If you are orange pay as you go and you have credit on your phone (not sure if it also has to be for a certain amount of time) 'Phones 4u' will upgrade you for 99.95 and gave me a free Moto white clip on case with it...
And it looks fantastic when you take the black back off and replace it with the white one. It looks totally classy! So good it would spoil it to put a cover or bumper on it so hopefully will not have to
Good luck

Thanks, looks like a great deal. They are sold out right now, but I have 11 days in hand so will wait to see if they get stock back in.
Yeah you can thank HotUKDeals for that, we kinda bought them all
You can sign up for stock alerts on the Tesco Direct page, so that's probably worth doing. I paid £87.50 for an 8GB thanks to a £10 new customer discount and a few clubcard points.
Unlock was £5 from http://www.movical.net - brush up on your Spanish

Stock alerts on both models are primed and ready!
She only needs the 8Gb but at that price, it's worth paying the extra for the 16Gb

So looks like the one from Tesco are locked right? How about the ones from Phones4u?
Tesco yes, P4U no.
However the price difference between the two means it's cheaper to buy from Tesco and pay for an unlock code.

Wouldn't you depend on Tesco for system updates though? Yep, I know this is xda and it's not such a big deal if we can flash ROMs ourselves, but still...
Yeah, it mentions Tesco in the software version.
I'm sure that it wont be hard to replace with the 'unbranded' version though.

Hi all, I just watched some cheap phones and I saw this phone here: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/new-...re-GPS-GSM-3G-Android-Unlocked/738898065.html
Is this true? Does it really cost 11US with free shipping to my countery as it says? If this is no scam, than it's a miracle!
I heavily doubt its liability . I suggest you to not buy it .
Idk I am going to try to buy it or maybe any other phone in this list you see how cheap they are and getting selled by difficult sellers! http://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale...&CatId=5090301&SortType=price_asc&needQuery=y

Hey, if they are half decent I'll rip them apart and do something cool.

Thank you! For gods sake BUY A GOOD PHONE, not a cheap chinese brick. At least get a decent phone that could actually work.

Bulk cost of the phone's parts don't always set the price. OP's link could possibly be a liquidation of assets, the already low cost of the phones themselves (probably parts cost of around $30-40, assuming they are using rockchip or allwinner chipsets) would need to be cut down if they need to move product to make room for new stuff.
more importantly, Alibaba/ Aliexpress is fairly risk-free for the buyer.
Description says dual core where title says quad. This is probably a dual core rock chip with a quad Mali GPU like most Android TV Sticks. Screen is 800x480 on a 4.4"... but supposedly has Bluetooth.
I've been around the block with these Chinese products and while it may work, expect a slow and buggy experience. I'm sure it won't support all the needed cell frequencies and dropping connections left and right. For $11 though it may be fun to just play with. Looks like the default OS is MIUI which is kinda cool.
Expect lots of Chinese apps and without root... Your stuck with them.

Is this the moto g forum? I take it it is, but it looks so quiet!
I just got my moto g today 100 quid and I know the phone is very new on the market, but I thought it would have been a lot busier here. Not even the usual nice xda phone specs header on the main page?
Either I am very lucky in getting on of these phones quick or no one is buying them lol.

Today is the first day the Moto G is sold in germany officially, in other countries the same.
So enjoy being one of the first users
The Forum JUST opened which would be why it is so quiet. Also, it is just now being released in several countries. I am excited for when it finally hits the USA and I will probably pick one up!
Too bad the 16GB is not available yet. Btw: here in the Netherlands they ask 199 EUR for 8GB ...
Patience young one.
This device has only just been released, you got to wait till January when the US get it available. The flood gates will open then.

Phones4u.. they are the only ones that I could find in the UK that have the phone in the shops...
The other shops just said Moto what? idiots lol.
Anyway because my partner had an orange sim pay as you go it reduced the price to 99,95!!! and free white cover (phone is black) looks gorgeous with the white back and black front
I was shocked it was the last shop I was going to try as there seemed no chance anyone would have it :/ and bingo, they had it.
Good luck.

The dual sim 16 GB is around U$350 on the Motorola website, but you can find it for U$300 in other stores.

I hope it will be release in the UK soon so I could buy it.
Still dont know which color though... The white one look good but I dont like the glossy finish so probably I will buy the black version.
Is it cheaper than nexus 5?

No chance of it soon officially in the UK as a dual SIM probably not until early 2015. Also watch out if you omport one - the LTE bands may only work on EE.
Reviews of the device have come up online. Most are in Chinese but that should be easily solved with some Translate.

i saw this today and i also saw on youtube xda tv saying that mi4 will be available at $299 usdollar and i think its awsome price for the device
where is a safe place to get one from?
Amazon.com, where I got mine
I bought mine from ibuygou.com which is an official Xiaomi reseller and got great customer support from them
Realize this is old but both Oppomart and HonorBuy sell authentic devices.
I buy it yesterday for 200€ here: www.gearbest.com

No question. I was also able to snag a $259.00 64 GB Nexus 6 on Amazon's Black Friday deal for my wife. Couldn't pass this MXPE deal even with no motomaker. Plenty of custom cases and wraps to pimp it out later ?

So I see the deal at Amazon, and I went to check out MotoMaker... I see this pricing, can someone confirm or deny what I'm seeing?
It looks like MotoX Pure 64GB with a no-contract sim for a total of $319.98, Maybe I'm doing something wrong, or reading something incorrectly.

Yeah, I don't think moto maker is worth $150, but I guess it depends on how much you like the custom design.
Bought mine via Amazon on 11/30 for $399 - chatted with them online and asked nicely and they gave me $42.50 refund - not quite the same price but close.
Very happy!!!

Sold out already. Glad i made my decision quick.
