        Am I the only one who hates that this thing has the same name as the LG G5. I mean was there no other name available?

Anyhow I'd recommend a Moto X Style currently and if you want better battery then X Force. That's good enough under $270 if you need to go above the $200 for Moto G. Of course you may need a responsive fingerprint scanner, if you do go get a G4 Plus or Z Play.

              J3 it's the last Samsung you can buy with decent performance (if you find at right price like me), above that there's only shit phone, I advice you you search to buy J5 becuase it's better with marginal price bump (probably in sale right now the 2016 version).

                  I think before Lenovo has taken over motorola, Moto used to update its phones to Two versions of Android but now it's clear that like any other manufacturer Moto will update its devices to only next Android version after that you are done. OS update was used to be one of the main USP of Motorola....

                        this is going to be crap. unless priced correctly, I can't see me selling many of these.

                        I'll literally stick to the G4/E3 and then jump over to the samsung J3 & J5 after until such times as moto's new E comes out and sell that to those who normally went for the Gs.

                          the G4 was provided with a 24W charger and the G5 with 14W charger.
                          And G4 had the same 3000mah battery with it
                          and the camera was 16mp/5mp and G5 has 13mp/5mp
                          Now thats a degrade!!

                            You can see on the 2nd picture, there is also 'NFC : ASK'
                            Maybe this is also like G4 Play, the NFC is not for all variants.

                              so its basically a z play sans the mods and a 15% lesser battery bring it on moto

                                Specs are good, can be improved but I'm ok with them.

                                    Not entirely true. There are variants of the G4 Play (e.g. UK variant) which include NFC.
