    Price to performance is Phenomenal! I'm coming from an older 4g (hint: made in Korea) and I couldn't be happier. I looked at top of the line brands but they cost twice as much or more for similar functionality. I had Motorola phones in the past and was curious to see how they've developed. I was impressed. Speed, web browsing, videos, download via WiFi is super fast. I live in big city so 5g coverage is readily available and reliable everywhere I go. Can't vouch for rural areas but then again it depends on carrier coverage. Picture quality is sharp. No home button or headphone jack any more with these new phones. The few games I've played ran smoothly. Call quality is excellent. Battery life is above average. Very little bloatware which can be uninstalled. Phone runs smooth and crisp. Standard phone settings but intuitive and easy to customize. No lagging. Everything I ever wanted and more. Hello Moto! It's good to be back.

    Great phone if you are a fan of Motorola and get it for a good price, like 350 is perfect. Particularly enjoy that they don't try to reskin the entire android system, and little to no added bloatware, and what they do add is pretty amazing, like chop to turn on flashlight and peek display at notifications. Runs very well, big smooth display with 144hz refresh looks just as good as Samsungs in my opinion. Update for Android 12 already out. 5G works well. Camera is not quite as good as other flagships, so that is the main sacrifice with this but still respectable.

    A very solid phone from Motorola. It is a large phone though, I mean large. The screen is good when looking directly at it but since it's an LCD screen the viewing angles are terrible. Plenty of storage with 256GB and a mid range Qualcomm processor, 778G and 8GB of ram. It's not a slow phone by any means but not the fastest of the bunch. Motorola's version of Android is near stock and has some nice added features. Have always loved the chop for flash light and the twist to fire up the camera. Camera picture quality is probably middle of the road as far as smart phone cameras go with some nice additions for taking special photos. Motorola updates are a whole other story. This phone was released with Android 11 when Android 12 was just around the corner the following month. Android 12 was pushed to the phone recently, (released in April 2022) not sure when it finally made it to the US version, but since this phone was purchased recently, it has been updated to 12. This phone will not be getting Android 13 which is not a huge upgrade from 12 but to only have one version upgrade and supposedly getting three years of bi-monthly security updates is the same old same old from Motorola.

    Great phone! A little bigger than I expected but will get used to it. Upgraded from a Moto Z4 and wanted to stay with the Motorola line with their awesome gesture features and Android ease of use. Sale price for this phone is now a great deal, and I actually purchased it for $100 less than what I paid for my Z4! Super fast and great battery. Upgraded to Android 12 with no issues. This should easily get me another 3+ years of good use. Has everything I need and more finding new great options everyday.

    Solid phone, decent camera and it plays games just fine. Replacing OnePlus 8t. Yes, I know it's lower spec than the OnePlus but had such a horrible experience with their phones, never buying again.. . Back to Motorola for me.

    Bought the phone for our 12 yo son's first phone and he is absolutely loving it. My wife and I are teasing him to trade with our Samsung S10+ but he won't budge a bit. We like the bigger screen, twice the storage @ 256gb. Images are just as vivid, if not better, as our S10+. The only downside is the speaker and no headphone jack but for a much cheaper price (less than half the price as the S10+ 2 yrs ago) and it's unlocked? So, we all agreed to give it a 5 of 5.

    There are both pros and cons to this phone. While it does have a 108 MP camera, it takes halfway decent photos. They're fuzzy mostly. I expected the camera to be better considering the MP, but I was wrong. The other con to it is it does not offer wireless charging, which is no biggie for me but I know most people now use it. It also charges really slowly. The cons to it is that it does have 144 refresh rate which is killer and the color of the phone is downright gorgeous.

    Good phone. I have been using Note for a long time and I switched to this Moto Edge due to the price increase and even I like Samsung more, the price difference doesn't make sense to me. You get 90% than Samsung on half the price
