I bought this phone specifically due to the hype about the oled screen, I now realise the mistake I made, colours are blown out proportion and look bad, faces don't look real, is there any fix to this

    I've recently bought this phone but now have a choice between keeping this or having my husband's Huawei p30 lite. Typically, I can't decide - any opinions?

      Just bought G31 for my daughter. I'm very impressed with the quality of the phone; the brightness of the screen, the good quality speaker, and camera is amazing for the price.

        Updates are the only bad thing about moto phones

        This phone is still stuck with android 11

        Any idea when android 12 is expected?

              Tonik, 21 Aug 2022Hey 👋 I wanted to ask those who know a great deal about sof... moreWorst Phone I ever used honestly. It mutes number of times on call, the call gets disconnected each time your ear or cheed touches the screen. The brightness level get reduced as you talk, it goes on aeroplane mode quite often, in sun we are unable to see the screen and what not. I can prove so many defects that I hate this moto G31 phone and I hate my self for buying it honestly. My boss openly said I am hanging the phone on him but the fact is it is disconnecting on its own. Also it has send voice messages of my conversation in a group which was very embrassing. So right minded people please do no go for this model as you will regret in you life it is like buying a dog which will always bite you. I can prove this to anyone.

                        Read all your opinions and I found many info, thank you everyone! But there is something still missing about this phone that I don't know how to find:

                        You said NFC depends on the area. I'm Italian and on the official Italian Motorola website it says that the G31 has NFC but the version sold is 4/128 and costs way more than other websites or ebay. I found the 4/64 version on another Italian web shop at 129€ and for my budget it's an absolute bargain, but in the specs it says that there's no NFC. Is there a way to find out if the model sold has NFC or not? Do I have to search the serial number on google? Sorry but English is not my main language and I'm not very good at these things. My Redmi Note 8 Pro is broken and I need a replacement ASAP at around the same price (I paid it 129€ a year and a half ago) but with NFC, that's essential to me. And at this price tbh there is no smartphone beating the G31, I don't want to buy another Xiaomi that seems to be the only brand offering something decent around this price range like the Redmi 10c which has NFC and a good processor but the display is just...no 😅.

                        Thank you to everyone who will answer!

                          I sync my contacts from outlook to the phone through MyPhoneExplorer. No sync with Google accnt. I do use Google Contacts in Realme8, but the part above 1.000 characters gets truncated in the phone. The same thing is happening with Xiaomi and Samsung.

                          Thank you again for your help.

                            Alfabravo, 11 Sep 2022Hello, Could someone please check if the notes field of ... moreHey man,

                            It does. I tested it at over 10,000 characters and it supports it (though with that much data it takes a couple of seconds to load the contact.) It's just the default Google Contacts app that I use at the moment, but I don't sync it to Google (keep it on the device memory only) so I dunno about if synchronized contacts support it or not.

                            Anyway, further regarding my experiences with the phone. It is nice to use. I have disabled all the unneccessary apps and gestures, customized it to be as slick as possible and this phone is good, I can still recommend it.

                              Hello,

                              Could someone please check if the notes field of the contacts accepts text with more than 1.000 characters in this phone?

                              The Realme8 which I currently have accepts only 1.000 characters in each contact and truncates the rest of the characters. The same thing is happening with all Samsung and Xiaomi phones I checked.

                              I keep notes for each customer (contact) and often the notes exceed the set limit.

                              I didn’t have this problem with my previous phone which was a Moto G5s

                              I’d appreciate any help.

The Moto G31 seems to be excellent value for money. I'm currently tweaking/customizing it to see what I can get out of it, I have to say I like it more and more as I use it. I'm even getting used to the size - while I don't find it necessary for a phone to be this big and I definitelt wouldn't mind a smaller phone, I'm getting used to it and feeling ok about it.

                                I can recommend this phone for anyone who values the same things as I do:
                                - Bang for the buck.
                                - Near blank slate Android.
                                - OLED screen.
                                - Long lasting battery.
                                - Headphone jack and microSD slot.

                                Yeah, this phone is a winner in my book.

                                    I got this phone a few days ago as a replacement for my Honor 7 which bit the dust (RIP my friend.) Here are my first thoughts:

                                    Pros:
                                    - OLED display is absolutely beautiful.
                                    - Performance is very smooth and snappy.
                                    - Battery life seems to be good for a smartphone. I charged it to 80% yesterday morning and this morning it was at 47%. I'm not a very heavy smartphone user mind you.
                                    - Headphone jack and microsd slot 🥳
                                    - Motorola's flavor of Android seems to be very clean. There's barely any bloat, except Facebook which I uninstalled and some needless (to me) Google apps, but it seems they can be disabled if not uninstalled completely 🤔

                                    Cons:
                                    - The phone is just a tad too big for my tastes. I realize this is the way phones are these days, but I would certainly prefer a smaller phone. In fact I have used even Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini as my daily driver phone as recently as a few years ago and to me it wasn't too small at all 😄 You can't comfortably use this phone one handed for most tasks, which to me is the by far biggest con of this phone.
                                    - Only 4 gb of ram, which I was a little concerned about due to my terrible experiences with Android memory management (apps closing without my consent.) I disabled a setting related to ram and battery savings, have to keep an eye on things... Though I read that Motorola Android is not as aggressive in memory management as some other manufacturers. We'll see.
                                    - Many annoying and unnecessary gestures which just make using the phone more difficult are enabled by default, but they can be disabled relatively easily if you dig around a bit. I'm not entirely sure if this is a Motorola or Android 11 thing, as I'm making a jump from Android 6.
                                    - Camera is "ok" but nothing more. This might be a dealbreaker for some, I personally don't care as long as its passable, which it is.
                                    - Non removable battery 👎🏻 Again, I realize that this is how most phones are these days, but I still consider it a con nonetheless.

                                    Personally, I got this phone on a deal for 149€. For that price, this phone is phenomenal. The other phones I was eyeing were Sony Xperia 10 IV, Motorola Edge 20 and Oneplus Nord CE 2 5G. The Sony phone was the most tempting alternative because it had a smaller size and more ram, but I find their decision not to include a charger and cable to being frankly quite insulting and that is what broke the camel's back for me. The Motorola Edge I eventually decided to be too big, and the Oneplus turned me off because I read terrible things about their Android variant. Also, all of them would have cost considerably more than what I paid for this phone so the choice eventually became obvious.

                                    All in all, for someone like me, who really sees a smartphone primarily just as a tool, this phone so far seems to be a great choice and I couldn't imagine the need to spend more money on more higher end device unless you REALLY care about photography or I find out the hard way that 4 GB of ram will be lacking. It's funny how a phone like this would be considered a "budget" or lower end midrange phone. The performance is absolutely mindblowing for a "budget" phone, as in the past I have seen phones in this price range to suffer from major drawbacks in almost all areas (I'm looking at you, Samsung Galaxy Core Prime. You and your 1 GB of ram... 😠)

                                    Me and my wallet are glad that technology has evolved 😂
