The new moto g⁵ plus smartphone is the latest from motorola’s android boasts a head-turning metal design, the most advanced camera in its class, and an all-day battery.

The Great

  • TurboPower Charging; 6 hours of power in 15 minutes of charging
  • 12MP Camera & Fingerprint Sensor Unlock
  • 24-Hour Battery
  • Precision-crafted metal design
  • moto experiences
  • affordable

The Not

  • lacks Ram and processing power
  • previous model g4 seems like an upgrade
  • Bluetooth/audio features are unreliable

 

The Conclusion

With no real stunning upgrades over the g4, even some downgrades this is just a cheap android to get the job done for the average to basic user. It looks good though

the Moto G5 is a completely forgettable, attractive  looking phone with some functions that give it a slight advantage over some of the competition . If you are already familiar with the Moto G family, there are some highlightable changes.

The screen has been reduced from the 5.5 inch Moto G4 to 5.2 inches, the is slightly wider though and significantly slimmer. This is the design change which I thought looked and felt great. It looks like a uni body metal design, how ever it is just a small cut of aluminum on a plastic frame.

Underneath the screen is a impressive fingerprint scanner. As standard it’s not used as a Home button, but pop into the Moto app and it will let you have it replace all the home keys. This allows you to swipe left for ‘back’, right for ‘recent apps’ and a tap for Home, this is nice.

The Final Thought

I pretty much just gave up on this phone, its pretty cookie cutter android. The fingerprint reader is really the only note worthy aspect to mention. Its completely average for an average price, it the android for those who just dont really care. If you are looking at this phone its fine, I mean its alright if you finally stop caring, but dont go telling some one who does and spend the extra $50 for the 4gb of ram.
