Of course Moto didn't bring the OLED version to the US. I tried the US version, which has IPS LCD, and I returned it the same day. Coming from using Samsung OLED the past 4 years, the Moto screen was a downgrade. Also, the thumbprint sensor on the side is useless if you have a case installed. I had the official Moto case installed, and the ridge along the screen prevented my thumb from making full contact with the sensor. Also, the fit and finish of the case was disappointing considering it's an OEM case. If Moto would have given us OLED, an in display fingerprint sensor, and stereo speakers, I probably would have kept it. So what did I do? Bought another Samsung. Happy now.

    - It's lighter, thinner, and feels better in the hand
    - (Arguably) It looks better
    - Faster charging (30 vs 20 W)
    - "Ready For" capable, whereas Samsung Dex is reserved for their top dogs.

          - It has a better camera than A52s
          - (Arguably) Has better software
          - Metal frame vs an all-plastic build of A52s

            For 1gen users like it's a hard pill to swallow.

            I would consider a downgrade, stereo speakers, worse battery life.
            No real improvements. The design is classy and ok but not gorgeous,..
            I only get better display and ready for, for those who appreciate.

            Thanks, I'll wait for next year edge series.
            OnePlus Nord 2 on the other hand improved and in my opinion is a much better choice overall.

              aknsreddy, 12 Sep 2021Crippled battery for what purpose? In india it's only 345 euros

                Bad battery life, 2 years updates support, GG3, no IP rating, no stereo speakers, plastic back lol, midrange cpu, simple OLED screen for 500 euro? A52s is better

                      Noone talking about 385PPI which is very low

                        Recent G series phone has far better Night images.. good job.

                          Kinda funny the old Edge+ is better and cheaper than this in my country (€549 for this vs €469 for the Edge+)

                              Another below average phone by Motorola and this is coming from a Motorola phone user.

                                      If it pricing same as oneplus nord definitely word for me to buying.
                                      Battery performance are not issue for me. Since now im using google pixel 2 still can go thru 24 hours with have more 20-30% battery left.

                                        they missed a great chance to make the rear cameras flush with the back by adding in a mm extra or two. Or at least some extra battery
