Moto G in review

Well my atrix HD took a dip in a mop bucket and decided to no longer be among the living. So today I used my fiancee's moto g now I played around with the bad lad for the past three months but today it was my device to use.

I will start with the "bad" She would constantly claim issues with the device. Most were fixed do to simple troubleshooting (clearing cache rebooting, etc),did I say most I meant all problems were fixed. Now for me to lavish praise on this phone.

There is a lot to say about this device I will start with weight distribution, I couldn't really hold the phone wrong and its weight was welcome in my hands and pockets .

The speaker phone still surprises me with its loudness, calls are quite crisp on both ends notifications come in well in a purse or buried in my pocket.

The screen I don't know I was used to color boost of the Atrix HD but it isn't an eyesore.

Battery life..my goodness I put her through the paces today with moderate light heavy use at full brightness got 3 hours screen on time well over 10 hours off battery , I made calls posted here a few times read articles bid on items on eBay played flappy bird got directions played more flappy bird downloaded bus schedules.

This phone took everything I could throw without a single hiccups

and her 3200 mah battery but the moto g is good makes me sad this moto g isn't mine . That "G"simply must stand for great because it is more than good thanks all
 
Coming from a low spec Stratsophere, the MG seems like the Nexus 5 or better. There was times I had to reboot the Strat a few times a day. Now I hardly ever reboot the G. And I may go a good day & half or so, before charging the phone. I'm very happy with it.
 
Unbalanced to you? Its top end heavy..ish so I always know where the business end is when pulling it out .but not so much that its unwieldy to no embarrassing holding it upside down screaming I can hear you!! Which I have done in the past
