Motorola Moto G5 Plus - User Reviews

  • Purchased G5 Plus on the launch date in 2017. It still runs smoothly, no major lag. My usage is pretty high, at least 6 hours every day. Twitter, YouTube, Reddit are my most used apps. Battery is still very impressive. It's impossible to kill the battery in a day unless you use it very heavily.

  • Purchased it on January 2018, still running smoothly with heavy usage in and outdoor. It has not seen any service center during this time period though I always keep it in back cover.

  • May be u don't know kid. It is made up of aluminium

  • Maybe look after your phone properly. Mine is 2 years and 2 months old. has always been in a bumper case because I work outdoors a lot and at heights. This phone has fallen 2 storeys once and it is still 100%

  • only lasted 1 year 2 months. not worth it, by a better phone and get a longer lasting phone

  • This has been a great phone for me the last few years. Better specs than even other newer Moto G phones. Unfortunately the Wifi antenna inside the unit stopped working so I'm getting a replacement from my phone carrier.

  • Are there any other modifications of that phone? I own US Moto g5plus and my ROM is 32gB and RAM is only 2Gb. That is why I am looking for a replacement and found that specs are unreal.

  • I have owned my MotoG5Plus for a couple of years and am thrilled with its performance, bettery life and overall utility. I can hardly believe i bought this unlocked phone for a little over $200. most of my savvy friends have spend three, four or five times as much for their phones, but I dont understand why. My only problem is going to be what phone to buy next. i dont think i can get the plus version of the motoG7, so i am still looking for my next phone. in the meantime, i am still very happy with my G5 Plus, and am not in a big hurry to upgrade.

  • Overall decent phone, some annoying aspects. The speaker is VERY quiet--I've had to turn on speakerphone and hold it to my ear in crowds sometimes. Due to the water resistant seal, it's expensive to repair. $85 to repair my power button which now does not work. Android updates to the phone happen roughly a year after their release date.

  • very poor service in kerala

  • Same day I'm also received Feb 2019 security patch.

  • I recieved Feb security patch today.

  • the biggest drawback is that the lock screen clock still does not change colour as per the background

  • Even i received it

  • recieved 1 feb patch today india

  • Received February security patch with WiFi and hotspot fix.

  • According to Motorola US and Indian official websites This product will no longer receive security updates. This device will remain on Android 8.1 (Oreo) Really disappointed with the update policy of Motorola!

  • Still no February patch in Finland! This is probably the last update for this phone but wtf Lenovo/Motorola?! It's almost May already!

  • Moto g4 got 8.1. We deserve 9.0 please..... One and a half years after release and we were out of the update line..... Not fair

  • also received the february patch. from Bangladesh

  • Thx guys waz about to buy one

  • its officially confirmed on moto website that this device will no longer recieve any security updates also when did u get feb patch ?

  • Where are you from and when did you get this newest update?

  • Mine is on Oreo 8.1 with the Februrary 2019 security update.

  • You are probably right but it may still get one security update, maybe Feb or March :)

  • it seems software support for this model comes to an end. last security update received in December. total 1 year 9 months support...

  • Absolutely correct man. It has IMX 362 (used in Google Pixel 2 XL) but becoz of shitty implementation and third class software processing most of the images turn out to be blurry and unusable. And don't ask about night images. Within 1 yr and 3 months this camera has turned from best in class to worst(maybe due to updates). I had very high hopes from Motorola, all in vain. And updates are very bad. Still on Dec '18 security patch. I think s/w support is almost over now. I have asked Motorola about it, but they are silent on Insta and Twitter. I have to search for a better smartphone now I guess. LENOVO ruined Motorola (I hope somebody from Motorola or Lenovo understand this or else their end is very near.)

  • Have been using this device (Indian version) for almost 2 years now. Thought since it's a stock Android phone, and Motorola promised updates, there would be nothing to worry about. But no, Motorola had other plans. No updates on time, almost ditched Oreo for this phone and when they did provide updates, they're full of bugs. No Night Mode, poor camera, 4GB + 32GB when every other manufacturer provides 4GB + 64GB at this price point. And on top of it, every successor has the only thing new, it's name, see Moto G7 for example. Same old stuff. No innovation, no nothing. This was my third and last Moto phone if they don't get their $hit together. Not getting my hopes up though. LENOVO RUINED MOTOROLA.

  • I have been using Moto G5 Plus from September 2017. The phone is good but it's internet connectivity is very poor especially WiFi. Within one year I had to reset my phone 4 times. I was using lenovo before that and that too has same issue.

  • India variant of this device XT1685 (dual-sim 4G) does not support band 41 which is listed here incorrectly. Referring to official Motorola India website, this device only supports bands 1,3,5,8,40 (no band 41). For me it connects to Vodafone 4G but without any carrier aggregation and hence the data speed is very slow.

  • Great phone overall. Only bugging cons are 32-bit OS and lack of Camera 2API(I know it can be enabled via ADB but it should have been out of the box) and slow updates of Motorola.

  • dec security patch recieved yesterday i'm from india

  • Received December security patch

  • Do factory reset few days before I did and some new notifications are detected.

  • Nope

  • any chance to receive security patch after october

  • can confirm, also having network issues since the update..

  • Got this phone a year ago. It has been perfect in every way. The camera is poor in low light situations. Other than that the phone is fast and I love all the features and aps. It stomps my wife's iPhone 7 big time. Great phone by Motorola!!

  • Facing a lot of network issues since Oreo update.

  • They need to listen to the Moto Lenovo community just like one plus and xiaomi (sometime) does

  • They're not going to do that

  • Dear Motorola Lenovo pls add dual VoLTE support, MI A1 got update with dual volte, both has same processor snapdragon 625

  • It's a good phone for the price, but Motorola should be more diligent into attend common issues detected by the public and bringing up security patches to their device in a critical way.

  • any chances to get november n december security patch

  • It's a good phone looks are not the killer performance quite good camera average. But try the feature that allows you to cancel navigation buttons using fingerprint pad to mine back and forth etc. Screen size experience improves a lot. Did it after 16 months of standard use. With this and Oreo it looks like a new device! Shame Motorola lost fast updates. Cuz the phone it's awesome

  • Camera optimization is what makes it better.Moto camera has lot of bugs.But atleast asus and nokia provide monthly update.You can wait for max pro m2 launching on 11th dec

  • I've received the update in September.I tried resetting it's working fine as of now

  • Moto camera app crashes hell lot of time.Atleast you can use gcam in that phone. Custom roms are not available in real me but in asus you can install it.Other than that moto is on 32 bit if you want to explore the camera then better install other roms.Moto is ruined by Lenovo

  • Yes,they do have

  • I got the 8.10 update today

  • After Oreo update can't choose messages sound and can't turn vibration off when receiving messages. Anyone knows the solution? Restart didn't change a thing.

  • Realme 1 realme 2 pro asus zenfone max pro honor Do theh all have better camera then moto g5 plus ????? ??? I don't think so (especially the realme 1) I hate when people answers my question when they don't know anything

  • Is this speculation, or did you upgrade to Oreo and experience issues that reset resolved, as you imply.

  • they need to fix the issue related to colour of clock on the lock screen now we get permanent colour light blue

  • Got laggier after Oreo update. Battery standby increased but Screen On Time reduced. No Gcam mod available on XDA.

  • Great phone and one of the best values around today. The build quality is solid and the features are great. A better battery and USB C charging would have added value to this model.

  • 2 pro costs 13000rs

  • Nokia 5.1

  • Real me 2 pro

  • Honor Phones

  • Real me 1

  • Zenfone max pro m1

  • Good phone 2018 ? At 9999rs Do you have better suggestion (especially for camera)?

  • The oreo update is taking ages to download. It's been 2hrs and I t has only been able to achieve 12mb of download. How can I restart the download.

  • About f*******ing time I received the oreo update(XT 1685) Thank you motoLenovo!! (not really, screw you!)

  • You can use PIP mode via YouTube App in India.Only if you're using an VPN and set it to USa

  • After updating to oreo, Good battery life, Heating issue less then nouget, As well as performance is also best in such kind of price...

  • Maybe they didn't push it at your region yet. Where are you from? But beware you can get the same issue like me which is frustrating. And Bootloader is also locked so I can't install custom rom. So I would say you should install a custom rom if you want oreo and you'll get more features in the 64 bit custom rom like Pixel Experience Rom. Gcam works only on 64 bit version and moto's official oreo is 32bit. So there is not much benefit in upgrading to official oreo.

  • why does it cut off then restart latter is it because battery over heated

  • I am not receiving the official OTA of android 8.1 yet. Do you know why?

  • Motorola needs to fix this

  • Me too facing the same issues..

  • I wish I had installed it before oreo update but then I thought I should wait for the official oreo, damn I waited for it. Now I'm screwed and stuck on this rom. 1. The bootloader has been updated to C0.92, so no way to unlock the bootloader for now. 2. Can't rollback to the Nougat because Motorola doesn't allow it. Downgrading can hard brick the phone. Only thing I can do is to wait for Motorola to push an OTA for these fixes or somebody finds a way to unlocks the new bootloader so I can install a custom rom.

  • Wifi is also not working from the far distance from where it is used to be working when it was on Nougat.

  • I got the update in the first week of October.

  • It is dropping when I'm near to the router and it is also dropping far from the router.

  • Already did after updating to oreo.

  • You need to reset your phone

  • Do you use customize rom of 64 bit?

  • I have one, and installed Pixel Experience... Works flawlessly, and with Google Camera

  • Wifi signal are getting drop when you're sitting far from the router

  • Even im facing this wifi signal drop issue

  • just got the update now. 8.1!

  • I got this phone on the launch day in India. So I'm using this phone for more than 1.5 Years it was working so good and then the late Oreo update came after so much delay so I thought they will provide a stable update but since the phone is updated to the Oreo 8.1, I'm facing battery drain issue and Wi-Fi drops issues which are very annoying and it's making my daily mobile experience worst. I did a factory reset after the update but it didn't solve the problem. Now I'm f***ed, can't even rollback to the Nougat because Motorola doesn't allow it. Also, many users are experiencing these problems.

  • Phone is still under warranty and is sporadically not receiving phone calls. Motorola will not honor the warranty. Beware!

  • Iam using this phone since past 1.5 years no issues Soo far it works smoothly battery life is good no heating issues.nice camera well done Motorola

  • Hhhhv in this price I can only get samsung galsxy s5 !!

  • I heard that this phone has the best camera at its price segment . Is this still true in 2018?If not could you please tell me the best camera of smartphone under 200$ Thanks

  • Any one facing heating issue after the update?

  • High on moto?

  • Hey Guys, How you doing? I must say this device is the one I have become the most devoted to! - I love it! Why? Simply because the format and the over all handling compatibility! Its got the right dimensions and weight in my hand. Its screen ratio and color handling are awesome in my hand. Most phones today come in the prolonged screen size. As a matter of fact i despite these formats, who have become too heavy and to clumsy to hold on to my hand! Oled /Amoled? Not really my necessary thing. - And you know what? It makes fine pictures, although not compatible like an iPhone or ASUS Zenphone 5, both of which supposively can work extremely well in low light situations. Hey! This is a mobile phone int the first place that comes with a mobile surf pad partner! The ease of way connecting with WiFi, Bluetooth and e - mail servers, surpasses iPhone software according to my experiences. Talking about software; while the ASUS Zenphone and the One Plus 6 are built up on almost identical components, although from different manufacturers, they both have their own operating systems built on Android plattform. I found that having own designed software means extra processing in your device. In addition to this ASUS are very well known to add some whole lot of Bloat Ware that will only sink ones performance. The more extra processes have to run the faster the battery will run out, so forget that certain devices have that extra battery capacity! What about that price? Now that is a totally unbelievable price! It looks like we are now gonna be talking! I am going to get my third moto G5s Plus device! One for making hone calls and one for my active surf pad, while the third for my gaming pad. Yes I said it! - I use them all for gaming pads in between - they function and they work well!

  • For camera go for samsung s series

  • Nope. Notifications are arriving normally.

  • Even I'm having this issue

  • yes

  • Are you talking about the moto display

  • on lock screen now the clock color remains light blue only it used to change to different colors earlier in nougat

  • Guys,Any of you facing the issue of not getting notifications from YouTube even after pressing the bell. icon?

  • Congratulations

  • Finally got oreo today and i must say it is worth it. But nougat was not half bad either. Unfortunately the security fix is still of August 2018.

  • After waiting for Oreo like forever I got rid of my G5 Plus yesterday and bought Nokia 6.1 Plus and it's a relief. Nokia 6.1 Plus already on Oreo 8.1 and today Nokia announced that it will receive Android Pie this month plus HMD promised major updates for 2 years of it's AndroidOne based phones! Better screen, better performance than G5 Plus and quick updates, I am not going to buy Moto again if it stays with Lenovo.

  • moto display says notification says notifications will fade in and out once message or call arrives but there is no fade in n out, the screen does not light up unless u lift up mobile whats the use..

  • Got Oreo Update today. File size more than 1 gb.

  • Is redmi s2 camera better than this ?

  • If you want to only get Motorola go for One Power

  • No Doubt g6, or if you looking for something more better get g6 plus

  • Don't go for Motorola ... It's better you go for Honor ,Realme,Nokia or Vivo

  • Which one has the best rear camera moto g5 plus g5s plus or g6 ? please answer me

  • ha ha ..looks like u too waiting don't know what kind of batch distribution they are following

  • I know it's soon since last year

  • At last oreo came :) phone is more smooth than before. one good thing is we can see the battery percentage for Bluetooth devices :)

  • I recieved today. But suddenly it has been gone. What happened to it

  • Its minor upgrade nothing great than nougat

  • Soon

  • No i didn't get it so far...still in queue lolzz Abt uhh

  • I see every one now able to receive when will I it's over a week still no clue

  • Still waiting

  • Guys downloading the oreo 8.1 update from India. At last congrats.

  • Still awaiting in india

  • after oreo update they should have added approach to display feature available on x4

  • i see two good advantages after update (nougat was not bad ) we can see battery percentage we can easily add ringtones or notification ringtones negative now we dont see clock on lock screen in different colours (its only single colour , althought its brighter than before)

  • still awaiting..

  • Still no Oreo update. Model No.XT1687 Serial No.ZY223ZT2H7

  • Wifi connectivity is also an issue after the update

  • Yes,It almost take half a second to unlock

  • Mumbai, Maharashtra

  • after oreo update when we lock the mobile using fingerprint scanner there is a slight delay anyone has similar issue

  • Still not received , Awaiting for the notification let's see when it come to end :P

  • Which state

  • has anyone received the oreo update for the XT1685 model??

  • I've received the update

  • Wifi connectivity

  • What about new oreo 8.1 OS. Is there any problems?

  • Soon you will receive too

  • No one recieved oreo

  • xt1686 y m not receiving update fedup situation

  • Received yesterday and much better from naugat in operation.

  • Oreo is pretty much fluid than nougat

  • Zy2245L9Kp

  • True. But these are the issues you need to live with when you decide to go for an el cheapo chinese device. I generally buy sonys but went for g5 plus while i saved for xz3. Will be soon purchasing note 9/ pixel 3/ xz3. The software on these chinese devices is horrendous. Camera and apps keep crashing and barely any updates.

  • Finally received the update

  • I've not received the update yet

  • He was asking about the serial number and not the model number of your device

  • I also have the XT 1686 but yet not received the Oreo.

  • Model XT 1686

  • Started to Receive Oreo Enjoy

  • So frustrating that update is lost when storage is to be freed. In system update saying"Your device is up to date" Pathetic service by Moto. Why are they releasing updates in "batches"? Learn something from Nokia(HMD Global).Moto releasing Oreo after 1 yr and not pushing direct OTA update.👿👿 You are definately gonna lose out your loyal consumers. Will never recommend any Moto device to anyone. BYE BYE MOTO!

  • What is your serial no. bebause of my serial no is start form z series

  • Yep. Seems so. But everyone will have it in 2-3 days.

  • I received Oreo today in the morning at 9 am. I am from gujarat.

  • still not got oreo in india whats the problem ??

  • They have stopped the update

  • Chill Dude..... Jus visit your nearby service centre they will upgrade your device to 8.1 build don't worry it will take MAX TO MAX 30 MINS. Jus bring your bill or may be they will trace by your IMEI number.

  • Same problem

  • They rolled out on 26 sept. But today it is not there.. Maybe they put it on hold..

  • anyone received oreo in india for g5 plus

  • there is a folder download check it there are some half downloded file batch of oreo if yes delete it, n start new download (happened with my xiaomi device once)

  • I have done everything. It just isn't coming up again. Restarted the phone like 4 times.

  • but more moto then

  • right, buy another moto mobile next time u buy

  • Best phone.clasic and slim design.good mobile

  • Still the best budget phone in the world, even with the Nougat.

  • mayb u can restart i will show update again

  • Funny thing. I got the notification on 26 sept and i started to download the update. In between it prompted me to clear some space to accomodate the update. I went on to clear the space and now it no longer shows the update and i am still left on nougut lol.

  • anyone got oreo in india ???

  • Lol so funny

  • 6gb ram + 128 gb storage

  • anyone got oreo in india

  • got it! Which one did you purchase ?

  • It doesn not support WideVine L1 so you can't stream HD videos .It is not a deal breaker because most of the people who prefer buying it would rather download videos from torrent than subscribing for Netflix or other streaming site

  • Screen bleeding issue is with some handset.

  • So true mate, But i've a question for you i am also planning to get the poco f1 phone but after heared about streaming bugs and screen leakage display i stepped back , did you face the screen leakage or something?

  • they should have released updates on g5 plus first (since it was released earlier) on the contrary they r releasing on g5s plus first never in my life with i buy moto again

  • What are the better options there is only redmi s2 and huawei y7 prime at his price

  • it was said on 7 of this month also they are rolling out oreo updates i think they are testing our patience , common sense, virtue, wisdom n forgiveness..lol i already got my poco f1 yesterday, but overall moto phones are good

  • Nops!! but as per xda articles they claiming moto started seeding update on g5 and g5 plus at the same time for india region starting today , lets see what brings in commencing hours or day.. :P

  • Have you got it

  • Yes it is..and work perfectly

  • Guys, Oreo 8.1 update started hitting g5/g5 plus Indian variants now..

  • forget face id , this does even have oreo till now.. anyways r u planning to buy this mobile now there are lot of better options ...

  • Does this phone has face id ??

  • Yep, same here :/ Gone are the days when Motorola (before it was acquired by crappy Lenovo) was one of the quickest OEM's to give major Android updates. Lenovo ruined everything!

  • Lenevo sucks

  • no oreo still...

  • that was ur decision snapdragon is anyday better than Exynos

  • But moto still a reliable phone i bought a samsung j7 prime instead of this one and it was my worst decision g5 plus have better proccesor display and camera and have more sensors

  • Whenever I put my phone on charge my phone app does not work. It hangs and I'm not able to receive calls or dial any number.im facing this issue since last 2 months constantly. Everytime i charge my phone it repeats this same issue. unused memory of my phone is 1.7 gb and storage is nearly 20.08 gb. It's a 32 gb phone. Please help. It's is really a big issue for me to put my phone in charging now.

  • although moto says they have released oreo updates, i still doubt we will get it before g6 plus has good sale they have put oreo updates on hold for so long..

  • If they were genius they would have focus on Pie... Because customers will be more happy and create more interest of the new customer

  • I think they are foolish

  • Guys, do try to understand that Moto is playing a game, a powerplay... They want Moto g5 series to rise to fame anyhow... This is all psychologically controlled and new customers are gonna look at it like... Hey look this at this device.. there are so many people who are asking for update ... Now, Update will come sooner or later but the seemingly large popularity of people asking sets mental impression.. leading to a hell freaking lot of advertisement by the consumers itself..!!!!!!! And a device like Moto g5 plus is therefore available at such prices now ... Oreo rollout beginning.. is the trick for the Moto to attract attention itself for the newly launching g6 series... Motorola isn't lazy or anything they are genius....!!!!! So, I too am waiting for update.. lolz

  • It's to late for Oreo I am already migrated form Moto Bye bye Moto never ever buy any Moto device

  • lenovo ruined my phone. never getting a moto phone again unless they actually start updating their shit. which probably won't happen

  • Motorola did a very big mistake to sell their company to lenevo. Lenevo sucks.

  • i urge ppl not to buy moto phones at all there are a lot of other phones in market..go give them a try..atleast once they fail to provide timely android updates they keep delaying the updates for no valid reason lenovo has takes life out of moto RIP Moto

  • Nokia 6

  • Its the beta version anyway you will getting the bugs with it

  • Even i had registered for the soak test.But i was fortunate enough to get the update

  • Yes you need to. Even after that its not certain that you will receive the soak test software. They seed the update to a select few only.

  • Hallo there, how do I register for the soak test. I also need the oreo update for my G5 plus

  • No update to Oreo.I think chinese lenovo company is not carring of customers,who purchased Motorola phones for pure Moto experience.

  • Where in the funk is Oreo?!? At least i get security updates once in a while.

  • "My G4 also failed to recognise ..." The comments here are for G5 Plus, not G4.

  • love the phone, no problems for me. Battery lasts 3 days, and never realized how useful fast charging could be. Would have liked a dual SIM

  • Sick and tired of the phone ghosting and the keyboard locking and typing whatever it wants, drives me nuts, overheats continually having to turn off and on and reboot annoying when you have an important call to make. My G4 also failed to recognise SIM so time to say goodbye to Moto...

  • Lenevo is not listening anything.

  • In India any one got update 8.1??

  • G5 plus or X4 or Nokia 6? only g5 plus has 4gb ram for US, seems all have complaints against them, not many good mid-range for North American Market, no sd 636 or 660, always older 630 or 625.

  • :D

  • Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 is better than Redmi Note 5 Pro

  • Redmi note 5 pro is way better than moto g5 plus.

  • Love this phone, not happy about it taking so long to update to OREO, i'm thinking Nokia is the way to go for me.

  • Update is on the way

  • Yes

  • Horrible phone. Issues with camera not starting, random restarts, power button broke, not receiving text messages, and dropping data , etc. Worst phone that I have ever used. Never buying motorola again, Lenovo just has poor quality.

  • I bought moto g5 plus from flipkart and it doesn't have information sticker on screen should I return it?

  • Bought this last year (2017) in august. Now one year ago...still on Android 7.0. A fokking disgrace. Never again Motorola. Update policy is way too slow.

  • Motorola Feedback Network

  • MFN?

  • Retus

  • MFN users have received android 8.1.0

  • Bad service for under warranty mobile

  • Retin.

  • Hi! what is the software channel of your moto?

  • Installed June security update yesterday.

  • Small correction: *1050 MB

  • Well i have registered for the soak test. Notification has popped up already in my phone. However, i will update it at some time later in the day. The update is around 1050 GB and I am little short on data for the day.

  • Information sharing on this matter. My phone had been back to normal as the service center change my phone mainboard. Now the battery work fine.

  • Go to hell lenevo

  • Soak tests for G5S+ has been going on since June, still no stable release yet. So don't get your hopes high, it may take a month or two before G5+ gets Oreo.

  • This is NOT upgradeabel to 8.0

  • Yes i too saw the news :)

  • Android 8.1 Oreo has started seeding to beta testers in some countries on G5+ . It bring many new features and fixes and comes with July security patch. Expected to hit normal users in few weeks.

  • Never buy again moto

  • Not on Brazil. Here we only got a 2GB / 32GB, dual sim version, with FM radio and digital TV included. Only with the new Z3 and G6 we got the chance to acquire more powerful versions of the phones.

  • correct such delay is not expected from company like Moto never again will i buy moto..

  • Definitely its not food for us but it's food for our mobile.

  • Oreo is not really food that without it you will starve to death. Security patches is what is more important.

  • Keep waiting till the end of the world.

  • keep waiting

  • Well i did get upto June security patch in India. Waiting for oreo.

  • Finally it was a hoax, so called oreo update with june security patch my foot! Still no oreo now its another hoax/rumored g5 plus will get oreo in August they will keep spearding rumours for next month and so on and oreo will rollout god knows when it will come

  • Just now got june security patch update. Still no sign of Oreo. So pissed off. I'm planning to root this phone and flash pixel experience ROM available on xda developers. Has anyone done this before and if so, how is the experience with this ROM?

  • Lenevo dont make another phones please. Sold your company.

  • Motorola at this moment is the worst for updating phones...

  • Only with chromecast... no other option

  • Got mine last year , after the warranty expired one month ago , the battery can't hold charge and the only two update over OTA for whole year. Good luck if you are considering it as this phone doesn't last

  • The Worst part is that call is getting disconnected after 24 minutes of long call and every time i am getting the announcement that dialled number is invalid during call only. @ Moto team please help

  • beta user only..it will take another 2 months for everyone

  • Yes,the update has started to roll out to all the beta user

  • No yet.

  • No

  • Is Oreo starting lunch? Can I change IP for update to Oreo? I am from Serbia. Thanks

  • This type of problem is very common...If it still get error even after force stop and clear data...Then look whether you have installed any third party camera app or not.. If it is then uninstall it and then do a reboot... Your camera app will get back to normal

  • never but moto again

  • while launching camera app if u see a prompt msg "camera error please restart camera" most of the time then go to settings>apps>camera>clear cache and force stop and launch camera app again if u r still facing camera issue then hard reset the phone if still camera doesn't work then Welcome to the club, these camera error issue is common on this handset

  • camera is not working.. what to do ??

  • Great device but still stuck on Android 7.0 not even 7.1 let alone Oreo 8.0. Very disappointed with Lenovo

  • I will guess couple more months... if ever.

  • When .moto give update oreo...??

  • no man, I have the XT1680 version and it comes with 2gb of ram and 32gb storage...

  • Xiaomi Mi Note 3 for example...

  • can anyone suggest better mobile than this with snapdragon and screen size 5'5

  • Yes it has night mode function but u have to enable it manually, u can find the method via YouTube

  • Is there a night display function, reading regime or sth, filter for the blue light generally speaking pre-installed in this phone??? Or is it coming with Oreo-upgrade?

  • No, do not buy motorola phone, You will suffered, because after selling phone Motorola do not care about updates and support. They only care about sells and revenue.

  • when did moto release 2 GB version for this mobile..that too with 32 GB ..lol it was released in 3GB or 4GB only

  • People who are saying this phone is crap are saying bullshit. I have the weakest version (2GB RAM, 32GB storage) and even this one works great. The only bad thing about it is Motorola's continuous delay in releasing Android 8.0 for it.

  • Nokia 6.1 2018 if its all about updates and monthly security patch

  • This is very ugly phone..this is a very cheapest phone..this is a worldest useless phone..I have been gone to depression after purchase this Moto g5 plus phone...so plzzzz. Plzzzz plzzzz plzzzz plzzzz Don't purchased this worldest cheapest phone Moto g5 plus .... thanks

  • Don't go for any of these, have a look @ honor phones, asus Zenfone max pro, Redmi note 5pro etc has better soc, battery, dual camera setup and latest 18:9 display

  • This one or Nokia 6.1 2018...???

  • I am using phone since 1 month but unable to use castscreen option ,as it is not mapping to my smart tv , can any one help how to activate .

  • U can delete call records just open the app tap in middle clock icon and tap on the number and tap on call details and on the upper right corner u will get delete option. Hope that helps

  • Actually, my doubt is regarding the call list history in that there is no option for deleting a particular call from call list..

  • You might have rooted and used a customer rom and maybe u downgrade or something like that and lost imei no bcoz this is a major problem in this moto phones

  • When I started the phone was great but suddenly it lost the imei no it became zero. It came with android 7 and they wont upgrade it to 8 as of June 2018 So I will never have another moto phone.

  • depends on the price. It´s still worth it, has NFC chip unlike the others, 12mp camera with f/1.7 aperture, 3gb RAM, slot for two nano sim cards + micro sd. If you don´t the bezel (design) while the others have moved to a bezeless design, it´s a fine phone. It´s still better than a G6, or a G6 play, even a G6 plus (their almost on par)

  • Most likely disabled.

  • Excuse me but i just completed San Andreas, Bully and Assassins creed on the G5 plus and it handled all of those pretty darn good.

  • Better models such as?

  • No Its 2018 now it doesn't make sense have a look at honor 9 lite , 7x moto g6 series, Xiaomi note 5 pro, Asus Zenfone max pro m1, nokia x6 & mi a2 can come anytime

  • Easy, do the research on your own.

  • should i buy motorola moto g5 plus? please answer soon and also please suggest an alternative phone

  • very low in call audio. almost impossible to have a conversation while on streets. otherwise, no problems so far for the 4 days i have it.

  • u bought it too late there are better phone at a cheap now available in market..

  • Just got one of these direct from Motorola. I got the 64gb model for under $200. By the time I got a proper screen protector, slim case, a 64gb micro SD card, and a nice pocket friendly pouch (yes, I'm one of those people), I'm in about $235.00 total. Not bad at all for this level of phone. It's a solid mid to high tier device with killer all around performance. And that's what this is about... the total package. It's not the fastest thing, but it's pretty quick; it doesn't have gobs of battery life, but it easily lasts me, as a heavy user, though an entire day; the camera is no Pixel 2 XL, but it's really nice. That's what this phone was made for; to tick all the boxes, though it might not be the best at any of them. Damn solid choice, and maybe the best budget phone at or around $200 right now.

  • Motorola flash an OS for a customer LMFAO, no they won't. You're better off finding your current firmware version (Lenovorola will NOT provide these to customers, Use Android File Host, lolinet or firmware.center to find your firmware. Make sure it reads exactly the same as it does in your phone settings) and flashing it yourself with this in bootloader mode: fastboot oem fb_mode_set fastboot flash partition gpt.bin fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img fastboot flash logo logo.bin fastboot flash boot boot.img fastboot flash recovery recovery.img fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin fastboot flash oem oem.img fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0 fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1 fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2 fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3 fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4 fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin fastboot erase modemst1 fastboot erase modemst2 fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn fastboot erase cache fastboot erase userdata fastboot erase customize fastboot erase clogo fastboot oem fb_mode_clear fastboot reboot

  • I had purchased MOTO G 5 Plus on 9 Jan 18 noew it has started heating and also it is not charging kindly help me.

  • Conform bro

  • Try a restart or Hard reset if still doesn't work then visit motorola service centre and ask them to reflash the OS

  • The phone is not good . ( Its heats up- gaming not possible it hangs a lot wen gaming )

  • After the last update im facing many bugs like apps crashing....now the google assistant is crazy and starting automatically...is being triggered as i type this don't know how to fix this... sometimes the volume gets decresed without me doing anything..

  • Is the oreo update for moto g5 plus is coming with camera2 api enabled?.. or disabled?...

  • No oreo update before the launch and success of Moto g6 series

  • First week of june oreo should come

  • Oreo update available or not?

  • Nokia 6 is garbage. I recently had one and immediately sold him.Lots of lags,and to slow procesor make me do that. G5 plus without doubt

  • dont buy nokia its expensive wit no features only if u like frequent updates

  • Yup

  • u mean the may security patch?

  • Any one got may security patch??

  • Why not go for nokia 6.1 2018 @ same price

  • Till moto launch g6 series and hit selling Target in India

  • When will we get Oreo update?

  • If camera is not ur highest priority ok with average camera then go for Asus Zenfone max pro m1 sd 636, 5000mah battery , 6" 18:9 display , almost stock android , 2sim + sd card support etc.. g5 plus in 2018 is not a good deal

  • should i buy Nokia 6 2017 or moto g5 plus? (that's my budget)

  • Disconnect the USB cable from the power brick ( wall adapter) and reconnect properly. I had this issue as my USB cable was not connected properly to the adapter and while charging it was showing 6 hours to full charge. I connected properly and it's back to normal.

  • Other update this time april security update.

  • I have faced this problem. Now i'm using custom Rom (Android 8.1 Orio). Problem solved.

  • Thats a usual problem. Write imei manually. imei writing apps available in play store.

  • My Moto G5Plus's Proximity sensor Not working properly. Moto making scrap phones. I dont like it.

  • No. Charging time is same as new. You try one thing... turn off your mobile and connect the charger. If it is charging fast, then some battery sucking programs working in background. If the charging is taking long time even in off position, then there is a hardware problem and need to be repaired.

  • I have a G5 Plus and I am having problems with the ring sound. Unless I turn on the media and alarm volume up all the way, my phone will not ring. I need help.

  • I'm facing slow charging issues...Do anyone facing the same issue...Plzz tell me the solution about it

  • Surf on xda developer u will find a solution for Imei and Volte issue

  • I bought a moto g5 plus I changed the rom to a oreo 8.1 rom suddenly the IMEI was o It lost the no altogether motorolla says its hardware. I dont know but I cant beleive they haven't updated from 7.0 to Oreo

  • Yes you can. Mi A1 is garbage. G5 plus is always a better phone if you dont mind the updates much ( security updates keep arriving though).

  • thy have made mockery of customer using moto phones

  • OK. I did not used Xiaomi phones yet, but I heard that they are giving updates regularly. Any way, time to sell our moto g5 plus.

  • Even Google and iPhone give update

  • Only Nokia and asus...not even xiaomi

  • I dont care lenevo send oreo update to g5 plus or not.because i will sell it when mia2 available.

  • Try with some diff sim cards and visit motorola service centre and ask them to reflash the OS and then try it maybe bcoz of some software bug

  • Thanks for your reply. Before that my phone also perform very well, after I travel to Hong Kong and get the new March patch update, once I touch down Malaysia this issue happen. I had tried to run in safe mode after fully charge but the result still the same, it will drop at least 20% when I woke up (after appox. 6 hours). The main thing I found out is the cellular network signal keep maintain in red or orange colour, seldom in green or light green. This happened even I put in flight mode.

  • Using this phone from April 2017 and there is no battery draining issue until now. I think some battery sucking applications working in background. Please check. Moto G5 Plus is fantastic in battery back up.

  • Anyone facing battery draining issue? My Moto G5 Plus facing battery draining issue as I fully charge at night but battery drop down to approx 75% when I wake up (5.30am). Just about 6 hours it drop massively, I try on airplane mode when it 100% but result is still same when I wake up (approx 6 hours). My Moto G5 Plus had been updated to March security patch. I notice that even when I on airplane mode, cellular network signal show red in the battery status. Any advice or solution? Thanks in advance.

  • right

  • All companies are focusing on the sales of their new products.. They are not thinking about the users who already bought their phones. Only xiaomi is giving updates regularly.

  • Motorola is on losses...They are cutting jobs of their employees all over the world... The day when Motorola got acquired by Lenovo.. Motorola started delaying update and patches

  • You know tha wrost thing about moto phones it hv been more than a year but still not getting oreo update ..even security update are too late...appplication crashes most of the time ....

  • Its 1st may,but still not got 8.0 oreo. Sucks lenevo.shame on you.even xiaomi phone r getting update very fast.

  • Has rootless launchers for the Moto G5 Plus

  • you go here: unlocked bootloader, flash twrp. then create a full backup with the efs and persist in twrp. take that backup and put it on a thumbdrive or somewhere you'll never lose it. if you flash to an 8.1 rom and back to stock without that backup, your get imei 0. there isn't a fix for this, all the threads about it are stupid questions or bad advice that put users in a worse situation.

  • No, it's not. The support sucks, the camera sucks, the vol+/- and power button can get jammed and stuck, XT1687 just got January security patch 3 months late. Lenovo ruined motorola devices.

  • European(xt1685) model in the uk

  • There's no compass on the UK version which I was told there was by the supplier (Carphone W'house) I won't be buying third Moto G because there's no compass. Other hand that, it's a great phone.

  • Which country??

  • Try clear all cache and restart the phone, then try to check the screen under safe mode, if the screen still flicks, then you should change a new screen for your G5 Plus. Here is a video tutorial, it might helps.

  • When are available update oreo and Moto g5 plus nougat launch then after not update latest Android Moto are very boring

  • just now received the april security patch update! :D still no oreo update here :(

  • The version for the US market doesn't include NFC support; this should be announced more loudly than it has been, because now I have to return this otherwise lovely phone and start shopping again.

  • U need to flash the rom for better customization

  • Still no Oreo

  • Got the march update

  • Customising the UI via a launcher won't bring the NFC toggle or dark background under the Settings.

  • I am not into rooting and i am not familiar with rooting. And besides rorting will either damage your phone (if you are not familiar) or void the warranty anyway.

  • Don't go for it, Mi A1 is good as compared to g5 plus now

  • Is this still worth to buy in 2018? My other option is Xiaomi A1, which is better?

  • They won't release oreo for g series unless they sold a good amount of units bcoz I think if they release oreo for g series now then G6 series sales will go down specs are very average for a 2018 phone

  • No one will buy g6 plus. Due to lenevo poor software update scheduled.

  • At least they are providing update and monthly security patch...you can customize if ua bored with android ui

  • Nokia 7 plus also good...You can use custom launcher and do some tweak via rooting

  • Yes but no specific date for Moto G series. Moto G6 Series Will Get Only One Major Android Update, No Update for Moto E5 Lineup date for Orio in Moto G series 2017,

  • The newer late-2017/early-2018 phones seem a very decent lot especially the mid-range ones i.e. Nokia 6 and above. But I had the old Nokia 6 and had to sell it on ebay. The Android software is too stock which for me is not good (prefer the way Motorola does it), there are no NFC quick shortcut toggle, no water resistance, no fast USB Type-C and no fast LTE speeds. Same goes for the Nokia 6 2018.

  • Now what g6 series has been launched. Lenevo should send oreo update for g5 plus immediately.

  • Which model do you have???

  • Nokia by Hmd global

  • Yes, i got it about week ago. Finland.

  • Considering the release dates of phones which Android OEM maker is still wee bit faster than the other one (in chronological order please) when it comes to software updates, security updates, bug fixes, emergency fixes, etc...Samsung, Motorola or Huawei/Honor?

  • After few months it gets some heating issue

  • Yes. A little over a week ago.

  • No

  • anybody got March security patch gor moto g5 plus??

  • Hi, If u are not satisfied with service center u still have further warranty, if still issue does not resolves try step by step rooting guide (rooting device voids warranty).

  • Hong Kong Reigion

  • my phone has been suddenly stopped within 3 months after purchased it. in service centre, not satisfactory process has been done. still today it is not started

  • Ua from which country??

  • We'll see. According to Motorola official forums, Oreo should come very soon: or

  • *Maybe

  • If this is really the truth, it's totally retarded! According to this list, even Sweden will get Oreo for G5 Plus but not Finland... ...doesn't make any frikkin sense!

  • May it won't come, for Finland it's not in the list. Same for Slovakia. I consider buying this phone, but this is what makes me bit worried. Hopefully it' just poor info on their page:

  • My XT1685 just received the March security patch.

  • The finger print is not worked probably

  • Yeah, i got it couple of days ago but more importantly... where is Oreo update for European region? I'm from Finland. Oreo is already available in Asian region, am i right?

  • Very unhappy person. There are so many things that do not work properly and can't get help anywhere. I use Consumer Cellular which is a great company but they do not have answers either. One example: the photo attached to all text messages and emails does not show up except if I text myself.... I did that as a test...No signal to let me know there is a voice mail and the number that shows up is the same all the time and unknown to me. Just two small examples. I didn't want to spend a lot of money so went for the Android but now will have to spend more and get an IPhone which I should have done from the start. Would not recommend this to anyone.

  • my charger is not working/damaged. i have purchased the set on march 2018.any suggestion for replacement?

  • When I set a picture took by camera as wallpaper its stretched vertically. I thought it would be fixed later updates, but nothing happened. Any solution for this?

  • When are available Android Oreo Moto g5 plus very late already another moto mobile are update Oreo

  • Have anybody got March security patch update..?? What's about your camera result ...??? Have your camera updated or not..?? Mine mobile's camera updated. It's back camera is mind blowing but front is good. What's your opinion after update ..??

  • Try a hard reset, might be software bug

  • I purchased my phone exactly one year back. From the past 4-5 months my Instagram videos are not playing. I have tried everything. Battery drains very quickly even if the mobile data is off. Phone gets restarted every night at a fixed time. I have checked all the settings available. Does anyone have any idea about these issues?

  • Heating is a big issue with this phone..

  • Try to calibrate battery , make sure charger is ok if still doesn't work replace ur battery

  • What facility is missing?

  • It is the time to repair your mobile. I am using for one year and still no problems.

  • moto g5s plus 4gb 64gb ram- the mobile is a worst one. it is not user friendly. most of the facilities are not available in this mobile. i made a big mistake in purchasing this mobile.

  • My phone's charging has become very slow. In two hours it's charged for 50% almost and it's getting over heated as well.

  • There are either no info or inaccurate infos out there re this phone having a compass or e-compass the very least. There are no info on the official UK site. I'm not bothered by its bezels coz for me it is much less worse than those gawdawful Xperia phones with bezels as big as a ship.

  • I would have hoped this was on Oreo 8.0 right now the very least. Shame it has got no compass or even an e-compass. (No info on the UK site) For 18:9 is a gimmick and dual camera is increasingly not a priority for me anymore. I don't think this is an irrelevant phone coz with a smaller aperture and dual pixel feature it can still compete with a 1-2 year old flagship me thinks. Yes I did hear the G6 line is coming. But we don't even know the exact specs and timeline of release in the UK or Europe. I reckon India and Asia will be first then here.

  • 1. Improving, but a little. Bezels are little disappointing thing in this phone. 2. I washed my phone 3-4 times. Still working good. 3. I heard so. Europe model coming with Compass. 4. Android 7.0 out of the box, but upgradable to Oreo (as per reports). No updates received yet). Overall performance is fantastic.

  • Yes it if u enable fingerprint gesture, but still it has that thick bezel It is dust and splash proof so maybe it can handle that light rain for limited time No, only US phones has compass sensor No, still stuck on android 7 If u r thinking to buy this phone in 2018 then I suggest u to wait for G6 series this phone doesn't make sense yeah it has some plus points like camera etc but no latest android , no 18:9 display etc , dual or quad camera etc

  • If you want a budget powerhouse, go with this.

  • Based on my basic needs I feel this may be my next phone. But I want to ask: 1. Does the screen to body ratio actually improves when you disable the on-screen nav buttons? 2. Is the phone safe against the odd spills and light rain? 3. Does the Europe model come with a magnetometer (e-compass) or compass? 4. Does it now come with Android 8.0 or 8.1?

  • Yes it has proper dual sim plus sd card slot u can move apps and data but use a fast memory card for better performance

  • does it has dedicated memory card slot on which we can move games and apps etc.??

  • Since the years 1992 that I start the mobile phone in Venezuela and used Motorola equipment, excellent features, when the operating system comes out android I switched to samsung but I regret it because I just tried a fifth generation Motorola and its price / performance ratio is excellent, much better, meets what they offer, I really express 1000% cell phones this given an extraordinary performance, and I recommend the version for Usa, I hope they update soon to version 8 of android

  • Try a diff charger/cable ,try a hard reset if still doesn't work then might be hardware issue (battery/usb port)

  • Same problem here...

  • Might be software bug try a hard reset, it should solve the problem

  • Anyone face charging problem My phone sometimes not chrage but in screen it was Turbo power connected But after switch off then on it will charging freely Please tell me what is the problem

  • My g5 Plus is one year old now. Still working smooth. But I tired waiting for Oreo.

  • My moto g5 plus work slow because toush secreen Lenovo very bad the camera application very slow 1 year no update android os im very dispoint for Lenovo product

  • Android OS takes 7.41 GB of internal storage

  • They launched 64gb model in US markets with compass sensor, regarding storage available in 32 gb model u will get apprix 23-24 gb free and its has proper dual sim + sd card option

  • super fast mobile in budget range ..... I played almost every game its response is super great thanks Motorola .....

  • Already a year have passed.but no major update has found.waiting for oreo for a long time.shame on moto:a lenovo company.why lenovo don't give any update.phone is still working so well but when will we get oreo update?????

  • the moto g5 plus 32 GB - how much internal storage does OS and pre installed apps take up?? wondering it I should get 64 GB instead? thanks for any help!

  • I just bought this and it's great. It's definitely worth buying @ $200, even with the 32GB / 2GB-RAM version. Android Oreo is available.

  • correct moto is not worth buying anymore

  • Campass is not working

  • yes .. in next 6 months for sure

  • Will g5 plus get oreo update ??????????

  • yeah agree its almost year now since g5 plus was launched but no major os update I think they are delaying updates bcoz of g6 series and maybe after g6 launch they will push out oreo

  • Lenevo+update=what a joke

  • Even though this phone performs very nice, no major update since the release is a disappointment. They offered quick updates, but it is about one year, only two-three security patch updates received.

  • I was going to buy a Samsung phone but when i read the reviews that said this phone was significantly better than the Samsung model, I decided to get the Motorola. I'm very happy with the phone. It does everything and more. I notice in previous reviews complain about small things which seem so trivial. It's a budget phone, it does a fantastic job, very responsive with lots of nice features. I ended up buying another one less than a week after my first purchase for my wife.

  • Front camera not good overall .Back camera in daylight very good.In night need correction

  • First I said Moto will get quick updates not honor read again, second moto has better aperture true hardwade is good but image processing system is not that good sometime its good and sometime worst (zoom in) like hit or a miss also I own g5 plus thats why I'm writing this also honor has slightly better camera setup in comparison btw Moto and honor camera I will go with honor (for camera) third 625 vs kirin 659 performance is good on both but 659 is designed and made by honor so they are well optimized with there phone regarding ram management and gaming Moto goes ahead.. rest if you really wanna buy this device in 2018 then I would say go with other brand if u r thinking g5 plus has f1.6 aperture so it will perform like S6/S7 then my friend u r wrong think twice before buying this specially for camera rest is your choice

  • But if you look at the actual technical hardware of these phones particularly the aperture, lens/pixel/sensor size the G5 Plus is by fare better than the Honor 9 Lite don't you think?

  • I disagree with you on the camera and performance front. If you look at the actual hardware (aperture and lens size) the G5 Plus has an advantage. Snapdragon has historically been top of the midrange processors from the 625 all the to 660. What made you say Honor's SoC is better? I also disagree with Honor having faster updates. That's actually not true in my opinion. The fact that EMUI is a heavy skin of Android that makes it slower and again historically Honor has been slow with updates.

  • Good deal. Just keep in mind, the US version has no NFC and the camera is sub quality. If you would have said $200, then I would have said no, because for example the Honor 7X is being sold for $199 (and a lot of other phones now) and with the same kinda price they offer more. There are a lot of midrange phones (used to be $400-500) from last year offered now at budget price so keep an eye out for them, and probably more budget phones are just about to be released in the next few months.

  • I don't know, but I had the Honor 6X for a few days last year and it was making a whole lot better pictures. Actually I liked pictures from that better than from my iphone 6S at the time.

  • Purchased moto g5 plus in 1st February since signal quality is not good as moto g 1st gen... I had rebooted the device... But problems not solved, especially 2 g signal are very week

  • In term of speaker I think honor has slightly better speaker , camera moto has good camera hardware but I feel IPS is not good that's while honor has dual camera setup regarding low light almost same result or minor diff bcoz of hardware and software, video department moto has EIS while honor has no OIS/EIS support , regarding performance 659 vs sd625 mixed results 659 is better in performance while average in Ram management while moto ram management is okay but in gaming 625 performance better than 659 , moto says splash and dust resistant, regarding updates moto has stock ROM bit on 7.0 upgradable to 8.0 while honor has custom rom EMUI on Android 8.0 moto will get slightly quick updates

  • Costco has these "unlocked" for $179. good deal?

  • from where is it a good buy? they have not yet released oreo updates (even though it is stock android) no special feature (except moto action which are useless) no led notification no compass with 3gb ram it costed Rs 15000...too costly its flash light is yellowish power button is weak Moto is a piece of garbage

  • Camera sucks after each update.

  • This is a great budget phone. Good performance, battery life is good. Doesn't lag or hang (so far) but the camera is disappointing. Phones that cost less than Moto G5 Plus have a better camera. Otherwise it's a good buy.

  • So do u think the Honor 9 Lite's camera is better than the G5 Pus?

  • Performance is good, battery life is good, but horrible camera. I can't take one shot that looks just a bit decent. _______ (insert a name of a recent phone from any price range) makes better pictures.

  • Makes terrible pictures. A $15 toy camera makes better pictures.

  • does it supports jio volte

  • I don't have any of your problems... sounds like yours is seriously defective and you are just unlucky.

  • This phone is shit! Simple as that. It freezes a lot on me and it automatically restarts when it freezes. Also I have found that quite often people when calling them can't hear me. I have to use speaker phone quite few times though so that they could hear me. This phone is the worst Moto G phone I've owned. Definitely Avoid at all costs!

  • The Honor 9 Lite phone in the UK have been having really great reviews for just GBP199. But in that same price segment you got this older but still great Moto G5 Plus. Between these two (in terms of speaker quality, overall camera warmtness/colour/saturation/detail/low-light), performance (especially multitasking, app loading & RAM management), being "friendly" with light splash of water or rain, sunlight legibility and updates which would you guys choose?

  • Charge ur phone on blue Moto screen press and hold power key to reboot or shut down phone and try to boot via recovery if these doesn't work then via recovery hard reset might be software issue

  • Moto g5 plus camera quality getting poor day after day.

  • Use Motorola charger and try to calibrate your battery if still doesn't work then try a hard reset and calibrate.. Hope that helps

  • I'm having issues with mine since the update. After 17 minutes precise, the phone either shuts down, PR reboots, locking to the Moto blue screen. I've been trying to get tech support, and can't get through long enough before 17 minutes passes.

  • Good Mobile.. but mine is 9 months used..now it is showing wrong battery calibration

  • Hey was that update stable ?

  • Nothing

  • Is there any new features for this updation?

  • Just recieved January security in India size 51.3 mb disappointed . Still no oreo

  • s6 has gotten pretty slow after 6.0 marshmallow update and battery life is trash. Whereas the Moto G5 plus has none of these issues and has a promised update to Android 8.0 Oreo in the near future :)

  • moto g5 plus or galaxy s6 which is better in 2018?

  • what is loudspeaker voice in dB. does this have good quality for taling.

  • There is already Oreo, and many other custom 32bit-64bit ROMs for this device and tons of development support. Visit xda, create an account, and begin contributing to the foss projects you like most

  • Moto g5 plus update security patch January 2018 bug fix and software improvement

  • This phone is snappy,blows away anything you throw at it.extreemly impresses,good value for money

  • I purchased it online. Problem is that while charging it sounds. Sound is very irritating.

  • Motorola just rollout oreo in Australia and New Zealand, maybe 2-3 months more for global release

  • Yes it support OTG

  • 1 November 2017 security update just arrived in Japan. When can we expect to receive Android Oreo in the United States and Japan?

  • This device OTG support or not?

  • Im using Motorola Moto g5 plus I'm very happy for very good performance,like snappy,internal memory expansion up to 128GB,very good camera performance every situation,good battery life, turbo charging, stanning design,slim body,trustable very good network quality.

  • Really I'm using Motorola Moto g5 plus is really good camera also super good high quality support network every where ,turbo charging so fast working ,work only if you have approximate 20 percent battery then work .

  • If you want to good battery life also with fast charging, very good camera, internal memory expansion up to 128GB , super good network quality, so fast performance than buy Moto g5 plus I'm also using . One more please update also on about phone software update available for improvement . Must update.

  • Don't buy from the seller selling at such low price. This are returned phones they are just repackaging. Many complaints with the phone. Check the seller's review. This is just my observation. Do reply if you have any issues with your phone.

  • I choose this to buy.......can I go for it?

  • Initially Moto was all good . But after 15 days approx it's camera started giving foul images. I had some pics from inital days and now and they are not comparable . Now images are fainted nd the Pixel quality got poorer Then i visited costumer care ..they wouldn't listen me at all... And what the said Isse aisi hi pics aati h (it can click only these quality pics).

  • Tell them U r going to file a complaint in consumer forum then they will take it seriously

  • Regarding specs both are almost same honor has glass back and 18:9 display while g5 plus has durable metallic back and stock ROM regarding cameras g5 plus has better low light performance and honor has quad camera better for portrait photography etc

  • My Moto g5 plus is having screen issues started from first month, still being worked by Moto service and support team. Guys, my opinion, poor product with poor design and extremely poor customer service. Be careful as their service persons may call you and threatens you of consequences. Take care guys.

  • This Moto G5 plus is better than Xiaomi Note 4.

  • In 2020

  • When will moto g5 plus get oreo update!!!!!

  • which phone is best ? moto g5 plus or honor 9 lite , plz tell me friends

  • It is available in flipkart @ 10999 now....ive already ordered

  • Lenevo will send an update in 2050 for moto g5 plus.

  • good

  • on souq.com egypt

  • dude if youre buying the phone mainly for the camera id say j7, if you buy a cheap motorola like this one you cant expect a good camera even if it says 12mp, also you could get a refurbished iphone 6s for no more then like 250 usd and honestly its well worth it if what you mainly want is a good camera

  • In a time where they are supposed to be pushing the oreo 8.0 update for this phone, I got the november security update(2017) today, hmmmm nice work motolenovo!

  • For build quality choose btw durability (moto g5 plus) or stylish (honor) , regarding camera if u take lot of selfies and portrait mode than honor , g5 plus has better low light performance and also in video honor is restricted to FHD no EIS while moto g5 plus support 4K and EIS support for FHD@30fps.

  • Its available in flipkart now for INR 10999, which is approx equal to $165

  • Hello, someone help out. I'm really confused whether to buy moto g5 plus or Honor 9 lite. I even ordered and I cancelled while they came to deliver Honor lite 9 because i read that g5 plus has a better cam. Please tell me which one has better cam? And I'm really afraid of the 9lite's glass body as it might shatter on a drop.

  • Where did you find that deal?

  • Moto g5 plus has a best sim tray u would wish to have like it in every phone, yes u can use two sim card and a micro SD card same time

  • i got the 3GB/32GB version a week ago for $165, and it was the perfect deal, perfect mobile that can compete with higher price mobiles like the oneplus 3t, the most i like about this phone is the stock android experience that make it snappy and is as fast as flagships when doing daily tasks like facebook, mail etc... *by the ways when doing daily tasks i found it snappier than my friend's galaxy s8 ;)

  • Battery duration has reduced after 1 year of usage.

  • Yes!!

  • yes, work with two sim and memory card together

  • Can be insert two sim and memory card at the same time.. is it possible in Moto g5 plus ??

  • This moto is much better

  • Moto g5 plus is better

  • which is better btw motog5plus or oppoa71

  • Thank you Rohit, it's a software issue fixed from service centre

  • Moto g5 plus is still a good affordable phone, it will last for 2 years easily, 1.great daylight camera, 2.good and bright screen, 3.good Ram Management, 4. good wide angle camera, 5. fast charging, 6. SD 625 soc 7. Splash and dirt resistance its having all the mid range requirements, Only com i found in the phone are 1. Those bezels 😐 2. Heats a bit while intense usage 3. No compass/Magento sensor 4. Plastic build You can go for it, after recent price drop, its even cheaper,

  • According to rumours it should come in mid or end of Feb, but it depends on the Oreo soak test on g5 plus

  • Go for a replacement or try a hard reset might be software bug

  • When will moto g5 plus get android 8.0 oreo uodate

  • Manually When HDR is ON then Flash is not supported. When HDR is Auto/off then flash is supporting. Not able to take photos/videos with flash ON & HDR ON at night. When we take photos/videos with flash ON at night dark, the photos/videos are filling with blue colour.. not viewing the clear image picture. I compared with the Redmi 2 prime mobile with flash ON in dark night, the images taken with this camera is soo crisp, clear and natural. Can anybody experienced the same issue with filling the blue colour in images /videos during low light with flash ON?

  • Sir motog5 plus h problem with slot 1 with Jio sim. With Jio sim not call and message with jio sim.

  • That's alright bro. I think I agree wit most of what you said. And based on the comments here and the reviews out there the Moto G5 Plus still remains the best affordable all-around phone out there. I'm also interested with the G5S and the G5 Plus but that's threading outside my budget.

  • Well bro i only need to say dont buy the lenovo p2, i have one and the display was terible, the phone looks solid but the display crash to easy (with or without protection, check some videos in youtube), but if you dont have problem with this go for the moto, why? G5 plus -better camera -normal loud -good loading -Newer Android Version just 7.0 to 8.0, you can wait for the g5 plus S/special -normal battery -normal performance ram P2 -excellent battery -a lot fo ram and performance -normal photos -android (i dont know my phone broken in the second day jaja) sorry for my basic level of the language

  • Between the Lenovo P2 and Moto G5 Plus which one has a newer Android version (Nougat 7.1.1 or Oreo 8.0)? Louder speaker in general? Better camera (speedy to load up, natural looking photo and great low-light photos)? Better multitasking/app loading and RAM managament?

  • For better low light camera performance in mid range g5 plus is better, if not is not important than u can buy latest devices like mi a1 and others

  • Screen is almost same, OS is well optimized by Huawei

  • Screen size also matter...here stock android there emui 5 ..all aspects..are diff..

  • Is it worth to buy moto g5 plus mobile in 2018? is it not too old now?

  • First capacity diff 3000 vs 3340mah , HiSilicon Kirin soc is huawei own custom made soc and well optimized with Huawei which is good for battery and performance and snapdragon make socs for other phone manufacturers so that's another reason also it depends on usage and battery health etc

  • I m using moto g5 plus around 8 months.nd screen on time only 5 hours.. and my other hand honor 6x using around 11 months..screen on time 7 hours... Some gadget guru says snapdragon 625 is good battery where is that...??? I had hard reset my moto g5 plus..so say what is going on??

  • You should opt for Moto G5 Plus as It runs Stock android so the performance and RAM management will be a lot better than MIUI.

  • It would be nice to take nokia 6 2018

  • screen quality is good for 9K go for it for 10K

  • Iam planning to buy moto g5plus at 10k on flipkart is it a good deal.. ?hws the screen quality as comp to mid rangers like redmi note 4 etc.. should i go ahead ?

  • is the bootloader unlocked? or not

  • As soon as they sucessfully complete soak test for moto g5 plus , and now Moto is under Lenovo so don't expect quick updates

  • When when when when when when will oreo come?

  • Ok I will try

  • Firstly I would drain the battery completely. Then recharge to a 100% before any use at all. It should calibrate the battery. If No success. Backup contacts/pictures eg.. Factory reset. Restart from scratch, as if It was new. Only import pictures and contacts eg. A safety backup most likely has the error too. If the error persists it probably is a hardware problem. Most likely a bad battery. It happens. I've had LGs that suddenly crashed. I ended up having one rebuild one time and 2 batteries in less than the first year. Some apps can test if the battery actually works, but forget battery fix apps. They do nothing at best. If the battery is broke. No app can fix it. I have an app that keeps everything tidy. Everything I don't use is scrapped. Important things are on a backup elsewhere. If I don't keep things tidy, the performance drops quickly. I use an app, because one just can't overview it all. I normally clean up once a day. It helps a LOT. I've had no problems after doing it regularly. Best Regards.

  • Might be software bug try hard reset and calibrate your battery.

  • After updating november security patch battery drain fastly.. screen on time only just 3 hours and 40 min..

  • Try a hard reset

  • Laser autofocus is better takes less than a sec to focus sadly it is not present in Moto g5/g5s plus . Regarding camera tech bigger sensor size , bigger aperture (f1.6/f1.7 is better than f2.0 or f2.2) dual pixel is something Samsung S7 has , etc plus good Image processing system gives better results ,, there are many other factors regarding camera tech but Im not that much in cameras

  • I think I would have to agree with you here. But for once If we were to be technical about the camera...Am i correct in saying a smaller micron pixel, dual pixel and smaller aperture mean a camera is better "overall" in speed/performance & low light? Is PDAF feature sufficient enough in daily photos whereas laser autofocus is good for faster moving objects & faster shots in general?

  • Hello, I've just received the November security patch on my Moto G5 Plus in India. Has anyone elsewhere also received it? After installing it, my battery drains from 100% to 40-50% within a minute or two. However, it happens only when wifi is on. When I switch the wifi off and use data, the battery performs just fine. Is anyone else facing the same issue? I read online that November security patch gave such problems on other phones as well but couldn't find any solutions. Considering Moto (Lenovo) doesn't provide security updates regularly, what can be done? Thanks

  • Moto g5 plus has some sharpness and natural looking colour , good image unless u zoom in, G5s plus colour balance is fine and depth mode/ Portrait mode , overall g5 plus leads

  • Ok. But would you say "generally speaking" is the G5S Plus tend to be more "muted" or natural looking or too contrasty? Cooler tones? Or is the G5 Plus more the "all-rounder" sharp/natural-looking, warmer tones type of phone? Are these assessment true in many ways?

  • Hey what issues are you having with the g5 plus? My screen goes white and looks like it's the LCD. Lines go up and down and when I scroll the screen jumps

  • I agree with you low light performance is better on g5 plus, on comparison I like photos taken with g5s plus as compared to g5 plus but in some scenarios g5 plus lead like low light, sharpness etc (that's why I said comes to personal preference) regarding selfies I still like g5s plus camera, g5 plus has screenflash but it doesn't work for me, If I have to choose one I will choose G5 plus for sure if moto adds portrait mode option in oreo. Regarding x4 I haven't use yet so can't say anything

  • Between the G5 Plus and the newer X4 which in theory (and practice) deliver a more true to life/natural looking photos, faster autofocus, faster shutter speeds, less over exposure, more resolved detail, bit warmer (not cooler) and better low light capability?

  • The G5 Plus has dual pixels (i'm not sure about your assessment of having a "single" sensor) and a lower aperture which roughly translates to better low light photos and faster autofocus. A newer phone doesn't necessarily mean better everything. I heard the camera on the G5S Plus is a lot warmer but to the point its somewhat unnatural contrast colours. Front selfie flash also doesn't mean better selfie photos in low light. The G5 Plus has screen flash which may also help isn't it. And besides the G5 Plus' camera software seem more optimized perhaps because it's older but has more updates(?). So, I ask again..if we are to look for better hardware & software optimizations, in terms of overall sharpness, clarity, natural-looking, low light performance, faster autofocus, image stabilization at 1080p 30fps (forget about 4K as not everyone has 4K TV anyway), less purple/yellow fringing, etc. which one is better?

  • Moto G5 Plus has single sensor basically it will perform better in low lighting while G5s plus has dual sensor better image quality and portrait mode and I think both of them has EIS support in video, regarding photos it comes to personal preference (warmer/cool)etc selfies g5s plus is better 8mp with front flash , Go for moto g5s plus for better camera performance and for low lighting photos go for g5 plus , rest if gyroscope sensor is not important for you then have a look at honor 9i camera

  • I've been looking at Youtube videos like a madman comparing the Moto G5 Plus with the newer Moto G5S Plus. Is it true that the older Moto G5 Plus takes warmer photos, less overexposed background, better selfies and somewhat better stabilization due to differing hardware from the newer one and a more optimized software? New doesn't mean better am i right?

  • Yes it is VOLTE enabled out of the box

  • Dual nano sized

  • Yep I guess it is it dose show LTE on the screen

  • this phone is volte?

  • What size SIM does it use?

  • No man..no clue..still facing the same issues.. please let me know if u get to know any Solution

  • Lenevo is slower than snail.

  • I haven't use A5 but on paper specs are good , I think the only con is delay updates as it has Samsung custom skin and mid rangers don't get updates fast rest is ok

  • What about galaxy a5

  • Mi A1 - quick updates , stock rom , better gaming Honor 9i - bigger display ,better camera and battery , delay updates , no gyro For better user experience mi a1 is better for camera and bigger display honor 9i is better

  • Which is better between mr a1 & honor 9i?

  • Yeah then stick with MI phones takes hrs to charge turbocharger is not rocket science its just fast charging like Qualcomm quick charge almost 90% of devices comes with quick charge support it doesn't damage battery and regarding camera yeah its struggle in low light but still better than others camera

  • Yes its just November security update

  • Any timeframe for Oreo update

  • New update is showing anyone who updated

  • I never recommend this handset to others .Turbo charging cause battery failure problems and its camera clarity is almost poor than any other handset

  • Try a hard reset and calibrate your battery if still facing problem then go to internet and try to flash the whole OS again or take ur phone to service center and ask them to flash OS again and if still facing issue then its hardware issue

  • Hey bro i have same problem....did u fix it

  • U don't get Android 7.1 update U will direct update to 8.0.

  • ✍️,New update available for Most Moto G 5 Plus (November Security update).

  • guys, any idea when this phone will receive the android 8.0 oreo update?? Is there like a certain time or month that the update will start rolling out? my phone is still sitting at android 7.0 and no 7.1 update yet :((

  • Purchased this phone from Amazon less than 30 days ago. Phone worked fine til yesterday when I no longer received cell service. Contracted Motorola, who has the WORST customer service btw, and they finally sent me a link that stated that since the phone was purchased less than 30 days ago to contact Amazon. Amazon would only refund and not supply another one. I guess I should be thankful that I didn't get another one! I don't know why this phone is getting such good reviews.

  • The same prblm i am facing too... But my phone is not restarting... But rest all the issue are same with me.. did u got any idea to fix it..?

  • Why????

  • Very pathetic phone model of Motorola... Plz don't purchase

  • thanks for this, just what i wanted to hear. as for now im looking any dealer near my area hoping there is one.

  • worst camera phone ever ..u cant zoom image they get distorted....dont buy this phone for camera...

  • This seems to be a problem with Android not keeping contacts that have a Google+ profile associated with it. I removed the Google+ Profile field from the contacts, and they synced seamlessly. (I would guess it's a deeper problem than that, however, because some of my contacts could not be synchronized that had no associated Google profile but all had associated websites...) In any case, this is a very non-technical problem to say: I don't think this is a phone issue.

  • I have purchased this phone 3 months back. The only major issue is vanishing contacts everyday. Given to Moto service centre & formated. Still the issue is same - Vanishing contacts even we saved in gmail

  • Yeah there is option to use fingerprint scanner gestures for navigation and battery is good thanks to stock rom and sd625 ir can last for a full working day normal sot 6+hrs / heavy usage sot 4-4:30 hrs (depending on usage and network conditions) , built is metallic and GG3 apply temper glass and case for protection device is bit slippery

  • is there a way to remove the on screen navigation? i really dont like having that on screen. also how is battery life of this phone? normal daily usage and heavy gaming? durability when drop or something?

  • Which color is you are using? And which color nice looking?

  • yes

  • is supported fast charging?

  • Some apps eating your battery life... search it and uninstall or disable it...

  • Try a hard reset and calibrate your battery, hope that helps

  • I bought this phone 7 months back..It had been working fine until last 2 weeks. Battery is draining very quickly. Phone is getting heated fast and phone is getting restarted on its own at times. Any idea about these issues?

  • First of all I have choosed this phone after alot of reviews every where and compared with many phones and every time it had overwhelming winning The phone is so awesome The good : *Very fast , *camera is crisp and has big aperture at daylight *speaker is loud and clear , *performance is very high and big ram *Screen is so nice and perfectly colored *the battery is very good last for whole day and you can recharge suitable piece of it within one hour thanks to turbo charging feature * It has stock android without bugs or lags and receiving updates frequently and updated to oreo * Moto motions is very smart The bad : It has no notification led No sound for charging Camera nor good at light condition But i have used to this not that bad Over all the best phone now for me and Iove it

  • One of the phone I purchased and got disappointed...due to poor contact management and message management.God Bless Motorola team.Today is my last day of my phone since I purchased on September 2017.

  • Fast processor, fingerprint scanner , metal design, Better camera and battery better screen quality etc , in this range Honor 6x,7x,9i , moto g5s plus , MI A1 are good options

  • How is it an upgrade from Moto G turbo edition? what are other options in this range??

  • Awesome camera and specs for a budget phone, I love it!

  • Yes, its a bit slippery use a case for better grip

  • Is it a slippery phone, what do you think???

  • First try a diff charger, if ur charger is qorking fine then hard reset ur device and try to calibrate battery and if still doesn't work then its hardware issue.

  • Im having battery issue.The phone heats up very much and drains battery in a snap. Fast charging is not working either (takes about 3hrs tocharge).But when the phone is switched off heat goes down and fast charging is back. Is this a software isuue or hardware.does resetting help??(I really don't want to)

  • i am facing GSM network connectivity issue in this phone however if i restart this phone than this issue got resolved.

  • Yes. And that is why I asked how he has the 8.0. Some beta tester can have it, if they have it on g5+ but not anybody else. They said the best case scenario is maybe around February. Ifi I am right.

  • The fruit of patience is sweet

  • Don't worry oreo is not out for g5 plus yet but it will get update maybe in next 2-3 months

  • Yeah right , g5 plus has better specs while e4 plus is stuck with mtk quad core soc and maybe e4 plus stuck @7.1 but g5 plus will get oreo soon

  • Mine is still 7.0 so who is your provider? Or how did you get the new 8.0? I think they said they don't know when they will have it ready either, I mean from moto side.

  • My g5 plus has 8.0 already

  • moto e4 plus has been updated to 7.1.1 but moto g5 plus is still on 7.0

  • For 4K I think Samsung evo plus 95/100mbps sd card is fine, don't know if device supports higher class sd card or not.

  • And for taking 4k videos, would you use the internal memory of moto g5 plus, or use the external micro sd card storage? Cuz burst mode, etc needs a very good speedy card. And do not want to have any problem with the slower sd card while doing it. But the internal memory is limited to do long 4k videos etc, plus I wouldn't want to move the taken video every time to sd card after I used the internal to take 4k video. That would be why I did think I would do the sd card as internal. But I see your point.

  • I wouldn't suggest u to use sd card as internal storage, use sd card as portable storage for media content etc .I had tried 3 sd cards (sandisk 48/80mbps+Samsung evo 95mbps) everytime I got error message sd card is slow, u can get some fast sd cards but maybe they don't support these devices.

  • Update/PS: The Micro SD Cards speed are MB/s all.

  • Hi, I have the Moto G5 Plus Usa version 4 GB Ram, 64 GB Internal Memory. I would have two question. Could you guys help me with that. Thx. I would like to get a new Micro Sd Card at least 128 GB and Add to my phone as ADDITIONAL INTERNAL MEMORY and Take 4k Movies. Or use Apps from it. So... Nr 1 question: What would be the fastest speed from my phone end, what my phone could use to WRITE AND READ THE MICRO SD CARD as internal memory? Nr 2 question: Which Micro Sd Card is really capable of doing that speed in real life and not holding my phone speed back? And make the 4k videos also. Because as additional internal memory if u don't have the fastest speed u get an error message when the phone would test the card (format) and it is not hitting that speed what it would need to. It can be automatic also, but still. So It would be nice to know, which is the fastest speed, what my moto G5 plus would need from the micro sd card, to match with that speed. I know at least U3 v30 A1 mark would I need to do 4k. But what is the top speed of being the best as additional internal memory? A lot of cards say they do like 100 Mb/s Read and 90 MB/s Write speed, but in real life, or real usage it is only 40 Mb/s Read and 30 Mb/s Write speed. Like Samsung Evo Select. When they suppose to do it as 100 Mb/s and 90 Mb/s. So I just wanna find a memory card which would be a good internal memory for the phone, and would not hold back the phone speed. When i do 4k or using an installed app from it or anything else. Thx again..

  • U can use 2 sim plus sd card.

  • Moto G5 Plus have a big problem with not being able to keep a stable wifi-connection!

  • On G5+ you do not need to press any button to turn the screen off, just touch the fingerprint sensor, I can not find that option on every other Android phone!

  • Install Nova Launcher or any other launcher from Google Play and you can do far more customizations than those you want to do! The US versions, and some in Sweden, have a compass, and 3 gb ram!

  • You only need to move G5+ and the screen lights up showing notifications..., and you only need to touch the fingerprint scanner, not press any button at all, to unlock G5+!

  • lenevo is very slow in updates

  • ok,, just sayin....................LG is a much more thoughtful company. I just realized that to wake up and sleep my Moto G5 I have to button press. Now that is ok but on my old LG K10 and I think all LG's you can just doubletap the screen to go off or on,,, it's fast, immediate and you can do it while it is lying flat without even picking it up....... this is just a simple easy and best way / I mean, how many times a day do you just want to check notifications..... this constant button pressing is a hassle once having become used to the doubletap..... Lenovo should RETHINK it's ease of use.......I once swore by Motorola,, best built, sturdy and easy... but now... well... I am rethinking my choice !!

  • I have discovered two more additional surprises which are annoyances, no 3......arrgh!!!! Cast; Unless you have Chromecast you Cannot cast screen. Reboot; Nope! It's OFF or Nothing / Only Power Off Screenshot; one way only and it takes Both hands. Press Volume down & Power till you hear the snap sound. These aren't dealbreakers - still LG does all these without a hiccup. You could never know all this without owning and using the phone for a few days AND having spent many hours setting it up. By then it's too late to return it.....(if you wanted to) I feel like I was fooled by Motorola / Lenovo. I honestly feel LG is more intuitive and user friendly.

  • Have a look @ moto g5s plus , honor 7x , honor 9i, mi A1 all these devices comes with dual rear camera and performance is good too

  • Build Quality: Phone is sturdy and feels solid in hand. Size is good and the width fits comfortably in hand for use with mostly one hand. The finishing and detail is very good. Screen: Yes, it is the best looking screen I have ever had. This screen is and Up for me in resoluton and it shows. A pleasure to look at. Camera: first impression is that it is Very Good. Better than my old Moto G and Much Better than my old LG K10. The G5+ is fast and smooth / no lags anywhere..... very satisifying.... I would recommend it but for me I do have some annoyances: You cannot modify the grid spacing on the screens / it is 4 across No Matter What. I happen to like five and the four across gives you Big Icons and I feel like I have either a visual handicap or that it is like a kids toy. Really, this should be have customization choices. Next: On the home screen you have a google search bar across the top and it is four wide. That's it,,, no choice here,, you cannot move it, narrow it, delete it or change it in any way at all. But, I think,,,, IT IS MY PHONE - NOT GOOGLES. I BOUGHT IT, PAID FOR IT AND OWN IT. Still,, no changing here.... The screen is Bright and that wide white bar SCREAMS at me and I become upset that no one at Motorola \ Lenovo thought about my Experience with this phone. This feature should be customisable. I know now that LG is much more user friendly and very customisable all the way around compared to Motorola. A possible choice for an alternative had I known about these two above drawbacks would have been the LG Q6. The exception is that the processor in it is old and slow......BUT the LG has a Compass and really,,, THIS MOTOROLA SHOULD HAVE A COMPASS TOO. THIS IS ANOTHER DISAPPOINTMENT. My G5+ has 2 gb ram and I thought that it had 3. I found out after I bought it and this set me back. The LG G6 has 3 so that is a benefit..... Overall, I like this phone and I want to be fair... I can live without a compass and with 2 gb of ram but had I known this beforehand I would have kept shopping before making my final decision....

  • I want to purchase one mobile with in the range 15000-18000 which one is better please let me in foam

  • Thank you

  • The G5 plus/G5s plus sold in India doesn't have compass sensor

  • I wouldn't call Lenovo P2 a budget phone at all. The only conns of P2 are its age and its boring design.

  • No, maps and navigation works fine

  • This doesn't have compass sensor. Does that really effects the maps usage?

  • This phone is worst time waste

  • This fingerprint scanner doesn't work properly if ur finger is wet or scanner has some dust on it, set up fingerprints again

  • Thank you for advice. I think moto g5 plus is better then sony xperia r1 plus. Sony r1 plus is 1k more than g5 plus.

  • Anybody facing issue with fingerprint sensor.. My sensor sometimes not working properly, then i press little bit hardly, then it work

  • I've had mine g5 plus for six months, and I love it. It's as fast as my s7 for half the price. Only thing I don't love is no hard buttons, just digital but I understand how that would happen in they had to do cutbacks somewhere for a price like this. My opinion its the best phone for the price you can get

  • I feel very comfortable with my device, no problems at all so far after using it for the last 5 months, great pictures and browsing speed, processor manages multiple app simultaneously whit no hassle

  • Very bad service after sale. Motorola cheat their customers. My phone was under warranty. But they are cheating me that its liquid damage. They told me that u have to change motherboard and pay 14320 for motherboard . And the cost of the new phone is 14000.. Is it possible?? the price of the motherboard hi high than the price of new phone. Plz don't fool your customers moto..

  • Hello I just wan't to ask a question if this phone is available in the philippines and if I buy a model from another country would it still work if I bought it here? thank you in advance and sorry if my grammar is wrong

  • Sony R1 plus has old hardware 720p screen, 430 soc, old hardware in new phone while G5 plus has 1080p screen , 625 soc etc invest more and go for moto g5s plus

  • Moto g5 plus or sony xperia r1 plus. I want to purchase please tell me which one is better?? Please give your opinion.

  • I'm hearing this issue for the first time in my life , Moto G5 doesn't come with AI system nor its software is design to take revenge , phone can't merge contact on its own unless someone is saving them to resolve open ur google contact and merge contact of same name/number

  • G5 has sd 625 soc and stock rom helps 3000mah battery to last for a full working day ie u can get sot of 6-8 hrs depending on usage and network connection but battery is ur priority then go for lenovo p2 5100mah+ super amoled display use black wallpaper on that it will save some more power. Moreover if u r planning to stick with ur phone all the time then u have to charge 5100mah battery twice a day, also buy a powerbank for the same hope that helps

  • I m useing all kind of phones but One of the worst phone is MOTO G5 I never seen in this type of phone. moto g5 plus contacts getting merge with other contacts and showing the wrong name. sometime it shows someone name else with someone else contact number. Basically we use for calls so main problem is contacts.. waste and worst phone..

  • Battery life is my main concern. The battery here is 3000 which is just average, right? I saw other budget phones with better batteries like the old Lenovo P2 which has 5100 or the new Lenovo K8 which is 4000.

  • Does T flash sd cards work with this phone?

  • You could check the Huawei P10 Lite, Nokia 6, Galaxy A5 (2017) and tad bigger you can find the Xiaomi Mi A1, Xperia XA1 Plus and Lenovo P2.

  • This smartphone is almost perfect (at his price). Only con is multitasking, almost every time you switch to background running apps, the app reloads. Camera is good, speaker is good, battery life is good, charge speed is good, usage speed is good. I always regret in one thing or other when I buy a new phone, this time i didnt.

  • Design comes to personal preference like in my case I choose this phone over many devices like zuk z2 plus, honor 6x, RN4 etc bcoz of design and durability, regarding some other devices Moto G5s plus has big display, dual camera setup, 64gb storage and same processor as compared to g5 plus, MIA1 , Honor 9i etc and soon Moto x4 will launch with dual camera setup , if camera quality is ur priority then go for moto g5s plus it also has EIS , haven't use honor 9i so can't say about camera , check on internet and compare the difference. Hope that helps

  • Does this phone have any competitors? If there is any what are their advantages over this phone.The reason why I want this phone is because of the picture and video quality,the processor and the budget pricing of this phone and my only real problem with this is the design of the phone which is meh. can any one suggest me a phone that checks my criteria?

  • Don't worry about SAR value its under control each and every phone out there has SAR under control.

  • what is the SAR rediations value of this mobile ??

  • With Moto g5 plus u can record videos 1080@30fps with EIS and (1080@60fps and 4K doesn't support EIS) but g5 plus has some problem with audio while recording it has a bit disturbence last OTA solved it but not fully solved as of now also while launching camera app it has some error issues like it will open 3/5 times Motorola says cera is fine app has some error it will fix in Oreo update hope that helps . If camera is your highest priority then also have a look @ honor 6x , moto g5s plus, Mi A1, honor 9i these devices has dual camera setup rest u can research on net for better results.

  • thank you for your response right now I am leaning towards the honor 7x :D but one last question, In terms of video quality who wins? the moto or the honor 7x.As through my research I found out that honor 7x has the same eis problems with huawei mate 10 lite. and once again sorry for my english :D

  • Its upto your priorities if u want better camera, big screen then go for honor or if u want stock rom , dual sim+ sd card facilities then moto g5 plus , go for honor it has that dual camera setup and big screen , also have a look at moto g5s plus it also has that dual camera setup

  • please answer me immediately as my mom will buy me a phone soon and sorry for my bad english. anyways should I buy this phone or the honor 7x? please state your reasons :D

  • Go for moto g5s plus it has dual camera setup u can get some good photos and regarding connectivity apps u can download them from play store.

  • Motorola Moto G5s Plus or Huawei P8 Lite , to buy. I I like being a good camera and they can have a couple of applications for connectivity with others (viber ...)I want you to help me choose

  • Out by end of Dec. 2017 from what I know of.

  • Great phone!! Don't listen to whiners.

  • Yes g5s plus has hybrid slot but 64 gb is enough for normal users ,but u get 32gb on g5 plus which is kind of very limited .

  • Bt u cant use 2sim +sd card together

  • Moto g5 plus led notification no functional please Lenovo fix the problem

  • Please Motorola update my moto g5 plus because is very slow in last update

  • Moto G5S Plus does have a Notification LED Light? anyone tell me clearly.

  • I got the phone delivered yesterday.. headphone is not connecting with my phone... Whats the solution for this.. should i replace the same with another phone?

  • I'm not facing this issue as of now I'm wondering why this issue came after security update

  • Not fixed with reboot...did u tried rest...Does it works???

  • Go to settings sim cards and scroll down to calls and select jio or always ask if still not working then reinsert sim and reboot

  • Might be software bug try a reboot if still not working then reset

  • Yes..and android oreo (8.0) will be the last update for moto g5,g5 plus..maybe even for moto g5s and g5s plus. While the oreo update issue for g4 plus,motorola said its their genarel practice for providing 1 major os update for moto g series.. Sadly,before lenovo's acquisition,motorola had provided 2 major os update for moto g series.now only one major os update :(

  • Put jio sim in slot 2.

  • Its Good phone... But has bit of problem... Some proccessor problem.. but camera at good quality. Good phone... Me using this phone from one month.. Good phone for budget

  • Yes same problem with me...after security patch level update charging time is increase.

  • In my g5 plus.I am unable to make calls in sim1 slot by my jio sim... Only showing Lte Network..internet is ok from sim1...I am able to make calls only from sim2 slot....Is this normal? Pls reply me frnds...If u have any information about this....

  • Is g5s plus comes with LTE network

  • After updating to the August security patch.. It takes more time to charge... Before used to get 45% in 30 min... Now only 30%... Anyone with some idea about this problem...!!??

  • Using since launch....best phone ever High hardware performance, Fastest charging, best camera quality and a lot of new features.

  • truly value for money... go for it

  • Very nice phone !!!

  • It won`t. Will jump directly to Oreo instead, in the beginning of 2018.

  • Download forceLTE app from playstore and seleck 4g LTE only ...

  • Go for moto g5s plus bigger screen, better camera u can get some good photos from that dual camera setup, also front flash with 64gb internal memory, g5 plus is a good device too camera can take some good low light photos

  • G5 plus is better than G5s plus. Same price varients but G5 plus have single rear camera with better quality and rest of the features where new phone G5s plus having dual rear cam cant match the build quality of G5 plus. Where Moto has reached the peak of best phones.

  • Which one to buy moto g5 plus or moto g5 s....? Help me guys m really confused...

  • When g5 plus will get 7.1 update

  • Yes g5/g5 plus will get android oreo update maybe g4 plus will get update

  • Please help me my moto g5 plus has some battery issues its stucks at 89 percantage for too much time give me some tricks please

  • Be warned, the OIS, CDAF and LAF on the Zenfone 3 does not work. Go check out the Asus forum, you will see that the Zenfone only takes blurry photos.

  • No bugs. Its just security update with some system stability.

  • No bugs these are just security updates

  • Personally I really like this phone. I came from using LG G series phones for a few years and was really used to the whole 'no buttons on the front or sides' thing, but this really didn't take long to get used to. That fingerprint sensor at the bottom that lets you swipe right and left on to get the phone to do things is awesome. I now hate having any phone real estate taken up with a back button. It is awesome. I really don't have anything to complain about. Well, except for the placement of the power button. I set the power button to disconnect calls, so until I got a case on this phone I found myself hanging up on people accidentally all the time. It's just not in a good place if you don't have a case that smooths out the buttons. Once I got the case on it I didn't accidentally hang up on anybody. Been using it for 6 months now and I love it.

  • any bugs??

  • In Sri lanka this phone and asus zenfone 3 have the same price. zenfone has ois by the way

  • Change ur memory card it should not happen, buy a sandisk/Samsung high speed memory card for better performance or try to format ur memory card via phone and then notice it happens or not

  • Can't say now Lenovo owns Moto maybe moto g5 plus get android P update in future , earlier moto use to give security updates but after lenovo buy moto they stop security updates for moto devices.

  • Amazing Phone. Can kill the other budget phone kings like Xiaomi RN4 and Lenovo Vibe P2. I will buy this phone if I am not getting my brother's HTC 10. Nokia 6 seems tight with Moto G5 Plus but Nokia 6 has a bad chipset...

  • moto g5 plus will get android P (android os version number 9) update in future? As from the recent incidents about updating moto g4 plus to Oreo,I am hesitating to buy moto g5 plus due to android os update issue.

  • my moto g5 plus battery drain very fast .., what should i do ? plz jelp me

  • IS Redmi note 4 good phone???

  • Hi anyone say how can I transfer my storage my old account to the new account at Google drive?? Pls..... Reply anyone.

  • Not sure about your IP problem....not faced this problem. About battery. Not sure if you've taken any action yet? I had terrible battery issues when first using this phone. If you Google battery problems with G5 plus there are several things you can make sure are turned off. Location services, display, amongst others. I also found that making sure that the unused Sim slot isn't turned on. I found when turned it off and took other measures, the battery lasts me getting on for 2 days with moderate use

  • I am using g5 plus for last couple of months. I am having serious issue on getting IP address when connected with wifi. Spoke to Motorola. So far they are not able to give the solution. Secondly it looks like the battery is draining out rapidly. If I have to change the battery, I have to take it to Moto service center. I do have Samsung Galaxy s4 which is 4 years old. Never had any problem.

  • Whenever I took photos, they show REDEYES. How can I rectify from my camera setting so that it doesn't show again. Regards

  • Go for moto g5s plus has dual camera setup , 5.5 screen , 4GB 64GB , sd 625 etc or Xiaomi android one phone

  • I brought it today camera is toooo bad Secondary front camera is very bad its not so impressive why is it??

  • I want to buy a phone which one is the best phone. my requirement is snapdragon 625 with 3 or 4 GB ram and 2.0 GHz processor. 5.0 to 5.5 inch display and best quality in camera. Please suggest best phone.

  • 2.8 in 3gb ram

  • awsome phone in this price by moto

  • Its not a volte

  • How long will for complete charging???

  • I bought this phone three months Soo farm no issues it working nicely so far ....I really like it's turbo charging it saves lots of time

  • if u have so many problems pls dump the phone in a dustbin

  • If possible do get the phone replaced, my phone stopped charging and would heat up a lot even when charged for 15 minutes. Bought it from Amazon, so replaced.

  • Almost all phones that supports fast charging heats while charging its not something like con or try charging with a normal 5V-1-1.5 amp charger

  • It should take max 2 hours from 0-100 try to charge in cool temp room / ac room it will charge faster

  • My g5+ takes 2.5 hours time to charge 0-100℅ . Is this really a turbo charge phone? Otherwise it is awsome phone, battrey backup is also good. 👌👌

  • Best balanced phone in any segment hand best camera performance in any lighting any weather condition but only the con is it heats up when charging

  • I hated this phone very bad design and very bad loud speaker from my Nokia 6.

  • till now not any update 7.1.2 and no security update till now only march 2017.i thought i change the phone and buy xiomi mi 1

  • Your phone bought in India (XT1685) does not have same LTE data bands as USA version (XT1687). I had same problem, but kind of in reverse trying to use a USA phone in China. LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 13(700), 17(700), 25(1900), 26(850), 38(2600), 41(2500), 66(1700/2100) - XT1687 (USA) LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 19(800), 20(800), 28(700), 38(2600), 40(2300), 41(2500) - XT1684, XT1685

  • have compass or not

  • I had bought a dual SIM Moto G5 Plus in India two months back. When I moved to the US last month, I got a 4G T Mobile SIM which I use along with my Indian Airtel SIM. While voice works fine, the data speed is very bad. Forget 4G, most of the time I get a G or an Edge connection. The US T Mobile guys say the reason could be a frequency issue. The same T Mobile SIM when inserted into my old Galaxy S5 phone which too I bought in India works perfectly. Any thoughts?

  • Hello frnds moto g5 plus jio sim video calling support?

  • Yes it supports VOLTE

  • Is it VOLTE handset?

  • as far as i know in xt1685 you can. i don't know about other versions though.

  • Yes u can use 2 sims + sd card

  • Can we use both sim cards and memory cards together????

  • Love this phone, came off the iphone 6 and this is miles better. Have had it since April and enjoy it more every day and being unlocked and the price just makes it sweeter. Some people say its ugly but I think it looks fine, have it in a thin case so the back design doesn't bother me. Amazing battery life, fast charging, fast processor, lots of memory, overall just a great phone.

  • it's camera app does not have a horizontal feature in camera I wish it could be sorted in Oreo

  • New version in Moto g series 8.0 oreo . Coming soon..Â….

  • I am in love with G5 plus. It's awesome phone. I've Moto G5 plus, 4RAM + 32ROM Pros 1) Awesome Camera 2) good 'wow' features like fingerprint sensor for better security, shake and open flash light & camera (both shaking styles differ) 3) Single key to enter or exit the open window ( similar to iPhone but different though ) 4) mind blowing battery backup 5) Don't get heated under any condition 6) Slowmo mode in camera 7) sound quality is good 8) turbo power charging 9) Never hangs while using Cons 1) headphone not good 2) Lenovo is it's partner and if you're Indian don't buy it since Lenovo Chinese Brand.

  • am faceing Ghost Touch Problem. all Moto handset have the same problem. I already call to customer service but they don't know how to solve this problem

  • My Moto g5 plus actually good but camera, it's little bulky

  • U can navigate/locate better with magnetic sensor/compass sensor

  • Moto G5S plus have smart view option.

  • compass shows on which direction you are facing.... if you open google maps application shows to which direction you are facing ... and Compass is useful in VR

  • What is the use of magnetic compass?

  • Even im using a sim card which about 6-7 yrs old in the slot 2 and it has no issue

  • Maybe he is facing some diff issues and I use my same 3 years old sim card in my first moto g5plus and 5 years old airtel sim in my second g5 plus

  • Yeah maybe u r right , I think its box difference handsets are same

  • It will not accept an year old nano airtel sim as it's thicker than new one ...Visit airtel store and replace it with new one...Me too faced the same problem..

  • They are shipped from india from their chennai hub...even i have the Indian version

  • Snapdragon 625 is based on 14nm architecture which is more efficient while helio p2 is based on 16nm which is comparatively not that efficient...if consider about adreno 506 gpu is more powerful than mali t880 mp2 is not that good.. so i can come to an conclusion that snapdragon are value for money and best at all aspects

  • Even i get the same thing..but a kind off unhappy coz with the launch of g5s plus they have decreased the phone price by 2k i.e 15k and kept the price of g5s plus 16k with better specs than this

  • when will 7.1.1 come

  • So I got mine in April after my old phone literally killed itself, and have had no problems accept 1. So along with my last phone(happened for a different reason), my phone has a slight bend in the top right corner. It so far has in no way affected the phone in any way other than the fact it is noticeable when it is on a flat surface. I believe it is caused by it being in my pocket all day, presumably because it is too small for the phone. I was wondering if it should be something to worry about or if it is just a normal thing. All I know is that it really concerns me, and I don't have the money to gen a new phone.

  • I have buy moto g5 plus from Flipkart its delivery is good. But moto g5plus has very sensitive sim tray which is entruped. When i have gone service centre for removing sim tray they want 2000rs while my device is in warranty.

  • I too ...

  • Around 9 hours on continuous usage..average usage,i got 6+ hours and 1 day 16 hr standby time.happy with it.

  • Moto g5s plus

  • sure G5S Plus if you have some money go to moto z2 force

  • Go for moto g5 plus or new g5s plus

  • a7 2016 or moto g 5 plus

  • A5 2017 or G5 Plus?

  • Noooooooo

  • I have purchased Moto G5 Plus just one month ago, and I am facing a problem on the volume button, its non functional, it automatically goes on 0 volume mode.

  • LPddr 3 ram

  • ram is ddr3 or ddr4?

  • Power button + Low volume button

  • Hello everyone How to take screenshot in moto g5 plus help me

  • Dfixer Mine is a "Made in China" model....never seen one made in India? It is 32GB with a 32GB SD card added which has been formatted s internal storage, now 64GB. This takes great pictures as far as my demands go. Sim slots, has dual Sim, both 4G active (have tested both) After initial worries about battery drain & big battery percentage loss on standby overnight, I had a look on the net about battery saving & found some internal playing around with location settings for Bluetooth, screen brightness settings & a couple of other settings adjustments, I now have a great phone with brilliant battery life.....no issues at all

  • This is how Moto G5 Plus users are supported by vendor:

  • I want to know about the complaints regarding the made in china and india versions which one takes clearer images than the other.what are the models exactly ?the ram and storage where this has been noticed.is it dual sim,single sim,gold or grey colors.can anyone provide in-depth information regarding that.thanks

  • How much screen-on time are you people getting?

  • Over heating issue and speaker not working... On call other person cannot hear your voice. And worst service from Flipkart after deliver the order..

  • MOTO G5 PLUS, 4 GB RAM/32GB, Dual sim. bought mobile but cannot use it

  • Bought Moto G5 plus and replaced once to Amazon. Both time cannot place my AIRTEL sim card tray and insert in the mobile.

  • Now the "oreao" has come out lets see how many phones motorola going to update... Hope g5plus gets an update.

  • I'm not taking it seriously but only sharing an opinion and giving you my response based on what I have read and what my experiences are.

  • haha.. bro I think u r taking this conversation very seriously I was just sharing my exp with both snapdragon and MTK ... maybe u r right but personally I dont like MTK

  • Well, sometimes its just the name. Snapdragon is like Ford or Audi whilst MediaTek is like Mazda or Kia. It's not the name. It's the implementation and optimization in the end. Just note the fiasco of the 810 of the Z3+/Z5.

  • Yes maybe u r right but I feel snapdragon socs are well balanced or well optimized in performance/battery/graphics etc while MTK is only concern about performance and processor cores

  • But an equivalent Snapdragon (439/435) may not match with the performance/battery saving option of the Helio P20 and may even match the 617 or 625 in some respect.

  • Yes there is some problems with camera app I asked moto about this they said its some kind of error and will be fixed in future update

  • Yes rear camera can shot 4K videos

  • Right, go with snapdragon socs mtk is just ok for low/entry level smartphone , for mid range and flagships snapdragon is much better

  • Yes it takes 4k videos.

  • Great phone and very hard to beat for the price.

  • Don't buy this phone... Reason was sometimes camera opens it shows please restart camera. I have software update for 2 times for this complaint.. this complaint s solved only fews days. Tdy it's showing regular ly ... Other features are best...

  • I knew it. Perhaps it is safer to get the more newer SoCs (MediaTek P10/P20, Snapdragon 430/435, 617/625/630) ones.

  • sir this phone camer 4k?

  • I received my second moto g5 plus from Flipkart couple of days ago that too was made in china box I don't know where the hell people are getting this made in India box

  • I have also got China unit and seen that it does not take clear images in indoor condition .and one of my friend got Indian unit and his camera is better than my China one idont know what's wrong with lenavo

  • You may got a defective one. Battery in my phone lasts for TWO DAYS (Yes!), full time connected to net, watching videos, checking messages, etc etc (but not playing games).

  • Working fine.

  • Speaker volume is also low.

  • No not yet but it should get android O update

  • Yes it works well with gps and mobile data

  • Yeah one of my friend has s x play and heats like hell ,

  • Wanted to get the old X Play but with an older chipset et.c I fear it may not be updated to Nougat 7.1.1 let alone Android 0. Same with the Z3.

  • Does GOOGLE MAPS work well in this phone, because I have read that this phone does not have COMPASS in Indian models.

  • Camera is not goodat all on g5 compare to g3. Speaker volume is also low.

  • Is there any software update after npn 25.137.67

  • Soc is same sd625 p2 has big display and battery while moto has stock rom and good camera

  • Yeah bro then u better go for some water resistant devices as ur past exp in not good with moto/water , my last moto device was moto g2 couples of years ago it was fine with medium rains and splashes , minor couple of drops in water

  • Moto G5 Plus or Lenovo P2?

  • As of today I have already lost two(!) Moto G4 phones in a span of less than 12 months. Yes I must admit I may have used them in light rain (maybe a day or two) and it accidentally fell on the sink but I managed to quickly take it out so no worries there and I was confident no large amount of liquid went "inside" thru the ports and what not. And my phones had proper protection with a high-quality case around it. But due these circumstances it is a still a worrying statistic don't you think? So now I told myself just get a proper water resistant phone .

  • Yes its volte support u can make voice calls from Jio without data , haven't tried on both sims I'm using Jio on sim 1

  • Yeah I know , have a look at specs page its written splash and dust resistant , maybe It can handle little bit rain too not water resistant like samsung

  • I took delivery of my G5 plus yesterday & immediately after charging can see the battery drops 2-3% !! Then after being on stand by over night the battery has dropped a whopping 25% !! This is ridiculous on Android 7. I've done some playing about in settings today & will monitor. Has anyone else had issues with battery drain like this?

  • sir. can we make calls after closing 4g data . i mean this phone is pure volte on both sim. and can we make direct video calls. SIR PLEASE REPLY

  • Ringing them sometimes is too painful in the ear coz they don't give you accurate and correct advice.

  • Is there in software update in this phone after npn 25.137.67

  • yes this phone is 4G and supports LTE out of the box

  • sir can you pls tell me sir. this phon supported volte/lte ?

  • when you make voice then u feel voice is not clear, always other side person claim what is going near you ur sound is not clear..

  • I don't know about this haven't tried , ask moto customer care regarding this

  • Would the Moto G5 Plus be safe in light rain and an accidental dunk in the sink?

  • Yes EIS works with 1080p 30fps option only u can also record videos 1080p 60fps and 4K , autofocus is fast but not as fast as laser auto focus like in moto g4 plus

  • When recording a 1080p does the G5 Plus has some form of digital or electronic stabilisation for less shakes and good low light photos? Autofocus is fast?

  • Is e Compass is essential for Navigation?I don't know clear usage of this.

  • any news about OS updates???

  • you can make a call from Jio sim without a JIo app and Data

  • Obviously Nokia 6

  • It has Volte support out of box Jio works fine, no need to switch to mobile data for making calls

  • as this phone is lte,so to use jio for calling purpose,jio 4g vioce have to be download????and internet should always be open to use.

  • not compass in europe. wait?

  • Zuk z2 , honor 6x , moto g5 plus , lenovo p2

  • sir i want to purchase a new phone ,can u sugest me for the best ,,,in range of rs 15000

  • My phone take 30mins+ time to charge 90-100% Is it normal ??

  • Iam using g5plus without any problem for 1.6month battery back up is good for one full day processor Snapdragon 625 RAm camera quality display each and everything is perfect according to price value for money

  • My moto g5 plus mobile's battery drain's 100% to 97% in just 2 mins. Is anyone facing the same?

  • Glad I got a phone made in India

  • Yes, it's the US version dual sim

  • Does the XT1681 model exist? referring to Moto G5 Plus.

  • Which phone u want buy in comparison between Nokia 6 vs Moto g5plus. camera comparison Nokia 6 ( 16 mp f 2.0 aperture with dual flash) Moto g5 plus camera u already know slightly better performance u see on Moto at night photos. as on daylight it is almost same on both devices.and some benifit on Moto g5 plus when u capture near photos like of flowers.u see better burred background due to f2.7 aperture on Moto g5 plus. Speed -sd430 vs sd625 on my point of u sd625 process is slightly better than sd430 but u might see some differences while playing games on both devices extra features- Nokia 6 has compass but Moto g5 does not have. This feature more helpful for those people who use gps for finding way. Premium design =Nokia 6 and great build quality but Moto g5 + doesn't have 2-5D glass(Nokia 6) 2d glass Battery backup Moto g5plus have better battery backup it is 25 min to 35 min more than Nokia 6 Which device u choose?

  • On moto display it shows charging symbol , next time when u charge ur phone press lock key and u will see charged written that means ur phone is fully charged

  • it's happened all g5 plus device??? but I have use so many Android phone... but all devices are automatically disconnect from the charger after 100% charged.

  • Yes it normal. If shows charging symbol but doesn't charge for safety unplug after fully charge

  • Don't go for oneplus one it's has old hardware now sd801 , nokia 6 has sd430 soc and moto g5 plus has sd625 soc If u need phone for just basic usage then go for nokia 6 or recommended device is moto g5 plus

  • after 100% charged my phone showing he take charge..... I mean after 100% charge it did not disconnect the charger... is it normal or problems with my phone (g5 plus) ???

  • Moto G5 plus is better than all of the other mentioned device...it is an overall package and has all those things that are required in a basic phone

  • I would like to buy a phone and after analyzing the market my preferred options are: Nokia 6 3GB Ram 32GB Memory for US $ 180 Moto G5plus 4GB Ram 64 GB memory US $ 230 Oneplus One 3GB Ram 64 GB memory US $ 220 I do not want to pay more than US $ 230 for a telephone I could say that I am a standard user that I need the phone to make calls, send messages, surf the web and see one another video or photos. Nothing that will carry the phone to the limit of its potential. I am very attracted to a good design and the phone looks elegant and strong. The design of the Nokia 6 I really like, I am a fan of Oneplus but for what I want to spend that is the model, maybe it is very old for 2017 and Moto G5 Plus seems to be the best equipped of all but its design I do not like much. A common user like me would realize the differences in terms of performance between a Nokia 6 and Moto 5G plus? Which of the 3 phones would recommend me buy and why?

  • Yeah some time i face this issue so i close app md launch camera app again, I asked moto about this they told camera app has some bug maybe after last update will fix this issue in future , and ask to reset app prefrence

  • after update there is camera opening error, shows " restart your camera " . It is very frustrating . camera open , after restart . any one has similar kind of problem ?

  • Trouble mobile - hang on while you take after first picture. - It you save photo in memory card its disappear after sometime. Though your google drive inactive. -Phone memory photo also disappear after .. - No Photo gallery. so valuable moment photo I lost.

  • In my moto g5+ Jio sim working fine (both sim 1 and 2) you better check sim settings if still problem persist reset the phone.

  • I also want replace my pH..but didn't give Flipkart... nd Flipkart tell ur replacement product went another area.... now a days Flipkart is 3rd class

  • Keep it bcoz I feel its packaging issues handset is same

  • Bro I got made in China version but the phone works well Am I ask for a replacement. Or keep it ??

  • Yes, its normal also it depends on room temp, If u charge in ac room than it will charge much faster

  • Camera is good in outdoor and low light performance is also ok for me rest I feel that its packaging issues or something like that , I don't think moto made this g5 units in India maybe we received old package or amazon receive new made in India package

  • I bought from Flipkart and it's written as made in China and model xt186

  • I Bought Moto G5 Plus 32 GB and 4 GB . Its not support Reliance Zio VOLTE. Anybody can help me.

  • Buy from authorised seller from Flipkart and how did u know u got a Chinese unit

  • What is the difference between Chinese and Indian version I got a Chinese??

  • yeah hourly update.

  • will it get regular update?

  • Had this phone for several months now. Size and features are good - what I was looking for. One deficiency is that it does not have a light to alert you about battery charging, emails, txt messages, etc. Second, major, deficit is that Motorola has admitted that it won't be passing along Android security updates. Had I known this up front, I probably would not have purchased it.

  • Has anyone experienced SD card failure in this phone? Many other Motos are having problems like corrupt SD cards or suddenly not recognizing them

  • despite the 2GB RAM, in Brazil we have HDTV inside

  • I bought this phone about a week ago. Works very well, fast processor, good sound quality, decent space and has the two sim slots. Camera quality is pretty average, didnt expect much there. I am replacing a dead galaxy s5 and would definitely recommend it as a low to mid priced phone.

  • Of course, we always saw entrymedium , medium and high qualcom soc,...e series are for mtk!

  • In Brazil we have another version XT1683 with only 2 GB of RAM.

  • E & c are budget phone

  • I think they will not choose mtk socs for G, X and Z series bcoz these are base of moto phones, maybe lenovo is interfering in e ,c series with mtk

  • When you set up the fingerprint you were provided with 2 options, the first one was "Ask for print everytime I use the fingerprint" and the other was "Don't ask for a pin" just erase all the fingerprints and be sure to check the correct option, I made the same mistake when I got mine hahahaha

  • its lenovo only. thats why they are using mediatek processors in their moto e moto c lineup. no wonder if they mediatek in moto g lineup also.

  • Lenovo is the parent company but the phones are made my moto

  • G5 plus is from Motorola

  • Lenovo

  • guys i heard that motorola take over by lenovo, now motog5 plus is from motorola or lenovo make .

  • If u want good performance, stock rom handy phone with good rear camera then moto g5 plus , if u want to buy Samsung phone then go for S6 it has good specs and rear camera

  • Ok I used Moto g (1st Gen). That was my best experience with moto g but unfortunately it was stolen. Now I am using A5 2017 since February. My main complaint about A5 is the worst selfie and fringerprint. The great things you will get in A5 is best display, rear camera, two days battery life and smoth ui along with monthly security update. ops My A5's display has broken by falling my bike's keys on it

  • Hello I had a moto g4 plus and now wanted to change the phone I have the following options: moto g5 plus, galaxy s6, a5 (2017) j7 prime and j7 pro. So according to your opinion which should i consider buying keeping in view the specs, design, camera, resale and price? Thanks in advance ☺

  • Supplied charger charges phone in 2 hrs from 0-100% if u charge phone in cool environment ie ac room then it will charge a bit fast

  • Ask for a replacement

  • The phone is good sd 625 handle phone good, battery can last for a day , charge fully in 2 hrs , camera is good for this price range , speaker is average not so loud , fingerprint is good and acurate , rest check YouTube for full reviews.

  • Still waiting for the full review. Especially the audio quality test. It's a popular phone. So I don't understand why the test isn't coming.

  • Till when network prblm b solved?? its so irritating always the network get lost

  • Bought this phone from Flipkart .. facing speaker issue. .low sound and poor quality sound .. have received update from Moto and I have updated still facing speaker issue .. do all of you have same issue ?

  • Yes it has Volte

  • charging time is taking 1 hour for full charge. is that fine or any one getting faster

  • Firstly price of Moto g5 plus is higher then Nokia 5 and j5 .in comparison between Nokia 5 and nokia 6 .nokia 6 is better. The price of Nokia 6 will be little less as compared to moto g5 plus. best in these phone is Moto g5plus (more durable and better processor and gpu) (if u want better built quality and great looking phone 2.5D glass then go for Nokia 6 ( as performance comparison Moto g5plus good) but Nokia 6 also good havingSD430 but still it is good. no big deal.

  • Have This Phone Volte

  • Try a hard reset might be a software bug..

  • I am using this phone for 20 days its not very hot its gets only warm its normal charging backup processor is very good

  • Moto g5 plus for sure

  • Samsung J5, Nokia 5 or Moto G5 plus??? Which is best?? Opinions please... I'm confused.

  • Phone is good except that we can't make video call using volte. We can do video calls using third party apps only. No update is provided since this was launched. Waiting for video call option to work with much awaited update.

  • It happens sometime but shouldn't happen everytime u lock or unlock

  • Whenever i unlock my phone by fingerprint and then lock and again unclock device says to put pattern.. Many time it is happening any solution

  • Moto g5 plus support fast charging and comes with fast charger everyphone heats while fast charging and while gaming every phone heats .. go for apple no fast charging no heat problem solved

  • Oppo phone has just a good selfie camera rest every thing is very average sd430 moto g5 plus has sd 625 soc which heats less and fast charging / long gaming/camera causes heat but that's normal almost all phones gets heat

  • Moto g5 plus support ultra HD camera means 4k recording support (2160)p . Low light camera is really good. Day light camera also good with 1.7 aperture. Moto g4 plus support 1080p camera means full HD . So u purchase Moto g5 plus. Because Moto g5 plus is better than Moto g4 plus. Moto g5 plus improve camera ,processer.

  • HI, im confused between OPPO A57 and MOTO G5plus. which phone i should take.as per the reviews MotoG5 plus has heating problems

  • confused...which should I go for...!!! Moto G4 Plus 16mp or G5 Plus 12mp....?? suggest me plzz,,,

  • what about battery backup

  • This is an excellent phone let down by one very important thing that matters to people travelling and people using navigation apps (be it walking or driving) like Google Maps or Waze and that is...a lack of compass. Having an old Moto G4 and using Google Maps for walking navigation I am unable to calibrate the app coz of having no compass too just like the newer G5 Plus. Even if I have more than average network signal I still find myself getting lost on occasions. And G-Maps can sometimes freeze or load slow. Any good alternative phone?

  • Ok, i'm most likely gonna buy this in a few days but what do you think G5Plus or a P9lite?

  • I have received China version.... Is this chinis mobile????

  • It's camera quality is goog, it can capture details in day lights and we'll as artificial lighs. It's the best camera in it's price range

  • Tell me about its both camera how is it in low light?

  • The output is good , use good quality headphones for better experience

  • How is audio output using earphones? How is bass?

  • U can go for zuk z2 sd 820 for 14K but camera is average also I don't like zuk OS , redmi note 4 average camera , good battery no fast charge support..I personally have all these devices but g5 plus is my daily driver.

  • It can last for a full working day sot 7-8 hrs from 100-10/20% depending on usage and network connection

  • Easily lasts 1 day with moderate to heavy usage

  • Nope anything similar in price has less hardware

  • Hi guys, I'm considering buying this phone and I'm wondering if there are any worthy alternatives that are similarly priced? Thanks.

  • Please tell me how much battery hours after full charge

  • Yes, I have that's why I replied to ur question

  • I have been using it from past 3 months....I didn't have any call problem nor any call drops

  • Someone please tell that does Moto G5 plus dual sim model has dedicated Memory card slot ?? can we use two sims and Memory card at the same time ??? please reply

  • I have owned the G5 plus for a couple of months and have been constantly annoyed with the call quality. I am never able to understand what the other person is saying. If I reboot the phone it seems to clear up for a few hours, but eventually I have the same problem again. I returned the phone for an exchange, but the replacement suffered the same problem. After searching the web I have found out this is a common complaint for anyone using the g5 with Verizon. Motorola / Lenovo's forums are full of complaints about this problem. They have said they are looking into it, but it's been months with no fix. So if you have Verizon, stay away from the G5 plus.

  • I bought the mobile last 1month now it s hangout warast mobile

  • Super camera for the price.

  • Go for vivo smartphone they are only made for some special moonlight selfies

  • n o , this phone sucks

  • Nubia but no well establish service centre in India

  • it won't be great, but will do okay unless you expect top tier performance. Its one of the dull points of the phone honestly.

  • Is the selfie camera of g5+ is good ?? Please help me ?

  • any update on network issue???

  • Hey i have the focus problem with the moto g5 plus camera .it doesn't foces on the particular object please suggest me what should i do

  • Can any one tell me ..... Is this phone works up to 3 yrs ???? Please help me

  • Thanks

  • J7 max has mtk p20 soc while g5 plus has sd625 soc, I feel MTK socs are not well optimized if u want Bigger screen and better selfies than go for j7max and if u want stock rom, handy phone than moto g5 plus rest specs are same

  • Which is better mobile samsung galaxy j7 max or moto g5 plus?

  • yes I am using jio in my moto g5 plus.....it works on sim slot 2

  • both sim slots JIO VOLTE, but only one at a time

  • Love this phone! I have used Samsung for many years and this phone is just as good without the huge price tag The only negative is the lack of a notification light. I am not a fan of sound notifications and have relied on the flashing light to let me know I have a message, E-mail or missed call. I have told everyone I know that has a Android phone to check this phone out!

  • Why the led light hidden in this devise????

  • It has 1080p screen mann. It has NFC in India. It has better UI than Xiomi. It is value for money and does xiomi have turbo charge ??? What more do u need from budget android phone

  • The only thing this one has going for it is the battery, but otherwise... - low quality screen with low resolution (720p only) and low contrast - potato camera that smudges all the details and tries to make up for it with oversharpening - poor led flash with strong yellow cast - bad reception - no compass and no nfc - poor build quality with loose buttons No thanks. You're much better off buying Lenovo directly, or even better a Xiaomi Note 4, or wait for the Note 5 which should come soon.

  • Does this supports volte as in the description it's mentions LTE does jio SIM works I. The cell if yes then I which slim slot 1 or 2 kindly suggest

  • whichever you want

  • Moto g5 plus Indian units has NFC

  • i am from argentina and right now i have enable NFC. My model is XT1681.

  • No, Moto G5 Plus does not have NFC feature

  • Please give review this moto g5 plus

  • NFC??????

  • I use galaxy note not but took 2weaks order battery. I don't have Motorola service center in my country but don't care because quality better than Samsung which I use as backup but after 1 year need to change mobo. Pls read your manual to use g5

  • Of couse g5 for camera, zuk for faster chip. Xiaomi out of league (i tried)

  • at 5MP i would not recommend it.

  • Which one is best Moto g5 plus or Lenovo Z2 plus or mi note 4???

  • How is the quality of selfie/front camera

  • I had redmi note 4 the performance and battery was good but camera was very average also r redmi note 4 has hybrid slot no proper dual sim and sd card slot also Xiaomi is very slow with updates also I don't like this chinese roms stock rom is better Decide if u want better battery, bigger screen no GG3 ,hybrid slot, average camera then redmi note 4 for better camera , proper sim+sd card slot , stock rom better fingerprint scanner etc go for moto g5 plus.

  • what about redmi note 4? the performance of moto is better than redmi note 4 ? I am very confused between this two phones. please give some suggestions.

  • this device have no compass sensor ???

  • Great on Camera, dual sim and the fact that its both Gsm and Cdma. This phone is not 4g Lte capable. If data speed means much for you, you can buy this phone

  • GG3 will prevent display from minor scratches only and if the device fall then it will get some scratches/dents or display may shatter depend upon situations,temper glass is highly recommended with a good quality case rest the hardware is good can last for 3 yrs rest even ,all the devices screen can shatter if fall

  • Depends upon usage if ur extreme user it will easily last 3yrs
