That’s because the Moto G2 actually runs Android 5.0 straight out of the box, and it’s said to be upgradeable to Android 5.1 as well. For a price of $236, it’s one of the cheaper devices capable of running this version of the operating system, and it should prove to be quite the good offer for those who want the latest Android features at a low price.
It remains to be seen if Motorola will continue that line and introduce even more mid-range devices with good hardware and connectivity options. It’s obvious right now that this has a lot of potential, and the company would be smart to invest more in this market segment.
Meanwhile, good reviews of the Moto G2 continue to come out, even though the device has already been out for a while. It’s clear that people want to see more of this, and if Motorola are keeping an eye on the market, it’s probably reasonable to expect that they’re preparing a new release for the near future.
