La difficile scelta

La componente maschile adulta di casa sacchibelli sta valutando l’acquisto di un nuovo smartphone, dopo che il glorioso LG Optimus One comincia a sentire l’eta’. La tentazione era quella di abbandonare il duopolio Android/Apple ma, non potendo optare per Windows Phone, la scelta tra Firefox OS, Jolla o Ubuntu Phone appare un po’ troppo estrema. Si e’ deciso cosi’ di restare su Android, con le seguenti constraint:

  • Android puro
  • Ricevitore Radio FM
  • LTE
  • Prezzo ragionevole (sotto i 250 euro)

Al momento, pur osservando con interesse telefoni come l’“One plus One”, o l’“Elephone P6000” (dal prezzo sorprendentemente competitivo considerando l’hardware).
Il Nexus 5, ora che e’ uscito il 6 e magari scendono un po’ i prezzi, sarebbe perfetto, se non fosse che sciaguratamente manca la radio FM. Cosi’ ci si sta orientando verso il bellissimo Moto G (1gen con LTE). Certo, non andrebbero neanche trascurati il nuovissimo Lenovo A6000 o il Sony Xperia Z3 Compact. Insomma, una scelta difficile.


The adult male component of Sacchibelli family is looking for a new Smartphone. The great LG Optimus One is slow enough, and he is evaluating some Smartphone running a “non conventional” OS. But, unfortunately, to try something different from Android/Apple is a bit risky. Windows Phone is not considered at all, and all the alternatives sounds tricky: Jolla is the most promising, but the smartphone they are selling is costing too much. Firefox OS is not used at all, here in Italy, and I don’t like the user interface of Ubuntu Phone. So, being a linux fan, let’s set the mandatory requirents:

  • Pure Android (without customization)
  • FM Radio receiver
  • LTE
  • Not too much expensive (under 300 $)

Nexus 5 would be perfect, but sadly it lacks the FM Radio Receiver. There is some chinese phone very interesting, like the “One plus One”, or the“Elephone P6000”. However I’m almost focused on the Moto G (1gen con LTE). Is there any comment about it?
