Sounds great, always enjoyed the motorola G series. My G31 battery is falling off a cliff too, perhaps an upgrade is due. May well be the last 3.5mm phone from motorola as the last moto G announced didn't have one!
as the last moto G announced didn’t have one!
Yes, that was really a bummer. That G85 could have been the one mid-range phone with a jack people were waiting for.
Don't trust Notebook check
Why? They have very in-depth reviews. Were there some controversy recently?
They spread misinformation
Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVjhNjClHqI
Maybe I'm being a bit harsh but I don't like sites that publish before fact checking
I won't watch that neckbeard's video, only watched the first few minutes. Sorry it's very annoying.
In the problematic article everything is in conditional tense: would/could/theoretically. Yes, it's a clickbait shitty "article", but if you read carefully, nothing is presented as a fact, pure speculation, even the title is "would kill kernel-level anti-cheat" not "will kill". There was nothing to fact check in that article because it never contained any facts.
And that's the news section not the in-house reviews. It's terrible that current tech journalism is this clickbaity, but your comment on an unrelated, and very in depth review is just spreading FUD. If you would comment this on a Notebookcheck news it would be valid criticism.
Are they bad? I never noticed anything unreliable in their reviews, but curious now
