Superb value, Improved camera, Big screen for the price, Decent display quality
Lower sharpness than 2013 Moto G, Slightly disappointing battery life, A little chunky, Average sound quality
The 2014 Motorola Moto G doesn't flatten last year's model in every respect. It's bigger and less comfortable to hold but a much-improved camera and larger screen make it a worthwhile update....
Unless a truly top notch camera is a requirement, the Moto G – in any variant – really is all the smartphone most people will ever need. For the price the new Mk.II 4G device is the pick of the crop by virtue of the larger screen, bigger battery, 4G comms...
The Moto G 2nd Gen is still a great bargain. It's a £140 phone that gives a surprising number of £200-plus mid-range handsets a real run for their money, and in most cases actually beats them hands down in terms of overall value. The Vodafone Smart Ultra...
I like this handset A LOT. It offers unprecedented design and decent hardware for the ultra-low asking price. You can do a lot with the Moto G too, so much so I hardly missed my allegedly superior Nexus 5 during testing. There are certain issues –– imag...
Abstract: Supplied in either black or white the New Moto G 2014 smartphone has a classic look that can be spiced up with colourful interchangeable shells sold separately . The design on the front is framed at the top and bottom with stereo speakers and whilst the 2...

Very good buildquality, Responsiveness and fluidity worthy of a premium phone, Clear display with balanced colours, Decent media player, Incall sound quality, Addition of a microSD card slot
You're almost forced to buy a memory card to store your media files, Video capture, Speaker audio output, Pretty average photo quality, SAR value increased from 0.79 W/kg to 1.24 W/kg
The Moto G 4G doesn't offer the same exceptional value-for-money as its predecessor. There are now several good-quality 4G Android phones on the market for less than £160, including the Huawei Ascend G740 and the Samsung Galaxy Ace 3. That's not to take a...
Brilliant price, good display, improved camera, good battery life, great performance in this class
No 4G, no NFC, bulkier design from larger screen format, average sound, front-facing speaker bar design
The price was the key to the original Moto G's success and we suspect it will be a similar story for the 2014 model too. For £150 you get a lot for your money, including a decent display, very good battery life, ample performance and an improved cam...
Budget pricing, Micro SD slot, Dual SIM, Feels nice in the hand, In daylight the camera is reasonable, Navigation throughout the UI is nice and smooth
720p on a 5” display looks a little pixelated here and there, Overall build quality feels more like a large Moto E, The camera struggles in low light, Front stereo speakers are pretty basic, lacking depth, Multi tasking at times is a little slow, Data spe

Abstract: This year's Motorola Moto G (or “new Moto G”, as the Chicago company would prefer you call it) has a lot to live up to. Last year's model wasn't just the best value phone of 2013, it was also the best selling Motorola smartphone of all time. How could Mot...
One of the best entrylevel phones money can buy, Bigger size aids visuals, Better camera
Lack of 4G, Processor upgrade would have been nice
Motorola’s unwillingness to increase the new Moto G’s numerical value hints at the fact that this isn’t the type of upgrade we’re accustomed to. Still, the device benefits from a larger screen and photography enthusiasts will be pleased to find a better ...
