Moto G7 joins Google Fi’s phone lineup
Today, Google added Motorola’s Moto G7 to its fleet of Google Fi-compatible phones. The Moto G7 debuted last month just ahead of MWC, and it stuck to Motorola’s trend of bringing mid-range phones to everyone. Now that Google is offering it when people sign up for its Fi wireless service, the Moto G7 is the newest low-cost Fi phone.
As we reported last month, the Moto G7 is Motorola’s latest wallet-friendly smartphone. The phone has a 6.2-inch display with a resolution of 2270 x 1080. The rear camera is 12 megapixels, and the front-facing camera is 8 megapixels — nothing special, but pretty expected for a phone this price. Inside, it pairs 4GB of RAM with 64GB of internal storage and Qualcomm’s mid-range Snapdragon 632 processor. There’s also a microSD slot, which can further expand memory, and lastly, the Moto G7 includes a headphone jack (despite mounting evidence that we should all move on).
You can pre-order the Moto G7 for $299, and Google is offering a $50 discount when you activate Fi, its mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) that switches between T-Mobile, Sprint and US Cellular. While a lot more phones work with Fi after a big fall expansion, Google is still curating its own little selection of recommended models at a variety of price points, and the new G7 fits well into that lineup.
