      the midrange is supposed to be a competitive place. In 2014, it looks like a vast wasteland of overpriced phones.

        Specs are equal to moto g and price is higher than moto x. A metal frame cost that much?

              Just because it looks like an iPhone 5 doesn't make it an Apple. Samsung needs to understand that.

                    Identical specs with Motorola Moto G 2014, but 3 times more expensive. Dead on arrival.

                      I like the phone but not buying as its too expensive, going for Redmi or Moto. Still holding on to mySamsung Galaxy S2.

                              Basically a Moto G with a slightly larger screen and better cameras. For more than twice the money.
                              I will not be surprised one bit if people will just skip this one.

                                  Samsung has lost it

                                    Ahahah...
                                    Samsung goes the Apple way

                                    Pricing mediocre as almost premium...
                                    They have a serious inferiority complex problem...

                                      Anonymous, 28 Oct 2014Don't quite like Samsung's new 'direction'. They seem to be... moreYeah they are definitely taking the customers for granted. We can be sure it will have no quick updates, if you're lucky maybe Android 5.0 as part of a single update effort 8-9 months from launch.

                                      The customers are fortunately not apple zealots and so they will vote with their wallets. This is happening already, there are way too many options right now. Regardless of how great Sony's Z3 maybe or LG's G2 or G3 or G4 or whatever Motorola has a better product overall because of one prime reason: 'Stock android' that facilities easy quick update rollouts.

                                      Apart from Motorola no OEM seems to give a damn about the non flagship phones when it comes to OS updates. How can they when they bloat it with their garbage UIs? Oh no they can't waste profits to support the customer who paid good hard earned money for those phones, that's bad for filthy shameless business.
