1. It's a BEAST and it's the best Android phone under 20K, let alone 14K, in India.
2. No issues with those at all. The deal isn't even complete officially and Lenovo is unlikely to interfere much with Motorola. So, I think it'll get Android updates beyond 4.4.2 as well.
3. There are MANY. Here's a list: https://motorola-mobility-en-in.cus.../filename/Updated MASC list - 04th Feb 14.pdf
4. 12.9GB for the 16GB variant and 5.5GB for the 8GB variant.
5. Camera quality is more than decent. I'd say best 5MP shooter I've used in my life.
Let me know if you have other questions. I bought the single-SIM global GSM variant for 16.5K, and it still was a bang for buck device even at 16.5K.

Thanks for your info.
I'm planned to buy Moto G 16gb dual sim from flipkart for 14k.

[Q] MOTO G 16GB vs MOTO G LTE 8GB

Hello guys!
I've been looking for a new phone and i've found a near perfect one, the moto g. What's been troubling me is the fact that I can't decide between the normal 16GB version and the LTE 8GB version with expandible storage.
LTE:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Moto-8GB-Si...TF8&qid=1408877579&sr=8-1&keywords=moto+g+lte
Normal:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Moto-16GB-S...TF8&qid=1408877579&sr=8-2&keywords=moto+g+lte
Price is only 10 bucks difference, and I was going to buy the LTE until I read that it has some problems with some sd cards, and i was wondering if i could get a replacement if my sd card doesn't work with this phone.
Or should I directly just buy the regular one with 16gb, even because it has more ROM support?
Does the LTE variant now have some ROM rupport?
Thanks!!

Expandable rom is always a added bonus . Go for it as it is newer than the standard g . Even the newer but cheaper moto g sans front camera has expandable storage . I have the moto e too it accepts all sd cards , not faced a problem until now . Hope i helped .

Yeah i know but i wasnt sure wether to buy the 4G version because if it doesn't work I only have 8GBs and wasted money!

Haven't had a problem with my Sandisk ultra 32gb card on the xt1045. Worst that could happen is you'll need to try another card. The 4.4.4 update is out now, which also might help.
Another nice thing is the lte model also has a gyroscope, for photospheres

I recommend the Moto G as it is practically guaranteed future updates to at least Android 5.0, also the Moto G has almost stock Android experiance with a better screen.
I personally own a Moto G (1st Gen) and love it so much I've recommended it to most people for a cheap powerful Android phone and I'm sure the 2nd Gen will not disapoint.
Also if price is an issue then go for the 1st gen Moto G as it should drop in price due to launch of the Moto G 4G and Moto G 2nd gen

But zenfone have 2gb ram but moto g 2014 have 1gb ram. Will it not give any performance effect?

Sometimes specs don't make a difference. I would pick the Moto G any day

Only 2GB of RAM

Pretty much all the specs that i read up til the phone being released where saying that there were two versions 16/32GB with 2/3GB of RAM. and i noticed my 32GB Flex 2 only has 2GB of RAM. but is the 2GB DDR4 upgrade better compared to 3GB or DDR3?
thanks guys

This is something I'm really confused about. I was going to buy the g flex 2 sim free here in the uk, but can only find the 16gb with 2gb of RAM. Is the 3gb version available in UK/Europe? Also, does anyone know if the European 32gb version work in the UK on 4G?

Anyone seen 3GB RAM?
I'm looking for 3GB RAM version too but... Korea Version Hong Kong Version US Version 32GB ones only have 2GB RAM... UK Version of 32GB is yet to be released. Im guessing it will be released with the red colour LG G Flex 2 in the UK in April. Fingers crossed.
Anyone seen 3GB RAM LG G Flex 2 yet?

Not sure if this is one

from what i was told by LG's BS customer service department that all of the G Flex 2's are only 2gb of DDR4 RAM.. but what i dont know is 2gb DDR4 better and faster than 3gb of DDR3
and what else confused me was that all during the CES show and everything else i read, said that it would have 3gb of RAM. so this has me confused and now im not sure if i will even keep the phone.

So... 32GB 3RAM LG G Flex 2 does exist! But not in...
US
UK
Korea
Hong Kong
But in Philippinse...?!
What kind of logic is this?!?!?!?!
I mean they did this with LG G3. They launched 3GB RAM G3 in Korea only and mobile geek did a test between the 2GB RAM and 3GB RAM. It showed that there was a bit of difference between the two in various benchmark tests... I really want LG G Flex 2 RED 3GB RAM!!! Why is it so hard to buy one?!?!?!?

my LG G3 had 3GB of RAM, but I have contacted LG several times and I keep getting different answers and its really starting to piss me off. I just dont understand that at the CES show they told all the reporters and everyone who was doing a show and tell on the phone, they all said there would be the 2gb and 3gb versions. So who the hell knows whats going on....

This happens with samsung as well. Korea is their test bed for devices and they tend to get slightly higher specs than the rest of us in the uk and us.
Could be down to the advanced lte modems they have in the korean model that they need the extra 1gb but to be honest ive not noticed any lag or ram issues on my uk model with 2gb ram.

Yeah thats true for Samsung... but this time LG is saying
16GB will have 2GB RAM
32GB will have 3GB RAM
But the Korean model... or US or Hong Kong 32GB versions doesnt have 3GB RAM
2GB RAM might not be a problem for now but a year later when Android OS 6.0 is out 2GB RAM wont be enough just like how 1GB RAM have difficulties running 5.0 perfectly with lots of apps.
I just dont understand why LG would lower the RAM for its "first SD10 Flagship phone" compared to its competitors like HTC M9 or Samsung Galaxy S6 or Nexus 6 or Huwawei or Meizu! EVEN OPO has 3GB RAM. At least give us a choice for 3GB RAN u know?

I just spoke to someone at vodafone UK and they don't even have the 32GB Model :crying: :crying: :crying:

what i havent figured out yet is, the Flex 2 is running on the new DDR4 RAM as to where everyone else is still running on DDR3. but what i dont know is, 2gb of DDR4 better than 3 gb of DDR3? this maybe why they did lower it, i dont know if the DDR4 chipset is larger in size or not, but could be that they couldnt fit 3gb of DDR4 in the phone

Who is everyone else? HTC M9 and Samsung Galaxy S6 have DDR4 3GB RAM. ASUS Zenfone2 even have DDR4 4GB RAM. True Nexus 6 has DDR3 3GB RAM but that was released last year. So I don't think there is point in comparison between DDR3 3GB RAM vs DDR4 2GB RAM. But I can tell you that DDR3 vs DDR4, DDRV4 is FASTER to process information through but ovusly 3GB RAM vs 2GB RAM, 3GB RAM can TEMPORARY store MORE stuff.
ITS THE AGE OF DDR4 NOW. SPARTA http://cdn4.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon14.gif

ok, my bad.. i thought the M9 was still running DDR3.. well then that is bull**** then... well i think i may be taking my back and looking else where this time.. I am alittle disappointed in this phone.. and I doubt there will be any updates anytime soon

EMEA version H955 16GB = 2GB
HK version H959 32GB = 2GB
US Sprint version LS996 32GB = 2GB
Korean version Fsomething 32GB = 2GB
Well... EMEA version H955 32GB (Red) hasnt been released yet.
Rumor to be coming in April and it seems like it may have 3GB RAM!
Fingers crossed!

Sprint LG G Flex 2 Comes with 2GB RAM (its 32GB model)
i just received my US Sprint LG G Flex 2 LS996 , its 32GB internal memory. but its comes with 2GB RAM.

3GB RAM LG G Flex 2 was released recently only of US AT&T verison! Guess no luck for Europe and Asia...

Up until that last post, I was sitting here like ".... I have 3GB, whats wrong with y'all?".
But I guess AT&T (H950) decided they wouldn't be getting it unless it had 3GB.

im looking also for the 3gb ram variant. the ones that are available here in the philippines comes only with 2gb ram.

I think you are right about being only version that has 3GB RAM is the AT&T (H950) version. I could not find any others that has 3GB RAM.

My LG G FLEX 2 ONLY HAS 1.8GB ram ?!? its a 3gb model ,

Hello my LG G FLEX 2 only has 1.8GB of ram, it says 1.8GB available and 1.07GB used.
I tried using Cpu-Z and Hardware specs, and it all said i got 1.8Gb free
My LG G FLEX 2 32Gb is a H959 model,
Guys i also know this is a 32Gb model because, i used 2.90GB from 23.22GB
I also checked that on my computer and it is confirmed that i have 23.22 GB overall, so why on earth do i only have 1.8Gb overall ram.
Guys please tell me how much u lot have left, and also tell me what carrier you are using.
and if someone got a h959 32gb please tell me what ram you got left. You can check on cpu-z
***ps. I have not rooted it, or flashed any rom before.
*** i also was on android 5.01 and then got an OTA update to 5.1.1 and i did it, so even an update didnt fix an issue

I have the H955, 16gb model (the amount used for the firmware image is ridiculous)
CPU-Z says I have 1840MB Total RAM. But it happen that CPU-Z for android is wrong.
Go in Settings/Application and go in the third panel (I'm not sure of the name as my phone is not set in english)
It will show the ram used by applications but also the ram usage. It won't show the total ram but do the math and you'll get the true total RAM.

you have the 3 GB...
1.8 Available means the rest is used by android system and currently running apps...

H959 32gb = 2gb ram
H955 32gb (at&t)= 3gb ram

H959 comes with only 2gb of RAM regardless of your storage capacity.

Guys how much is used for system of the 32GB? Mine is 9.51GB... Does it look right?

Same for me, but I have a 32 GB SD card so storage isn't a problem. I wished I had 3GB RAM though. I'm on H959

Hi guys,
what are the model number of the 3gb RAM variants?
