The Viber app opens slowly, and the camera sometimes has bugs.

Tony Lord, 13 Aug 2021270ppi in the year 2021? Hell no!!!Can your robotic eyes pick up the pixels? The normal human eye cannot pick up pixelation at 270 ppi. You just trying to find something to complain about.

At first its a bit big, as I am used to smaller screen sizes but you get used to it very quickly.

From apart of whiny kids, who doesn't like the specs of a phone which isn't made for its specs; and for some reason they come and bash it, because its not a far-eastern "marvel" (at least I hope its not) full of bloatware - why do you think your redmi, and xiaomi is that cheap? thats the price of your security(which you don't give a shit-Iknow) - DID ANYONE USE IT?
So can someone please answer some basic questions about the phone?
1.: Will this phone probably hold more than an average consumer phone (so more than 2years)?
2.: Does it have problems like the other NOT far-eastern-cheapcompanies-made rugged phones (nokia(seems software issues), cat(battery))?
And all in all what's your opinion about the phone, IF you USED it?
Thanks.

I've had it for 2 weeks now. Personally, I didn't look for a gaming phone, 'cause I'm not usually playing games on my phone, so the chipset didn't turn me off. Didn't look for a phone with a great camera either, though the specs for the camera didn't look that bad. I was looking for a decent phone that would survive to accidental drops on concrete and could stay underwater for some time. I'm no construction worker, but I'm pretty careless with my phones and just wanted something that could survive... me.
Didn't test the durability so far, but I'll trust those people on YT that actually tested it for us, the mortals. Seen a lot of people dropping this one and smashing it with a hammer several times to give it at least some credibility. Holding it in my hand, can see that the materials used are top-quality. The grooved back feels really nice and makes it harder for people to drop it accidentally.
Even though it does have only 4gb ram and doesn't come with the best chipset out there, personally, I didn't feel the need for more. As I'm only watching videos on different platforms from time to time, using the phone for online meetings, searching information on different things, and even playing some games, the phone performed well. No lag, no anything.
The phone doesn't seem to run into heating problems. The only time I'm feeling SOME heat is when the phone is charging. No biggie, cause the change in temperature is barely noticeable. That might be normal, because of the fast-charge function, something that I don't know how to disable atm.
Camera is... decent. Using the different modes, could provide you with good quality photos. It can get bad at night, but night mode comes in handy. Don't get your hopes up though... If you want good photos, go buy a professional camera.
Loudspeaker... pretty good for me. Sound is loud and, that's really impressive, clear. You can hear clearly what people are saying in videos, also mp3s. ALSO, it has a 3.5mm Jack. If you're wearing headphones from time to time, it may come in handy.
Battery... it's ok, I guess. Using it intensely for full 5-6 hours a day, I can charge it once in 2 days. Well, keep in mind that I'm not charging it to 100%, only 80% and not letting it drop less than 15%.
For me, there is only one downside. Yes, it's dual-sim. Yes, you can slot a microSD card. No, you can't have two sims and a microSD card at the same time. BUT... that 64 GB is more than enough if you don't download a lot of games and only keep photos and music on it. If you remember to download the photos on your pc/external drive and then delete them from your phone, 64gb it's more than enough for everyday use.
Overall, keep in mind that Motorola gives you, FIRST AND FOREMOST, a RUGGED phone, and SECONDLY, a decent speced phone for 250 euros. (depends on the country you live). For this money and for what I'm actively looking, this phone is the best I could find.
