Abstract: Lenovo launched its new Moto G5 recently in Dubai at a price of AED 699. The smartphone comes in a single variant – it offers 3GB of RAM and 16GB of storage space, which is further expandable to up to 128GB using a micro SD slot.The new Moto G5 comes with...
Battery needs to be removed to access SIM slots, Limited storage, Loudspeaker is barely audible, Facebook Comments, ShareTweet
In sum, the Moto G5 is a budget phone that just works. Forget the iffy design elements and the slightly steep price tag of Rs 11,999 – if you want an affordable phone that's a reliable daily driver – this is your best bet. The only competition really is t...

The Moto G5 is the phone to get if you want an everyday phone for as little possible, but if you want higher-end features like NFC then go for the G5 Plus...
high quality sturdy metal case, user replaceable battery, dual-sim version available, current version of Android 7, fast WiFi, decent call quality, fingerprint reader, very bright high-contrast display, decent speaker, moderate power consumption
display suffers from slight blue tint, security patches not up to date, gets pretty warm, bad camera performance in low-light conditions, inaccurate color reproduction in photos
Lackluster design, No NFC, Poor sunlight visibility

Clean, intelligent interface, Premium design elements, Great screen, Value for money
Poor video audio recording, Cheap design elements, Low internal storage
The new Moto G5 stays true to the G family formula, focussing on aspects like design, battery, camera and at £169, affordability. Certain elements, like storage, fall short of the mark, but for the most part, the Moto G5 packs in plenty of character, func...
Lacks NFC (U.S. version), Subpar camera quality, Chrome trim cheapens the design
The Moto G5 Plus continues the tradition of what the Moto G line has always been. It's a good, inexpensive smartphone with a no frills approach. If that's all you need, that is exactly what the Moto G5 Plus will provide...
Abstract: I reviewed the lesser of the Moto G5's (the plus model, which has a stronger processor, slightly larger display and more RAM is limited to specific countries).Moto G5 is available from Bell Mobility, MTS, SaskTel, Videotron and Virgin Mobile for about $25...
