  • Not a bad phone but has some drawbacks

    My previous phone was an original Google Pixek. The G9 Play is not bad at all, but I have been used to some features I do not have right now. The phone is over weight, the 5000mAh battery, also makes the phone feel fat and over sized. The other disappointment is the camera. The main shooter is a 48MP sensor, but as the sensor brand is not disclosed, I must say is neither the Sony nor the Samsung sensor. Even the 4year old Pixel takes better pictures and videos.

  • Feels premium, but doesn't cost as such

    The phone feels like a flagship of years prior. All features of the flagships from a year or so ago are present.

    A good cell phone in its time

    I had this phone used in 2024 and it was a good buy. I couldn't have the experience of a new one, which is better. You can't find it new these days, and it's not worth buying used since you can't get the same performance as a new one. The cameras are decent. The processor is very good despite its age; it runs social media and less demanding games (like Free Fire, Blood Strike, MOBA Legends Bang Bang, and 3D games) normally. The battery was somewhat degraded since it didn't last a full day and I had to charge it twice a day. It has fast charging, although it does get warm, but it charges in an hour and a half or more. It runs games well, decent I'd say, but it does get warm, although it doesn't bother me if you have a case. The operating system is good and doesn't use much RAM, although I should clarify that I changed the system mid-year to a lighter one, LineageOS. If you have this phone, I recommend installing this system; you'll see a big difference. Performance will improve a lot.

    Pros
    • Performance
    • Undemanding Games
    • Fast charging
    Cons
    • decent cameras
    • It's getting hot

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.
