If you are living in the United States and are interested in the purchase of a Moto G smartphone on the network of Verizon Wireless, today is your lucky day.

The smartphone has seen a 50% price cut on Best Buy and can be yours for only $49.99 (€37) now, on a pre-paid basis, making it a great option for everyone looking for a cheap yet powerful device.

Moto G, made official in the fourth quarter of the last year, comes to the market with about the same looks as the Moto X, but with slightly downgraded hardware specs.

However, it does feature a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor inside, as well as a 4.5-inch touchscreen display capable of delivering a 1280 x 720 pixels resolution. It also includes the usual set of connectivity capabilities.

Moreover, the handset landed on shelves with a 5-megapixel camera on the back, as well as with a 1.3MP front camera for video calling and with Google’s Android 4.3 Jelly Bean operating system loaded on top.

However, you should know that Google and Motorola have already pushed the Android 4.4 KitKat platform version to it. A 2070mAh Lithium-Ion battery inside Moto G ensures that the phone can offer long usage times.
