About this deal

The phone has a 16MP f/2.0 main camera, which is joined by two 2MP f/2.4 snappers, one macro and one depth-sensing. We’d actually recommend avoiding using these latter cameras, as we’ll explain in a second, so for all intents and purposes there’s only one rear camera here you’ll be using frequently, the main one. One of the main characteristics of the cameras is their image resolution. It states the number of pixels on the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the image, which can also be shown in megapixels that indicate the approximate number of pixels in millions. On a more positive note, I was relatively impressed with portrait mode on the G8 Power Lite; the practical effect neatly cuts around the subject for the eye-popping bokeh effect. The Moto G8 is also a better all-around performer, not that this comes as any surprise since it’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665. The Moto G8 Power Lite, meanwhile, is saddled with a Mediatek MT6765 Helio P35 chipset that delivered middling results in our performance tests. When you receive unwanted notifications from an app, touch & hold the notification, then touch Turn off notifications.

Available user storage is less due to preloaded software, and is subject to change without notice due to software updates. One of the main characteristics of the display is its type/technology, on which depends its performance. moto g8 power lite - android smartphone | Motorola WE". www.motorola.com/we .

[ citation needed] Specifications [ edit ] We keep repeating it; we always find the name 'Lite' somewhat unfortunate. And the addition of 'Power' only makes it more confusing. Because is it powerful or is it a lightweight? It's up to us to explain it properly. The name Power is a reference to the built-in MediaTek helio P35 processor. Altho it is a processor consisting of eight cores, it is not a very powerful chip. And with that, Motorola immediately undermines its own marketing storey. Because why 'powerful'? Of course everything is relative and you don't pay a lot for the G8 Power Lite, but call it G8 Lite. Long battery life Scrolling through apps can be a little juddery, but I didn’t find that apps would shutdown on me, and limited multi-tasking didn’t present any major problems either. But games had to be played on low graphics settings, so if you’re a keen gamer you might want to shell out a bit more a more capable handset. Motorola G8 Power Lite Battery life

The macro camera, as is the case with most macro snappers you find on smartphones, took pictures that weren’t as good as those taken with the main camera. In terms of video recording, you can shoot in 1080p despite not being able to view it on the phone. There’s no option to change the frame rate, so we’d imagine it sits at a baseline 30fps, and you don’t get any of the various modes available on some other handsets, such as ‘short video’ or slow motion. Porter, Jon (8 November 2019). "Motorola Moto G8 Plus review: a battery boost for the budget king". The Verge . Retrieved 20 January 2020. Still, this is the kind of display you’d expect to find on a phone at this price point, and it’s certainly not terrible. It’s bright, and while colors don’t exactly ‘pop’, they’re not too dark or grimy either. The display is LCD, which means it has a rather low contrast rate compared to the more common OLED screens, and this can be noticeable when you’re watching movies or playing games. The phone’s availability is a bit up the air, however. While you can buy it in the UK now, there’s no word on a US release, and an Australian release may not happen at all, since the company only seems to bring a random smattering of its devices to that country.

In terms of real world usage, I found that the battery dropped down to 95% from full after one hour of video streaming, and after three hours it had dropped down to 81%. That’s a good record, but given the massive battery combined with the undemanding display, I might have expected an even better performance; bear in mind that the G8 Power was down to 97% after an hour of video streaming. Information about the process technology used in manufacturing the chip. The value in nanometers represents half the distance between elements that make up the CPU.

The Moto G8 Power Lite’s screen has a 20:9 aspect ratio, which means it’s relatively tall and thin compared to other devices. This contributes to the fact that, as mentioned it can be a little unwieldy in the hand, but it does mean you can see more content on-screen. We found that with typical use – listening to music, scrolling through social media, and snapping the odd picture – the G8 Power Lite would last us two days. Intensive tasks will tax the phone of course, but the G8 Power Lite should last longer than the competition when performing comparable tasks.The aperture (f-stop number) indicates the size of the lens diaphragm opening, which controls the amount of light reaching the image sensor. The lower the f-stop number, the larger the diaphragm opening is, hence, the more light reaches the sensor. Usually, the f-stop number specified is the one that corresponds to the maximum possible diaphragm opening. The Moto G8’s camera software is straightforward and easy to use. There are four main modes of shooting: standard, bokeh, macro and panorama. Besides that, you’ve also got a beautifying slider – presumably for blurring out undesired details on selfies – and the HDR toggle. Moto G8 (stylized by Motorola as moto g⁸) is a series of Android smartphones developed by Motorola Mobility, a subsidiary of Lenovo. It is the eighth generation of the Moto G family. The G8 Play and G8 Plus were first released in October 2019, [1] only 8 months after the previous generation. Other variants were released in March and April 2020. Motorola has been a paragon of top-notch budget smartphones in recent years, and it continues to crank them out at record pace. Despite the slight image shift following the launch of the high-priced Motorola Razr and upcoming Moto Edge, Motorola is still all about affordability, and few phones embody that better than the new Moto G8 Power Lite.
