We knew that Rogers and Fido would launch the Moto G with 4G LTE sometime this month. If you were eagerly awaiting its debut, there is good news today. It is now available from both carriers.
Moto G LTE is designed for all the things you want to do — taking and sharing photos, watching videos, checking scores, getting directions, listening to music… you name it. Moto G LTE also gives you choices. Different interchangeable backs called Motorola Shells2 can be switched out to reflect your unique style. Plus, you’ll have access to more than one million apps on Google Play™ to create your own mobile experience. Every detail is just how you’d like it.
As we said when we took a closer look at the Moto G with 4G LTE earlier this month, Motorola has improved on an already great entry-level device, the original Moto G, by adding LTE connectivity and a microSD slot to expand storage.
