When was g6 released

Motorola finally announced the Moto G6 — the successor to the Moto G5, our favorite mid-range device — on Thursday during an event in Brazil. Every time I check out a new Moto G smartphone, I question why I pay so much for the high-end flagships. When it boils down to it, Motorola's "G" series smartphones do everything I need a smartphone to do for a fraction of the price I usually pay for a new smartphone.

Usually, there are tell-tale design elements that Moto G devices are in the "mid-range" of the smartphone spectrum, like a plastic back. But Motorola is blurring the line between mid-range and high-end quite considerably with the Moto G6's design. At that price, no one should expect the ultra-narrow bezels and curved displays we're seeing in the high-end flagship devices. One thing the Moto G6 has that you'll usually find on high-end Android devices is a 5. It's a nice touch, as it lets you see a little bit more of your apps than the standard displays on smartphones from and before.

And the display has a p resolution, which anyone can be happy with. The Moto G6's wide fingerprint sensor can also be used with swipe gestures — the same Android navigation buttons and actions you usually see at the bottom of the screen. Swipe right on the fingerprint sensor to get your recently-opened apps, press it to go home, and swipe left on it to go back. It's a nice touch that lets you hide the Android notification buttons so they get out of the way of your apps and content on the screen.

I'm partial to smartphones that run clean versions of Android. There's little bloatware and extra design elements, and the Moto G6 ran Android 8.

Kavitha Saravankumar Feb 18, on Gadgets Recommends. Must buy! G6 Review. Camera is fine in closer pictures. It supports it's own earphone only. Glass body looks decent. Gestures are fine. FaceID works in fine light. Type C charger and Turbo makes it brilliant. Perfect size, classy look and Moto.

Perfect Size, a class in look and easy to hold and operate from one hand, a better camera, good sound with dolby audio, fast charging. Really good phone. Weight: g Dimensions: Both the design and display have been dramatically improved over the Moto G5S from The stretched out aspect ratio of the display does make the G6 feel like a notable upgrade over the Moto G phones of the past, as it allows the phone to have a slightly larger display without taking the dimensions of the phone itself into phablet territory.

The G6 is made with 3D glass, so the back looks shiny and premium, although it does pick up fingerprints rather easily. The sensor is easy it hit, and we found that it worked efficiently.
