But one is G4, while the other is G4 Play (2 very different Animal's ... )
What's the difference please?, lol.

Took just over a week for mine to be delivered, which gave me a chance to buy a few tempered glass screen protectors in advance. Really nice phone, I'm very happy with my first foray into Android for several years. Bit of a learning curve but the phone is a cracking deal at this price.

G4 Plus will a good one... this is just as good as the cheap chinese ones out there. But not bad for a throw away phone, as a daily driver - would be difficult to cope with.

I have a moto e 2nd generation. Does anyone have any idea how much better this G4 is. One thing with my e is that although the battery is supposed to be good I do not think its that great as I am a light user and I hate to think how long it would last if I do what most people do.

Great find thanks phone for the better half sorted out - phone has good review on Amazon and it about £40 more

The reviews on Amazon have to be sifted through as the reviews for the G4 Play, G4 and G4 Plus are all lumped together.

Think it harks back to the time of the original Moto G which was such a bargain when it came out, but this now just seems a re hash of that. The good thing going for this at least is the 16gb of ROM, 8gb fills up too quickly now with the latest versions of Android. Personally I went for a second hand LG G3 at the same price as this and much prefer it over my last Moto G3.

Yes it will as it is unlocked. You need to make sure your SIM will fit though - this takes a micro-SIM. you can always use an adapter if yours is another size, or get Orange tochange it.

Typing this on the G4 Play I got the last time it was at this price. Not gamed on it yet, but everything runs well, though Facebook crashed once. Speaker is a slight disappointment in volume.

is the moto g 3rd gen better than this Play version? Surely at least it has better camera, and probably build quality as well?
Seems totally pointless device to me?

I have the 3rdGen (16gb/2gb). The 2gb makes it usable, 1gb in 2017 shouldn't be allowed!!

Not noticed any issues. Have streamed music via Deezer to our car via Bluetooth, while I'm surfing the web/checking social media, with no slow down/lag.
This phone manages its memory well, unlike other brands.

The 3rd Gen has a textured finish unlike the G4 which is another negative

I'm guessing there must be a decent 2gb Ram alternative phone for £80, and yet no one seems to mention it when talking about this deal. Please enlighten us, looking for a first smartphone for someone and while I wouldn't have this myself, it seems like a decent deal and a decent phone having played around with one :smiley:

3rd gen is also waterproof which is a massive bonus at this price level.

That sort of particular feature (waterproofing) is an excellent selling point in it's own right really?. :-)

got this phone with the codes last time this was posted.sold my S7 edge in preparation for the release of the S8 in april.not a bad little phone for the price.if anybody is thinking of taking the plunge go ahead you wont be dissapointed.heat added again
amour3k to ihatebingo
26 Feb 17#51
But in prepping yourself for the S8, have you given up more of your own 'edge' by canning your S7?, or ..... lol.
ihatebingo
26 Feb 17#52
no just sold it for a price point of view.im anticipating that the s7 edge will probably drop another 10-15% when the s8 is released.so just got out while the price was still ok.

it's really worse than the 1st gen because apps are much bigger now. typing this on my 1gb g3 which is awful for task switching (although love it for other reasons!) i noticed the g1 i still have on kitkat 4.4 is faster. no amount of tweaking is sorting this out. avoid imho, people are not kidding you we want 2gb+ now :/

I've paid through paypal. Paypal is set against my Amex credit card. Will see what happens. Never had any issues like that!

I agree. My son has moto G3 with 2GB memory. I specifically bought 2GB, since he plays lots of games. Brilliant so far and, never failed or had any complaints from him yet.
My daughter has moto G 4G with 1GB memory, but she rarely play games. No issues so far.
This is for my wife, and she don't play games, so I think this will be more than enough for her.
Great quality phones with almost pure android. Gets updates for almost all models unlike MANY big brands just sell the phone and offer another model in couple of months COMPLETELY ignoring other models they sold.
This is the main reason why any motorolla deal gets damn hot in double quick time.

what happens if you open 3 big apps, say Chrome, maps and something like momondo, and switch between them? does chrome reload? i would be surprised if a 1gb can multitask, if you want to book flights or something this can be a disaster.
