Motorola unveiled its new relatively low-cost smart phone on Wednesday, aimed at consumers in emerging markets and those on a tight budget everywhere.

But the one country noticeably missing from the rollout of Moto G was China, thanks to the unfriendly relations with Motorola's parent company Google.

Motorola goes after emerging markets

The Moto G will cost just $179 without a contract in the United States, about a third the cost of an iPhone 5c and about half the cost of a Galaxy S4 Mini.

Motorola launched the new device in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in a presentation beamed around the globe.
CEO Dennis Woodside said Moto G has set its sights on the whole world.
