I bought a moto G power when they first came out. I thought the specs originally stated 4G/5G, will need to look at my print off again. Very satisfied either way. I work in national Emergency Communications & Preparedness. Set as far as capabilities! As compared to a I phone,this phone was 1/3 the cost direct from Motorola. And as a Veteran, I received it for less yet $$$. My wife as a student bought on right after me, and had a nice discount from Motorola.
