational telecommunication company. Earlier Motorola was really famous with its phone called MOTO-RAZR which was launched in back 2003. Later, with the increasing competition and new launch of smart phones Motorola lost its charm somewhere. Then, when it faced loses and it got split into Motorola mobility and Motorola solutions. Shortly after this split, Google, the pioneer developer of Android itself, announced in August 2011 that they would acquire Motorola Mobility for US$12.5 billion, subject to regulatory approval. This deal was closed in May 2012, after which they have to sell their set-top box business to Arris Group. With the latest news which is coming in the telecom market is that Google is selling Motorola's smartphone business to Lenovo for $2.9 billion. Additionally, with this Motorola has lost nearly $2 billion since Google took over. This loss seams really huge and gave company to face huge damages. Previously Google recovered some of the money that it spent on Motorola by selling its set-top operations last year to Arris Group Inc. for $2.35 billion. Still with all these ciaos and hassle, Motorola has launched Moto G in India in a hope that this affordable Android phone can capture the attention of the target audiences and can bring some luck to the company.

In late-2013, Motorola launched two new smartphones, the Moto X and Moto G in USA. But in India it is launched recently at an amazing price range of Rs. 12,499. As per the company, Moto G is launched for the masses. It’s a low-cost smart phone which looks great and it is available at very affordable cost. In today’s post, we will find out how it is an “exceptional phone at exceptional price”.

The very first thing that Motorola claimed about its phone is a 4.5” of sharp HD edge to edge display, but it is not entirely accurate there are some bezels just around the corners of the phone rest the image quality is great and with such price offer it falls under the best category if compared with same price range i.e. only $179.

One thing which is really fascinating is its back cover. The quality of back cover is really substantial. Although the phone’s front panel is black but the back panels comes with 7 different color options. Today where even iPhone 5c came with colored panels, Moto G gives quite a competition when it comes to the panel quality. In this, you can switch to one of the many colorful back covers that the company is offering.

No doubt, display quality is the strength of this product. With the given price range, it offers an amazing picture quality of 1280x720p HD resolution and 329ppi pixel density where other companies like Samsung and Sony lacks to offer such resolution at this incredible price range. The screen quality is really good and with screen size of 4.5” it doesn’t look small or too big into your hands. In fact it look quite a lot like Moto X and phone looks really commendable.

Moto G runs on the powerful Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor, clocked at 1.2GHz. This processor is not the best and neither does it claim to be. Designed on the A7 CPU architecture, this chip is powerful enough to perform most tasks seamlessly, especially since there is bloatware to bog it down. Currently the phone runs on 4.3 (jelly bean) version but company has announced that it will be available with upgraded version of 4.4 (kitkat) soon. Moto G is not only a smart phone which runs completely over the Android software but it gives a nice competitions to all other smart phone companies who have devices under the same categories.

The camera quality is okay but not very fascinating. It got 5MP with led flash while and also has 1.3MP front camera. Company has claimed about its battery life as all-day battery which is acceptable.
One of the major glitch about this phone is, its storage. Where there are companies offering phones with a good enough internal memory which can also later be expandable to desired memory with the SD card etc. Moto G comes with only 8 and 16GB storage capacity; In fact the actual capacity is 5.5 and 12.5GB, respectively. Although it offers cloud storage via Google Drive - 65GB.
