$179 usd is not bad
given £135 = ~$216 and €169 = $238

its a decent cheap phone in the $200-300 market. Comparable to the Nexus 4. I would highly reccommend this phone to anyone looking to enter the low priced android market.

My Aunt just picked this up for $150 no contract/tab and I got a chance to play with it helping her set it up and unlock.
For the price the phone is super slick. Fast, nice quality feel, good materials. For basic email/surfing/video smartphone, this is a great choice.

That's good, cause I'm with telus
Edit: went to the Telus location at oakridge. Sales rep says they aren't selling the Moto G straight up with no term contract (despite the Telus website offering it). Even though I'm with Telus...tells me I HAVE to either extend my contract or join a new one to attain the phone (@ $0, I just want to pay 179.99 for the damn thing)

I'm hoping this trend of cheap smartphones continue. My S3 is starting to show its age, but at least it's not on fire like the S4's |

I need something before I leave in April, or just to get it in HK. It's about $18xx HKD retail and only $150+tax here, so this was my first choice. Wanted to get him the red rice one from HK but stock is horrible to get a hold of, was considering it because it was cheap and had an elderly/magnified mode. This Moto G looks more reliable and longer lasting anyways. If it's needs flashing to another ROM to get Chinese on there, I need to do it sooner than later to make sure everything works.
About the Nokia X, I was reading how it'd be a poor experience w/o the GAPPs. Will wait for the reviews I guess.
