Moto G8 Plus: Pros & Cons

8.4

out of 10

MSP Score

Pros

The Moto G8 Plus is one of the best-priced devices Motorola has released as the value for money is quite apparent when you compare it with its competition. The phone has good camera offerings, excellent battery life, and is powered by the Snapdragon 665 SoC, which is an impressive mid-range chipset.

Cons

The G8 Plus comes with stock Android which means there is no bloatware and is light, but it also means you don't get the bells and whistles that other phone manufacturers add as software features. While the phone's battery does support fast charging, the competitors offer faster charging speeds as compared to the G8 Plus.

Verdict

All in all, the Moto G8 Plus is a pretty sweet deal as it offers excellent value for money. The rear camera system is impressive and definitely one of the highlights of this device. The phone is a good option if you're looking for something other than Realme and Xiaomi devices.

Moto G8 Plus Details

Design

Like most Motorola phones, the Moto G8 Plus has a utilitarian design. It has a glass sandwich design with a metal frame. The bezels are quite thin save for the chin where the Motorola logo is placed. Moving onto the back, you get the signature circular camera protrusion found on the Moto devices.

Display

The Moto G8 Plus sports a 6.3-inch Full HD+ display. It offers a pixel density of 407 ppi, which makes up for a sharp screen. The display is an IPS (In-Plane Switching) type panel. Compared to the regular LCDs, the IPS display offers wide viewing angles. The display has a dew-drop notch to accommodate the selfie camera. For protection against the scratches, the screen is protected by Corning's Gorilla Glass.

Performance

As you may have already guessed, the Moto G8 Plus packs in more power compared to its predecessor. Compared to its predecessor's 14 nm Snapdragon 636, the Moto G8 Plus is backed by the Snapdragon 665 SoC (System on Chip) built on 11 nm process. The phone can handle casual games owing to its Adreno 610 GPU. The device comes with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB internal storage. You can expand it further via a microSD card slot. The handset runs Android 9 Pie with almost stock UI.

Cameras

Motorola has loaded this phone with the triple camera setup. It comes in 48 MP + 16 MP + 5 MP configuration. The camera offers features such as Cinemagraph, Portrait mode, Cutout, Panorama, Manual mode, RAW photo output, Active photos, Best shot, and Google Lens integration. If you like taking selfies, there's a 25 MP front-facing shooter for it. This one supports modes such as Face Beauty, Auto smile capture, Cinemagraph, Portrait, and Group selfie.

Battery And Connectivity

The Moto G8 Plus packs in a 4,000 mAh battery. The phone has a USB Type-C port with fast charging support. The device has two SIM slots and supports 4G. Othe connectivity features include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, A-GPS (network assisted), NFC, and 3.5 mm headphone jack.
