Motorola Moto X5 - User Reviews

  • I happened upon a great deal with my Moto X4 for $139US and really like this phone. The G series are so similar to this older phone it doesn't warrant an upgrade, and the Z series are too expensive for the mediocre chipsets they are using, but for a premium price. Don't get me started on the headphone jack, but I am pleased they brought it back with the Z4. Motorola, please bring back the X5 or build an X6. This is a great series.

  • Motorola where is moto x5?

  • I think, this one got replace by the p30 series? Would have definitely preferred this one. BRING IT BACK PLEASE

  • It looks awesome and has great specs ! Please, Moto, bring it on!

  • Agree. Bring it on motorola

  • Is Moto x5 a Kenobi moto

  • can we just accept that this phone isn't coming out for a while.

  • Why not SD865? ;)

  • I read somewhere that Lenovo canceled this, and decided to announce The P30-series instead.

  • If this will ever see the light of day later this year, it better has SD710 or at least SD670 to be relevant.

  • Thanks for the advice! 😃

  • you can check polish website called allegro, it like ebay and you can find motorola moto x4 and g6 plus, cheers

  • When the moto x5 launch in india?

  • Why the X4 and the G6 plus are not sold in France ? They have everything I want for a decent price. Only the G6 and G6 Play came out here. And we can't buy the X4 anywhere. It has been sold in one store only, few months ago, and is now out of stock! I hope they release the x5 in France and make it available for purchase in several places.

  • hi mithun probably june or july Motorola X5 wil be launching n priced around 22000rs the small bar seen below the chrome icon will be the navigation bar, android P is following the minimalistic design n following the implementation of swipe gesture on finger print sensor on g5s+ probably that bar will work as back button ifs swiped left, single touch will be home bottom n slided right will be recent apps

  • What's the latest on the X5? Coming or cancelled?

  • Q4 2018 Sd845 RAM/ROM 6/128 US$1000 Sd710 4/64 US$850 6000mah, Qc4+,Android pancake My wish

  • When Motorola launch Moto X5 in India...? What is the Price around...? Where is the Navigation Button is fixed...? I am waiting for *official answers*

  • Moto X5 is taking long time time to release, So i changing my mind to buy it. i have been waiting from January. I am disappointed.

  • No... Moto Mods are only exclusive to Moto Z variants.

  • Motorola should replace g6 plus design to less bezzels x5 design.

  • In the end moto cancel this beauty .. Rip motorola future mobile market ..

  • Why are you always so late moto for launching phones .If it will launch along side mi a2 (mi 6x) will be going with mi with ois rather than this .

  • Does this utilize mods also? Like the Z2 does anyone know

  • It's very expensive...the price should be between 12k to 15k....becoz Motorola doesn't have re sell value

  • megapixel count doesnt even matter in phone cameras. That is only required if you want to crop a certain part of image. Beyond 12mpx it is all a paper spec no visible difference in quality. Real thing that decides how well the picture will come out - you always have to look for aperture value. Represented in terms of F number eg- f 2.0, f2.2 For Dslrs this is a variable no. and we can adjust but here in phones we cant. It is usually fixed. Smaller the number, better will be focusing capabilities of a camera, better bokeh in the background and better low light performance. Now if you see aperture number (F number) in high end phones like galaxy s8 or s9, pixel 2, i phone, then you will realize how important it is and this number itself will give you idea that phone will have a better camera. At minimum price moto g5 plus has f 1.7 which no other phone around carries and you if you can hold your phone well (because of lack of optical stabilising) the results will be very similar to that of those flagship phones. No phone in its range or even higher range can compete with it be it g5s plus, xiaomi mia1 or even far more costly moto x5. This single unit camera of g5 plus can outperform any of its costlier competitors if you can hold it properly and learn a lil bit of framing and manual mode. (it is costing 11k inr currently which is a bang for buck if you are a camera enthusiast) or if you are looking for a costlier alternative with other specs also on par then also you have to check for F number before seeing other specs.

  • Congratulations to Motorola . This is the first time that Motorola is finding itself outside the USA in new land China . But hopefully infrared and USB 3.1 haven't been forgotten and re-corrections will have been done before its release ! Isn't corning gorilla glass 5 better for Motorola first ascent with pure android being called android one !!! Thanks for Motorola endeavors....fhd is normal for this newly innovation ! Waiting for better and best in?its new homeland....Justice Rights moral guidelines is encouragement in beautiful plausible language....

  • I really want a AMOLED phone to replace my Lenovo P2

  • Moto x4 with 6gb ram but moto x5 with only 4gb ram ??

  • Battery backup is worst.

  • Screenshot

  • Because the dual camera setup gives a better Image than a single 20MP shutter. so in the front either they give dual camera setup of 8MP like in Honor or a single 16 MP shutter

  • Its a dual 12Mb camera, the quality is higher than a 20Mb single unit.

  • Why they stick to 12mp rear camera and continuously increasing front camera.

  • I love the design... simply amazing

  • It will be above 25000 my friend

  • moto x5 is best in 15000 rangne and best performance phone in 2018

  • Moto x4 with 6gb ram varient for 25k around in india so moto x5 price will directly compare with xiaomi or one plus 5t with far better chipset and ram

  • good specs, hope cpu is more than 2.0 (and not something like 2x2.2 + 6x1.6 or 4x2.2 + 4x1.5 or something like that). Also i hope Dual SIM version has dedicated micro sd slot while still being waterproof, that's something i miss from old phones!!

  • Instead of printing 'Motorola' in the bottom chin, they could have fitted an speaker! I don't need a reminder of what the phone heritage is!!!! (*RIP Moto/Motorola*)

  • For 25 to 27 k price range i will go xiaomi mi 7 with snapdragon 845 insted of 630 which will be launching around 28 or may be 30

  • Yea! I think the same. Hell, this is Motorola, she is in good way to make prize-friendly smartphone. I´ve just praying for price lower than 500€. But it would be really good phone, as like as Moto 4X.

  • If the spec is true, this is going to have one of the best Mobile camera ever

  • If only this phone include 6gb ram and 128gb rom for around 25-27k in india it will cover up the market share of upcoming xiaomi mi 7 , current honor 8pro and view 10 and oneplus 5t

  • 5 years ? 2.5 is imore than enough,maybe 3 ! My razdHD with super amoled lasted for 3 years without any problems .

  • Absolute no Oled cause i want a phone that lasts me more than 5 years! and give me ip67 with a removable battery instead of ip68 with the non-removable battery and wireless charging too!

  • Give us Kevlar back , oled , OIS on cam , 4100 mAh , for 404 eur ! You will sell 5 billion cellular phones ! And FPS on Moto logo !

  • I am hoping that this mobile phone of Moto is quite beautiful. Motorola updates your security patches in a little bit right then this phone can be quite good.

  • no bro it will be above 20k

  • I hope this device comes with Android One support in India, coz moto is very slow with its monthly security updates and then that problem would be easliy solve. and i hope the price of this device should be also around the x4. If it is launched around 23k i would definetly go for this.

  • I like the moto x5 and its specs... But the battery capacity isn't enough. I hope it should come between 18k to 20k price range in India....love you moto and "Hello Moto".

  • I like most of this design, black strip with notifications in the notch is just better than passing it off as space for media imo. Not sure about motorola written at the bottom, pre lenovo the moto x series had barely any branding, just the logo in the dimple. Why not this front, no branding, and the ergonomic shape of the older moto x's?

  • Bear X4 from day it were released and i am completely satisfied. This one looks much strange. No fingerprint sensor also no idea if it have wide camera like X4 or no. Othervise looks good.

  • 2018 will be the year of the notches...Until they find a new solution to overcome that design fault..

  • They tend to affect if you want fullscreen, but hey! Sacrifices need to be made if you want less bezels..

  • This is what a notchphone should be. I hope the notches stay black and doesn't affect movies and videos.
