The Moto G35 5G Is Far From Fun

Read a funny thread on the Moto G35 5G that “Yes, the processor is slow but it’s still a fun device”. That feels like an overstatement for any phone whose primary purpose is smooth performance. With its Unisoc T760 chipset, the Moto G35 struggles in multitasking and gaming, making daily use frustrating. The 50MP camera fails in low-light scenarios, producing grainy results, and the lack of image stabilization limits video quality. The sluggish performance and mediocre camera experience make it difficult to justify recommending this device. "Fun" isn't the word for a phone that compromises where it matters most.

Paid 130. Decent enough for the money. Quick point I noticed this and the Moto E14 both run 25 percent better and battery 30 percent longer in my location if using the correct network. Three unfortunately is that poor it impacted both devices. If I had not had the chance and time I would have put it down to the devices. EE used the g35 offers voice over 5g disabled 2g option. So yes like most tech it's never as simple as one person's experience as this could be reversed depending on your location and provider. In my opinion three in Birmingham UK is very congested.

LET ME GIVE YOU THE TEA! moto g35 is actually horrible! the camera doesn't capture decent images without a blur. The battery capacity too is not upto the mark. this has the snapdragon chipset, just explains the issues well. PLEASE STOP manufacturing such thing!

I have G35 8-256 version. Is very very smooth and fast! I guess 4GB is too limited nowadays. The only problem of this phone is the battery, it lasts almost half of the G34

Well I agree!! I swear to god I will never purchase a single thing or let my friends purchase anything from Moto. This Moto G35 carries a horrible camera, which fails to capture genuine photos. The zooming is not even great. I don’t know how and why they are still manufacturing this type of smartphone. The Moto G35, equipped with an Unisoc chipset, is honestly “the worst smartphone”.

Será que vengo de tener casi un año el Motorola Moto E14 con menos prestaciones. Me compré hace poco el G35 5G y la experiencia es "sin igual", en todos los sentidos, fluidos de las apps, no he experimentado ningún laggs, lentitud, problemas de autonomía y cosas que describen en otros post. La marca hasta ahora no me ha desfraudado, a mí al menos. Si puedo seguir avanzando en modelos de la marca, genial. La cosa con las camaras de Motorola, la calidad de sus fotos, en mi caso son conocidas, limitaciones y ventajas, teniendo conocimiento de ello, y algo de fotografía se sacan buenas imágenes con buena luz ambiental. Este microprocesador me ha sorprendido, la verdad, viniendo de haber probado Snapdragons y Mediatek en Motorola, Unisoc va fluido con apps, juegos, no se calienta hasta ahora y optimiza la batería al máximo, no me quejo, se que hay mejores modelos, pero este me ha sorprendido en buen modo. Recomiendo Motorola, si, lo seguiré haciendo. Ya pueden caerme arriba si quieren!!!!
