Motorola Moto G (2014) Review

Brazil Dual SIM DTV (XT1063, XT1064, XT1068, XT1069, XT1072)     See other variants reviews Score: 61.7 / 100

Motorola Moto G (2014) is a complete phone launched in 2014, featuring a quite big 5-inches multi-touch capacitive display, a high-tech Quad-Core CPU ticking at 1.2 gigahertz, and two cameras, an 8 megapixels back facing camera and a 2 MP front side camera. Let's take a deeper view of what this cellphone can do.

The Motorola Moto G (2014) feels much lighter than what you would expect from a cellphone this size. The Motorola Moto G (2014) is quite a compact device, considering it features a 5 inches screen and it is just 5.57 inches long. While this cellphone is very thin it's not so slim as many other cellphones on sale, with a thickness of 0.43". Motorola offers this cellphone in black and white.

Motorola sells this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 system chip, backed up by a very powerful Quad-Core CPU clocking at 1200 MHz and only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little bit disappointing for a device of this level. Graphic intensive tasks often uses lots of processing time, so it has a 450 MHz Adreno 305 GPU to help handle those graphic tasks. A nice advantage of this device is its quite big 8 GB internal storage and a slot for an external memory card, which allows the user to install hundreds of games and apps without any problem.

This phone has two cameras, an 8 megapixels back facing camera and a 2 mega-pixels front camera. It also captures HD 1280x720 videos at 30 fps. Additionally, this phone's camera also features a lot of amazing characteristics like auto-focus, flash, face detection shooting, fast burst mode, geo tagging and HDR mode.

Motorola equipped this cellphone with a good looking 5-inches display, and a resolution of 1280 x 720 (HD), which makes everything look colorful and brightful. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

This cellphone includes wi-fi capability (although it can't be provided to other devices around, acting as a hotspot), HSPA+ (4G) internet connection, which is not as fast as LTE or LTE-A 4G networks and the fastest 3G connection type, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Motorola Moto G (2014) has dual sim so it can to use two different carriers or phone lines in the same phone.

The Motorola Moto G (2014) also includes many interesting features as Bluetooth (4.0), GPS Localization, FM Radio and TV Reception, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This cellphone comes with a 2070 mAh big capacity battery providing this device a good battery life.

This phone is not a good choice considering it costs $ 215, while many similar cellphones are a lot cheaper than that. This cellphone is probably a very good choice no matter if you need a work cellphone, are looking for a social device, will use it as a gaming cellphone or want this phone to take plenty of photos.
