Design wise, there are lots of similarities with the second generation Moto G and the new Moto E. The rear panel comes with a textured finish which gives a good feel to the device. The design of the 13MP camera, flash and the Moto logo also looks great. The curved rear panel also gives good grip to the device. The power and volume keys are on right side, the micro USB charging slot at the bottom and the 3.5mm audio jack at the top.
The front panel has the front 5MP camera, speaker unit, 5 inch HD display and the usual set of sensors. Overall, the build quality looks very good on the device. The phone also comes with IPX7 water resistance.
The phone comes with 5 inch HD display (1280 X 720) IPS LD panel and its the same what we saw on second generation Moto G. There is also corning Gorilla Glass protection and the touch response was good. The viewing angles are also very good with no change in colors when you tilt the display. Overall, we liked the display on the Moto G in the initial use. There is also the Moto Display feature which shows notifications even when the display is turned off. The phone comes with dual SIM card and has 4G LTE support. The phone also comes with 16GB internal storage which is expandable via micro SD card. The storage available in the first boot is around 11.05GB. There is also a 8GB variant with 1GB RAM.

The software is Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and it is stock Android and there is absolutely no bloatwares or games included in the phone.
