Photography by Charles Kikas The Motorola Moto G Pure is a low-cost option with a snappy camera and HD screen for the budget smartphone seekers out there looking for a quality smartphone with just enough bells and whistles for a pleasurable experience.
A Budget Wireless Hotspot
I was in the market for a wireless hotspot to bring along on my road trips. Something dedicated to uploading YouTube videos and watching TV and movies while car camping, backpacking, and hiking. By using the Motorola Moto G Pure as a mobile hotspot, it allows me to save data on my primary phone for work-related tasks and video editing. Walmart Family Mobile offers a $50 wireless plan that includes unlimited text and talk along with 30GB of high-speed data for use as a hotspot. Exactly what I was looking for and the cheapest deal available at this time. Not only do I have a great mobile hotspot but an extra smartphone to use in the event of an emergency.

My Review and Opinion
Slim and light, these two words first come to mind when describing the Motorola Moto G Pure. A well-constructed budget smartphone for $59.00 is hard to find. Photography by Charles Kikas The performance was decent for a phone in this price range, in fact, it was better than expected. This phone has a 6.5" bright, high resolution, HD screen that was just beautiful to look at. I am able to stream music and complete other tasks without lag and that was surprising based on the fact that this phone only contains 3GB of RAM. The 13-megapixel camera was snappy and took high-quality photos with realistic color. The main camera uses AI, (Artificial Intelligence) to assist with creating the best photo possible. In summary, if you are looking for a cheap smartphone and an even cheaper data plan, I highly recommend the Motorola Moto G Pure as a second or even primary phone. Check out the Walmart Family Mobile plans and pick out your phone in-store or online. You can’t go wrong here. Thanks for stopping by, I hope my review and opinion helps!
