Motorola Moto G7

The Moto G6 saw Motorola move from a 16:9 screen to a taller screen with 18:9 aspect ratio. With the Moto G7, the now-Lenovo-owned company has increased the screen-to-body ratio even further (to 19:9) by moving to a larger and taller screen. The display bears a waterdrop notch at the top-middle portion accommodating the front-facing camera as well as the earpiece. Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3 panel covers the entire front part of the Moto G7.

At the rear, the Moto G7 has a circular dual-camera assembly, featuring the dual-LED flash and a surprised minion-like face. A glass panel covers the back with rounded corners. There is a fingerprint sensor on the rear, hidden inside the Motorola logo. The power and volume buttons on the right side leaving the left side completely devoid of any slots or buttons. The microSD and SIM card slot are at the top while the speaker grill, USB Type-C port, and the 3.5mm headphone jack are placed at the bottom of the Moto G7. The phone is also resistant to dust and water splashes, similar to that of the Moto G6.

Similar to the Moto G6, the Moto G7 has a 12MP+5MP dual rear camera setup. The 12P sensor features f/1.8 aperture, 1.25µm pixels, PDAF, and 4K video recording at 30fps. The 5MP depth sensor unit which has f/2.2 aperture and allows the Moto G7 to capture still images with background blur effect (commonly known as Bokeh). On the front, the Moto G7 packs an 8MP selfie snapper with 1080p video recording and Face Unlock feature.

Motorola has equipped the Moto G7 with a 3,000mAh battery supporting fast charging (at 15W Turbo Charge). The company also bundles a compatible Turbo Charger inside the phone’s box so that you won’t have to buy it separately. While not as fast as Quick Charge 3.0 or Dash Charge, it’s still better than all the 2018 iPhones that come bundled with measly 5W chargers.
