[Q] How to buy Dual sim Moto G from India?

Is there anyone that can help me buy a dual sim Moto G 16gb from India?
Is it released already?
Hope that it will be much cheaper than in Brazil

Not Much Info On release date...
it will be available in Indian markets within a month and probably priced around INR 15000 to keep the phone in budget range, there's no official release date or price...
btw, what's the price in Brazil ?
and why do u want to purchase it from India ?

The price in Brazil is approx. 340USD

Hi folks,
The Moto G dual SIM (XT1033) is already available in the most popular online retailers, its price is around US$ 250. However, it seems that this device is selling well because the availability of units is decreasing fast.

Moto G in saudi arabia

moto g is not available in my country so I gonna travel to suadi arabia. please some one led me to where can i found this phone in suadi arabia only for single sim x1032 version?tnx

If I were buying a phone to use overseas, I would just buy it online through Motorola or amazon. Those are the places you can buy the unlocked international gsm version, whereas most retail stores carry the CDMA version, at least that's how it is in the U.S. I wouldn't buy it in Saudi Arabia as their prices tend to be high, so ordering it online would be the cheapest option and shipping times aren't too bad; about 1 week or less.

I email them last week they told me they dont have moto g yet.. As of now i buy already dual sim, as of now im enjoying my stock rom

Question about the 32GB/3GB Variants

Hey guys,
So long story short, I had my trusty G3 die on me a couple months ago. I then got a hold of a practically new only ever used once G Flex for a couple hundred, and I have to say that in all honesty, it's one of the best phones I've ever used.
But now I've gotten to the point where I need more than a 720p screen, internal storage with no SD Card slot and a better camera. As well as a general improvement in specs. The G Flex 2 perfectly fits what I want in a phone, everything about it is exactly what I want...Theres just one problem.
I had the Europe/International/D855 variant of the G3, but the EU variant of the Flex 2 doesn't come with 3gb ram. Only the US one does. So I'm wondering, would an unlocked US variant work in Australia where I live? Or is there a variant that would be better suited? As long as it's a 3GB/32GB one, I don't mind.
Cheers. Hopefully going to be joining you all soon.
Tl;DR: Will a US Variant work in Australia unlocked? Is there a variant that will work better?

Rather than try and guess what carrier you have or bands that they use vs what the phone supports, I'm gonna direct you here.

It is tempting considering I have the 16gb model as well. But I still have ample space left on my phone since I reserve gaming on my PC. I just have a few casual games to kill a little time while waiting in line or at appointments. With a 128 GB card inserted, I have ample room for some music, movies, and pics.

Damn, sold out already.

Thanks for the note! Snagged one, too good a deal to pass up.

i just snagged one...thanks for the note
quick question...i think it comes with android 5.1.1 - i'm with sprint and using a gs5 and will replace it with this moto...when i received the moto, how do i upgrade it to 6.1 or whatever it should be now - without activate it on sprint first? or i will have to ask sprint to activate the moto with them first then take their OTA? my current gs5 is rooted and have the wifi hotspot enabled...that's all i want on this moto
checking on other threads, they said i'll need to request a bootloader unlock, then root, then flash another rom.
first time moto, first time using an unlocked phone here
thanks experts,

You do not need to upgrade to 6.X before flashing a custom 6.X ROM.

You should not have to install a SIM to update to 6.0 (current release for the Moto X Pure), just configure the phone with your Google account and you should be able to update via WiFi. And you may not need to root to enable hotspot on Sprint, since it is not a carrier-branded phone the native hotspot feature may work out of the box, or if not you can use PdaNet/FoxFi. Personally I would not root the phone unless you really need to for a particular function.

Thanks for info. I'm still waiting for the phone. Best buy sent a text sorry for the delay. Hopefully they're not canceling it ?

Yeah, hope they're not out of them (again) already. Fyi there is also the 32 GB version available for $269 from BB. For only $10 more the 64 GB is a better deal but if they're out the 32 GB is an option -- since the Moto X will accept an SD card for music/movies/whatever you don't really need 64 GB of internal memory in most cases.
.

I gave in and bought one also.
Even if the MXP 2016 is announced this week, it'll still be a while before its dropped and then a while longer before AOSP ROM's are available and stable.

Is there even going to be a MXP 2016? I thought the newly-released Moto Z was the replacement, and that is not what I want at all (USB-C, no audio jack, etc.)

Supposedly it's going to be announced sometime over the next few days at some electronics show going on right now.
*Rumors*

I'm pretty sure that the flagship for 2016 is the Moto Z, with the 3 new Moto G models making up the mid-line. I don't think there is going to be such a thing as a MXPE 2016, but maybe I'm wrong.

Man, awhile back like 3 weeks ago I got mine from best buy brand new 32gb for 250 ,black model ..plus additional 10 bucks off with visa checkout ..I guess I got a great deal on this since the refurbished is 279 .. I came from a HTC one m9 that bit the dust

That was a good deal for new, normal price for the 32 is $350 and the 64 is $399.
I received my 64 GB refurnished unit today. Condition was like new but they only included a lame ass standard charger, not the QC 2.0 charger that comes with the new units. Disappointing but oh well, they're only about $13 from Amazon.

I remember when my mom managed to snag the last stock of the 32GB X Pure from our nearest BB store for that price as well. I didn't even notice it was the 32GB one until I saw it on the cash register screen. It was probably the best deal I've seen for something of that caliber in a good while.

Slickdeals.net my friend ..that's the website I check religiously for deals and I happened to findd it a day after my m9 busted

It looks like these is in fact going to be a Moto X 2016, but it doesn't seem like anything we'd be interested in. A lower-spec phone (smaller screen, etc.) than the 2015 Moto X and probably won't be available for the US market. The flagship seems to have been transferred to the Moto Z.

The 32GB version is available today brand-new direct from Motorola.
Possibly with some restrictions though.
Ends 9/7. Motorola Store has the Motorola Moto X Pure Edition 32GB 5.7" Unlocked Smartphone (White & Silver or White & Blue) for $250 with free shipping. Select 32GB storage on the customization page to see the discounted price.

Good smartphone with 6.7 or 6.8 screen under $350?

Hi there,
I've been using my Note 8 for a few years now, but I feel I need a bigger screen.
I don't want to spend too much money, I don't use the phone to take pictures, I have my professional camera for that, nor for gaming as I use my Switch.
So, I'm looking for a good phone, with bigger screen.
I'm considering the Moto G for $299 or the Galaxy A71 for $149, though I'm confused because there's also this Galaxy A71 for $469. If the difference between the two Galaxy is only the unlocked feature, than I should be ok with the $149 as I'm on T-Mobile.
Anyway, are those two phones good? Is there a clear winner between the two? Is there a better option?
Thanks for any help!

Unfortunately no, can't buy Xiaomi in the U.S.
So Moto G! I thought it was a good phone, what was holding me back is that on a few YT reviews it seemed that Samsung is a little better in terms of speed, and screen quality.
Thanks for chiming in!
Edit: I could stretch the budget to $400, maybe Moto 5G could be a better option?

Could you tag the phones again with gsmarena? Either the links don't work as intended for me or I am getting redirected from the US website.

AFAIK you can buy XIAOMI phones in the US from here:
