A good product at a good price, I advise you to try it.

I watched, read, chose among different manufacturers and models for a long time, and as a result I have Motorola G5s. Motorola is now owned by the Chinese (I have no complaints against them), but as far as I know, Lenovo bought the entire mobile direction with all their developments and patents, and Motorola was once one of the best in this business.
I bought a silicone bumper on Ali, which leveled the camera sticking out on the back side, and in general it became much easier to use the phone, because. he became a little thicker and not so slippery.
I installed Android Pay, linked a card to it, and now I use contactless payments in stores - it's very convenient to part with money! )))
They promise to upgrade to the 8th android, while it costs 7.1.1.

Pros

1. Excellent build. The metal case covered with paint, steady against erasing. 2. The presence of NFC in the XT1794 model (check that it is exactly it); 3. Communication quality - the interlocutors hear me perfectly, and I hear them too (there were problems with the previous Jiayu G4); 4. Good rear camera with manual settings, sensitive even in low light conditions. The front one is also valid, and even with its own flash; 5. The fingerprint sensor is conveniently located under the screen and I immediately turned on the phone control with it - a very convenient feature; 6. The screen is bright enough, in daylight everything is clearly visible, not amoled of course, but for this class of devices it's excellent; 7. Screen glass with a good oleophobic coating (finally I felt all the delights of this technology), it is not scratched; 8. Powerful vibration signal, I have not seen this for a long time. How the engineers managed to fit it into such a thin case is a mystery to me. Well done!; 9. Performance. I am not a gamer and for my needs both the processor and memory are enough for my eyes: nothing lags, does not slow down, flies on 4G; 10. The waffle operates at frequencies of 2.4 and 5 GHz, clings to the "fly". 11. Fast charging. Really fast - full charge in an hour and a half. 12. Micro USB is not Type C. I write this as a plus, because there are a lot of cables in the car, at home, and at work with a regular micro USB and there are no problems with recharging.

Cons

1. Almost a month after the purchase, I used the phone without a bumper - this is a torment: the case is thin and when you take it from the shelf in your hand, the infection slips out; 2. It is not clear why the creators made a round block sticking out on the back side with a camera and flash?! At the same time, there is no bumper in the kit that would smooth out this protruding element; 3. The finger reader reads wet fingers very badly, well, it just doesn’t read at all, and after five times it blocks and you have to enter a pin code (a password that you set yourself when activating the phone) - not critical, but creates inconvenience; 4. There is no LED that notifies you of the receipt of messages or the discharge-charging of the phone. On my old Jiayu G4, such an LED was multi-colored, and by its color I already saw what he wants to tell me - it was very convenient; 5. Battery capacity - 3000 mAh. I write it down, because for a modern smartphone this is not enough. Yes, it holds 1.5 - 2 days, but it would be better if the creators made the phone thicker by 1 - 1.5 mm and put another 1000, and preferably 2022 mAh into it. Last year I bought my wife a Lenovo Vibe P1 with 5000 mAh on board - this is power!
