what's up everyone Jon render from TechnoBuffalo here and locked inside this diminutive little package is the Moto G the $179 smartphone it doesn't forego much in the way aspect Department so go take a first look at it unbox it and see if it's worth your very little smartphone buying buck so here is the teeny tiny little box for the Moto G part a smallest phone box I have ever seen nothing really that exciting about it though a picture the device on the front Motorola Google company and then some specs but we're gonna get into all of that depicting to remember when you take a look at this guy you consider it it's a hundred and seventy nine bucks which is about what most phones cost you on a two-year contract except this guy does not require a two-year contract so Motorola a Google company consider this sort of the kid brother to the Moto X got a 4.5 inch screen compared to the 4.7 screen on the X and inside as expected there ain't much there's a phone there's the charging cable it's a standard microUSB and some books you can remove the back plates and walks I'll show what that looks like in just a minute but let's take a look at this here phone and it feels exactly like a smaller Moto X which is to say it feels very nice go ahead and peel off this plastic part like can got you big plastic part alright so after much fussing I finally got that plastic off power the phone on and I'll take a little bit about the device and what it's got so you're looking at a 4.5 inches just a lit up screen 720 screen so that means 1280 by 720 Stephen getting the quick math in your head it's a PPI of if you said 326 you are a genius Android 4.3 at launch but I expect 4.4 to come here very quickly as it already made its way over to the Moto X being powered by 1.2 gigahertz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor so bear that in mind it's got a gig of ram on here it comes in eight or sixteen gigabyte flavours of storage if you want external storage you're gonna be relying on Google Drive they did give you 50 free gigabytes of space we've got a 5 megapixel camera on the back and a 1.3 megapixel shooter living right on the front 802 11 a B G and n Bluetooth 4.0 on here battery is that pretty decent-sized 2070 milliamp hours no NFC and it weighs a hundred and forty three grams or 5.0 four ounces let me go ahead go through the setup process I'll come right back and take a quick look we've got it all powered up and ready to rock and it looks like stock Android save for a few Motorola exclusive let's see what we got here in the App Department one of the big ones is moto assist I love that you might just gloss by it not even use it but it's great to use when you're driving in the car and of course does not come from a carrier so there is no carry bloatware at all motorola migrate and that's what we wanted to use that we first started transfers over all your business and quick office comes on here right out of the box so quick tour with advice we got nothing on the left hand side on the right hand side I've got a power and lock button sitting above which sort of reverse what we've seen usually of you are volume up and down which is a single button with a pressing on the top or the bottom for what you want to do top you got a microphone 3.5 millimeter headset jack and on the bottom that's where your charge and sync cable is gonna be let's go ahead and bring in just real quickly a Moto X for size comparison you can see the 0.2 inch difference here and from the back they look like little brother big brother it's definitely a little bit on the thicker side but not by much and a little bit of a sharper angle up at the top but other than that they feel really really similar you're probably thinking yourself I love the Moto X I love Moto maker cuz I could customize my phone can I do that with this well you can't do the Moto maker but motor doesn't want to be left out of the customization game you can't she replace this backplate I'm sure that looks like you just go ahead and go under where that Chardon sync cable is and you sort of just pry off the back and you can pick up different colors and options so you can still get that customization feel that you like the battery though you are not going to be able to get to and that's where your sim is going to live the back it is plastic but it's textured so it feels really nice and it's it's almost flush to the back of the phone I don't have any sort of given you push in so it feels of very high quality Motorola sent us a blue one this phone is sent to us from the folks at Moto's PR company so go ahead pop a blue one on you a splash of color and then boom I've got a new customized phone it doesn't look like it darn it seems really around it so you can't really even tell it it's removable backplate but does look like almost two phones are smashed together you got that two-tone color if you do a color backlight so bear that in mind but we'll put this phone towards face take a look at
