Flipkart launched the most awaited Moto G on 6th February 00:00 and within minutes the product was sold out. The Moto G with 8GB internal storage was priced at Rs. 12,499 and 16GB for Rs. 13,999 – with launch day offers.
The Moto G got listed even before 6th Feb, i.e. on 5th Feb at 23:45. However the offers were applied only after 00:00. The Moto G 16 GB version that was available a few minutes after the 8GB version, got sold out in about 20 minutes. The 8GB version got sold out within 60 minutes.
I guess Flipkart had about 5000 16GB units and about 10,000 8GB units. I had also ordered the 8GB version and expect it to be delivered on/before 10th Feb. There is indeed a mad rush for the Moto G smartphone. It is not just the specs but the price too that made it to the hot selling fame.
Moto G was launched on 5th Feb in association with Flipkart – their exclusive online store partner. Am not sure if this handset will be made available on other online stores or offline stores (local stores). And really don’t know the fate of consumers who pre-booked the same from Snapdeal.
Moto G (8GB) – Rs. 12,499 | (16GB) – Rs. 13,999.

Hi Gogi. I got my 16gb Moto G. I face a issue – wifi is not getting connected/ if connected disconnected again in 2 secs. Are any one facing such issues.
Any suggestions to resolve this Gogi ?
Gogi Rana
Hi no am not facing that issue. There is a battery saver option in battery just check if that is enabled (on mine I have set it to off)
Dilip
Hi.Thanks for ur reply gogi ji .
I too have set off battery saver option in my device.
When contacted flip kart regarding this issue , got a reply as ” Many users reported the same WiFi connection issue . Moto will fix it with a software update . ”
I am confused how much time they may take to fix this . Also worried I may get my product replaced since its a manufacturing defect 🙁

I downloaded the 1.6GB Asphalt 8 game I did not face any issue. Did this happen when the phone is in standby and you are downloading the files. Cause it happened once on my handset. After a long time when in standby mode the download stopped but as soon as unlocked the phone the Wi-Fi started and download resumed.

Hi Gogi .
1. Went to Settings-> Made wifi ON -> It showed my available wifi network [ secured with with WPA (WPS available ) ]with full signal strength.
2.Clicking the available wifi Ex. BSNL XXXX
SIGNAL STRENGTH shows as Excellent
Entered PASSWORD and clicked on connect.
3.BSNL XXXX gets connected.
signal strength is 1 bar( saved,secured with WPA )
Automatically disconnected in few seconds, getting AS “CONNECTING..” Then get 1 signal bar with as ” saved,secured with WPA “. The process repeats as a cycle.
I do not face any issues while I connect my SONY XPERIA M .
Dilip
Also I tried Factory Reset, Switch OFF/ ON process .
In advanced Settings of WI FI
1. Keep WI FI on during sleep is selected as ALWAYS.
2. Avoid poor connections ( Checked with both ticked and ubticked options )
Gogi Rana
Hmmm… no I did not face this issue, and I just checked the handset again (Wi-Fi is still on) and get very good signal same as on my Note 2.
Dilip
Thanks for your reply Gogi ji.

Login to the wifi router admin link and reboot the router. The issue sometimes could be with the router and not the handset.
Dilip
Thanks Ajith

Gogiji,
One thing I ask you between LAVA Iris 30 Pro & Moto G which is better? The most common among them is Gorilla Glass Protection, which is missing with other phones of this range. Of course regarding CPU of them which on is better u can tell. Though the price of Lava is higher, it will definitely come down in couple of days.

First flipkart said they would ship it on the 17th(ordered 6 feb) and now they have cancelled the order citing unavailability. While they still continue to sell it. If they did not have the stock why on earth let me buy it then? utter nonsense.
