Moto G100 2022 Review - 399$ Flagship?

Review of the Moto G100 for the ridiculous low price of 399 on Motorola.com.

[@SATechCenterLosAngeles]

Very Underrated phone. Will this work on TMobile?🤔 Appreciate your in depth review.🙂👍

[@jarobetech703]

Thank you! I loved this phone ! I used it on AT&T with no issue but apparently it’s missing band 71 so while it will work on TMobile, it may not be the perfect signal wise in all areas.

Hello, how come the security uodate will not update? Because there is red next to it indicating there is an update available. Why wont my device update? Thanks! 👍🙏

[@ahslan18]

Thanks for the review. This phone definitely doesn't get the attention it deserves. Also, Moto isn't known for providing the best software support but considering the specs you're getting, this thing is a great deal. I don't mind the lcd screen and the single bottom firing speaker but it does annoy me that this device doesn't have band 71 for LTE nor n71 for 5G for T-Mobile 😭. I just don't get why they missed this. I've used a cheap Nord N200 that does have these bands and they make a pretty significant difference in terms of coverage and speed

[@jarobetech703]

I know it is a bummer for those on T-Mobile 😩 and the Moto Edge Plus that just came out won't have 5g support for At&t or Cricket , I have a review coming soon for it , I don't know why Moto is doing this with there phones it just seems odd. But I did really enjoy the Moto G100! It would just be nice if Motorola supported all the bands in all their phones for all service providers so nobody is left out .

What do you think of Motorola's "Ready For" desktop feature?

[@jarobetech703]

I love it! Very comparable to what Samsung offers with there phones.

[@stevepogue1124]

When using the video call function on Ready For, will the phone act as the camera while the display shows the other callers? If so, will the camera on the G100 track the subject? I've seen the Edge+ do this and I'm curious if the G100 can do this as well.

[@jarobetech703]

I think so but unfortunately I do not have the phone anymore i apologize 😩

[@Nikolqj]

Are the haptics on this phone good? and how do they compare to the ones on the poco x3 pro?

[@jarobetech703]

The haptics we're decent , I would say not as good as flagship phones though. And I'm not sure about how it compares to the Poco it's been a little while since I had that phone unfortunately.

[@Nikolqj]

@@jarobetech703 I have another question, are the haptics like the rest of the moto G devices or are they better on the G100?

[@jarobetech703]

@@Nikolqj I would say they were a little better than the cheaper moto g devices but not by a lot 👍

[@Native722]

Is the Motogo g200 is the predessor to this one?

[@jarobetech703]

I believe the Moto G200 is the successor to this phone and has much better specs and is newer 👍

[@AB-ll8so]

16:12 well...there is one reason for NOT getting this phone ;-) Xiaomi 11T - cheaper and way, way, wwaaaayyyy better ps.: - don't call 20W 'turbo charger'...just because Motorola is brainwashing their customers it doesn't make it right...

[@jarobetech703]

Agreed I miss using xioami phones, Cricket won't activate them anymore 😭 lol

[@AB-ll8so]

@@jarobetech703 too bad...Xioami is a beast... Motorola sends xx phones out and NOT...EVEN..ONE...makes any sense...G10, G20, G30, G50, G60, G100, G200, a couple of Edge, Power, Power lite, Power plus, E20, E40 etc. - and NO ONE MAKE ANY SENSE... charging times: (compared to others) ridiculous screen brightness: A JOKE! - have you seen brightness on all G models?? - you need to crank it up to about at least 75-80% in normal surroundings to be able to see anything sound: are you kidding me???? pricing: if you can get WAY MORE for LESS from the competition, not worth HALF of the price they're asking gorilla glass: yeah...3...on most phones...WOW!!! good SoC, plenty of RAM, 3,5 jack - it's 'useless' comparing to what you can get from the competition...

[@jarobetech703]

@@AB-ll8so I agree I absolutely loved all the Xiaomi phones I had, one of my favorites was the Redmi note 9 pro, phenomenal camera and macro camera with autofocus! I absolutely loved it and I got it for only 200 dollars brand new!

[@AB-ll8so]

@@jarobetech703 same applied to Huawei (before they got banned) - still some of the best screens and specs (their own CPU etc. were way better than what the rest was using). the 'perfect' (budget) one for me was and still is: Huawei P40 Lite...it's still way better then most other options two years later (UI, camera, screen, charging time, SoC, battery, price, U name it) but...no Google - no party...if you can't use banking or many other 'practical necessities' then it doesn't matter how good something is...

@@AB-ll8so yes! It's such a shame what happened with Huawei, fantastic phones , and there Honor budget phones were phenomenal! Such good prices 👏
