Continuing a spate of recent smartphone launches across all segments, Motorola has introduced its latest G-series phone for value-conscious buyers.

It’s available in three colours, the standard Urban Grey with a matte plastic body, and the Cobalt Blue and Olive Green options which have vegan leather rear panels.
