SShreyas, 30 Mar 2021Useless, as always. How can real life experience be differ... moreCalm down. You’re talking to people here. I would offer you a beer if it weren’t for the pandemic. I’m just saying that comparing phones by some numbers on the sheet doesn’t always give you the right idea. 33W charting doesn’t mean much if I don’t need it. I spend most of my time in office, in car or at home. So I don’t care if I charge my phone in 30 or 45 minutes, because there is always a charger when I need it. Bad amoled is not necessarily better than good LCD. And again, it depends on what you really need. 60hz vs 120hz is another useless compariaon. Yeas, in slow motion videos you can see the difference but my eyes don’t see in slow motion. Also, for what I do with my phone, amoled or lcd, 60hz pr 120hz, 20W or 33w charging... I don’t care. I prefer a phone with stable system, reliable connetion anc clean interface . Poco had numerous problems with 4G, never had one with Motorola. Poco has bloatware, Motorola none. So yes, numbers on paper don’t say much about real life experience. Want a beer?

        useless, 27 Mar 2021On paper ... real life experience can be much different. Useless, as always.
        How can real life experience be different when viewing Amoled and LCD or charging with 33W and 20W?
        I mean, anything? You just wrote what came to your mind?

          I don't know if "Android One" is "stock Android" pr not. But if it isn't, then no other version of Android can be called "stock"

              And here I am, stuck with "Android One", aka "super"-stock Android, that keeps lagging and restarting phone of its own.

              I'd still go with MIUI over such a horrendous "stock Android" experience.
              BTW, how much storage those "bloatware" occupy on yours? For the idea, my "stock Android" is currently consuming 18GB out of 64.

                this motorola g100 like motorola edge s in china! i think that they just take that phone and rename it

                    Since motorola doesn't want to release this phone in north america, I believe all motorola phones should be off the market. They would sell lots of these if they brought it to america.

I am currently on OxygenOS 11 and since 10 it has become a little more "oppo-ey" but i can work with it because its much cleaner than MIUI.

But if you look past it, then the customisation in that thing is INSANE. Stock android has only recently started to catch up with all that customisation game.

                                        For once motorola had a chance, but they butchered it with that price. If thier target dempgraphic cpuld only jave been SD870 for a cheap price they could've easily been a banger. (By cheap price i mean- cheaper than the competition)
