(sorry if this is in the wrong spot)

 

So, this morning, to my dismay, my Lumia stopped detecting it's sim card. As such, I have begun my look into a new phone, and the Moto G seems to be a rather good option. However, Australia is horrible when it comes to finding tech, and as such I'm trying (and failing) at finding a 16 GB Moto G, so I was wondering if anyone on here knew where to find one.

Isn't there any other smartphones on the market that are in your budget?

Probably. I just have no idea of any that are good.

What's your budget? I don't have an inkling for your price point in australia.

@elecxonica I have in mind that you could get a iphone 5C or iphone 4s but that's for you too decide.

I did check-up the Moto G and looks pretty sweet. (I encourage you if this is the best pick buy it or find somebody who has one.)

Nexus 5?

Annoyingly both of the iPhones and the Nexus are too expensive where i live. And the 16 Gig Moto G isn't avalible, which is a shame.

That's ok, it's not your fault. Australia's prices are honestly S#!&.
