Depends on your priority. Optimus G (F180) korean version (exactly like the international version except for a dmb-tv antenna) is a good choice if warranty is not an issue. I m using a korean version . Awesome specs, almost totally lag free and decent developer support on XDA. Moto G cant even get close specs wise. But if you prefer a brand new one then moto G is your only option as international version Optimus G isnt available brand new in pakistan (or absurdly priced , e.g by homeshopping) and korean versions are mostly used/refurbished. MOTO G has the benefit of timely updates from google as well. So weigh your needs and choose accordingly.

You can opt for the AT&T version of the optimus g, it's available cheaper than the moto g and sometimes with box. but if u need brand new then moto g is the way to go

i am not sure but 22k is too low for a new Optimus G give them a call and let us know what they say.

can you install CyanogenMod in your F180 after converting it to E975 ?

Its not my phone, so cant do modifications but its possible as cyanogenmod doesnt flash modem, even if it do, u can flash later
I m posting this from a CM-based rom, PACMAN. You can install CyanogenMod as well. As i said the optimus G has decent dev support. Has plenty of custom roms.

The AT&T version has a lower-res camera (though the camera in the entire optimus G line is shite) .

On the contrary, go for it. I recommend any version of optimus g you can get your hands on. It can take good daylight pics. Low light pics arent that good.

mate, camera isn't that all. all-rounder phone ..plus future-proof that can survice over two years. that matters. IMO.

The only future-proof phone, in terms of updates , is the nexus 5. Dont know how quick Moto G updates will be now that Motorola is being sold to Lenovo.
Between the two smartphones you have mentioned , i d still pick the optimus g on hardware specs alone.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!
