Motorola is a piece of Shit!

Low key, i frickin love the Motorola phones gestures, such a nice feature. I miss that on other phones.

Ahhh yes one of the 200 or so mid range phones Motorola will send out in 2023! Still rockin' my Moto Edge Plus 2022 & waiting on Android 13. Motorola said "early 2023" for the update. Mid March is not early 2023! But still love the phone. Thanks Spurty!

All day battery should be the minimum acceptable for any phone in 2023.

Just bought one of these. Needed a new phone and on a bit of a budget. I'd have liked a OLED screen but it's not a deal breaker. So far for the money I think it's pretty good, 256gb storage no need for an SD card then. I've not noticed any issues with it's speed, having the 120hz screen, everything seems to be very smooth. I don't play games on my phone so that's not an issue. But for general use, it's one of the best phones I've had. Battery life is good, my previous phone was a Samsung M51 with a 7000mah battery, I was getting 3-4 days. This one I charged it Sunday evening, it's had plenty of use, streaming, surfing the web, twitter etc. and now Wednesday afternoon still got 26% left. Not used the camera much, better in good light, OK at night with night mode but definitely have to hold it quite still. For £269 I think it's pretty good.

Mint phone the G73 I bought one a couple of weeks ago. Motorola phones are really under rated Everyone is either Samsung or Apple

Please stop pushing OLED for every device! Many of us cannot use OLED due to the stroboscopic effect it creates.

Picked up one of these a week ago, and so far it's been fine. I needed something budget with lots of storage (without having to put an SD card in) and a 3.5mm jack for plugging into a sound desk without tying up the charging port (and I hate jacks on the top of phones, so this is perfect). Screen scrolling is smooth, touch response is good and battery life is decent. I run stuff that keeps screen on with static display elements, so an ips panel means I don't need to worry about burn-in. Pretty happy about this as a replacement for my bricked Nokia 5.3 (thanks hmd for screwing up the Android 12 update 🙄). Charging rate topping out at 30w isn't that big of a deal - all these super fast rates will ultimately have an effect on battery degradation - that's just physics. Overall is recommend this phone. Time will tell on the longevity of updates, but it's a budget device. If they sell sufficient numbers then maybe there's more impetus to keep it updated.

Outstanding review on point of the camera app & performance. The G73 going to my 4th Motorola after G5, G7 play & G32. Good value for money compromising camera. Tend to be slower after 1 or 2 years.

Nice video as usually thanks. Just wonder why Motorola never released moto g72 here in UK. I thought its realy decent phone

Paint you black and give you a little more hair, something about those selfies reminds me about Craig's David. But seriously Motorola should ship some of its products to where I live, I really like how the phone looks, sexy how they play with the colour. And here I was think that a phone had to be Chinese in order to be generously loaded but alas here is Motorola with a case, SD slot , a charger, and even a jack, heck! Good stuff!

Found an unexpected big negative of this phone! Might possibly be the case with other Motorola phones too? All the audio recording, be it on videos, or through the voice recorder app, is subject to some noise suppression or filtering, which is hardwired into the software and cannot be removed! It's so frustrating, every video I've taken in the last week of bands I've seen ruins the audio quality, as the software I guess is filtering for human voices and trying to cancel out all other sounds, like typical stock noise suppression settings on Zoom/Skype etc. Really appreciate this channel's reviews, they are so thorough and clear, but would really make a difference in future if you can comment on the audio capture from of the phone's microphone!

But my main problem was with the A54 display, in a strange way it gave me headache and eye pain, after searching the internet I found out that Motorola G73 is the best mid-range phone with IPS screen. I got the 256/8 version for $155 and I am very happy with this phone! High-quality IPS screen that has not a problem outside, light and comfortable, light and fast user interface, very loud stereo speakers, very good battery, 30W charger in the box + memory card port + headphone jack. I hope Motorola continue to produce phones with IPS panel.

In Geekbench D930 is slightly better but loses in everything else like gaming, photos, AnTuTu, and especially in video recording!!! D900 is capable of 4K recording and D930 IS NOT it records videos in max 1080p.

A really useful review would examine reasons for not buying the product. The sound is described as "tinny" but even this is glossed over - kind of "not to worry, it'll be fine" approach. Sorry, it won't be fine. The sound shouldn't be "tinny". So what else is there about this phone that isn't quite right? That's what we need to know.
