Design
The smartphone has a modern look with a glass-covered front. The structure of the material is such that it creates horizontal reflective lines. This is definitely a plus point. You should know that the Motorola G8 Power is heavy. Its weight contributes to the smartphone lying comfortably in the hand and creates a feeling of reliability. In the kit, the manufacturer has provided a transparent silicone case, which will slightly harm the beauty of the model, but it will be more protective.
Motorola G8 Power is not afraid of splashing water.
Display
The large screen of the Motorola G8 Power occupies 88% of the front of the device. The display is made using IPS technology with FullHD+ resolution (2300x1080). Pixel density per inch - 399. Aspect ratio - 19:9.
The brightness is at a very high level. In sunny weather you can easily read from the screen. Good quality of content display is achieved by minimizing the backlight indicator. The viewing angles are large. All this speaks for one thing - even the most demanding users will be satisfied with the Motorola G8 Power display.
Performance
The smartphone is based on an 8-core Snapdragon 665 processor and 4 GB of RAM. The storage provides 64 GB of space with the option to expand using a microSD card. It should be noted that the card slot is hybrid, i.e. either use 2 SIM cards at the same time or one SIM card and a memory card up to 512 GB.
Cameras
The cameras in the Motorola G8 Power are plenty enough. The manufacturer has placed a four-lens system and flash on the rear panel. The main camera has a resolution of 16 MP,
with f/1.7. We also see an 8 MP telephoto lens with double zoom and f/2.2. The wide-angle lens is 8 MP with f/2.2, and the macro lens is 2 MP with f/2.2.
The wide-angle lens is capable of capturing images 118 degrees wide, which is useful for capturing architecture or landscapes. The telephoto lens does its job not badly - double zooming while not sacrificing on quality and detail.
The selfie camera is rich in automatic beautification modes. You can control their intensity from the settings. There is also a portrait mode with the ability to change the strength of background blur and effects.
The front camera shots are nice and detailed. G8 Power allows you to shoot video
HD, Full HD at 60 frames per second and 4K Ultra HD using the base and wide-angle lenses. Good news is the option to record slow motion video at 120 and 240 frames per second. On the plus side comes Motorola's added digital image stabilization.
Autonomous operation
The Moto G8 Power impresses with plenty of charge. The 5000 mAh battery capacity smartphone is designed to provide the user with long hours of operation without the need to recharge. The charge recovery itself is fast. In the package we get an 18 W device, which can raise the indicator from 0 to 100% in just 2.5 hours. 15 minutes of charging guarantee 13-15% charge.
