Noahz, 20 Aug 2014Hi guys, i just want suggestion from you. I hope you will help me to decide. :D What would... moreMotoG is far more comparable to Asus ZenFone 4 A450CG.

ZenFone 5 has more powerful specs. Also the user interface on Zen is way ahead of stock Android interface.

I had a chance to test Moto G yesterday, and it took me a day to think what to say about it. I can't say I liked it much.

Cam sucks, both front and back. Screen is not bad, the phone looks a little toyish, it does not really show high quality workmanship.

Overall I did not like it much.

Now I don't have Zenfone 4 with 4.5" screen and give a comment based on having used ZF4 (4") and ZF4 (5") so I would make Motorola to be far closer to ZF4, so probably similar or lower somewhat than 4.5" ZF4.

It certainly has a better battery life than ZF4 and newer OS. Fails on everything else though.

If not, check if the back cover is properly placed, as the buttons on the back cover must go over the contacts on the inside of the phone. So take off the cover and properly place it back, buttons side first.

Then try to press AND HOLD for a second or two, the 2 buttons at the same time, the power+volume down.

Hope this helps.
