Moto G100: celular MAIS RÁPIDO da Motorola tem ÓTIMA BATERIA | Análise / Review By TudoCelular

Subtitled by Paulo Montenegro - @pmontenegroreal (Twitter) The Moto G100 is Motorola's latest bet in the advanced segment here in Brazil. It brings firepower of a top of the line but with other characteristics of an mid-range to guarantee a more affordable price. What do you lose to have a Snapdragon 870 and 12 GB of RAM without paying a fortune? That is what we will discover in this complete analysis of tudocelular. com. The Moto G100 sits between the Moto G 5G and the Edge series. It doesn't have the neat design of Motorola's most expensive curved screens, but it also doesn't have a simple plastic body like other middlemen.

Its design is reminiscent of the Moto G 5G Plus, both from the front and from the coast, including, both have the same size and weight. The G100 is a stretched device with a cinema standard screen. It has two holes in the upper left corner of the screen and has a cooktop-style camera at the rear. It arrived in two color options in the national market. In addition to this, which mixes blue with green and purple, there is a white option also with a chromatic effect.

As much as the G100 does not have such an innovative design, it ends up drawing attention by the color pattern. The classic Motorola logo continues to be present at the rear, but the biometric reader has moved to the right-side, integrated with the power button. He responds promptly to the slightest touch of the finger. You can configure to use some gestures when you double-tap the button. the G100 is very complete in terms of connections - it brings 6th generation wifi, Bluetooth 5.1, NFC, and support for 5G networks. The model is sold in two versions and the one we tested comes with the HDMI cable for you to connect your phone to the TV and use Ready for, a desktop mode similar to Samsung's DeX that I will detail later.

The cinema standard screen is 6.7 "with full HD Plus resolution, 90 Hz and HDR10 support. It is basically the same screen used on the moto G 5G Plus. The brightness level is decent but not so strong for good visibility in very sunny days. The contrast level is good enough to guarantee vibrant colors and to avoid that grayish black tone, common in cell phones with LCD screen. HDR content on YouTube push the screen a little more but it is still below that we usually see it on top of the line devices.

This is where the G100 starts showing where Motorola saved to reduce the cost of the device. Another cutoff point was the sound part - the Edge line has two sound outputs but on the G100 we only have one next to the USB port. The lack of stereo sound compromises immersion in films, which is a shame, even more so in a cell phone with a cinema standard screen. The sound power could be better and the audio delivered is not the most balanced. Mids are lacking and the treble is very evident, and this is good for videos, as it highlights the voices but it is bad for movies and music The Moto G100 is the first with Snapdragon 870 to arrive in Brazil.

It is above the Snapdragon 865 Plus, which was the most advanced of 2020, however, it is below the Snapdragon 888, which equips the most advanced phones of 2021. This is the fastest Motorola phone we have ever tested overcoming the Edge Plus on our speed test focused on multitasking. Incidentally, we cannot forget the fact that Motorola's novelty has 12 GB of RAM, more than the Galaxy S21 and S21 Plus have in Brazil. In benchmarks we have high numbers, as expected. It outperforms the Edge Plus Snapdragon 865 in some tests but ends up a little below in others.

And that shouldn't happen, but it should probably be more Motorola's fault than the hardware itself. The G100 ran all the games we tested without gagging, some at the maximum speed that the 90 Hz screen supports and others with fluidity at 60 fps - we tested the Genshin Impact and, although the meter shows 90 Hz on the screen, it was noticeable that it did not delivered impeccable fluidity during the game. It is not even the fault of the device, since this game is very heavy and gives work to any Android. Large 90 Hz screen and 5,000 mAh battery could generate a bit of concern but this is where the Snapdragon 870 stands out the most - not only is it a powerful chip, but it also has low power consumption. The Moto G100 may not be the king in autonomy among all Motorola phones we've tested but it is among those who spend the most time away from the outlets.

You will be able to get battery for more than one day even using the screen in automatic mode that switches between 60 and 90 Hz depending on the content. In lighter use, with no games or even locking the screen in 60 Hz mode, you will easily have a battery for two days. Recharge time has never been Motorola's forte, no matter how much the brand makes the biggest splash about its Turbo Power charger. Edge Plus, for example, takes almost three hours to charge but the Moto G100 is faster and goes from 0 to 100% in less than two hours. With a quick charge of 15 minutes you will have 22% of battery, reaching 40% after half an hour.

The Moto G100 comes out of the box with Android 11 and should only receive an Android update, unlike other brands like Samsung that promise to bring three little robot accidents. It is disappointing to see that Motorola does not attach so much importance to support and even refuses to deliver monthly security updates. The software comes with the same features and gestures that you have seen in other Motorola ones such as turning on the flashlight when shaking the phone or opening the camera when turning the device around, so let's focus on what's really new: the Ready For. This is a new Motorola platform that was also launched for Edge Plus along with Android 11. It resembles a lot and Samsung DeX, which was inspired by the Motorola Atrix desktop mode, launched a decade ago.

What Ready For does is turn your phone into a computer so that it can be plugged into a large screen, such as a TV or monitor. The G100 has a Dock for easy connection and the most complete version on sale in Brazil comes with an HDMI cable but you can buy the accessories separately. If your monitor has a USB-C port, you can use a USB cable to connect the phone and use Ready For without needing the accessory with an HDMI connection. In this mode it is possible to connect a keyboard and mouse to the monitor as well as to connect the peripherals to the G100 via Bluetooth. If you don't have a mouse nearby, you can use the phone's screen as a trackpad but it would be interesting to have an adapter included in the box to connect wired mouse and keyboard to the phone.

Another feature of Ready For is that it allows you to use the cameras for video calls on your PC. It is also possible to turn your phone into a gaming machine and take advantage of a larger screen. We tested it with the Xbox controller and it worked on some games but it was not possible to map the buttons on PUBG, for example. With the G100 it is also possible to turn simple TVs into Smart TVs to enjoy streaming services, for example. It may seem that the G100 has 4 cameras at the rear but it only has three, with the fourth hole dedicated to the ToF sensor.

The main camera of 64 MP has OmniVision sensor, which compresses four pixels in one as is common in cell phones with the same resolution. The secondary has an ultra-wide lens and autofocus, and finally, there is a dedicated one for blurring the scene. The Moto G100 will not win you over the cameras but it will not be what will make you give up the device entirely. The photos present good sharpness and colors close to reality in well-lit places, although it is possible to notice a little grainy in parts of the images with solid colors. The Ultra Wide camera does a good job of photographing wider scenarios.

It does not lose as much sharpness compared to the main camera and records colors with almost the same tone it only disappoints even in places with poor light. The photos get darker and blurry, looking like they were taken by an entry phone, in fact, the Moto G100 is not a device suitable for shooting at night - the grain problem is even more critical, the sharpness is compromised and the textures lose totally the quality. Night mode doesn't help that much. He can even highlight some points of the photos but the dark areas are still too dark. The G100 does not have a dedicated macro camera but you can take advantage of the Ultra Wide auto focus and get very close to what you want to photograph, we even compared it with the G 5G bike and noticed better colors and a little more detail in this new model from Motorola.

The blur camera does a good job in simple scenarios but in some cases it has more errors than other phones without a dedicated camera for portrait mode. At the front we have two cameras, the main one being 16 MP, which also compresses 4 pixels in 1, and an Ultra Wide for photos with the whole crowd. The main camera records good selfies in favorable light conditions, while the secondary camera records darker pictures with less sharpness and slightly distorted colors - this only gets worse in darker places. The blurring made by software has flaws and the effect is also artificial. The Moto G100 records videos at 6K at 30 FPS, but if you want videos with less shake you will have to reduce the resolution to 4K.

Ultra-wide only shoots in Full HD and does not have stabilization. The shooting quality with the G100 is good and the audio capture does not disappoint, it is even possible to shoot with the rear and front cameras at the same time. However, the frontal suffers a lot in darker places. Were you disappointed with the Moto G100 cameras? The Galaxy S20 FE would be the best alternative for those who care a lot about the quality of photos and videos, on the other hand, you will have a slower cell phone with a battery that lasts much less. Compared to the Moto G 5G, the difference is notable, perhaps not so much in camera, but in the rest of the set.

Now, if you really want a Motorola phone that is top of the line in everything and not just the chipset, Edge Plus is still the best choice. It was a little slower in our multi-tasking speed test and its battery yielded less but pays off for having a better multimedia experience and superior camera. The Moto G100 is a phone that wants to do a lot but it only does the basics well. It is the fastest Motorola we have tested and its battery lasts a long time. Its screen could have a high brightness, stereo sound was lacking, a telephoto camera would be more useful than the blurring camera and the front secondary camera is almost totally unnecessary.

The highlight here is Ready For, which turns the phone into a PC or even an old TV into Smart TV. If you don't care so much about the camera, then the Moto G100 will please you. He got it for R $ 4,000 and its price is already falling. Considering that any intermediary with weak hardware breaks the barrier of R $ 3,000 nowadays, we can say that the novelty of Motorola has a "fair price" of launch, the problem is that the Galaxy S20 FE may end up being a more interesting option for some users. And as always, the links below lead to the best prices on the Moto G100 and all other models mentioned in this review.

And we also want to know your opinion about the new Motorola device, do you think this set offered by the Moto G100 is a good size or did you miss something? Comment there! I'll stick around, a big hug and see you next time.
