Motorola has announced the Moto G is the company’s highest-selling smartphone ever.
The £129 smartphone was launched in November 2013 to the critical acclaim of both the media and consumers, so much so that Motorola has crowned the budget blower its best phone.
“The Moto G has been the most successful, highest-selling smartphone in Motorola’s history”, said Motorola Senior VP, Rick Osterloh, during Motorola’s MWC 2014 event.
The Moto G is the most successful Motorola smartphone of all time
The first time you read that headline, you might be a bit surprised, but the more you think about it, the more sense it makes. Motorola has dropped quite a bit of interesting information today from the news about the next Moto X and a smartwatch in the works, to talking about the expansion plans for the current Moto X. But, Motorola also has an interesting tidbit on the Moto G.
According to Motorola, the Moto G is “the most successful, highest-selling smartphone in Motorola’s history.” On first glance, you might think that can’t be right, but by far Motorola’s best selling device was the OG Razr, which was not a smartphone. The OG Motorola DROID was also quite popular, but it was Verizon only and because of that, it was U.S. only.
