    I've had this phone for over two years and...

    This phone is more than adequate. It's a mid-range phone with good overall performance, or at least it was on Android 13 or Android 12 when it came out of the box. I feel like the phone was incredibly fast on those two software versions, haha. When Android 14 arrived, many optimization problems started to appear, and they're noticeable. I'm focusing on this because it's something I haven't seen many people mention. Although Android 14 isn't at the optimization level of its previous versions (on this phone), it's not a huge deal, but you can feel the lack of that spark it had in earlier Android versions. Besides, Motorola further limited the software in Android 14. Things like customization: I think and feel that Android 12 and 13 had more options and more personality. Speaking of other things, like games, Genshin runs at 30 fps on medium-low graphics settings, with stuttering and some glitches in the more demanding cutscenes, but it's playable if you have no other choice. The cameras are fine. As with all cameras, with a good day and good lighting you'll take a great photo, except for the front camera: the software gives it a "sweep" that looks horrible, but everything improves with GCam.

    Pros
    • Performance
    • Water and dust resistance aren't the best...
    • ...but they saved me on several occasions
    • The screen is great.
    • Stereo sound, and good quality
    • It has some really good custom ROMs
    Cons
    • The battery lasts just enough when it's already old.
    • Front camera (From the native photo app)
    • You have to be careful because it gets hot.
    • Building materials
    • The shine outdoors
    • The absence of Jack 3.5 is missed.

    Reliable

    It's a good device for everyday use; it hasn't given me any problems in these three years. It's durable; I've dropped it multiple times without any damage. The only issue is that the screen scratches very easily. Performance-wise, it's handled undemanding games perfectly, but it's not ideal for anything more demanding. Photography is acceptable; the photos look good, but they could be much better, especially zoomed-in or nighttime shots. The battery gives me about seven hours of normal use, but it drops to about five hours under more demanding conditions. Overall, it's a good mid-range phone, but there might be better alternatives available now.

    I actually think he's mediocre when it comes to gaming, but in Fortnite he just can't handle it smoothly.

    I wanted this phone more for gaming. It's really good, but for games I love most, like Fortnite and some demanding games on Roblox, it can't handle them. Free Fire, on the other hand, can run at maximum settings, but if you set it to maximum, the phone overheats and becomes overloaded. Aside from that, this phone is top-notch; I recommend it if you want to play medium-level games.

    Pros
    • Good performance in average games.
    Cons
    • An improvement in updates

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.
