4G phone with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage! We are in 2025 now and not in 2020 anymore. No OS updates and only two years of security updates. Motorola should just stop dumping their e-waste in India.

    Anonymous, 02 Jan 2025Do you have any source for that? All A73 chips I could find... moreARM's datasheet explains it well, not my own opinion. I'm sure you've referred to Nanoreview, but their comparisons are incomplete and irrelevant at most times.

      The "extreme" in G81 Extreme must stand for "extremely disappointing"

        (Posting again because GSMArena blocks links …)

        Comparison between Exynos 850 (8nm Samsung, A55) and Snapdragon 660 (14nm Samsung, A73)

        -> 54% higher Single Core on 660 despite being on 1.5 generations older node and only having 10% higher clock speed.
        -> I assume your claim about A55 and A73 being the same is made up

All A73 chips I could find were 150% faster in single core than the A55 of SC9863A. And even if it was true, I don’t get what would be great about having 8 A73 cores when A75 is significantly faster in single core. Not to mention the extremely outdated 28nm process. SC9863A is a POS that belongs in the history books like every other phone chip without any sort of A7x series big core, which also includes Helio P22 and G35-37.

              Snapdragon 695 hater, 02 Jan 2025Motorola: making phones worse every year.What's worse is that even the Unisoc SC9863A is technically a better processor than the Helio G81 Ultra, if you consider the fact that the Cortex-A55 cores are essentially rebranded Cortex-A73 cores.

                Just two words: emmc storage. G04 had ufs storage.

                    I think this one can't beat
                    MOTO G34
                    for
                    107euro

                      Very good specs for the price.
                      Really.

                        vik457, 02 Jan 2025Yeah, but why did motorola return to helio p65 derivatives?... moreDon't know about that, they need to get serious about improving the SoC.

                          rizki1, 02 Jan 2025Thankfully at this price point there is still the Redmi 14C... moreYeah, but why did motorola return to helio p65 derivatives? Most of t6xx supports ufs storage unlike them.

                            If what is written in this article is right then your spec page is wrong and lacking: dimensions, no nits, no security upgrades, IP52 instead of 54

                              vik457, 02 Jan 2025Big storage speed downgrade.Thankfully at this price point there is still the Redmi 14C 5G but people don't want Xiaomi making too many phones.

                                Big storage speed downgrade.
