Personally, I prefer the Moto G 2013: it is smaller than 2014 (for me 2013's dimension is perfect: it is neither big nor small), it has the LTE module and more pixels per inch.
2014 for me
Two reason
Camera
N big screen

Will the display from regular moto g fit to the moto g lte? my moto g lte has a broken display and i wanna replace it with the display from moto g and i just want to know if there will be any problems with compatibility. thanks
I've changed the display of only one moto g 4g so far, with a normal moto g one.It worked just fine.
thank you
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.
TLDR - if you have the 2013 G and experienced it before and after Lollipop, did Lollipop significantly slow things down, or does it still run as good as it did on 4.4.4.
I purchased a 2013 and 2014 Moto G. My 2013 G is the LTE model so it's still on 4.4.4 and going straight to 5.1. The 2014 Moto G on 5.0.2 feels light years slower than my 2013 G on 4.4.4. It stutters and isn't as responsive and the animations are very jittery (for lack of a better word). I know the specs of these two phones are practically identical. I also know that Lollipop, in general, has been harder on systems than people expected. I'm returning the 2014 G b/c the software feels as cheap as it is, or worse. I'm concerned the 2013 G will feel the same after Lollipop, which is why I'm hoping to hear from a few who have the 2013 G and experienced it before and after Lollipop. I guess the only potential saving grace is that the 2014 G has more pixels to push with that ram and processor.
Thanks in advance.
Need to get a new phone as my current one (moto x 1st gen, which was amazing and faster and more responsive than S4) is starting to have some issues.
I'm considering the moto G 3rd gen but don't want anything less than my moto x (1st gen) perfomance, otherwise I will probably just go online and get another moto x (1st gen)
moto x 1st gen

moto g 3rd gen/2015
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Qualcomm-Snapdragon-410-MSM8916-SoC.111656.0.html
Comparison
http://system-on-a-chip.specout.com...S4-MSM8960-vs-Qualcomm-Snapdragon-410-MSM8916
It looks like it's slower than the moto x 1st gen. But does the fact that it has 4 cores as oppose to 2 cores change things in performance?
Please help me understand and if I should get the another moto x 1st gen or get the moto g 3rd gen/2015
thanks
hello, for the processors, the s410 is 64 bits, have an adreno 306.
The quadcore and adreno 306 will help you in few games.
Moto g3 is waterproof, have a bigger screen, a better camera, battery.
And finally is a new phone, so it's new
ps: choose the 2 gb ram versions.
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
