12 hours of moderate use now. Battery seems just right. Good thing is the phone did not overheat once during all day of use.

[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Johny Cipeli:
Guys, I've just left the store and had the g5 and g5 plus in my hands, a brief description (maybe nothing new)

G5: Extremely light, really realy light, it is fast, the cover is removable and only the center part is made of metal. The camera looks good. The phone has a good size, and the interface is the same as always. The chip and SD card are under the hood. Price: R$999 (in Brazil)

G5 Plus: Heavier obviously, have NFC and fast payment option or name that I don't know. I thought very fluid. Particularly, the design on hands is beautiful. The Launcher is equal to the pixel, but dark. Price: R$1499 (in Brazil)

I must have forgeten some detail, anyway ask me.

Some questions

Hi, some additional questions

- Is the sound quality of telefone calls good (maybe compared to Moto G4 which is acceptable but not good and G1 which was good)?

- Is there again no magnetic sensor (compass)?

- Is there a message LED or loading LED which can be used for message signaling?

- Light sensor (to support automatic display brightning control)?

- I read about a dual pixel autofocus for the plus, but what is the advantage of this technology and can we see the difference (e.g. at low light faster focus or less color noise)?

- Are there any other differences which are not in the data sheet so far?

Thanks eths
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] iMaterial:
999?!? Nossa!! É muito caro, de verdade! :eek:

I think you can get the G5+ for less than that here and we have 25% sales tax.

Boa tarde amigo, teria como você extrair o launcher do moto g5 e disponibilizar o apk pra mim?
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] tutumartins:
- Is the sound quality of telefone calls good (maybe compared to Moto G4 which is acceptable but not good and G1 which was good)?

It's a leap from Moto G1. Very clear voice from the speaker, also this phone's antennae provides excellent cell reception.

- Is there again no magnetic sensor (compass)?

Sensor list by "Moto Help" stock app:

- Is there a message LED or loading LED which can be used for message signaling?

No led at all. Neither white or colored.

- Light sensor (to support automatic display brightning control)?

Yes it have.

- I read about a dual pixel autofocus for the plus, but what is the advantage of this technology and can we see the difference (e.g. at low light faster focus or less color noise)?

I don't own the Plus model. Moto G5 camera it is just regular by my standarts...

- Are there any other differences which are not in the data sheet so far?

So far (five days of use), neither bad or good surprises about the phone specs.

EDIT

Weird, there's a charging led when phone is off. But it doesn't serve as a notification led.

[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sephirothrx7:
I had a Moto G2 (2014) but I was robbed last week and needed a new phone. Ended up buying the Moto G5 this weekend here in Brazil. I'm enjoying the phone until now, it's a big improvement coming from the Moto G2. The UI is very fluid, all apps launch very fast. The fingerprint sensor works like a charm. Battery also seems to last for a long period. So far, so good.

Maybe it's just like the moto x 2013, probably at some point of development it will have a use for notifications too, just like the moto x (but we only have the notification led with the phone charging)

So, what do you guys think about switching from a (almost exploding, with only 2 hours of battery time, and a stuffed battery that broke the back cover) moto x 2013 to a moto g5, or g5+?
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
For me its worth go for it
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] elnt:
Hey guys, i need an advice. I have actually a LG D337 (L Prime, 2014, November) and i'm thinking about buying the G5+, is it worth it? Thoughts on that?!

D337 (Lollipop) specs:

Quad-core 1.3 GHz (no OC)

1gb RAM

Internal 8GB

Li-Ion 2460 mAh battery

Screen:

5.0 inches

480 x 854 pixels (~196 ppi pixel density)

Thank you in advance.
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Johny Cipeli:
Yeahh man it worth the price. I was coming from the moto g1 and 3 ( yes from the both lol) and the G5+ is surprising me, mainly in the battery point. Everything is good.

Been a big fan of the moto G series had them all but think will give this years a miss , not digging new look looks cheap and screen is to small not to mention poor cpu, the plus model is slightly better so if I was to get one would need to be the plus model ,personal preference ?
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] gigitux:
For you Moto G3 to Moto G5, is a good update?
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sephirothrx7:
For me, G2 to G5 has been a great upgrade. Snapdragon 430 performance is far superior then 401. The 2GB Ram solved my complaints about apps reloading when switching apps.

[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] mobilityguy:
I'm looking for a replacement for the original 4.5" Moto G for my wife, who has small hands. Was excited about the G5 coming in at 5 inches but just found out Moto only plans to import the G5 Plus to the US. Very disappointing, and will probably drive me to another brand in spite of the excellent performance of the G over the years. My question is, is it a bad idea to buy the international version of the G5 for US use? Will I notice any difference in performance or user interface over the US version? Will the warranty apply?

I'm on the waiting list at Carphone Warehouse for notification when the G5 is released in England. Should I go through with the purchase?
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RonJeremyClarkson:
Moto G5 doesn't have the network bands needed to get LTE in the US. Also the warranty would only be valid in the UK. You're better off looking elsewhere for a compact size phone.
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] mobilityguy:
Thanks for that info. It's annoying that Motorola designed the perfect phone for my wife's use (smallish screen, replaceable battery and back cover, Nougat, etc.) and decided they don't want to sell it to her. The G5 plus is too big, so is the G4, and the G3 is just too old at this point. Goodbye Moto, you lost at least one loyal customer.
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] SebastianAlejandro:
Hey guys, can you please share some pics from the G5? some with low/good lights or indoors?

How good is the performance with some games like Pokemon go?
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RiotRick:
I bought one two days ago. Had a moto x play, which I dropped last Saturday and the screen broke. Got the moto g5 as a replacement. G5 plus was not available here yet.

So far performance seems comparable to the X play. The extra gig ram (mine has 3gb) makes it a bit faster with multiple apps open.

I mostly notice this in the car with Google maps, poscast/music app, and a speedtrap app running. I don't really play games on my phone, so can't comment on that too much.

Screen is good. Sharp, good colors. Well visible in daylight.

I love the fingerprint reader. So convenient for unlocking your phone and apps that support it. My first phone that has this, wouldn't want to go without it anymore.

Battery seems to be ok. I think the X play lasted a bit longer. But this one lasts longer than my nexus 5 did.

Haven't had a chance to test the camera much.

So far I'm pretty happy with it.

I really like the fingerpring sensor - and the things you can do with it.

The software in EU is quite light.

In Amazon Spain / UK the phone is with 3GB RAM.

This is not high end phone - but I can not tell it - because I need battery, fast UI - browser - some light apps. I do not play with it.

My previous phone was z3c, this one holds battery better, even without the STAMINA.

Of course, Moto G5 doesnt have compass.... But I usually do not need it anyway.

BTW I was surprised that it is relatively light and not bulky (is slim).
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
Seems to be a pretty good phone i only see positive feedbacks about it ?
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bookworth:
.

But you must keep in mind that we know what we need from phone - thus we are glad if the things we need come all together with a reasonable price. For example I can buy 3000 EUR laptop but no way I am going to buy a 1000 EUR phone - because I do not need this combination of price and features.
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] oliver7:
Gr8, snappy device, good cam and display for €199. I like the One button nav-feature / fp navigation. The soft keys disappear / screen expands - except when gboard pops up/is openend -> soft keys pop up, too - which is a bit disturbing. Anyone know how to prevent gboard from displaying soft keys??

P.S. My G+ collection: https://plus.google.com/collection/QXJdQE
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nk7600:
I have just replaced my Moto G4 after 5 months of use and the power button fell off!. So, decided to pay a xtra £10 for the Moto G5.

My first impressions are that imho. It's a weaker device to the G4. It seems really laggy when trying to type in apps, the keyboard is too small, the icons at the bottom on the home screen are too big meaning that the screen realesate feels like a 4" display. The earpiece sound on calls seems tinny'er. It also took nigh on 2 hours trying to get the back off as I have no nails (bite mine sadly lol) & had to give it someone else to try and get it off after I had used all manor of knifes to try and get the back off which has now damaged the bottom of the case!.

I feel that for me, it's a downgrade to the G4. The G4 wasn't perfect but. Am pretty disappointed with it at the moment and the G4 was also on 7.0 so can compare. Maybe am giving the phone too much of a hard time?!. As I only started using it today but... If I had the chance to choose between the G4 or G5... I would opt back for the G4.

There are a few positives though, i.e. it has a removable battery (pointless if you have no nails though lol), fingerprint reader which should help to prevent the power button falling out aka G4 & also, it will get Android 8.0 and more updates etc.. then G4.

This is my own personal opinion on the device within 3 hours of use. But for me, it feels like it is a step back from the G4. My previous phone to the Moto G4 was the LG G3 that I had for 2 years lol.
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bookworth:
ok - laggy - i have 3 GB RAM version (UK sells that, too) and it is as smooth as SONY Z3 Compact - that was quite a good phone, actually. So I am scratching my head here, in theory the G5 should be better than G4 - but unfortunately I can not compare (although internet Antutu tests give benefit to G5). However, do you have a SD card in it (if yes, sometimes the SD card is the culprit)? Can you compare the behaviour after a few days (after cache has been built and phone has settled down)?

In Display settings, try Display Size. You will be surprised.

Earpiece is different than with Z3C but not unpleaseant. The back is sold in internet - so after some time when there is too much scratches, you can refreshen it: http://www.witrigs.com/oem-back-cover-for-motorola-moto-g5-lunar-grey (I think after a while the availability will better).

The fingerprint is really nice, specially if you have used PIN or pattern before - but also when using it as a nav-pad (configure it in: Moto app; Security -> Screen Lock -> Gear button in the right - so you never have to use power button again + there is more usable space in screen).

So I hope you won't be disappointed too much :) but indeed if you need faster phone and your Moto G4 was faster then you should just go for it!
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nk7600:
I will see how it goes and the display size is set to minimum so it's not bad but maybe i just need to get used to it?. It was just my initial impressions. I have a SD card which was fine in the G4 and it was only yesterday.. Like I said, will see... At the end of the end, it's better than having no phone at all ha ha ha [emoji6]
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nk7600:
Just a quick update. The speaker is not as loud when watching YouTube videos. I have to have it half way where as the G4 was less than a quarter while watching the same videos.

It's not a bad phone by any means... It just feels a step back from the G4. However, I am keeping the G5 as I will get used to it and tbh, it's not all bad. It's just taking a lot longer than expected to get used to the little niggles lol. Fact is, it's newer and will get updates (hopefully lol) to maybe iron out the software as my phone was all up to date and required no updates.

Moto g4 is powered by snapdragon 617 while moto g5 use snapdragon 430, so the (non plus) g5 is a downgrade in cpu performance.

But snapdragon 430 have adreno 505 gpu vs snapdragon 617 with adreno 405, so the gpu is better in g5...

EDIT:

SD430 features 8xCortex-A53@1.4 GHz vs SD617 with 4xCortex-A53@1.5 GHz + 4xCortex-A53@1.2 GHz

-So CPU performance is almost equal.

Moto G4 Antutu according kimovil.com is 35 000; Moto G5 Antutu is 40 000. All user reviews show Moto G5 Antutu as 45 000 - so it is definitely faster...
[Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Allan_Hun:
Moto G4 scores about 46000 in antutu v. 6.

-But you can't use antutu overall system score to rank cpu, because the overall antutu score sums cpu, gpu, ram and storage performance.

can you suggest a method for that?

I recently bought my wife a 2008 Ford Focus ses. can't post link of dash due to being first post, but if you google 2008 ford focus dash it's the third pic. (from motivemag) I'd LOVE to get a 10" but I know it may have to be a 7 or 8". Can't seem to find ANYTHING that matches up with the dash. Can anyone point me in the right direction?? 2GB is a must.. and 5.1 is preferred, as well as knobs for volume.

Thanks so much guys. (and girls)

If you not finding any car specific models, you might want to look at a 7" - generic 2din model plus a dash kit. For my car, metra had several different finishes to choose from. It looks "good" but not quite factory. The factory radio was curved, which makes it difficult to match when installing a flat panel.
