Moto G5s Plus
Gadgets
|November 2017
More and more, mid-range phones are starting to sport features similar to their high-end counterparts. Able to look and feel like high-end phones, it’s hard to resist the temptation of purchasing a decent specced phone that doesn’t leave your pockets entirely empty. Here, we take a look at how the Moto G5S stacks up in the arena of mid-ranged phones.
DESIGN
The G5s Plus is a mid-ranged phone that sports a high end phone form factor. Unlike its previous iteration, Moto has opted for a more elegant unibody metal construction—a wise design choice that enhances the phone’s premium feel. The metal backing envelopes around the phone, so all your hands will come in contact with is the metal and glass front. Apart from ditching the plastic, the phone also features a lightweight and slim design. Coming in at only 8 mm thin at 168 g, the phone is comfortable to grasp, even with one hand usage.
At the back of the phone is the Moto logo, situated at a slightly sunken portion of the metal. The formerly protruding round camera bump is thinner than the previous model, yet is still there; however, metal makes up for all the awkwardness. Also at the back are antenna lines and a mic hole for active noise cancellation. The metal material continues onto the device’s sides where the power and volume buttons sit at the right side of the phone. Due to the button placements, it’ll mean that your thumb will be responsible for adjusting the volume, waking the screen, and unlocking the phone via the fingerprint sensor. Since the power button is situated at the center of the right side, and the fingerprint sensor at the center of the chin, on an average one-handed grasp, all but the volume buttons are easily accessible. Located at bottom side of the G5s Plus is another microphone, a micro USB port, and speaker grilles.
At front we have the Corning Gorilla Glass 3 laminate that doubles as protection. Beneath the top laminate, over at the top bezel, is the 8 MP f./2.0 front facing camera, LED flash, the ambient light sensor, and the tacky moto text logo. On top of the logo, is the ear speaker. At the chin, is the fingerprint sensor.
