Reviews for the Motorola Moto G17
Source: Expert Reviews
I really wanted to rate this one star, just on principle. It’s an insultingly mediocre offering from one of the most established brands in the business who really should know better. But my cooler head prevailed and I landed on two stars – for all of its many faults, the Moto G17 functions as a phone, has okay battery life, a serviceable display and takes reasonable pictures with the main lens. It is an exercise in achieving the absolute bare minimum. The complete lack of OS updates is enough by itself for me to recommend you avoid this phone like the plague but the soft 60Hz display, sluggish performance and mediocre cameras are further nails in a well-deserved coffin. Your money is better spent on the Motorola Moto G56 or, if you’re open to a refurbished phone, the Google Pixel 7 – both are far better value for this price.
