Just when we thought Xiaomi brought about a revolution with their $130 quad-coreXiaomi Hongmi smartphone, a certain JiaYu perhaps took offence and decided to redefine the term ‘low costquad-core phone’!
The only gripe at this moment is that the JiaYu G2F will initially come only with TD-SCDMA support, with a WCDMA variant scheduled for release later. The device will go on sale in China 5th December, priced just 499 Yuan. To remind you of its specifications, it will come with a 4.3 inch 720p IPS screen, 1.3GHz quad-core MT6582 processor, 1GB RAM, 4GB ROM and an 8 mega-pixel rear and 2 mega-pixel front shooter. The phone will be powered by a 2,200mAh battery and will run LewaOS out of the box.

The prospect of a sub-$120 (internationally shipped, hopefully) is really exciting! Do you see the JiaYu G2F as your secondary ‘mini’ phone? Let us know!

out of stock at the moment but it goes in an out of stock each day. Best value phone on the market, similar price to chinese equivalents but it comes with stock android 4.3 with 4.4 coming by january and it has a qualcomm quadcore instead of mediatek so better rom support.
Hello, can you confirm that once I’ll unlock it I’ll be able to use in EU(Romania)? Thank you!
i don’t know, you will need to go to the motorola website and see what frequencies the phone supports and find out what frequencies romanian networks support.
It looks like people in the US wouldn’t be able to buy one of the moto g. =/
you can buy one from motorola’s own website for ~$200.
I bought my SPH-L900 Note 2, like new with a like new body glove case for $200 a year ago from craigslist… Why would I spend $200 on a moto g, lol!!! There are better choices posted on this site for around $121-125, I just don’t remember off the top of my head… w/larger screens too…
For the UK and Europe, what is better than the Hongmi WCDMA, with the same specs and for $202? I mean, 8MP camera, expandable memory, sweet processor and GPS that works in Europe? I was looking at the ZP980 but it’s out of budget. Maybe the G3T? Please advise.
hongmi wcdma is the best deal you can get for that money, but the problem is to get it since it’s not available even in china these imaginary xiaomi phones released in thousands with preorders, lotteries and other crap just to build hype and sell few pieces until manifature expenses go lower and just then when competition already catch on after months to start real mass production. so yes xiaomi is great if you can get it but sadly not real offer, FAEA F1 and other phones are more real
Oh, didn’t know? I thought it was available on SpeMall http://bit.ly/19b2M7A
