- Now Mobile is offering the Moto G 5G for free for those who sign up for a new line of service for just $25 a month.
- The Moto G 5G is valued at $200, making this a solid deal.
- Now Mobile is essentially a sub-brand of Xfinity Mobile, offering similar services and features but through a prepaid model instead of postpaid.
Now Mobile is kicking off tax season with a free phone promotion, giving customers a new Moto G 5G from now until February 17 when they activate a new line of service. While the Moto G 5G is nowhere near flagship level, it is a decent budget device with solid performance and battery life. This is especially true considering its $200 price tag.
Still, the phone is far from perfect. The MediaTek Dimensity 6300 isn’t a bad chip, but it’s no Qualcomm SoC, and Lenovo’s Motorola-branded devices typically have less-than-consistent software update policies. Of course, the price of free changes things a bit, making any shortcomings much easier to overlook.
