My wife got a Moto G6 two Thanksgivings ago. I got a G7 this past Thanksgiving.

I am really pleased with how well the phone works for the $150 price tag.

I don't use my phone all that much, but I can't imagine a situation where I'd justify paying 3-5x that amount for a phone. The Moto G line seems to be perfectly adequate.

I currently have a G6, after upgrading from a G4. Also have to agree the brand is a fantastic bang-for-the-buck.

G7 would be perfect for me if only it had NFC. It seems you have to go into the 300$+ range to get NFC.

Is is really that expensive to add NFC, or is it a marketing thing where it's considered a premium feature for product differentiation?
