Moto G 2015

Moto G 3rd generation 


Moto G 3rd generation also known as moto G 2015. Choose the phone that's always there for you. From  £179.00  price started.

Features you'll love

Water-resistant. Worry-proof.


You need your phone to be there for you, even in less-than-ideal conditions. IPX7-rated water protection keeps your phone safe from splashes and drops in water.* After an accidental splash into a puddle or sink, just dry off your phone and keep going.

Corning® Gorilla® Glass display


You need a phone that can stand up to your demanding lifestyle. Corning® Gorilla® Glass spans Moto G from nearly edge to edge to help keep your phone protected from unsightly scrapes and scratches.

All-day battery


The new Moto G is designed to last a full day, and then some. With a 2470 mh battery†, you can go about your jam-packed day and not worry about battery life. Go to school or work, visit with friends, then head out for the evening - and still have enough juice to get home.

Customise your Moto G


Make your Moto G your very own by choosing your front, back, and accent colours in Moto Maker. You can even engrave your name or a phrase on the back. Buy additional Motorola Shells to display different colours—or a Motorola Flip Shell to protect your phone front and back.

Get the best performance with a pure Android™ experience.


Moto G runs Android™ Lollipop, free from unnecessary software that slows you down.

Notifications at a glance


Moto Display lets you preview notifications and updates. Decide which ones you want to see. Play and pause music without unlocking your phone.†† Nudge your phone to see what’s new, then go to the app — or leave it for later.

Your phone does it for you


Moto Assist understands where you are and what you’re doing, and adapts in ways that help you. Like letting only highest-priority calls through while you’re asleep, or keeping your phone silent during meetings.

Go ahead, do it all.


With a fast Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 410 processor, 1.4 GHz quad-core CPU, and advanced Adreno graphics, you can switch back and forth between your favourite apps without slowing down.

Sharp details. Stunning HD.


With a sharp 5" HD display, every photo, video, and game looks its best. Experience vivid colours, deep blacks, and crisp whites—even outdoors.

Speed without overspending.


The new Moto G gives you the blazing-fast speed of 4G LTE. So you can browse the web, stream music, play games, and watch videos. 

Great shots. All the time.


The new Moto G delivers high-quality photos in any environment. Even in low light, the ultra-fast f2.0 lens produces crystal-clear images, and the colour-balancing dual LED flash preserves colour and clarity. What’s more, High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging helps you capture both the brightest highlights and darkest shadows, just as your eyes see them.

LG G4 vs. Apple iPhone 6 Plus

LG G4 vs. iPhone 6 Plus


The LG G4 is a phablet that can almost pass for a "regular"-sized smartphone. Let's see how its features and specs compare to those of the iPhone 6 Plus.

Size


This is what we mean by the G4 almost passing for a standard smartphone, as it's 6 percent shorter and 3 percent narrower than the iPhone 6 Plus – despite both having 5.5-in screens.
The G4 is 38 percent thicker, though that number is a little exaggerated, since the G4 has a rounded back (measuring only its thickest point) while the iPhone's thickness is uniform.

Weight


Thanks (mostly) to that smaller size, the G4 is also 10 percent lighter than the iPhone 6 Plus.

Build


There are two versions of the G4: one with a leather back, another made of plastic.

Colors


Within each of those build categories, LG gives you two color options to choose from.

Display (size)


Both handsets have 5.5-in screens.

Display (resolution)


The G4 gives you a much sharper picture, with its Quad HD resolution.

Display (type)


Both phones have IPS display panels.

Fingerprint sensor


The iPhone uses Apple's excellent Touch ID fingerprint sensor, for securing your phone, logging into supported third-party apps and using Apple Pay.

Camera megapixels (rear)


The G4's rear camera has the higher resolution, but that won't necessarily make it a better camera. Stay tuned on this front.

Camera megapixels (front)


The difference in pixels here is huge, though, so it's probably a safe bet that you'll take better-looking selfies on the G4.

Camera aperture


The G4's rear camera also has a wider aperture, which is often a good hint that it will fare well in low-lit conditions.

OIS


Both handsets also have Optical Image Stabilization for their rear cameras.

Laser autofocus


The G4 brings back one of our favorite features from the LG G3, its laser-based autofocus. It quickly and automatically measures the distance between camera and subject, and (almost immediately) takes a shot with that part in focus. On the user end, it's as simple as tapping the point on the screen where the subject is.

Battery


The G4 has the higher-capacity battery but, similar to camera resolution, we won't know if that means anything until we put it through the paces. Stay tuned.

Removable battery


The G4 does have the perk of letting you swap its battery on the go, a quality that's becoming increasingly rare in Android phones.

Storage


There's no internal storage decision for G4 buyers, as 32 GB is your only option.

MicroSD


The G4 does, however, have a microSD card slot.

RAM


The G4 triples the iPhone's RAM.

Processor


On paper, the iPhone's core count and clock speed looks dated by at least two or three generations. But that's a little deceiving, as Apple's mobile chips typically far outperform what you'd expect from their processor specs.

Software


The G4 has Android Lollipop at its core, with an LG custom UI on top of that. The iPhone 6 Plus runs iOS 8.

Release


The G4 has yet to launch in the US (and we don't yet have a firm release date on that), but it's already available in South Korea.

The latest iPhones launched last September, so we could be about four months away from Apple's next batch.

Starting price (full retail)


We still don't know what the G4 will cost outside of Korea.

Starting price (on-contract)


That includes on-contract pricing as well.

New Apple 12-in MacBook vs. Microsoft Surface 3

New 12-in MacBook vs. Surface 3


Apple and Microsoft each have new mobile computing products set to launch soon, both of which might tickle your fancy. 

Desktop apps


To avoid any confusion, the Surface 3 is different from the older standard (non-"Pro") Surfaces, which didn't run full Windows. The Surface 3 does, so all desktop apps are fair game.

Size


The new MacBook is 5 percent taller and also 5 percent wider than the Surface 3.
The Surface's thickness measurement isn't an even match, since it only includes the tablet. When you fold over its keyboard (equivalent to how the MacBook is measured), the Surface comes out to 13.6 mm (0.54 inch) – about 4 percent thicker than the MacBook.

Weight


Also adding its keyboard cover, the smaller Surface 3 comes out at 4 percent lighter than the new MacBook. Considering the Surface's face is 10 percent smaller, that should have the size-to-weight ratio working out in the MacBook's favor.

Build


The MacBook, like nearly every modern Apple product, has an aluminum unibody design. And like every Surface so far, the Surface 3 has a magnesium body.

Trackpad


This is still one of the best reasons to buy a MacBook, as Apple's big glass trackpads provide unparalleled quality. The new MacBook has a non-moving trackpad that will feel like it moves (thanks to Apple's new Force Touch tech). You can hit up our review of the latest Retina MacBook Pro for more on Force Touch.
We haven't yet used the Surface 3's trackpad, but it should be nearly identical to the one in the Surface Pro 3: solid quality and bigger than some, but still far behind the MacBook's pad in terms of size, materials and responsiveness.

Colors


Here's something new: Apple is giving you color options with the new MacBook. You can choose from the same silver, gold and space gray options that are familiar to iPhone and iPad owners.

Display (size)


The 12-in MacBook gives you 20 percent more screen than the 10.8-in Surface 3. Note the smaller bezels on the MacBook, as it gives you a better screen-size-to-face-size ratio.

Display (resolution)


Both displays should look very sharp, as the new MacBook is essentially the long-rumored MacBook Air with Retina Display (though it's lighter, thinner and underpowered compared to the actual MacBook Airs).
The Surface's pixel density is nearly identical to the Surface Pro 3's, which looks very sharp as a laptop and pretty sharp as a tablet (where it will usually sit closer to your eyes).

Touch screen


As a laptop/tablet hybrid, the Surface naturally has a touch screen. No MacBook, including this one, has ever used touch – relying instead on those excellent trackpads.

Pen input


If you like the Surface Pen on the Surface Pro 3, then good news: you'll get to use that same pen with this cheaper Surface 3. The only caveat is that, unlike with its Pro sibling, you'll have to buy the Surface 3's pen separately (for US$50)

Processor


Both machines' processors are compromised compared to higher-end Intel Core i5 and i7, and probably even i3, machines. Where they do excel is in power management and allowing for lighter and thinner devices.

RAM


This is a big advantage for the MacBook, as even the highest-tier Surface doesn't match its 8 GB of RAM.

Storage


The Surface's RAM options, by the way, are split up based on these storage tiers. And this is, as you can see, another big advantage for the MacBook.

Another item to note here is that the MacBook uses a faster SSD, while the Surface has a slower eMMC, like you'd find in many smartphones and tablets.

MicroSD


The Surface can make up for some of that, though, as it lets you pop in a microSD card. Like with the internal storage, though, remember that those won't be nearly as fast as the MacBook's solid-state drive.

USB


The new MacBook is an exciting new notebook that marries a high-res display with Apple's desktop software and an ultra-light and thin build. BUT … this category might make you think twice about buying one right now.
USB Type-C has the potential to be the future of data transfer on mobile PCs. It's reversible (there's no "right side up"), it's fast and it can work with a wide variety of hardware and accessories. The only problem is, right now, it's brand new – and you'll need adapters for just about every type of external storage and other accessories you might want to use. And, at the time of this writing, those adapters aren't even easy to find (hopefully Apple will have them in regular supply once the MacBook launches).
The Surface 3 has a much more common USB 3.0 port. And you can also use its microUSB charging port for data transfers.

Battery


Apple and Microsoft are using different metrics to measure their estimates, and we don't even know the specs for the Surface's battery. So consider this one a mystery until we review both machines.

Cameras


As a part-time tablet, the Surface has front and rear cameras. As a full-time notebook, the MacBook just has a front-facing webcam (that's, interestingly, in a lower resolution than every other recent MacBook webcam).

LTE model


This could be a big advantage for the Surface 3, as it's the first full Windows-running Surface that you can buy in a cellular data-enabled model.

Software


The MacBook runs OS X Yosemite, while the Surface 3 runs Windows 8.1 (and will get a free upgrade to Windows 10 once that launches).

Release


The new MacBook launches this Friday, April 10. The Surface 3 launches on May 5, with a wider rollout starting on May 7.

Starting price


The Surface may be trailing in a few key categories like storage and RAM, but you might find that it makes up for it here. Even with its essential keyboard and optional Pen, it's still $620 cheaper than the MacBook. If you like Windows at least as well as you like OS X, and don't mind using a microSD card for some of your storage, then the Surface could be worth a look before buying the new MacBook.
