If you are wanting a device a little more pocket friendly than say the Galaxy S4, Note 3, Oppo N1 then you either look at an iPhone or 'mini' versions of phones! But the past couple of weeks we have been talking all about the new Moto G, a cheaper version of the popular Moto X with no compromises from the surface. Does the Moto G have enough to beat something like the Galaxy S4 Mini?

If you rely on paper specs than the Moto G will walk all over the S4 mini. It has two more cores, a larger and more pixel dense display, and it costs just a bit less than the S4 mini. The S4 mini has decent specs but its made out of cheap, fingerprint loving plastic while the plastic used on the Moto G feels more high quality.

The S4 mini is definitely smaller than the Moto G in every single department. Much thinner too. But the differences that lay in the software is also very important. Having the latest software is important for a lot of people and the Moto G is running Android 4.4 KitKat while the S4 Mini is running 4.2. That's what happens when Google buys you out!
