A friend needs a phone upgrade
The Moto X (2014) 16GB is running low and phone freezing up.

The Moto G Plus (5th Gen) seems like a perfect phone for a normal person.
  • 2017
  • Android 7.0
  • 5.2" screen
  • 32GB
  • SD slot
  • $230
The problem is only 2GB RAM.
To get 3GB and 64GB storage, it's $299.

Once you're at $300, what's the next step up?
 
Moto X Pure.

They are discontinued but are still a great phone. I just looked quickly and you can order still from a few places but they are getting harder to find. There will be an new one coming out at some point, that may be worth waiting for.

I really like mine. It's up to 6.0 and that's fine with me. For the price and function I'm more than happy and will use it for 'til when it dies. lol
