I've no doubt in my mind that Motorola will release a Moto G2 sometime late next year, because of the success of the Moto G.
But what improvement would you like to see, while still keeping the cost down.
I think 4G/LTE could easily be an option next year, but what else?
camera improvements maybe
Colour led, better camera, more RAM, (faster processor) are the main things for me.
All of the above with the same 720p screen and 32GB at $200

2gb RAM or at least 1.5gb, a better processor, maybe The X8 chip... A better camera (8mpx), 4G
But if you ask me ill take the better CPU/GPU/RAM then a better camera or a 1080p screen so they can keep the $200 price tag, 720p its more than enough for smartphones as long as the screen has a good quality... 1080p its already way too much and nos LG wants a 2k screen lol

To keep the cost of the device the same i would like to see a few minor improvements to the current G like 4G, 1.5 to 2gb ram, better camera megapixels don't matter.

My guesses:
RGB Led
8mp Camera
Either an older Snap 600/S4 Pro (think Nexus 7) or a new, yet unannounced Snap 400 with maybe a new low end GPU (Adreno 307, if you will)
1GB RAM, maybe faster DDR3L
8 and 16GB
Slightly bigger battery, maybe 2.2Ah
Tweaked 720p IPS display
Tweaked design - slightly thinner, slightly lighter
Expecting more than this is setting yourself up for disappointment, IMO.
If I were Moto, I'd keep the first gen G and X around, drop the G to $99 or $79, give the G2 LTE and put it starting at $179, drop the X to $279 and release the new X as a true flagship. You get all the price ranges covered with nice phones and, if kept with the same design and basic layout, without much need for retooling.
Lets just enjoy this awesome phone and worry about the 2nd version later...
Maybe X4 or X6 chip? (Since low end processors dont come with quad core GPU I'm thinking)
Gyrosensor & More Space
4.5 or 4.7" 720p display no need to change this I think.
4G/LTE should be cheap enough to have on midrange phones in 2014
Better camera 8mp BIS Sony Sensor
1080p video, the current snapdragon 400 has 1080p support but wasn't implemented in the Moto G for some reason, maybe because the lack of space with the 8GB version.
New snapdragon processor maybe the 405 clocked at 1.5Ghz with better gpu.
2GB of ram will trickle down to midrange phones in 2014, as the top end smartphones move onto 3GB & 4GB.
Slimmer design.
Colour options.
RGB notification led.
8GB storage dropped in favor of both 16GB & 32GB, should be cheap enough in 2014.
If all the above was to be the case for the Moto G2 for next year, it probably be even bigger seller than the current Moto G is now.
The 4G will depende con how things go in the world in the next months, A LOT of countries doesnt even have 4G un the works, and some of them are just starting to embrace it
I dont think a X8 CPU its really out of the realm of possibilities, obviously not The same one as the MotoX one, but a low-end one...
Bigger storage should be a thing, 16/32gb.

ok, so you basically want the g2 to be a moto X LOL.. so no, this won't happen.
a 1080p screen IS a 2k screen. the 'k' monika refers to the horizontal not vertical resolution. hence 1080, by 1920 (2k). 720 is about 1.2k.
The truth is, the margin on the Moto G is about 20%, this is so much lower than any other phone manufacturer that any improvements will be added basically at 'cost' therefore, any meaningful spec upgrade leads to a big price price rise (relatively speaking).
I would like the same phone, a year newer CPU and GPU, slightly bigger battery, 4G and improved build quality, 10% price rise. This is at least doable.
Better camera/video
Gyroscope
32 GB version
Same price 180/200/240 (8/16/32)
Sligthly more rubberized shell for better grip
Keep the rest, it's already a great phone.
For me all I'd like to see for a 'G2' is:
4.7" 720p screen
LTE
8MP Camera
1.5 or 2GB RAM
The Moto G2 will be inspired by Motorola's next year flagship, but weaker.
I could see the Moto G2 with a quad core chip, a better gpu, and 1080p screen, LTE, 4.7" screen, 2gb ram, and MAYBE 8MP camera
moto G was created to be a cheap phone with mid-highend specs. You guys want moto x specs on a 200$ phone? Forget about it. Go and buy a moto x

To be fair 5 years ago a low end phone was considered to be 256 MB of ram and a 600 MHz single core processor with a 3 inch screen and would cost the same as the moto g does today. As time goes on technology standards go up.
But I do agree some people in this thread are asking for way too much even for today's standards. If you want modern flagship specs get a modern flagship phone.

I would not be surprised to see next year's Moto G to be pretty close to the current Moto X. Maybe they change a few components to lower the price but in a year's time, the cost of most of those components will probably be down as well.

Why not just buy the moto x when the moto x2 comes out then? I guarantee it will drop in price.

Many people are joining xda on daily basis. Some of them join the forum to get custom ROMs while some join in order to get some of their problem that they are facing with their phones solved.
There are dedicated threads for ROMs but what about HELP/QUESTIONS??
People generally straight away start a new thread to get their doubts solved. But this can lead to chaos in the forum.
I'm creating this thread as an alternative to *New Threads* that aim to resolve a question.
Not only this, this thread can also become a Database kind of place where people can look if their question is already solved or not...
I request all members of the LG GFLEX 2 sub-forum to help and answer some questions posted here if they can.
I hope you guys get the idea behind this thread...
Hey, thank you for creating this thread, I've just wanted to create my own thread, but your ideea is just great!
When the G Flex 2, was announced I was really, really happy and wanted to go for it, but as I search, it's getting more, and more disspointing...
I am a Xperia Z2 owner, and I'm looking forward changing my phone, and for comparation I've searched for LG G3 oppinions against Z2, and some people say G3 is rubbish (especially battery life and camera), some say it's great and it has anything that Z2 doesn't... I really like the G Flex but there are a few things that bother me...
Can someone please answer me the following questions?
- Some say SnapDragon 810 is slower than SnapDragon 805 (2Ghz vs 2.7Ghz), and instead to go for Note 4, because it kills the Flex 2. Is that true? SD810 is slower than SD805?
- Will the G Flex 2 have 3GB ram? Again some say it will have only 2GB of ram because LG is keeping 3GB of ram for the LG G4. Is the G Flex 2 featuring the new LPDDR4?
- How is the camera on the G Flex 2/G3? I am a Xperia Z2 owner, but most of the times I'm looking for much more, this one dissapoints me (especially at sharpness, quallity and focus). How is the G3 camera compared to the Z2 camera? (THE CAMERA IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR ME!)
- How are the speakers on the Flex 2/G3? Xperia Z2 speakers really suck, the quallity is OK, but they're not enough loud.
- How should the battery on the Flex 2 be? I must say that as an Z2 user, the battery is really incredible! Should I expect less from the Flex 2?
I would really appreciate if someone would answer my questions.
Thank you and have a great day!
Will the G Flex 2 have wireless charging?
and @khrystyan27 16GB version will have 2GB ram and 32GB version will have 3GB ram like G3
Any ideas if / when verizon will have it?

Whoever says Note 4 will be better than G Flex 2 performance wise either works for Samsung or is very deluded.
The 32GB version will have 3GB of LPDDR4. G4 will most likely have 4GB, but those just started being manufactured, hence it's too early.
G3 is one of the better camera, though LG is beating a dead horse and somehow making it run a little further every time. G4 should finally put an end to the misery of the IMX135, I hope.
Assuming it's same speaker, is going to be very loud at least, but thin bass.
LG says the battery should be as good or better than G Flex, and if is just near the original G Flex it is going to be a beast!
So, do you say that G3 camera is better than Z2 camera? Photos with the Z2 at night are very blurry.

I have made this just to avoid unnecessary threads it will be living once u have g3 users joining here
I am curious about the camera, particularly the limitations on length of recording. I see it will record in WQHD but will there be a 5 minute time limit on those files? Being 64 bit, as well as the 810 under the hood I would expect them to remove these limitations but I am not sure. Any ideas?
@gpvlog, the limitations come from the device overheating, no the limited performance of the device... Even SnapDragon 800, can shot 4K flawlessly, but the device overheats because a lot of CPU/RAM is used. The NAND cells are used intensivly aswell...
this think is hottt very hot i cant handle on my hands... my mom take it to fry some eggs on it...it was water resistand?

The 3GB ram version is going to be a US carrier special. What carrier I dunno. Also if there week be an international version with 3GB ram is unknown.
LG debunks the myth, that there is a 3GB version... what are the chances that there will be a 3GB later?

Well, the information I had was from the Nordic Product Specialist, Mobile Communications. So there should be a special for some US carrier.
For global though, nothing at the start at least.
Well... My next phone IF IT WILL have 3GB ram. I'm not going back from 3GB LPDDR3 to 2GB LPDDR4. I don't care it's faster... Quantity is also important!

I'm well aware I'm posting this in the Moto G forum.
Amazon has the Moto G LTE for just under $200. They also have unlocked/new AT&T G2's for $200 to $220 (we use Cricket). There are things I like about both, for different reasons, so I'm asking the Moto G community to tell me why you would pick the G over the G2 - or not?
TIA

This might be slightly biased but moto g 4g any day for me all my Mobiles have been moto from the defy,atrix,RAZR I now moto g 4g
Here's where I'm at so far... and ultimately it will depend on how important each factor is to me I guess.
Camera: G2
Battery: I think the G might be better, but the G2 is obviously solid
Screen: G2
Processor / Speed: G2, but the G holds it's own thanks to good software.
Size / feel: I like the size of both. I like the grippier feel of the G and the fact it's easier to use with one hand. I wouldn't need a case with the G, I feel the need for one with the G2
Speaker: G
"Freedom": G... no carrier branding, can unlock bootloader, updates from Moto. My G2 is AT&T, so I have to pop an AT&T sim in to get updates
Dev Support: strong for both... but there doesn't appear to be near as much for the peregrine as the falcon, which is disappointing, unless I'm missing something? It would be great to turn the G into GPE or use an official / stable build of CM on it.
Future Proof: Well, spec-wise the G2. Software-wise I think they're in the same boat given their age.
Other: Splash resistance on the G is nice; double tap to wake the G2 is nice
Cost: Both are around $200 on Amazon, the G2 averaging about $20 more.
Hey,
I'm looking for a new device because I recently broke my OnePlus X and the repair cost is like really really expensive. I wanted to know if the Moto G3 was still worth it. I got only 200 euros to use and saw a lot of reviews that tells that it's great but i'm afraid of the SD410. Thank you for your kindness
Regards,
The new moto g will be out soon, so if you can wait a little it will be better. For me this phone is amazing, but the 2014 moto g had a better battery. I have the 2gb ram and 16gb storage and it runs everything smoothly, 5" is a perfect size for the screen, fantastic community with lot of roms and fixes... I'd definitely recommend it. But you'd better wait the new version even if you want this one because the price could go down to 140

The Moto G 2015 has a much better battery than the 2014. Maybe you have something eating your battery, but Moto did put a better battery in the 3rd gen which is basically the same phone as the 2nd gen.
The Moto G Plus is undoubtly better than the Moto G 2015, but its not water resitant anymore.
The new water resistant one (Moto G Play) is pretty lame (8 megapixel only camera). I still think my Moto G 2015 is unrepleceable.
As a viewpoint of a geek, I love this phone . You get good development support and updates too. Feels like younger brother of nexus line.
G4 plus has better specs but personally, I feel moto g 2015 looks more google motorola like and g plus tastes lenovo.[emoji39] .
For me, totally worth it.[emoji1]

Yep, it's definitely still a good phone. But stay away from the 8GB version.
No. Buy 4th Gen or wait...!!! It doesn't have Gyroscope, Amoled, Better performance etc
i told my friends to buy Moto G turbo , its also a good phone like Moto G 3rd gen,
i prefer Turbo edition, as we get a little better hardware and Turbo CHarger
Hi guys!
My g flex 2 got in a bootloop with 1006 error so I took it to warranty.
I've read on the G4 forums that they replaced or gave their money back cuz LG couldn't fix that error.
So I was wondering....should I buy Leeco Le 2 Pro if I get my money back or just stick with H955?
I know that the Cortex A72s on the Helio x20 are more powerful than SD810,but on the other hand Mali T880MP4 is much weaker than 430.
Also,I've got lucky and my g flex had a good display,without yellow spots,but it heated up like hell when gaming(or using gps) so I had to root and use the custom thermal config file.This issue has been allegedly fixed on 6.0.1(I didn't get to upgrade mine),but they said the same thing for 5.1.1...and now I don't know what to believe.
Besides that,I've seen that the IMX 135 on our g flex is very similar to the IMX 230 on leeco,even though the latter has 21 mpx.
I don't really care about the fingerprint sensor,it is nice to have but it seems more of a gimmick to me,the knock code can do the job as well.
Furthermore,there is 2gb of LPDDR4 on g flex,while leeco has 4gb of LPDDR3.Would that make a noticeable upgrade?(I'm not a real multitasker,I ask in terms of general speed)
So...what do you recommend me? Are the two A72 really worth it or should I keep my g flex?
Sorry for the long post
I'm looking forward to your replies.

hi i got my self a xiaomi redmi note 3 pro (the s650 version) i just bought it not send yet
i'm giving up on the lg flex 2... no unlocked bootloader not custom roms...
and ugly ass screen p-oled it's very granular on grey spots u see alot of wierd points. it's very ugly.
and dont go for a mediatek.... it works for basic but its nothing special.
go for a xiaomi redmi note 3 pro
the snapdragon 650 is almost as good as the s810 that's in the flex2
redmi note 3 ahd 3gb ram and 32gb storage with sd card support
5.5" full hd. and a 4000mah battery and finger print scanner
the lg flex 2 is okay but 2gb ram and 16gb internal is not that great.
the full hd screen is not the best wierd poled. but people love the curved phone they are al curious. other then that. nothing special.
i still prefer tu use my lg g3 2gb 16gb with a good custom rom. i get more battery then on the flex2, it's my 2nd that just lays at home i use it for all the gta games. i got it for 168 euro new. trying to sell it now... for a bit more.
the xiaomi is 155euro on aliexpress. that's really a steal
im selling the flex 2 it's a fun phone but not that good it's left behind... just let the flex 2 go. let it go let it go
Good luck with warranty. Also MIUI is probably the heaviest android UI ever made, i had mi4c and it was struggling with 3GB RAM. (after boot with 0 apps i had like 500mb free RAM), pretty amazing.. :good:
Audio quality was so bad i sold it within a week, they are using cheap audio chips i had constant buzzing using headphones.
Also Xiaomi is locking bootloaders aswell, you want custom roms for Redmi 3? It's pretty much MIUI or CM.
Sell the LG, but don't buy that phone.
But what other options do I have in this price range??
The G4 is pricier than I can afford and frankly it doesn't impress me with that SD808.
I was thinking about that leeco because the camera is better than in our g flex,and also has manual mode,+4k hdr.
I had a very pleasant experience with my g flex(besides the overheating) but I'm afraid that it will be a dead device by next year(As seen on G Flex 1).Moreover,I don't see it holding it up too much with only 2gb of ram,be it DDR4.
Nexus 5x is not an option because of the lack of internal memory,weaker cpu and weaker camera.
So? Any other ideas? Pros?Cons?
Check Moto X Play, Xperia Z3, Huawei P8, Meizu MX5.

redmi note 3 has unlocked bootlaoder. but they lock it so aliexpress sellers don't put malware on it. you can unlock it your self in 5min (after asking a unlock code thing)
cm13 aosp aokp mokee rom, and what every
miui is not my favorite. used it a long time ago on my lg optimus 2x.
yeah you need to tweak it. it doesnt use the 3gb ram well. just put the background limit to standard and more thing
warranty? i dont know that word lol sure i bought the flex 2 new from amazon a 168euro but i dont give a fùck a bout warrenty really.
audio seems okay a bit mixed reviews soem say speaker and call volume is to low other see it's good.
dont use earphone use bluetooth for 60% of the time.

but has a s810 also but 4gb ram
but i prefer a phone with custom roms like the xiaomi. (that why i'm giving up on the lg flex2 never could use it as my general phone it's just my 2nd it's not good enough to be for every day use it find it's faster then my lg g3 but yeah the flex 2 with no custom roms killed it really for me)
i really can't recommand any mediatek phones, i dont hate them buy yeah there battery life isn't that great and no optimazation at all like 0... and not custom roms
Unfortunately,in my country(Romania) I can't buy x800 as it cannot be found anywhere.
So the only option remains le 2 pro.I just can't figure it out.
I saw that the the difference between the cameras(back) isn't big at all,but Leeco's UI is indeed much smoother.It is so fast.
To keep it short,the only thing that stops me to buy that phone is the gpu.Mali T880MP4 is so much weaker than 430 and I'm afraid not to affect general usage or gaming(if android is ever getting any nice game)

you can't buy from aliexpress?
the letv pro 2 it's that great from what i read. camera is a really crap, seems great on paper but videos and picture arent that nice
on youtube some did a review. and both sayed camera isn't that good. after some days of usage.
i dont know i find mediatek bad. i mean i would buy it for parents or older people. like my mom has a doogee f5 with the mtk6753 and it's good for her internet facebook whatapp. but me it's not good enough.
tried a other mediatek also mtk6753 the umi touch. still hate it. and still didn't sell it can't seem to get rid of it. anyway. i love snapdragon and will keep phone with snapdragon (high end phones) cause low end i find mediatek great
anyway i wouldnt recommande keeping the flex 2. so yeah. no other options?
Not really... but if leeco's camera isn't that good then I see no reason to buy it.
And I can buy from aliexpress but I'm concerned about the warranty.Furthermore,it takes like 2 months for the phone to arrive.. so,it is a big NO!
I really like xperia z3+ but in my country it is very expensive..like 400$,compared to 275$ that i spent on the g flex..
Also,marshmallow seems great on the g flex 2 but again once it got updated to 5.1.1 many said that the overheating is gone...but it wasn't the case for me,and I updated from day one.
I am so undecided right now.
Moreover,I just can't wait for the prices to drop..or black friday as I don't have any other smartphone.Currently(until my phone comes out of warranty or I get my money back) I am using a samsung e1200 if you can believe it.

yeah maybe wait for the sale maybe there will be a good phone.
i buy most of my **** of aliexpress. (chinees phones) anyway z3 is also a good phone. maybe htc one m8 or m9? no samsung they are to expensive. lg g4 i guess also bit to expensive.
try to look in phone stores or shops what they have for sale . maybe then try to look on the internet if you can find a cheaper deal

))))) the drug dealer phone
Thats a good one))
I may get the opportunity to buy a g4 but i don't know if I should give my 810 for 808.
I know that at the moment there are very few gpu demanding games on android and I don't even play them(I played asphalt 8 for like 4 years but then I dropped it when I realized what a bunch of greedy bastards gameloft is made of).
I am surely going to enjoy g4's camera and even display(tough I might miss the oled) but you know...here comes that pride thing.
Now i've got 810 and adreno 430,my phone is a powerhouse,almighty and I feel so good about that.But with a 418..is just meh.. ok
@pungasul1
I feel you man. But thr flex 2 is abandoned... That's sucks.. The phone is good. But every other phones has custom roms and support.
Anyway. I don't know. Just try some phones in a store.
G4 is a good looking phone and the camera is a beast, a friend of mine has it and i analized the 2 phones pretty intensive. In my opinion the G4 display is better, but for a regular user the oled looks better, i was running antutu, it was testing the 3D and our girlfriends said the flex 2 display looks better... After we ran antutu 5 times, the flex 2 scores was the same as the G4, but installing and opening apps is fastter on flex 2. I don't care to much for updates so the G Flex 2 is ok for me.
Well,its sad but i wouldnt buy G Flex 2 again,but im happy with that phone currently. If i would like to change it,i would go for Mi5 or PRO 6,those are one heck of a phones. Even P9 isnt that bad tho. But if you care for updates,get 5X or 6P,updates are guaranteed to H2 2017,so you will get Android O for sure
