Moto G5S Plus : A Phone Worth Buying

Moto G5s Plus, is higher variant of Moto G5,5th Generation in Moto G series. It was launched in Indian Market of 29th August. The phone had an amazing response in Indian Market, with both positive and negative reviews. So here, let me tell my personal review of the phone after 10 months of usage. Do comment below, if you need to know more about certain features.

  1. RAM 4GB: Well calibrated RAM, and performs without lag, even if multiple applications are opened. 
  2. Gaming Experience: Since i am not an active gamer, i may not be the right person to comment on this. But yes, for past 1 month, i am playing PUBG in this mobile. Performance is good, there is no lag. But yes, phone gets heated up, if the games goes continuously for more than 1 hour.
  3. OS: As of today, it is still in Android N. This is the area where Lenova has cheated its users. They promised Oreo update, but that promise is still promise. There is no confirmed dates regarding, when Oreo update will be rolled out
  4. Network: 4G,3G,2G, and yes, Jio is supported
  5. Battery & Charging: 3000mAh battery and comes with Turbo Charger. Takes 90min to charge from 15 to 100%, with initial 65 to 70 charging in less than 30 minute.
  6. Camera(Video): Pretty good camera which supports 4K recording in 30fps and Full HD in 60fps. You can see Full HD videos in my Youtube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/sajinnarayanan
  7. Camera(Photo): Would give 9/10 for both front and back camera, with portrait mode giving pictures which gives better result than some of the digital camera.
With current MRP of 13K, it is worth money spend compared to its competitor. And if you have patience, you can wait for one more month. The price will come down, during Independence Day sale. And also reduce further when G6S Plus is launched.
