Hello guys!
This is from techzei.com and a close source to us just confirmed that the Moto X would be launching in India (which means a global launch is imminent!) soon after the launch of the moto g! The source is a google India employee who claims to have seen the phone is person at their office.
it is currently under testing and the source is very close and personally we are 100% sure of the launch!
Expected release time is before the end of the 1st quarter 2013. sadly we wont have access to the moto maker though..
more about it over here
http://techzei.com/motorola-moto-x-is-coming-to-india-in-february-2014/
Actually I think they are targetting emergent markets, as it's available in Brazil since launch. Also on Peru and such.
I'd be glad if it launches globally though.

MotoMaker will make its debut in Brazil and other America Latina countries sometime in January. It will be fully available for Brazil and Argentina, where they're produced, and partially (less options) in other countries.
Can't wait for it!

Ah that would've been a month and a half ago!
Stock Moto X XT1058
Im so glad that now we´re having some attention! Like so much my white X but with Motomaker i will have to say goodbye to him.
Moto G2 is set to be announced on the September 4 event internationally, Indian announcement to follow on September 5 at New Delhi. It was a question whether Motorola would discontinue the moto g in favor of G2. Flipkart now announced that they are conducting the sale [of the] last stock of Moto G. So it is confirmed that the Moto G will be discontinued and its place will be taken by the Moto G2.
Moto G has been hugely successful in India. Moto announced that it sold over 1 million handsets through Flipkart till June. Moto is now the 4th biggest smartphone company in India, ahead of Nokia. They achieved this by just 3 handsets, most of the nmbers is because of Moto G.
Moto recently slashed Moto G’s price by Rs.2000 due to recent increase in competition (read Xiaomi Mi 3 and Asus Zenfone 5), making it more attractive for buyers and a nicer deal. Moto G 8gb model recently got out of stock recently and have not been replenished till now. It is to be expected that it was the last stock of Moto G 8gb version. Now, with Flipkart’s ‘Get yours before it’s gone!’ sale, it might be your last chance to get a Moto G.
Moto G2 has been in news and leaks for some time. In case you don’t know, G2 is said to feature a 5-inch 720p display with the same snapdragon 400 processor coupled with 1GB ram. Camera units might be a 5 or 8 megapixel primary with 2 megapixel secondary. It is also said to feature dual front speakers like the htc One. The price might be slightly higher than the Moto G.
Moto G 16gb is set to go out of stock soon and will be permanently unavailable soon. Flipkart is also offering 50% off on Moto G accessories in favor of clearing out stock. It is the best and last time you can get your Moto G, Buy it now or never!

I suppose the good news is that Moto G 2 appears to be essentially the same hardware as Original Moto G. That should mean it won't take much more work for Motorola to create versions of Android 'L' that work on both devices.
I don't care if this or that is discontinued, I just wish my little fellow gets a taste of Android L... Hope to see a new notification saying "New system update available".. That's all I want.. :crying:
Android L will be the last system update for moto g for sure.. In the future, when android M and N comes out, we will have to look at Cyanogen to have a new custom firmware...
Well,this is sad,because this device is highly known and a great quality device. I think it deserves to get android L at least,and for future updates we cant rely on Cyanogenmod,because currently do not have a high support. I dont know who this guy Ethan Chen is,but i know that dhacker is a great dev,and his support was better. I'm 99.9% shure that he would port L and future updates if he was an offical maintainer.
So in conclusion,we just need barebone android L image and the majority of us will be satisfied.
The Moto G will get the Android L upgrade and i guarantee it. Motorola is still not fully with Lenovo yet. And i read since that Moto's software is near AOSP it should be easy for them to upgrade us soon, but since the Moto G2 is coming out we may get it like a week or two later. Remember how we got kitkat on December 24 even though Motorola said it was coming early 2014 or something like that?
bummer... many people have bought moto g on my recommendation. they are going to kill me.
lets hope android l is in cards and custom roms continue to flourish... cant upgrade my phone yearly

That's true, since this is a worldwide well known device, it should receive L, because it would be a great hit between customers. But if you think, maybe if falcon is discontinued, for Motorola won't be necessary to upgrade the device to L since moto g won't be available anymore.
But, if Motorola wants to be recognized as one of the best device maintainers talking about updates, they must consider upgrade falcon to L. Then, Motorola users, with no doubt, will gen a moto in the future instead of buying another phone.
Larger screen on g2 with same resolution translates to lower PPI. Only significant change is the camera.
I actually bought the g for the smaller screen and 720p quality . I already have the s3 and s4 which are slightly uncomfortable to hold in one hand due to their larger screens . I also have the moto e which is as good as the g. You won't find much difference in the moto g and e for daily use except if you need the front camera for video calls then moto g does not have it . Sorry for being slightly OT .
moto g will get android l

They aren't discontinuing it until they release the Moto G2. So it isn't like you won't be able to get one for the same similar price and hardware.

Yes they are (May be in India for now), Flipkart is the exclusive online retailer for Moto g in India. They confirmed and is now selling the last stocks they have from Moto. **sale is still going on**

Yes, and the Moto G2 is coming out in a few weeks. So there is no great loss. This is what happens when new generations of phones come out.

isn't it a loss for someone looking for a good small sized handset? Not everyone is the fan of a 5-inch device.Right?

Sure. But if the phone size itself is the same, I think most people will be fine with it.
So one company announces it will stop selling Moto G's in favour of the G2 and the community think that is equivalent to the G being discontinued? Oh, by the way, here in the UK, carphone warehouse have listed the Moto G in their stores as "new". Just for the record.

May be. But the leaked images shows a slightly bigger phone right? Bezels are also not that thin like G3. So how can you expect a device of similar size?
Check your updates from Play Store!
It seems like this is our present after todays new announced piece of hardware!
Discuss if you'll keep your current Moto G or upgrade to the 2014 edition!

No.
Not purchasing new hardware BUT did take advantage of the significant price drop today on the 4G LTE version at Amazon...
I asked Motorola support about why the Moto g5 isn't getting any updates in the UK and they said this! So hopefully good news is on the way!
The precision about Moto G5 Plus here makes me wonder about the G5...

There is currently no Lenovo partner in the UK (according to posts on the G5 Lenovo forum), until there is, no Motorola phone on Retgb will get any updates apparently.
I'd guess there was a partner in 2017 as my G4 got the March 2017 security patch on Retgb. That was before the G5 was released though.

I just powered on my G4 and got the December 2017 update, so i guess it is just Retgb G5's that are the problem.

Well maybe not because the g4 didn't get an update for 9 months. 9 months was when the Moto g5 was released. So the g4 wasn't getting update in the UK like us but now the Moto g4 in the UK got an update so hopefully that means the UK version is back in action for updates!
I must admit. I have had my UK Moto G5 retgb since the first week it was realised. Thats nearly coming up to a year soon and not ONE update!. I have had many phones over the years LG, Samsung etc... And thought that with it being classed as "stock android" would mean I would get updates quicker. Yet, this is the first phone I have EVER purchased that has never had one single update. Even my old, old LG Optimus 2x got more updates and I thought nothing could be worse than LG with updates?!. I appear to be wrong and what is more frustrating is that my partner who got a Honor 6A just had a 513mb update for security patch December 2017. Yet mine is stuck on January 2017!!!!.
I don't mind Oero etc... What I do mind about was buying a cheap phone that I bought with me being lead to believe that as it's near to stock android it would gets updates not far behind Pixel phones as there is no bloatware. With the promise of updates being pushed to the handset within 2 years, so felt safe in the knowledge of it being updated without needing to root etc... It seems to me that Lenovo/Moto brand are more interested in turning out a new variant 1 a month. Tbh, I believe they will give 1 update to Oero and that's it!. Am just disappointed more than anything from Lenovo/Moto!!!!.
