Motorola Moto G 8GB £99 at Tesco BACK IN STOCK!!

Lisaberry

My unlock code also came through in 5 mins. Seller was MHz.technologies.ltd

I've been comparing the phone to my iphone 5. You tube vids look better on the moto, need to get to grips with the camera but looking good so far!
Need to turn it off and put it away now as it's not for me lol

Bigger screen on the Moto but crucially the very same pixels per inch! Here's an idea - sell your iPhone 5 for £000s and get another Moto G for yourself. The profit will ensure an extra nice Xmas Chez Lisaberry.

Back in the days before smartphones I was the girl that would have 3 phone contracts running at once because I couldn't bear to have the same phone for 12 months (lol at 12 month contracts seeming so long). I also used to end up buying weird unknown branded phones as they had the latest tech in them so I'm actually surprised that I've had my iphone 5 since launch day and haven't got too bored yet.
I'm itching for some kind of mobile advancement that gets my palms sweating again...curved screens and 4100000000mp cameras just don't cut it

Not sure why I'm rambling on, think I'm just enjoying the new phone buzz after a 15 month dry spell. I still love my iphone, and £100 quid in my pocket isn't quite enough to send me back to Android. Dipped my toe in with the Galaxy SII....they're all pretty much the same aren't they?

Just managed to pick a 16gb up from the local Tesco. Very impressed so far.
Got a super quick unlock code in about 5 minutes from Ebay, so all unlocked.
There's no customisation at all, so apart from the Tesco network lock - there's no Tesco bloat at all.

While there is no Tesco bloat, it is Tesco specific firmware. That does open the for for future bloat and delayed updates (not saying it will happen, just it could).

You can mitigate that by installing the unbranded firmware, though.

yep, got one using a hot uk deals voucher.

not the very last word in cutting-edge technology but unbelievable value compared to what preceded it.

not dispatched yet - hoping that stock holds out etc.

If you put it on your knee, face-down, then press on the centre of the back with your thumbs while lifting the back around the USB port with your fingers it come off quite easily.

It's simple once you've done it once.

You're lucky you've got 3 hands by the sounds of things.

The stock rom seems to have some niggles, so I'm going to leave things as they are for the moment. If Tesco does try to install any crap with an update, then I'll look at moving. Hopefully they'll have sorted the stock rom out by then anyway.
