Motorola 'leaks' Moto G with 4G, bigger battery
NEW DELHI: Motorola briefly listed a new variant of the second-generation Moto
G smartphone, which features a bigger battery and 4G capability, in Brazil.
However, the details of the model have been removed from the website now; there
was no word on the pricing of the model at the time it was listed.
On the Moto G listing page, the Motorola Brazil website earlier mentioned the
4G LTE capabilities under the headers of storage capacity, dimensions, screen,
networks and bands. The website listed that the battery capacity of the 4G
model will be 2,390mAh, compared t o the 2,070mAh battery of the current
model. Below is the screenshot of the listing, courtesy technology website

Moto G with a bigger battery and 4G would cater to markets where high-speed
mobile internet access is available at the moment. Though 4G is not widely
available in India at present, telecom operators like Airtel and Reliance Jio
Infocomm are working towards rolling out the mobile network in major cities.
Smartphone manufacturers are also eyeing the 4G rollout in India as the next
big thing for the market, with players like Huawei and Lenovo already
announcing plans to unveil budget 4G models. Xiaomi has already launched its
sub-Rs 10,000 Redmi Note 4G smartphone in the country. Therefore, a Moto G
variant with 4G capability will not come as much of a surprise, considering the
popularity of the smartphone and the imminent rise of 4G networks in India.
The second-generation Moto G is among the best smartphones under Rs 15,000 in
the market right now. It has a 5-inch HD display, Android 4.4 operating system,
8GB internal storage, microSD card support up to 32GB, 1GB RAM, 1.2GHz
quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, 8MP rear camera and 2MP front camera.
Connectivity options in the model available in India include 2G, 3G, Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth 4.0 and microUSB 2.0.

Motorola's Moto G had set the benchmark for budget smartphones with its great
build quality, good performance and an equally attractive price. However, the
underwhelming camera and lack of a storage expansion slot were the major pain
points sticking out like a sore thumb.
Motorola has tried to address these issues with the next-generation Moto G by
offering a budget smartphone that seeks to tick all the right checkboxes.
We got the opportunity to experience the new Moto G at the launch event and
here are our first impressions of the ne
