My G5S screen just separated from the body of the phone and is bulging outwards and won't go back down. The phone still works well though besides that.

            It now looks like a common problem. Phone's VoLTE mode never worked with Airtel. Phone doesn't have even a basic compass sensor. Motorola I loved is dead probably with the changeover. I am pretty much disappointed with present Motorola Quality. Can't trust it anymore.

              I got the job recently, got enough money to buy a new phone, so this Moto G5s plus that I currently have can be my second phone. Finally XD. My father gave me this phone. It has a black hole now on the screen. The only thing I like about this phone, well... Idk, NFC maybe? So many issues when opening apps too. The battery, well, don't use it when it's below 20% or it will drop quickly. I believe other Motorola phones have that issue as well.

                  Worst mobile company never gonna again buy Motorola phones
                  Always keeps laging
                  Never installs any app
                  Not a single app works properly

                  My almost 7-8 years old Gionee a1 plus still works properly and better than moto g5s plus(3 years old)


                  My opinion:
                  Don't waste your precious money in buying this shit company mobiles rather go to other better companies

                                Still works flawlessly. Installed a bunch of different custom ROMs on it these last few years since Lenovo left it behind. Now in October 2022 I just installed Arrow OS, based on Android 11, security level September 2022. Skipped Gapps completely, installed Microg as a Magisk module. Works like a charm, this is one fast machine now and I read somewhere that there will be a version based on Android 12 coming as well, also a German guy is releasing his own versions of Arrow OS with the latest security patches so this phone is gonna see some action for quite some time still. I like this phone better than my Samsung S20 FE, which is a bloatware horrorshow.
