What are Motorola doing? I see these specs and then read that the G86 will be followed by a G96? The model numbers are getting too numerous.

    So a good sensor finally but they had to ruin it for me by making the screen bigger 🤦🏻‍♂️ ffs

      Has the potential to become the cheapest brand new water resistant phone. (taking the crown away from Moto G75 & Galaxy A26)

      Screen is similar to Moto G35! (It's good)
      But NO HDR certification (unlike G35) But who cares, it turned out to be too gimmicky on an LCD due to low contrast, according to reviews. "it ain't real HDR" they said.

      (I appreciate the effort, Motorola. It's always good to see the industry pushing the limits of LCD. Which I like personally for it's truly flicker-free DC dimming)

            LGs, 5 hours agono ois? whyyCheap phone - that's why!

              Support ends with Android 16, for the 4GB version (who buys sth like that into 2025?! Crazy anyway) and the 8GB/256GB version would get 4 years of security fixes - but Android 17 is the last one for this phone. And Android 16 is out way soon, like always, first on Google Pixel devices. Furtherway, the MediaTek SoC is not powerful enough, for this price class.

              So clearly - it'sa no buy phone, OS updates are way too limited.

                At the very least, they should have chosen the Dimensity 7050. 7060 seems weak

                      -, 7 hours agoOS updates based on memory is diabolical nglThis is not their fault, Google must have told them they will increase their RAM requirements to 6GB with next versions of Android.

                      You should be glad they went the extra mile to give the 8GB model an extra year of updates. But I think at this point we should just stop making 4GB phones.

                          Well... this is a proper "do not buy" device.

                          "Do not buy" should be in the specs sheet.

                            Incredibly shady to screw over the 4gb version with less android updates and security. Hopefully people vote with their wallets.

                              TRK, 12 hours agoMotorola Announced a "CMF phone PRO 2 killer" 😁😁😁😁Not really. This has a slower CPU and a slower GPU. The base variant has less ram than the CMF 2 Pro. The display on the CMF is far better than this. Only thing that is better than the CMF is the battery. It's 200mah larger, however i doubt it will matter much.

                                They just go strong with g75 and 5/6 years update policy, and then we got this. Not to mention awful 4gb ram variant in 2025.

                                  That is a big phone. I'm hoping with silicon batteries we can return to smaller phone options.
