Seems to be even more entry level than the Moto G. They quote the price for the dual SIM + TV as R$599,00 - I'd expect it to retail for something like $119,00 / £89,00 / €129,00 SIM-free, unlocked.
Why would a more entry level phone cost more?

I'm going by Amazon prices here, but the cheapest G goes for $179 / £115 / €159,00. Obviously you can find it discounted, but this isn't what I'm talking about, I'm talking about standard prices.

Unlocked? Without contract?
It also looks like a Moto G LTE version is going to be released in the coming months as well. I would imagine the next version of the Moto G will have LTE as a standard feature. The costs of including multiple bands for LTE is coming down so it only makes sense.

Best phone I ever had

I might get the LTE Moto G since the screen on my current G is cracked/scratched at the upper right. It's barely noticeable, but it's noticeable enough to annoy me. Quite a few people like my phone and it isn't available here (I don't think Digicel plans on carrying this phone and it's expensive as hell to import) so I can most likely sell it for some good cash once I get the LTE version.
I am so buying it just for the lte features xD
I want the moderator to ban me.
Really ?Why here is so expensive ?
http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/news/motorola-moto-e-xt1022-spotted-on-indian-import-website-519174
moto e coming soon!! to cost around 8000 indian rupees or 8500 rupees approx!!
Moto E has been officially announced, here is the full specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_moto_e-6323.php
Available in the uk for £79.99 locked to o2.
A £150 moto g model is out now with micro sd and lte support though.
Moto G2 is set to be announced on the September 4 event internationally, Indian announcement to follow on September 5 at New Delhi. It was a question whether Motorola would discontinue the moto g in favor of G2. Flipkart now announced that they are conducting the sale [of the] last stock of Moto G. So it is confirmed that the Moto G will be discontinued and its place will be taken by the Moto G2.
Moto G has been hugely successful in India. Moto announced that it sold over 1 million handsets through Flipkart till June. Moto is now the 4th biggest smartphone company in India, ahead of Nokia. They achieved this by just 3 handsets, most of the nmbers is because of Moto G.
Moto recently slashed Moto G’s price by Rs.2000 due to recent increase in competition (read Xiaomi Mi 3 and Asus Zenfone 5), making it more attractive for buyers and a nicer deal. Moto G 8gb model recently got out of stock recently and have not been replenished till now. It is to be expected that it was the last stock of Moto G 8gb version. Now, with Flipkart’s ‘Get yours before it’s gone!’ sale, it might be your last chance to get a Moto G.
Moto G2 has been in news and leaks for some time. In case you don’t know, G2 is said to feature a 5-inch 720p display with the same snapdragon 400 processor coupled with 1GB ram. Camera units might be a 5 or 8 megapixel primary with 2 megapixel secondary. It is also said to feature dual front speakers like the htc One. The price might be slightly higher than the Moto G.
Moto G 16gb is set to go out of stock soon and will be permanently unavailable soon. Flipkart is also offering 50% off on Moto G accessories in favor of clearing out stock. It is the best and last time you can get your Moto G, Buy it now or never!

I suppose the good news is that Moto G 2 appears to be essentially the same hardware as Original Moto G. That should mean it won't take much more work for Motorola to create versions of Android 'L' that work on both devices.
I don't care if this or that is discontinued, I just wish my little fellow gets a taste of Android L... Hope to see a new notification saying "New system update available".. That's all I want.. :crying:
Android L will be the last system update for moto g for sure.. In the future, when android M and N comes out, we will have to look at Cyanogen to have a new custom firmware...
Well,this is sad,because this device is highly known and a great quality device. I think it deserves to get android L at least,and for future updates we cant rely on Cyanogenmod,because currently do not have a high support. I dont know who this guy Ethan Chen is,but i know that dhacker is a great dev,and his support was better. I'm 99.9% shure that he would port L and future updates if he was an offical maintainer.
So in conclusion,we just need barebone android L image and the majority of us will be satisfied.
The Moto G will get the Android L upgrade and i guarantee it. Motorola is still not fully with Lenovo yet. And i read since that Moto's software is near AOSP it should be easy for them to upgrade us soon, but since the Moto G2 is coming out we may get it like a week or two later. Remember how we got kitkat on December 24 even though Motorola said it was coming early 2014 or something like that?
bummer... many people have bought moto g on my recommendation. they are going to kill me.
lets hope android l is in cards and custom roms continue to flourish... cant upgrade my phone yearly

That's true, since this is a worldwide well known device, it should receive L, because it would be a great hit between customers. But if you think, maybe if falcon is discontinued, for Motorola won't be necessary to upgrade the device to L since moto g won't be available anymore.
But, if Motorola wants to be recognized as one of the best device maintainers talking about updates, they must consider upgrade falcon to L. Then, Motorola users, with no doubt, will gen a moto in the future instead of buying another phone.
Larger screen on g2 with same resolution translates to lower PPI. Only significant change is the camera.
I actually bought the g for the smaller screen and 720p quality . I already have the s3 and s4 which are slightly uncomfortable to hold in one hand due to their larger screens . I also have the moto e which is as good as the g. You won't find much difference in the moto g and e for daily use except if you need the front camera for video calls then moto g does not have it . Sorry for being slightly OT .
moto g will get android l

They aren't discontinuing it until they release the Moto G2. So it isn't like you won't be able to get one for the same similar price and hardware.

Yes they are (May be in India for now), Flipkart is the exclusive online retailer for Moto g in India. They confirmed and is now selling the last stocks they have from Moto. **sale is still going on**

Yes, and the Moto G2 is coming out in a few weeks. So there is no great loss. This is what happens when new generations of phones come out.

isn't it a loss for someone looking for a good small sized handset? Not everyone is the fan of a 5-inch device.Right?

Sure. But if the phone size itself is the same, I think most people will be fine with it.
So one company announces it will stop selling Moto G's in favour of the G2 and the community think that is equivalent to the G being discontinued? Oh, by the way, here in the UK, carphone warehouse have listed the Moto G in their stores as "new". Just for the record.

May be. But the leaked images shows a slightly bigger phone right? Bezels are also not that thin like G3. So how can you expect a device of similar size?
Check your updates from Play Store!
It seems like this is our present after todays new announced piece of hardware!
Discuss if you'll keep your current Moto G or upgrade to the 2014 edition!

No.
Not purchasing new hardware BUT did take advantage of the significant price drop today on the 4G LTE version at Amazon...
Yes. Moto droid turbo (a) Moto Maxx is a great mobile. A 5.2" QUAD-HD, 3GB RAMmed, Snapdragon 805 device with turbo and wireless charging. Take my money already moto.
Given India is very good market for Moto, What do you people think? Will we get our hands on the beast soon?
Should get it in India by December I guess ?...one of the few phones m on the lookout for ?

The Moto Maxx will go on sale today in Brazil through Motorola’s website. By mid-November, it will arrive in Mexico. Additional Latin American countries will get it shortly after.
Hey all,
I have been a moto x user since it's inception. I have seriously loved the minimal bloat and the moto assist ks amazing.
My battery in my 2nd gen moto is shot and I need to upgrade. I have always purchased my phone through Verizon @ the $200 price tag. My question is: is the new moto x worth the $400 price tag? I have looked into the S6 as a plan B. However is the bloated software from Samsung going to drive me crazy since I am used to the mostly stock UI on the moto x?

Wrong forum. This is for the X Play, not the Pure
IF u want good battery, go for the Play. It's awesome!
Skickat från min XT1562 via Tapatalk
I switched from my S6 to the X Play (which is 'less' than the X Pure) and I`m loving every bit of it. The bloatware in the S6 + touchwiz is maddening. I also have more free memory on this device, than on the S6, which actually has 1GB more in total
