Motorola Moto G Google Play edition softly became available for purchase in United States. The characterful smartphone with stock Android is priced at $179 for the 8GB version and $199 for a device with 16GB of built in memory. The dual-SIM Moto G also has landed in Australia now. The Moto G (CDMA) will be available in the US in January through carriers as previously announced. See the official Motorola website for more details and contact your carrier for compatibility.
The Moto G Google Play edition can be used with the HSPA bands of AT&T and T-Mobile in the United States. LTE connectivity is not accessible, though its existence should barely be a deal breaker in this budget.
