Hi,

I have the Moto G5 Plus Usa version 4 GB Ram, 64 GB Internal Memory. I would have two question. Could you guys help me with that. Thx.

I would like to get a new Micro Sd Card at least 128 GB and Add to my phone as ADDITIONAL INTERNAL MEMORY and Take 4k Movies. Or use Apps from it. So...

Nr 1 question: What would be the fastest speed from my phone end, what my phone could use to WRITE AND READ THE MICRO SD CARD as internal memory?

Nr 2 question: Which Micro Sd Card is really capable of doing that speed in real life and not holding my phone speed back? And make the 4k videos also.

Because as additional internal memory if u don't have the fastest speed u get an error message when the phone would test the card (format) and it is not hitting that speed what it would need to. It can be automatic also, but still.

So It would be nice to know, which is the fastest speed, what my moto G5 plus would need from the micro sd card, to match with that speed. I know at least U3 v30 A1 mark would I need to do 4k. But what is the top speed of being the best as additional internal memory?

A lot of cards say they do like 100 Mb/s Read and 90 MB/s Write speed, but in real life, or real usage it is only 40 Mb/s Read and 30 Mb/s Write speed. Like Samsung Evo Select. When they suppose to do it as 100 Mb/s and 90 Mb/s.

So I just wanna find a memory card which would be a good internal memory for the phone, and would not hold back the phone speed. When i do 4k or using an installed app from it or anything else. Thx again..

        pistachio, 25 Nov 2017ok,, just sayin....................LG is a much more though... moreOn G5+ you do not need to press any button to turn the screen off, just touch the fingerprint sensor, I can not find that option on every other Android phone!

                pistachio, 25 Nov 2017I have discovered two more additional surprises which are ... moreok,, just sayin....................LG is a much more thoughtful company. I just realized that to wake up and sleep my Moto G5 I have to button press. Now that is ok but on my old LG K10 and I think all LG's you can just doubletap the screen to go off or on,,, it's fast, immediate and you can do it while it is lying flat without even picking it up....... this is just a simple easy and best way / I mean, how many times a day do you just want to check notifications..... this constant button pressing is a hassle once having become used to the doubletap..... Lenovo should RETHINK it's ease of use.......I once swore by Motorola,, best built, sturdy and easy... but now... well... I am rethinking my choice !!

                  Cast; Unless you have Chromecast you Cannot cast screen.

                  Reboot; Nope! It's OFF or Nothing / Only Power Off

                  Screenshot; one way only and it takes Both hands. Press Volume down & Power till you hear the snap sound.


                  These aren't dealbreakers - still LG does all these without a hiccup. You could never know all this without owning and using the phone for a few days AND having spent many hours setting it up. By then it's too late to return it.....(if you wanted to)

                  I feel like I was fooled by Motorola / Lenovo.

                  I honestly feel LG is more intuitive and user friendly.

                      Build Quality: Phone is sturdy and feels solid in hand. Size is good and the width fits comfortably in hand for use with mostly one hand. The finishing and detail is very good.

                      Screen: Yes, it is the best looking screen I have ever had. This screen is and Up for me in resoluton and it shows. A pleasure to look at.

                      Camera: first impression is that it is Very Good. Better than my old Moto G and Much Better than my old LG K10.

                      The G5+ is fast and smooth / no lags anywhere..... very satisifying....

                      I would recommend it but for me I do have some annoyances:

                      You cannot modify the grid spacing on the screens / it is 4 across No Matter What.

                      I happen to like five and the four across gives you Big Icons and I feel like I have either a visual handicap or that it is like a kids toy. Really, this should be have customization choices.

                      Next: On the home screen you have a google search bar across the top and it is four wide.
                      That's it,,, no choice here,, you cannot move it, narrow it, delete it or change it in any way at all.
                      But, I think,,,, IT IS MY PHONE - NOT GOOGLES. I BOUGHT IT, PAID FOR IT AND OWN IT. Still,, no changing here....
                      The screen is Bright and that wide white bar SCREAMS at me and I become upset that no one at Motorola \ Lenovo thought about my Experience with this phone. This feature should be customisable.

                      I know now that LG is much more user friendly and very customisable all the way around compared to Motorola. A possible choice for an alternative had I known about these two above drawbacks would have been the LG Q6. The exception is that the processor in it is old and slow......BUT

                      the LG has a Compass and really,,, THIS MOTOROLA SHOULD HAVE A COMPASS TOO.
                      THIS IS ANOTHER DISAPPOINTMENT.

                      My G5+ has 2 gb ram and I thought that it had 3. I found out after I bought it and this set me back. The LG G6 has 3 so that is a benefit.....

                      Overall, I like this phone and I want to be fair... I can live without a compass and with 2 gb of ram but had I known this beforehand I would have kept shopping before making my final decision....
