context_page_description: Moto G5 is a series of Android smartphones developed by Motorola Mobility, a division of Lenovo; it is the fifth generation of the Moto G family. Announced as successors to the Moto G4, they were first released in March 2017 in several markets including India and Europe. The original variants are the Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus, the latter also being available as an Amazon Prime version in the United States. Special editions called Moto G5s and Moto G5s Plus were first released in August 2017.
context_section_description: The Moto G5 is the standard variant, and is not available to purchase in the United States; and the Moto G5 Plus is a premium variant with improved specifications but a non-replaceable battery.. The Moto G5 Plus was released in the United States and internationally; all Plus models apart from American ones have NFC-contactless payment as a feature, but not compasses; US models have the opposite configuration. The Moto G5 Plus will not be released in Canada, according to Mobile Syrup.
  As with the previous generation of Moto G4 devices, online retailer Amazon.com offers a 'Prime Exclusive' version of the Moto G5 Plus for Amazon Prime members, which is cheaper than the standard version and features Amazon advertisements on the lock screen.
  Unlike the previous generation, the 2800 mAh battery of the basic Moto G5 variant is user-replaceable.
  The 'Prime Exclusive' devices hardware is identical; however, unlike most other recent Motorola Android devices, their bootloaders cannot be unlocked, thereby precluding users from installing custom firmware.
