After releasing the famous Moto X smartphone, Motorola announced the Moto G earlier this year. At the time, however, the Moto G was only for use on AT&T's network (US), so many consumers made other phones their top priorities. Google, however, has been known for its commitment to quad-core smartphones for a fraction of the price of other similar smartphones, so it announced the Moto G for approximately $180.

The Moto G smartphone has made its appearance at carriers such as Boost Mobile and US Cellular, but Republic Wireless is the next fortunate carrier in line. As of April, Republic will sell the Moto G for $149 off-contract, about $30 less than its retail price.
The Moto G comes with a 4.5-inch liquid crystal display (LCD) with 720p screen resolution, a quad-core, Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, not to mention 1GB of random access memory (RAM), and 8GB of internal memory storage while operating on Google's latest Android 4.4.2 KitKat update. Google, as you know, sold Motorola to Lenovo earlier this year, but the company is still committed to the Moto X and Moto G smartphones it released in good faith before the sale. Motorola has claimed in recent days that its Moto G, like the Moto X, cannot have its success attributed to Google. I think the fact that so many Google lovers took to Android tech sites to express their "well, I think the Motorola sale will make me return to the Nexus line" contradicts Motorola's statement to the press about its success.
One thing that makes the Moto G exciting on the Republic Wireless network concerns Republic's inexpensive phone plans. The Sprint MVNO offers plans as low as $5 and $10 a month for its services, allowing customers to pay less who route their calls, texts, and emails over Wi-Fi instead of traditional cell towers that require a cellular data plan.
For customers who want reliable 3G data with Republic's Sprint network, you will likely pay $25-$30 a month; for those who want unlimited 4G data, however, you'll only pay $40 or so a month – a pretty incredible price when you consider that T-Mobile offers smartphone users an unlimited talk, text, and 500MB data plan for $50 a month. It may be the case in your area that Sprint's Republic Wireless is not as reliable as T-Mobile, but it may be different. If Sprint's network (now with Spark) works better and is reliable in the ways you need it most, you may think about switching to Republic – especially if you consider the Moto X and Moto G to be two of the finest smartphones ever made.
Are you excited about the Moto G coming to Republic Wireless? Is this an option for a friend or family member you know? Feel free to let your voice be heard.
