Motorola Moto G8 Plus smartphone review – Mobile phone with action cam

[Redaktion]

The Motorola Moto G8 Plus is a mid-range smartphone that wants to impress with its cameras in particular. Long battery life and a bright screen are other aspects that speak for the device, but there are also weak points. You can find out in this review whether it's good enough for a purchase recommendation.

Wide-angle rotated lens should definitely have had the ability to take landscape photos too. Definitely a missed opportunity. Maybe Moto G9 Plus will have it.

Also, I would take a notification LED over picking up and then the display turning on to let me know if there are any notifications.

I recently got a Lenovo K5 Pro which ironically is made for Lenovo by Motorola Mobility and has a nice big notification LED.

Id does not look like PWM, more like some noise. I do not see any visible curves. Can you confirm it has PWM ?

I want to buy a PWM-free phone, had the XIAOMI MI A1, which was great phone: no PWM, android one and 3.5mm jack.

The new smarphone have weird screens, there is just something weird about them. I had the MI A3 for 2 weeks, and my eyes got red and swollen, so I'am very cautious now about buying new phone.
