As we already discussed about the Moto X 2014 and mentioned the little brother i.e. the Moto G 2014, I guess it is time that we introduce the Moto G 2014 as well. The Moto G 2014 was announced alongside the Moto X 2014. Though it may not be the equivalent as its big brother but it does its job just fine.
The thing about Moto G isn’t about the specifications and power. It’s about a great phone in a relatively economical price. Before moving to the design of the phone, we would like to write down the specifications for you.

The Moto G 2014 also adds more ingredients to the given recipe. The once 4.5” display has now been replaced by a 5” screen of the same 1280 x 720px resolution. The camera has been upgraded from a 5MP shooter to an 8MP. And what is more important, is the price. It is still priced as its predecessor.
Motorola has retained the same core feel of the phone. The phone still has the same body materials and design. But in addition to its predecessor, they have added a few goodies like the stereo speakers above and below the screen.
The Moto G 2014 comes in two basic body colors, i.e. White and Black. But then again, like the Moto X 2014, it also comes with a variety of back panels.
Here are some pictures of the Moto G 2014 and back panels.
