Moto G Release Date Set for Nov. 13, Company Teases Launch
The Moto G release date is set for Nov. 13, according to the company.
Motorola posted up a teaser page on Moto-g.com that reveals the planned release date for the device. However, it doesn't inform customers on much else. The Nov. 13 launch date is displayed in multiple languages. This could mean that the device will launch internationally.
Users of the page also have the ability to sign up for an online live announcement.

Specs for the Moto G were revealed last week by @evleaks, a site well-known for accurate tech information.
The new handset will feature a 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro, a 720p 4.7-inch display, an 8-megapixel display, 8 or 16GB of internal memory, and a 1950 mAh battery. The device is also said to be free with a contract.
@evleaks received the information "via a tip" which means that it should all be taken with a grain of salt. The leak did not reveal the amount of RAM the handset would come with.
Android 4.4 was created to run on devices with low amounts of RAM so this handset coming with the software out of the box is not that far-fetched of an idea.
The Moto G surfaced in previous rumors as another device called the Moto DVX.
A leaked presentation slide from Republic Wireless revealed that the handset will be released in North America sometime this month. Judging from information in the new report, it will not be made in the U.S., making it cheaper for Motorola to manufacture. It probably will cost significantly lower than the flagship Moto X off contract and will ditch the dual-SIM feature here as well.
The Moto G is expected to retail for around $195 without an agreement.
