        Our family owns 3 Moto G5s from Costco and 4 iPhones... all work well. Camera on Moto G5 is minimally acceptable for distance shots... All other functions are great. the Motorola G5+ has an exceptionally long batter life, particularly when contrasted with our iPhone 6 and iPhone 7,,, Great phone for less than half the cost of our iPhones.

            Using Motorola for the first time and having a bad experience. Purchased it like couple of months back, got a defected piece. Sim slots were not working. I asked for a replacement and got a new one. Things didn't end here, I got notification for software update this morning. Downloaded and installed the new update and bang on.........Wow!!!! sim slots again failed to work.

            Restored the phone to factory setting..lost my important stuff as a result. Would not suggest any one to update your software.

            Not satisfied at all.

                The SD625 (G5+) was a much needed upgrade in terms of performance, thermals and battery, and the SD430 (G5) doesn't have the same thermal issues as the 616/617

                    In other words I can keep my LG G3 for now because only G5 Plus makes sense.
