That is for the 8GB/1GB version. This is for the bigger memory/better Ram deal

Will be announced on 9th June if you believe this article:

Motorola Moto G4 (Moto G 2016) UK release date price and specs rumours: New Moto G4 and Moto G4 Plus coming on 9 June

Extract from article: It looks like there will be two models, the regular Moto G4 and the Moto G4 Plus, which will cost 240 and 280 Euros respectively, according to Quandt. That's £190 in the UK so it looks like the Moto G4 price will be going up for 2016 if this rumour is correct.

£119 and unlocked from giffgaff https://www.giffgaff.com/motorola/motorola-g-3/phone-details

Sorry, missed that and heat added! :smiley:

Is Marshmallow available for this yet?

One got one of these for my son - worth paying a bit extra to get 16gb/2gb.

Great phone and I think my son said it has since been updated to Marshmallow

Yep spot on, the Mrs got it on her Moto G 3rd Gen before I did on the Moto G 2nd. Good price, heat.

Bear in mind Motorola/Lenovo have a press conference scheduled for May 17th, supposedly the unveiling of the Moto G 4th Gen

I have got one of these (the 16gb version) and it is a great phone for the money. The battery life is extremely impressive, I am a moderate user and I probably still have 70-75% of my battery left at the end of each day.

Only thing that I don't like is the lack of a notification LED.

Is there a 4th gen available for this model?

Thanks a lot, great help.

You're welcome! :smiley: I've been waiting for the Moto G 4th gen myself, but am concerned that Motorola/Lenovo/whoever are going to price it close to £200 - a bit of a departure from the original Moto G setting new standards in budget smartphones by costing not much more than £100 on original release. In fact I don't know if anyone will call the 4th gen a 'budget' phone..

New version should be announced early May. Might be best to wait and see what that is all about, possible price drop for this model too.

This model should have been the default model for UK The price around 125 - 135 is attractive.

Beware. The seller (in his Q&A) states that this phone is the 8G one and not the 16G as the title states.

There is no NFC support
There is no magnetometer
There is no gyroscope
There is no LED notification light

I have the Moto G 4G and was going to go for this, until I read about it.

Is this better (specs wise) than a Doogee X5 Pro?

The 8GB one is easily available unlocked at around £130 now

My work 3rd Gen Moto is now showing update to Android 6 Marshmallow available, this should allow true memory merging to the SD card. So the 8GB should not be a big limitation now - geek confirmations required!

..Nah, I've got a doogee and it's miles better than the Moto G which is now rotting in the "old phones" drawer. The Doogee's way cheaper too

Totally agree anything close to £200 isnt a budget phone - £200 will get you some older flagship phones ie LG G3

If Vodafone come out with a new Smart Ultra 6 around £120 that'll be the one to get - No guarantee they will - Might be EEs turn to come up with the goods!

​yes, but I'd suggest you research the options for memory card storage options first as not all apps (eg Google play music) work on SD on Marshmallow.

​ the memory merging is a bit rubbish.don't pin too much hope on it.

Totally agree with you too ! :smile: About your point that '£200 will get you some older flagship phones ie LG G3' - that's exactly what I did last year (in May 2015) for my sister's birthday: I bought her an LG G2 from amazon for £198, which she's still delighted with now !

It's a bit of a con really. Most apps it seems still install on internal memory. I've got a Samsung micro SD card in my Moto G and despite selecting use a internal storage almost everything goes on phone memory

Music and photos go straight to memory card but not much else

​It is because you have selected use internal memory that it is using the phones memory and not the SD card.

No - selected use SD card as Internal memory.
Do you have Marshamallow? Have you managed to get most apps onto the sd card?

Not a bad phone. I had the 2nd for 2 years and still working. Not FHD.
FHD and better spec and cheaper phone Infocus M580 FHD

There is no NFC support - never used it
There is no magnetometer - what is it
There is no gyroscope - never used it
There is no LED notification light - moto display is great

I get you point - but it's not supposed to be a top end phone - just a good solid reliable phone at a reasonable price.

the silly thing the original moto g and moto g 4g had a compass/gyroscope and led notification.

the compass/gyroscope is very useful when finding places on foot with google maps.... you know you're heading in the right direction!

Crikey, that is cheap

I'm sure mines got a compass(magnetometer) - it changes direction when walking
Also it has dual accelerometers, for directional motion...

​Yes it is.

It's for when you need to find this guy...

Yes, your right. I have a Moto G 4G (8Gb) with Marshmallow installed. After reading the exciting features of the memory management, I quickly formatted my 32GB as Internal storage. That should solve all my storage problems?. Wrong. Apparently it only works with apps which are designed to use it. Hence, the majority of apps out there still install to the original Internal memory!. So, already again, I am hitting storage issues once again.

Avoid 8GB models at all cost!

cheaper on O2

:Yawn:

Really? Please post the link....

Thought so! cheers for confirming this... still need 16gb really. I can make do with 8gb just about but I think most people thought that they could add 32gb card and be sorted!
Its still ok if you download lots of music and take photos as they go straight to the card

Now gone up (22.49 on 28.04) by a whole 11p... At the new highly inflated price this phone is an absolute rip off!! :wink:

Never buy an 8gb phone, you spend must of your waking life deleting stuff just to install updates

I laughed...a lot

I have same issue as you.

I can't decide whether to buy one of these outright and pay £16 a month or get an Honor 7 on contract for £29 a month.

Neither :smile:

LG G3 (now with marshmallow) might be a better bet at this price point!

Hmm that means Marshmallow offers no memory benefit over Jellybean? Really?

This cant be better price for tech than LG G 3 on vodafone. I'm sorry but voting cold.

does anyone know if ships with Marshmallow? - I'd hope not as Moto Transfer doesn't work with Marshmallow. What app do people use to transfer to a new phone and retain all SMS messages and call history etc?

Marshmallow isnt installed.... comes with 5.0.1 i think
cant help on the other questions but Google backs up contacts and you can get Whatsapp to back conversations

Thought this looked hot but returned this phone after having touch screen issues

OP, the price is now £143.05 on Amazon. Update your price and get a few more heats :smile:
