Phone Recommendations

My HTC Desire C is on its way out. Its after catching me at a bad time, finance wise. So my budget is 100, i could possibly stretch to 150.

I was looking at a sony xperia e but ive been told to either get it because it will do me for a few months, or to stay well away from them, more so to stay away from them.

I was also looking at the moto G. It does seem like an excellent phone, however, my only concern is the fact that external memory cards are not supported in it.

I would love a nexus 4 or 5 but at the moment they are out of my price range.

Anyone any recommendations?

The moto G comes with a load of free space on Google drive, so the lack of an SD cars mightn't be an issue.

The Moto G is a good option... have it a few months now...
Plus - Fast muti-core processor, great screen
Cons - Non expandable storage, average camera (5Mb)

Its the lack of external sd card that is a big con to me.

I have an 8gb card at the moment and ideally i would like a phone that i could transfer everything on to, rather than losing some of it. Ive been problems with backing stuff up.

I am strongly considering the moto g though. Its just that con, that is holding me back.

Why not just buy it from the irish web site? even after the 10 pound discount it works out at 144 eu vs 149eu on tescomobile.ie

Edit: I see why not, the .ie one is only 8GB version

I ended up with a Huawei Y530

I was going to get the moto g but it was sold out everywhere today. My phone finally kicked the bucket so i was kinda in a rush for one (busy week, job interviews) really needed it this week, and they werent sure when it will be in stock again.

Still really want the moto g but this does seem like a good phone for the price. very easy to use. So im happy enough for the moment.

Thanks for all of your recommendations.
