The Motorola Moto G is quickly becoming a very popular device. In fact it was recently named Motorola's most popular smartphone of all time. Even though it lacks LTE connectivity, its stellar battery life, overall performance and affordable price tag have led the device to rise in popularity. Now the Moto G is headed to the Wi-Fi-hybrid-cellular carrier, Republic Wireless, where it will cost just $149 free free of contracts.
For $149 you will get the 8GB model, whilst the 16GB variant will cost you $179. Other specs include a 4.5 inch HD touch display, a 5 MP rear camera, a 1.2 MP front facing camera and is powered by a quad-core 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor with 1GB of RAM. Republic will also offer a variety of color backs for your Moto G (sold separately).
Republic Wireless offers some amazingly low plans, which can cost as low as $5 per month (Wi-Fi only plan). There is also a $10 per month plan which adds unlimited talk and text on cellular. $25 per month throws in unlimited everything, Wi-Fi and cellular (data is throttled after 5GB).
The Motorola Moto X was introduced on Republic Wireless back in November, bringing solutions like improved Wi-Fi-to-cellular hand-offs. It is assumed that the Moto G will offer these same solutions. Since Republic’s disposition is as a Wi-Fi-first network carrier, you cannot bring your own device to take advantage of the mobile savings. However, $149 for a contract-free device certainly might make the transition easier.
