Shame there is no sim free option unless I've missed it.

Under £2 to unlock, but not sure I'd recommend this phone, seriously going off Moto series phones. X Play - back under warranty; Moto G4 Plus - currently going back under warranty for ghost touch; G5 Plus - camera image problems; wifes G5 cracked non-Gorilla screen within a fortnight of buying. Having been quite loyal to Moto, I think they may have stretched my loyalty too far :thinking:

I am so sorry that you had to go through this buddy.
On the contrary i have used G4 Plus and G5 Plus and both have been fantastic without any issues. So a good deal i would say and hope no one has to go through what you had to go through

Moto X 2nd gen going strong since Jan 2016. Dropped plenty times too. Very slow on updates though not moving from android 6.0

Tis a shame for sure, it's a far cry from the original Moto G that was £100 from Tesco and well built and well supported. Since Lenovo took over they've not carried on the good work Google/Moto started but sadly Lenovo are only interested in selling new phones as they make no money from issuing updates. Let's not even go down the compass ommision!

Agreed. I bought this and sent it back, it's made of cheap plastic that wont survive a drop and the speaker on it was dreadful. Still using my G3 and original Moto G

4 motos in the home with no issues. Mine X force for over a year no issues, Mrs G4 play for six months no problems, two boys have G4 and G5 no problems. All except the X force were bought second hand.

I had the Moto G and the G2 with no problems, but it does look like quality control is going downhill.

Seems a good price. Shame you need to add a top-up too.

Really? How do you avoid having to pay the £10 in the "select your tariff" section of checkout?
As for the people recommending the Huawei P8, I hope they have got better at issuing updates. I have never, in the 4 years I have owned my phone, had an update from Huawei for my P1. It put me off buying any of their phones again.

You are selecting a tariff. Not paying for a top up. Add the phone to the basket, select the £10 tariff then go to checkout and see the price.

Unlocking does void warranty, just checked

A software unlock code is all that's required and can't invalidate the warranty.... suppliers may make that threat/excuse but it's not the same as unlocking the boot loader which will invalidate the warranty as a big bootup screen says so.
