Ody-Ody:
Nanidee you are really funny. Actually i ordered for this phone on amazon.co.uk but the 16gb version. Since its out of stock, my delivery date is uncertain. But I'm patiently on the look out for it because its the best fone i can buy for the price of N40,960. But the uncertainty of its still delivery freaks me out. Did you get yours shipped to Nigeria or do u reside in the UK?

Hey Ody-Ody . When I ordered mine, the 16gb was not on Amazon. Besides, with my 8gb, I've used only 1.6gb for all the apps I downloaded and pics on it now . 8gb may even be too much for me. Lol. I experienced the 'stock thing' on Amazon when I ordered mine. I placed the order at about 12 midnight on 1st December, lets say 2nd December sha. But I was told that it would not be available till 6th of December. Surprisingly, 2 days later, I received an email saying my order has been dispatched and I got home on 5th to find my "beauriful" phone waiting for me. And no, I did not ship to Nigeria.

Trust me, its a nice phone. I downloaded the manual, and I am slowly reading it as the days go by. Too much info to digest at one seating

drizzypat: i tire o!! Bt what of the picture ,does it also take a guru u click snap on a fone??

See this one o... So tell me how you can snap your phone with your phone. Na wa o. I will hold the phone, and still snap the phone again, abi? Sorry, I no be "winshh"

Habeebpain: @nanidee I don't know if you are a geek but don't worry I'm here to help you out. Pre-ordered for mine last week, hope it arrives soon by the Grace of God. Had to wait for the international version. Fell in love with the Moto G at first sight. She's a beauty to behold. Love the phone so much, I've picked a name for her; MOTunrayO Gold. You can call her Moturayo. I've got plans for her though. Planning to take a cue from Mr Mobility's House of Mo and start my own geek diary that talk's about my adventures with Motunrayo.
When I get my phone, I'll help you with some stuffs. I'll update some specs and details later. Don't mind the derailers. This thread is going to make front page and we are going to do it TOGETHER.

Yaaay! Someone finally God-sent . I am far from a geek o. My first time using android . I still struggle with ordinary contacts every now and then, as I keep calling people by mistake all the time, Lol. Meanwhile I am still struggling to remove my first location on the phone, which has since been stored as my 'home'. To the extent that wherever I am, it tells me that it takes me 30 minutes, 1 hour, etc to get 'home', and the best routes to take . Men, I have tried to remove that place as my 'home' o... the thing no gree comot. And this is just one of my many struggles. Lol. Do I even mention this location thingy that keeps telling the whole world anywhere I am. (Sorry to sound razz. I have just never been that much of a 'techy' person ) But i am still reading the manual sha... na small small

I cant wait for you to get yours. Lol at Motunrayo Gold... . Nice one. Now, I'm thinking of naming mine too . Meanwhile, what do you mean by 'international version'?

Amazon updated yesterday that delivery is for after 25th Dec. Hmmm... I'm almost tired of waiting... I keep watching the review over and over to get a temporary feel of the phone... Lol...

Duh...isnt it rather obvious that I am not willing to 'snap the phone'?... At least not for the pleasure of your clique
You guys should look it up online

I can see myself gradually going back and forth on this thread. I REPEAT... "I am not advertising Motorola, I was interested in meeting other users". That being said, blondies are way smarter than the bullies on this thread. Its not by muscle!

25th? . Geez... But Did you consider buying directly from Motorola? You can get it on their site, and there's even free delivery to some locations. But then again, you just might be lucky to have it way earlier than 25th. Looks like they are receiving lots of orders.

Eyaah... Christmas present. Hehehe. Lets hope you receive it before 2014. Loool! Good thing is that its worth the wait.

No i didn't o. But i considered cancelling the order and placing it on phones4u but i learnt my refund wont be immediate. I'll wait.. I don't have a choice. Its worth the wait, like u said. I'll just miss it this christmas.

Quite frankly I don't really give a rat's a*s*s about the phone...I couldn't care less if you wanna snap anything or not...personally I don't really like the phone... I detest nexus devices in general... that being said, I think anyone that opens a thread about any new device in this section should provide the necessary info about the device... with pictures and screenshots included...that's how sh*t goes down in this section..and that's why chics aren't supposed to be opening threads in this section... that's why there's a romance section.... you chics can knock yourselves out there....

to think that were namesakes

Yeah...not a bad idea waiting. Tomorrow or next, you just might receive an email telling you that 'your order has been dispatched'. Let's keep our fingers crossed, anything can happen.

At least, you'll have it before 2014 . Please let me know when the little package arrives, so that you can teach me some things we can discuss on what it can or can't do

lol.. You are really a funny character. No ish bout that... I'll definately update you.

jazz04: Where to get this phone here in Nigeria please?

The phone isn't going to be released in Africa, except in Ghana. And that's next year. So it may be in Nigeria next year but not in large quantities.

Networks in the US operate on some bands or frequency that networks in other countries don't support. So some manufacturers usually make models for the two options. US version and International version. Buying the international version is usually advisable, so you don't end up with a phone that wouldn't work with your network operator's frequency. I have a friend who bought a certain htc phone that didn't support any of the 3G bands used by Nigeria.

Thanks for taking the time to explain

how many phones gets released in Africa? Dont we still get them brand new?

And Motunrayo's arrival date has been shifted again. I know we'll get to meet someday and never part (fingers crossed). Howdy Nani?

I've noticed this phrase: 'order has been dispatched' on this thread. Well in the US, i guess its the same as
'order has been shipped'.

I've been through the delayed order and order updates email from Amazon US. Pre ordered the 16GB Global GSM Motunranyo Gold on Dec 5, it was released on the 11th, delayed till 19th but later delivered on the 17th.


Habeeb, i told you already to stop dreaming about this your Motunrayo.
I'm sure it on its way to Naija nau, na the holidays go wan cause delay. Dont forget i can snatch credits for owning the phone from you sef.

jazz04: Where to get this phone here in Nigeria please?

While the phone is not going to be released in Nigeria, i can arrange it for you, at a cost albeit. or you can just wait till any of the retailers in Ikeja has it in stock.

The Moto G doesn't come with certain accessories like a charger. I was doing a little bit of window shopping on Amazon and I saw this Motorola charger and very cool case with an android circuitry design. The charger has 2 ports, so you can charge another device alongside it. There are other colors fur the case but I think Motunrayo will like a blue "dress". Charger sells for $12.90 while the charger sells for $5.68. Frebor can help get if you're interested.


Nanidee, I think the pink one will fit your phone nicely. Why don't we fix a date for our phones? We can have lunch together while they get to know each other.

Habeebpain...seriously? You've still not met Motunrayo? ...I feel bad. I wonder why it's taking this long... We are still waiting.

Yeah, the charger was kinda like an issue for me, because i always have to use a computer to charge, but i'm getting used to it sha. I just make sure the charger is always in my bag. And i noticed that when the battery gets so low, like 10% or so, the phone tells me one stuff i cant remember for now, and after that, the battery takes me for some more hours. Funny enough, I was searching for dresses for this baby, but I didn't find any. Her clothes are not yet in many shops...or maybe its where I live

Meanwhile, my baby (still thinking of a name for her) is slowly getting impatient from waiting for Motunrayo gold. She's now beginning to think she's being put on a looooong thing, Lol. She therefore decided to explore the world a bit and discover her purpose in life, and guess what? She learnt how to take selfies ... (Geez...I'm feeling like a pro

all I need is a casing for my moto g. WHR else can I gt other than amazon?

Okay, its a cheap phone, and so what?

It certainly looks expensive to me, and its soooo sleek, I just feel like stroking it all night long. Definitely does not look the price. I am yet to turn it on, because my sim can't fit into it, so I have to request for the micro sim

I have been fussing about this phone even before it arrived, having watched and read fantastic reviews about it. Besides, you can't go wrong, considering the price of the phone. With a 'less than N40,000' phone, you can't help but love this phone. Its a good decision, besides it will be my first android phone ... Yeah, I dont care what you think about that , what's important is that I have finally seen the light.

So, fellow moto g users, come in here, lets discuss our cheap, but powerful phone

Do you have it?
