This phone was an interim device that I owned alongside my iPhone 16e and ultimately replaced it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For most people this would be an excellent phone, and for the price it can be had ~\u00a3150 it represents excellent value for money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has decent specs; Snapdragon 6 gen 3, 8GB RAM, 256GB storage with SD expansion, very good quality LCD screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Realistically I should’ve kept this phone, however at the time I was going through a phase of mobile emulation and this was struggling with some of the PS2 and Gamecube titles I was trying to throw at it. I purchased it 2nd hand, and sold it for exactly the same money I purchased it for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This one stands out from the rest of the Motorola range in that they’ve actually given it a long support window for OS and security updates. They’ve removed the OS update promise from their site now but it was originally 5 years, and they’re still advertising 6 years of security updates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Realistically I should’ve kept it, but I didn’t and now own the Oneplus 13 which I purchased solely for it’s Snapdragon 8 Elite. If we go back 3 devices we’ll see that I already had a device with this chipset in the S25…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m glad I document all of this, because it really does expose the problem I have with constant need for new and shiny, and the self justifications that go along with it. I’ve often suspected I have mild undiagnosed autism, which is backed up by the fact my mother, father and 2 brothers both have it. Both of my brothers also have ADHD, which I suspect I have too. I’d say my list of phones owned over the last 5 years probably confirms that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
