 Hey guys, this is Chris Welch with The Verge here in New York City at the Motorola event and we're here with the new Moto G, the 2015 model. This is the company's most popular smartphone. The Moto X is the flagship, but this is the one people buy more often because of its price. The new model is going to be $179 for an 8GB model and then you can also get a 16GB model for $219. You can order it online at Best Buy, Amazon, Motorola right now and you can customize the Moto G through Moto Maker for the first time. There are 10 different batches to choose from and you can also buy 5 different colored shells. So the phone feels a lot more premium than the last model. You've got metal here on the back and it's plastic sides, but it feels very durable. So the new Moto G is water resistant up to 3 feet for up to 30 minutes long so it can take a dive in a pool. And on the inside you've got microSD card support so you can put in cards up to 32GB in size so you can add quite a bit of storage if you're not happy with the 8 or 16GB you can buy it with. So the camera here is based on the same one in the Nexus 6 which costs a lot more money, but Motorola says they've made some improvements here and this is a really fine camera for what you pay. The Moto G has a pretty stellar camera inside. And up front you've got a 5 megapixel selfie cam as well, so that's there. And it's wide angle which is nice, you can fit in quite a bit. So the Moto G ships with Android 5.1.1 which is the most recent version and it's got all of Motorola's usual software customizations and enhancements, Moto Display, Moto Assist, all the great stuff you'd expect that's in the Moto X but also here as well. So you can see why the Moto G is so popular, it's a great value for the money and we expect this model to be just as popular, if not way more so, than the previous models you've seen already.
