Coming from a Moto One 5g UW, this is a definite upgrade. The former phone was fragile, this is not. I do have issues with some cables staying in the port, but newer cables seem to ignore the issue. It's nice to have the option for wired headphones or a headset. I don't think I'm the right customer for everything having an LLM AI assistant in every app, as I don't use them. Two weeks in and I have mostly disabled every AI assistant. I wish they were opt-in, rather than opt-out by default. Very glad I got the device prior to the artificial RAM-pocalypse. Definitely would have liked larger internal storage, and for a second tray for the removable chip.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had the 2023,2024,and 2025. I must. Say the first problem with all 3 is the low battery warning that you only get at 10%. I forget or something and bye bye off the phone goes. There should be a warning about 2 minutes before it shuts off to leave time to plug it in. Next issue is consistency of the phone staying the way I have it all 3 demonstrate changes to things without warning., meaning apps moving around or being added from I would assume updates. The 2023 the screen seemed to be the most durable compared to the screen the 24,25 has I've dropped it hundred s of times and the only reason I actually ended up having a problem is because I stepped on it and it cracked inone place but from that point on was compromised . Considering the damage it did sustain I was shocked when I went somewhere one day .the phone was absolutely fine when I left 10 minutes later I grabbed it to use it and nothing it was gone .I smacked it a couple of times and the rainbow screen appeared. The 24 seems to have stronger programming. It's speed and reliability was much better out of the 3. This 25 I have right now I don't know it was incredibly difficult to program my old data the phones don't like to sync with any of the typical apps I had to program it 3 time to get all my data with the proper progression of apps . So pay close attention to the prompts the first time the phone is powered up it is the 3rd thing that comes up. Transfer data .this is the only place and way to do it. That's all I have to say for now.

I just received this phone yesterday, and I'm already disappointed. It comes with a charging cable but no charging cube. I was able to charge it on my wireless charger yesterday, but when I tried today, the screen flashes and the battery is draining instead of charging. I had to go buy the charging cube and it's charging very slowly. I wasn't expecting a brand new phone to malfunction so quickly.

I switched from the moto edge 2024, and overall I really like it. It has a better screen, expandable storage, earphone jack, easier to hold and a flat screen (not curved). It is a thick phone and a little bit heavy but overall it seems to be a quality phone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My issue is not with the phone itself. Seems perfectly fine so far. It does what a phone is supposed to do and at a reasonable price. My problem is with Motorola's marketing. I'm sure this is the way of the world these days but I have never before bought a phone without a charger. It does have a cable with C connectors on each end which was useless to me. I had another charger that will eventually get the job done. I ordered a wireless charger which actually requires a charger for the charger. It came without requisite charger or any kind of cable. Also ordered the 68W high speed charger which after rereading the fine print ALSO COMES WITHOUT THE CABLE. Requires a special cable ordered separately. So as of now I have useless cable that doesn't connect anything, a wireless charger that it a paperweight and waiting on my high speed charger which will also be of no use until I buy another cable. Gee guys can you please come up with a way to make buying a phone just a little more complicated?

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Woodstock. We’re glad to hear that your phone is performing well and meeting your expectations. We understand your frustration regarding the charging accessories. Recent changes to our packaging are part of our efforts to reduce electronic waste, which is why chargers are sold separately.
