  • Good phone wiht a nice underrated price, bestbuy in my opinion for mid range.

    Just got android 14, depending on usage, battery may not last a whole day. Camera is what surprised me and the resiliance of the display to scratches. First phone im not using protection for the screen, and it has fallen on the floor from 0.5m. Procesor does its job, but the phone has some stuttering problems sometimes (no deal breakers - no in app problems). Feels great in hand, doesnt slip because of faux leather. Smells great out of the box (trust me and sniff it). Controling sound volume is a hasttle, it lags like hell - biggest minus on my side.

    Pros
    • Great display - even better with android 14 update
    • Camera functions and quality are astounding for me
    • Wireless charging
    • Scratch resistant screen
    • Stereo sound with dolby app
    • Great wifi range - best ive seen yet
    Cons
    • Not the best battery autonimy if you want to use it at best performance
    • Can stutter while navigating system
    • Buttons for sound control are lagging like hell

  • Over a day battery life non gaming!

    Quick initial review on purchase for £185 CEX grade A in box is that it is a really nice phone. I am getting on average a day of battery, often 20-25% next morning and 8-9hrs SOT per accubattery 60hz, 5g off, and no stupid battery drain issues also reported elsewhere. Oh, and the 'Ready For' app is awesome, 'sends' an android desktop to my TV (or any connected screen) with on phone screen touch mouse pad control! Shows all android apps on my phone on TV! Awesome, kinda like an Android tablet on screen. First phone I've had in a while that feels really nice and is nice to use for daily stuff and the more I use it the more I like it. If only someone at Lenovo got their head on re timely and extensive software updates they'd wipe the floor.....

    Pros
    • 'Ready For' app
    • Weight/feel/ build
    • Screen/ brightness
    • Super quick charging
    • 256GB storage std
    • Software -screen attention, sidebar etc
    Cons
    • 2 androids ( but 4 security)
    • Edge detection without case
    • Drop crack potential curved screen
    • Warm 67w charging
    • So, so selfie
    • Slow software updates

    If you want a fast camera don't buy it: v

    Sometimes I think it's due to optimization or I don't know, but everything closes and I get the typical message "hardware not responding" and for a cell phone that has a lot of power and one of the latest ones that Motorola has launched, it disappoints, but It's just a matter of optimizing, just like there is another problem that is with the cameras, which in themselves are good but they take a lot of time to take the photo, especially if you have just played and it's at night, it's like the cell phone has a hard time processing and They don't come out (the photos they take are good, the bad thing is what you have to do to take the photo): v in itself everything needs to be optimized but since it is Motorola, it forgets its devices very quickly, I don't think they give it adequate optimization, Another fact to consider is that I don't know if it happens to everyone or just me since when I write a lot "as it is in this case" the Hz of the cell phone drops to about 40Hz, and I don't really know why that happens. "Anyway, the cell phone is good but it has its details, if this doesn't bother you, then buy it (I bought it in the store in case they think it's second hand)"

    good design but lousy hardware

    Although the Mediatek Dimensity 8020 processor has good specifications, the reality is that on this phone it is terrible, it overheats after 5 minutes of playing light games and its performance decreases (I clarify that this is without using the charger and case) in Minecraft it arrived at 54 degrees playing for around 7 minutes, in pokemon unite after a game the fps dropped from 60 to 40 even 30, as expected from motorola their cameras are not the strong point, although the light sensor of the cameras gives good results in general the cameras are just numbers since in the results you have photos with watercolor effects in the details, and on the screen it has good technologies, the protection that it includes is mediocre, since it scratches easily and does not support minor falls so yes or yes you will have to consider having it with a tempered glass or a hydrogel mica, as for the rest of the phone it is good.

    Pros
    • Screen with good technology and beautiful design (edge screen)
    • Good design
    • Waterproof
    • Good sound
    Cons
    • processor (overheats very quickly, does not have temperature sensors)
    • poor quality front camera
    • screen protection technology

    Real quality price

    Good cell phone. Plenty of power, it heats up but not excessively, the battery is very good and if you add that it charges super fast, uffff, spectacular. Its audio is very good, the only thing that narrowly fails is in the night camera, but from there everything is good.

    Excellent smartphone at an absurd price

    10/10 display for quality, colours, brightness and speed. For me the real strong point of this device. The handle is also excellent with excellent grip. Also noteworthy is the fingerprint sensor, under the display which is always precise and high-performance. It also has wireless charging. In all segments of use it proves to be a top phone. The processor is a piece of cake, the battery life is also excellent. Both the rear and front cameras are also good, capable of taking respectable shots and always well balanced in terms of colors and details. Given the price, I think it should be purchased immediately.

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
