mhask, 07 Oct 2017Actually in fact truth is this phone is not as good as earl... morei never had a previous moto phone but ok
1) it gets me through the day easily
2) i have a case on all the time and so do others most likely
3) not on mine
4) i really don't mind it
5) aren't there other third party file managers available
seriously, what are you guys doing to your phones? mine works just fine and even i use it quite a bit (youtube, spotify, social media and the occasional game) i must also add that i have the 2gb variant, so not even the top one. if you're coming from a major flagship from max 3 years ago, you have to keep in mind that this is like a $200 phone, not a $700 one.

2. had no experience
3. ??? ... moreActually in fact truth is this phone is not as good as earlier Moto phones
1) Battery backup is Very Bad
2)Body is not metal only back over is COATED WITH Some material
3)Camera hangs if one tries to view photos
4) someone here says Heating to 45°c is normal- This is RIDICULOUS
5)Very inconvenient FILE MANAGER ,Very less options available
NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL

This is a good phone overall, but the battery life is so bad. I have to charge it at least twice a day: sometime in the afternoon and at night while I sleep. I've tried turning off data and Bluetooth while on WI-FI and it does help a bit. But I need to play around with apps and battery options a bit more.
Fast charging is okay, so far my A5 2016's was better in this aspect. This has a small 2800 mAh battery, and it takes around an hour and a half for a full charge. My mom's LG 4000mAh battery takes roughly 2 hours (1:58hrs), and it doesn't support fast charge.
Everything else is good, camera is good, games run smoothly, multitasking is awesome ( I've got only 2gb of ram, so I'm guessing 3gb performs even better). But yeah, keep the charger with you at all times.

I bought this because I had a Moto G previously. Navigation very bad because of missing compass. Direction shows anywhere when walking or driving. Also battery life got worse significantly after 1-2 months. I dont have many apps installed.

I bought the standard G5 having returned the G5Plus because it didn't have a compass. Your site said the standard G5 did, but now I have it, I find it doesn't. Please update your details and now I need to find a phone that does have a compass.

I threw this phone high speed at my radiator and it did not make a single scratch, but when I drop it on the road outside, there are small scratches.
Still very durable.

Moto G5 doesn't have compass Sensor. This makes you difficult in using Maps. You have to rotate manually maps to get idea of roads.
