Hello Moto G (2014) users,
I am thinking about buying a Moto G 2nd Generation (2014) - the dual sim version. I currently have an Acer Liquid E2 Duo... there are some issues with the Acer (photo quality with the 8M camera is the most annoying for me). That's why I would like to kindly ask you: would you prefer anytime a Moto G 2014 (dual sim version) over an Acer Liquid E2 Duo? Is the camera much better? And what about the battery life? Or would you stay with the Acer?
Thanks a lot in advance for your answers!
Conrad
For my moto g 2014 is very nice, battery during one day with WiFi connect, 2 or 3 call é messages...

The camera is good for the price, better than other mid-range phones I've looked at, but also not great. I don't use the camera that much, so it wasn't a priority for me, and I've never used the Acer so I can't make the direct comparison, but if camera quality is your priority, and you don't want to spend the money on a current flagship phone, my advice would be to get an older flagship phone (Like the S4 or LG G2). They aren't the latest and greatest, and you might have to live without the latest Android updates for some (unless you use a custom rom), but you can find good deals, and they'll have better cameras and fast processors than the Moto G.
Just wondering if anyone has tried or know if we could port the moto display from the moto x 2015. Would really like to have the music controls from the moto display lockscreen.
Does the Moto G5s Plus have the same red tint video problem as the Moto G5 Plus? When shooting video at 1080p 60fps red tint appears in the corners/sides. Supposedly this was a hardware problem not a software one so not fixable! Hopefully the new model has not inherited this issue

Didn't noticed anything on my G5S Plus. XT1802 tho (retbr)
Hello everyone.
Do you think the brand-new Moto G7 Plus is worth upgrading from our Moto x4? I have reteu 4/64 (220€ - 9 months ago) and I found a special offer for G7+ at 257€.
x4 pros:
- Front fingerprint sensor
- Ultra-wide second camera
- More compact
- Waterproof
g7+ pros:
- Bigger screen
- Better SoC (636 vs 630 - Qualcomm naming is a little weird, 636 is WAY better, it's basically an underclocked 660)
- Better main camera (OIS is a game changer)
- Stereo speakers
- Newest (updates, etc)
What do you think?

I would do it immediately. Unfortunately I do not have the money for it otherwise I would have already done that or would do it in the next few days.

I normally stick with the X line because I like nfc for mobile payments. This time, however, the hardware difference might make me go back to G even though no NFC on the US G7.

I use NFC too, but Italian G7 will have NFC so no problem for me.
Unfortunately the promo ended a few days ago, I'm gonna wait for some similar Amazon deals...
Is moto X4 retail version eligible for andriod Q update ?
As the 6GB RAM variant shipped with Oreo 8.0 out of the box, two major updates are promised from Moto for a premium/flagship models. Pie is just the 1st major upgrade

Then there's no need of using smartphones. Using basic handsets makes sense here. Basic handsets doesn't control people lives..:laugh:
I like the smaller screen of the X4.
A better camera isn't going to make my pictures any better.
I use a mono bluetooth headset so stereo speakers are useless.
I prefer 8.1 to pie and i am keeping my x4's on 8.1 for now. Works for me.
I have a moto x4 running havoc-os pie. Really snappy performance and overall a great experience. The only limitation on this phone is the shutter speed. Other phones such as the BQ Aquaris X PRO and Nokia 8 sirocco with the same sensor have 4s -32s exposure times. There has to be a way to either port those camera features or simply remove the limitation on this phone. Any idea on how I could go about this? As far as I know it has a Samsung S5K2L7 isocell sensor.
