do not purchase this device, it has bluetooth issues, even after reset it has problems connecting to devices. i repeat, never for the love of god, purchase this device if you want to use any bluetooth device with it! it keeps either disconnecting your bluetooth devices or not showing them altogether. the worse phone i ever had, it's a shame, i used to like moto. will never buy one moto in my life!

Doesn't have VOLTE
For the price, I consider this phone a great value for money.
The phone is a good entry level budget phone. It has a descent quality front and back camera that works great in brightly lit conditions.
I did not experience any lag when browsing net and navigating the home screen. There are no advertising as found in Infinix, Itel and other garbage phones.
I use the phone mostly for browsing, calling, and taking pics/videos. The phone is not a gaming device.

I have a Motorola G8 which is OK for what I need to do with it. I live in the UK. Does anyone know if my phone will work in the USA. I am due to go there soon. I only need it to make one or two local calls when I am there.

I am familiar with Moto and the G8 is garbage. The WiFi signal is extremely bad, and the txt resolution is poor due to I guess what is a poor screen. I found myself using previous Moto G7 series such is my dissatisfaction. The G7 powers battery is far superior as is it's charge time. All in all it just feels less user friendly and awkward. The camera is the only positive thing I have to say.

That is because no Android smartphone after 2018-2019 can be considered "bad", but just "deceptively disappointing". And i don't have this phone to know wether it is or not, but i know this phone could've been a little, little bit cheaper because it appears to have 4 cameras on the back, but really, it has just 3. But out of these 3, only 2 are functionally useful. And having only 2 effecive cameras isn't bad, because there are phones out there that can take outstanding photos with only 1 sensor. The thing here is, because of this fake 4 cameras illusion, Motorola is able to inflate the final price of the product by a little bit.
And it's not only with Motorola, i can't find 1 single cheap phone that isn't plagued by this, or by a simillar effect.
At least, the Moto G8 Power actually has 4 real cameras, out of wich 3 are effective, and one of them is a telephoto camera with optical zoom, and it costs just a little bit more than the Moto G8.
About your stock camera experience, try Manual Camera DSLR app, see if you can capture in RAW format with this phone, and edit these RAW files in Adobe Lightroom. The result, depending if you know how much you must tweak the lights and the colors, can be amazing for such a cheap phone.
That's what i do in my Redmi 7, and even it's Snapdragon 632 with 3GB of RAM and heavy MIUI on the top can handle it preety well, so this phone's more powerful Snapdragon 665 with 4GB of RAM, and pure Android with no heavy whateverUI on top can handle it as well, while processing your photos faster.
