It has proximity issues, it will not answer calls and the screen goes black....as for the screen, I have had 4 claimed in the last 4 months for the screen shattering from a fall from the couch, desk, pocket, bedside table.....all falls from less than 36". The screen absolutely shatters even under the screen protector.
Without question this is a factory defect..... In the 20 years before this phone, I have never broken a single screen....
Worst POS EVER!!!!

This is possibly the worst phone in the history of phones of any type including tin cans that connect via string. Oh it's great for texting and browsing the web, but what do we usually want to do on our phone? I thought it was talk to people. Well if you want to do that, buy another phone cause this one will drop you like a bad date. It will ghost you when you dial up, you think you are connected and silence. Nothing like chatting to your BFF and exactly when the "he did what?"..dropped call. Try answering this phone and hear "click" as it quietly yet persistently hangs up on every other call. Do you have a window in your home? Stand by it and pray the stars align and you can actually talk on this phone. Buy another phone, buy two cans and some string..either will be better that this Motorola 5G UW. Going back to Google Pixel or maybe an Iphone. I have an Iphone for work that answers calls, dials people up, and never drops the call anywhere in my house.

I got this phone in May 2021 when my pixel died in the middle of the night. It frankly sucks. Don't recommend it to anyone. My phone screen has broken twice after two small falls of about 3 ft up, once only a month after it being repaired. I can't even make calls half the time to my parents because it won't connect. It lags when I try to open any apps or type up messages. The phone restarts itself multiple times a day or needs to be restarted in order to use certain functions. I do not recommend it at all and I'm hoping to switch to an apple, Samsung or Google as soon as possible cuz I cant handle this anymore. Keep in mind I've not even had it a year.

I've had a lot of really awesome phones and so far this one I like the best. No issues at all. It's fast and very reliable. Can't think of a phone ide rather have.

You get what you pay for. I bought it because it was on the cheaper end. Boy was that a mistake. It seriously is unreliable. Texting does not work. It stutters and sometimes completely stops altogether. On the bad days it restarts itself as many as three times!! Not to mention manually restarting the phone so It will work. It's closes and opens apps on its own. Bluetooth does not work; this is vital for a modern day smartphone. It has many issues and has overall been a major disappointment and downgrade from my previous Motorola smartphone.

If your phone is actually charging that quickly clearly there is some battery degredation, 15w charging won't get a phone to 100% in 10 minutes unless you somehow have a 500Mah battery instead of a 5000Mah. Charging doesn't work that way sorry, your phone being at good battery health and lasting long yet charging in 10 minutes on a 15w charger is impossible 😂😂😂

First one I got I thought just a lemon it was seriously possessed I couldnt get it to do anything, texting a nightmare, no one can hear you have to have it on speaker always, it woke me up at 4 am with someone saying you need to start your christmas shopping today and wouldnt shut up, alarm wont turn off i have to turn phone off i could go on and on. Verizon replaced it with the same phone and it is actually worse than the first one, loses contacts, you put them in and next day they are gone, texting forget about it. Seriously this phone is the worst I have ever owned.

Pros
Supports mmwave... what is that?
Supports turbo charge... fast!
90hz display refresh rate... smooth graphics and games.
Designed for 5G speed with Qualcomm's 7nm racer chip.
Macro Vision camera, an ultra-wide-angle lens, Night Vision.
Operates in the upper bands of the 5G spectrum... the others are left behind.
Cons
Needs a sturdy case for protection.
Cheap looking keys.

I recently purchased a new Motorola one 5G phone. Less than a week ago to be exact. I have been a long time user of Motorola phones, but I'm going to have to change brands. The Motorola website clearly states, "Water worries? Not us", "accidental spills or splashes, or getting caught in the rain, are no match for the water repellent design..." Well anyway I got caught in the rain, and now the camera lens has moister behind it. I took it back to Verizon, they said can't help you because water damage, I then called Motorola, and again no help because water damage. I get it if I dropped the phone in a puddle, or the dreaded toilet drop that's on me. But this is a defective product. I have owned 6 Motorola phones before this one, and never had this issue. A little and sometimes even a lot of rain never phased the other phones. With that being said I will be finding a new favorite phone ASAP.

Obviously Samsung and Apple have moles posting BS to discourage buyers. Bought the 1 5g UW from Verizon in May - works flawless, powerful battery life, gorilla glass; gotta love the perp that said screen broke dropping on carpet lol. For 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of those other overpriced guys lol.

Had a Motorola that was dropping calls at home that was less than 18 months old, upgraded to Moto one and am not dropping calls anymore. Have other issues.
