For review us Moto G6 Found which is a phone with dual rear camera setup. The price starts at Rs 13,999, which will get 3 GB RAM and 32 GB storage variants. Remember that the G series has been highly appreciated by the old model by customers and critics. The Moto G6 has been launched at a time when there is tremendous competition in the price segment of Rs 20,000.
In this segment Asus zenfone max pro m1 And Redmi Note 5 Pro ,Review) There are handsets like we have liked a lot. Let’s try to know how strong Moto G6 presents in comparison to them?
Moto G6 Design
Motorola with Moto G6 and G6 Play has discharged the old handset plastic and metal body of the G series. This time glass and metal design have been joined. Moto G6 last year due to sleek and shiny curved glass back and extremely polished metal mid-frame Moto X4 As it sounds.
This phone with an 8.3 millimeter thickness is not the most slim, but it is convenient to use it with one hand and 167 grams cannot be called too much weighty. However, this smartphone still looks a little chunky and solid. During the review, this smartphone accidentally slipped out of hands with us. But it did not cause any damage, except for some scratches.
Sadly, Motorola has used Gorilla Glass 3 instead of new and stronger Gorilla Glass 4 or 5 for protection in front and back in this phone. Due to glass, this device easily slipped into the hands. Fingers and other spots are easily on this.
In the affair of 18: 9 displays and thin bezel, Vyadatar smartphone maker companies have started giving fingerprint sensor to the back. But Motorola has given this sensor in the front itself. This sensor with a capcual shape is very small. We were earlier in some doubt about its use and performance. But it turned out to be quite fast and accurate.
There is nothing on the left side of the smartphone. But on the right side there is a volume rocker and power button. It is easy to reach them. The earpiece also works as a speaker. This brings loud sound, but it lacks warmth and clarity. The bottom of the phone has USB Type-C port and 3.5mm headphone socket. Many companies give micro-USB ports in this price range. But the USB Type-C port is a good experiment in Moto G6 and Moto G6 Play.
Moto G6 Specification and Display
This affordable smartphone of Motorola has used Snapdragon 450 processor, which is Qualcomm’s latest budget smartphone processor. This processor is quite cheap Xiaomi Redmi 5 ,Review) And Honor 7C ,ReviewIt is also part of. Moto G6 have two variants- one has 3 GB RAM and 32 GB storage, which costs Rs 13,999. At the same time, variants with 4 GB RAM and 64 GB storage will be available for Rs 15,999. MicroSD cards up to 128 GB can be used in both variants.
The Moto G6 has a 3,000 mAh battery that supports quick charging. The connectivity feature is 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS/A-GPS, USB Type-C and 3.5mm headphone jack. It has space for two Nano SIMs and at one time only one SIM will run in 4G speed. Many smartphones of this price range come with hybrid slots. But the Moto G6 has separate slots for two nano SIMs and microSD cards.
With Moto G6 and Moto G6 Play, Motorola finally took the trend of 18: 9 displays. The display cannot be called borderless, but the fingerprint sensor in the front works to hide this deficiency.
The Moto G6 has a 5.7-inch full-HD+ IPS panel with 18: 9 aspect ratio. The viewing angles are great. Colors are accurate. But sunlight leziblity is average. The same will be said about the brightness level. Allways on display feature is available in Moto software. With its help, users will be able to answer the message directly from the lock screen itself. Apart from this, there is also a blue light filter.
In our experience, Motorola’s app on 18: 9 displays went well. But the app that does not have support for this aspect ratio, we had to stretch.
Moto G6 Performance, Software and Battery Life
Our experience is mixed with Snapdragon 450 processor. But this hardware has been used well in Moto G6. Some credit will also go to Motorola’s clean and smooth software package. The Moto G6 handles the daily task without any hassle. But the phone also sometimes lags. And also gets a little warm during intensive workload. On the other hand, it never slows down too much.
Adreno 506 handles the Moto G6 games with G6 games firmly due to GPU. We realized some lags in loading the game with heavy graphics like Asphalt 8, but the gameplay was quite smooth.
Like most of today’s smartphones, Moto G6 has built in face recognition. But it is slow and intense. During the review, Moto G6 did not identify our face several times, even when there was enough light.
You will get a stock version of Android 8.0 Oreo which is fast and smooth. It also has features of some work given by Motorola, despite the stock Android experience. However, already installed Facebook Lite, PhonePe, LinkedIn and Outlook do a little spoil the experience. By the way, they can be deleted.
In our HD video loop test, the Moto G6 battery lasted for 8 hours 40 minutes which would be considered bad. However, performance is quite good in common use. The phone easily supported throughout the day. Talking about the use, we ran two hours Google Maps during this period. Social media apps like Twitter, WhatsApp and Facebook were also investigated. Played games like Asafalt 8 and Subway Surfers. And also captured selfies and some pictures.
Motorola has given a 15 watt turbo charger with the phone, which makes the phone fullcharge in about 1.5 hours. But the smartphone becomes quite hot during charging.
Moto G6 Camera
The Moto G6 has two cameras on the back. A 5 -megapixel secondary sensor has been given with a 12 -megapixel primary sensor. The Moto G6 has a 16 -megapixel sensor on the front panel. The rear part has dual LED flash and single LED flash on the front panel.
In the camera app you will find many features, such as text scanner mode that converts text written on the image into text and spot color mode. The phone has a Pro mode so that you will be able to manage white balance, ISO, exposure, shutter speed and aperture.
The performance of the front and rear camera is very average. Pictures taken at night from the rear camera are seen dark and puns. Noys are also very high. In the process of reducing the noise, the camera sharpens photos more.
Colors are accurate in photographs taken in appropriate light. But they do not have details as per our expectation. The dynamic range also disappoints a bit. In portrait mode you will be able to capture Bokeh shot which comes of average quality and the age detection is very bad. Blur effect is also not very accurate.
The condition of selfie is similar. The front light gives fine performance in sufficient light, but weakens in low light. In the direct sunlight, the camera overs the shot several times. Front LED flash definitely helps a little. You will be able to record 1080 pixels videos from the front and rear camera. Motorola’s electronic image is a good job of keeping stabilization video stable. But there is also a shortage of details in it.
Our decision
Moto G6 is very spectacular in appearance. It is a compact and is comfortable to use it with one hand. Battery life is also appreciated. The performance is fine and colors are accurate on the display, but it is not easy to use it in bright sunlight. The cameras are of extremely average quality and face recognition is very slow and intense.
The price of Moto G6 is very close to Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro and Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 which come with more powerful processor and better cameras. A little cheap Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 ,Review) The hardware specifications of the Moto G6 matches much. This is also a good option, especially in the case of Value for Money.
Interested customers were recently launched Realme1 ,Review) You can also consider which is more powerful. But it does not have a fingerprint sensor and its cameras are also average.
