Review on Motorola Moto G5s 3/32GB Dual Sim smartphone, grey by Qu Vn Nguyn (Mng Tay ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

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!
