For a 6 inch phone the specs are really disappointing, 8gb of internal memory is awful for a phone of its size, even with an SD card.

Since when did bigger screen mean bigger storage applies?

It doesn't mean it should, but there's no real reason it shouldn't have the extra storage, especially when you consider the OS itself takes up more than 2gb.

8gb on a windows phone right now is a real problem with regards installing large apps and games. At least when 8.1 hits in the next 2 or 3 months you'll have proper support for installing to the sd card. Then you're laughing.

I'm still wary of phones this big though.

Skydrive and similar are grand for photos and the like, but not so great for larger apps and games that are available. Quite a lot of games now care pushing a gig or more.

Also, Sky drive is great for people who understand it, a large amount of the target market for this phone will be from an older generation who won't understand the concept or how it works. I speak to dozens of people each day who have no idea what updates are or how they work.

Its the same with the Moto G, customers should not have to rely on Cloud services.

You seem to be missing the point, it's a budget version of the 1520. Hence a lot cheaper so less spec.

Have been using the 1520 since Friday, went out on a limb with the big screen and love it. For that price on 02 prepay, the 1320 would be nice option for people who do a lot of browsing, I'm probably going to sell my galaxy tab, no need for it with IE on the 6 inch screen!
p.s. I'm 087 so no option of 1320 for me, 1520 was still 200 bucks even with the upgrade but I dare say, maybe, worth it!!
