  • I got a G84 for $245 from JB Hifi last night. Talked to the online chat but only got $5 off. I then had a $50 coupon from the 3G trade in.

  • How's the Motorola's Android interface compare to Samsung's? I'm looking for a replacement phone for the old man's Samsung A20 but he may get frustrated with it if it's too different.

      It is quite different Moto UI is close to stock Android UI like the pixels but with couple of extra features on top. Samsung's One UI is an all together different beast like Xiaomi's MIUI which is also a completely custom UI. In short your dad might find it a bit too different to his liking. He should get used to it in a couple of weeks though.

      After the Android 14 update I can't get the G54 to have the back button on the right which is a bit of an annoyance for my dad who was using a Samsung before.

      • +2

        I searched around the other day and it seems it can't be changed now :(

      • Frustrating when they make these changes. Not sure how to help with that directly but maybe he could try gesture navigation instead.

        Didn't take long to get used to it and it's hard to go back to buttons now. One annoyance though is when trying to crop pictures from the edge, need to go really slow so it doesn't go back instead of reducing the frame.

    HODL if you are an opportunistic buyer as the G85 has been launched. Otherwise get this one if you absolutely need it, this is still a decent price.

  • No esim for g84 is deal breaker

  • +4

    I have both the G54 and G84 phones in hand. Their overall performance is quite similar, as indicated by their identical AnTuTu scores. The main difference is that the G84 has an OLED screen, which I find more comfortable.

    • So true. That OLED gets so bright that in outdoor one doesn't' struggle looking at the screen .

      • +1

        what about darkness, e.g using the screen in the dark, does it go dark enough or burn your eye balls after 3 mins?

  • Can either phone do USBC > HDMI?

    Thought of sharing with y'all!
    I bought G84 from them and can confirm that it's dual sim with the option to expand memory up to 1TB. Currently using 512GB Samsung evo plus micro SD card bought from Amazon for $32.
    I can also confirm that I'm using telstra sim card and having no issues in calls or mobile Internet. Earlier was using boost. Same no issues whatsoever. Getting 5G pretty much everywhere. Even while travelling in Vline in Melbourne.
    G84 also has an option to double your RAM to 24 GB. It's called RAM boost.
    It also has Dolby Atmos and Spatial audio which makes a difference if turned OFF.
    Also after activating developer option, I've disabled all apps animations to NONE. So it's pretty fast in opening apps and doesn't lag anywhere. It's doesn't have the best processor that's why disabled all animations.
    I hope this will clear few doubts of yours.
    Have a good weekend!

      I am happy, thanks

      I think to double your RAM you'd need to download some.

    Mobileciti just now confirmed the g84 does not have band 28 . Awaiting further coms re the 54 and all motorola versions

  • via ebay

  • I wonder if OW price beat this.

    • No, it uses a coupon code

    Not sure if many people have tried Smart Connect (Ready For) connecting their Motorola phone to a PC.
    It's pretty cool I think.
    Can read about it here;
    https://motorolanews.com/smart-connect/
    and software here;
    https://en-au.support.motorola.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1…

    Can use your phone as a webcam, stream the apps onto PC, control it etc, transfer files and more.

    Wasn't really advertised but I got a pop up message.

    I connected a PS4 controller via bluetooth with the phone too, the PS4 touch pad was controlling a mouse on the phone.. Retro games were much better with the controller.

    • Are there any software to sync and backup the Motorola g84 locally to a pc?

      • I am not seeing it, just seeing the backup to Google cloud.
        They want your data.

  • Real shame about the lens delamination issue. Makes it a no go for me.

    • Is this an issue with standard G54 we have in Australia or just the G54 Power available in India?

      All the lens coating issue posts I read seem to be from India. A lot of the posts just say G54 and doesn't differentiate between the normal and the power version. Is the normal version even available in India?

  • Not much of an upgrade from g82, bought for $200, jbhi fi deal 2 years ago. I'll pass..

  • My partner has this phone and she has major issues with notifications, just not getting them for certain apps and it's a known issue for Motorola that they are "working" on but it's been months with no resolve. It's made her actually hate the phone. I have personally tried everything to resolve it but nothing works. There are several threads about it on the Lenovo website and reddit. Because of this reason alone I would not recommend this phone.

    • G84 or g54?

      • G84, we use messenger to chat, so if I send a bunch of messages, I'll prank call her so she's getting some type of notification. I am well versed with Android and the battery and app restrictions for apps that cause no or late notifications as I have a pixel 7 pro since launch and these restrictions were introduced with the new version of Android the pixel shipped with. I had to turn a bunch of the restrictions off for the pixel and yeah. The moto g84 has issues with notifications, major issues.

        • Cheers for advising.

          My dad and I both have the G54 as our back up phones so just wasn't sure if that was something we needed to keep an eye on.

    • damn, really sux, wonder if this is only for specific apps? but gmail, whatsapp all ok?

      • For me the issue is only with messenger. Whatsapp do get notified. Gmail is off for me as I use outlook which do get notification. With messenger sometimes I do get notified but most of the times receives msgs when open app.

        • +2

          I think this has to do with Agressive App/Power Management on the Motorolas. They seem to put un-used apps to sleep and their notifications will be late (only the App got woken up) or totally missed.

    • I initially had issues with notifications, but they've eased up. As below, I think it's to do with app power management. But, one thing I've noticed is that you need to reboot the phone after making changes to notification settings. I've not had this occur on any prior phone, but somehow rebooting the G84 applies the notification setting, while leaving it running (like other phones) doesn't seem to apply the changes.

  • We have received your inquiry. After reviewing, we found that the Motorola Moto G84 5G does not support Band 28. Please refer to the attached file for information about network bands compatible with the device.

    Do not hesitate to reach out if you need any further assistance.

    Kind regards,

    • But GSMCompare says it supports 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26, 28, 32, 38, 40, 41, 42

  • Please forgive me for spreading false information . Just reporting info direct from the retailer ! But now I am suss as to why these phones are being heavily discounted continuously !

    • Without Band 28 does it mean Boost sim cant make calls & sms after 3G shutdown?

      • SMS-messages: you can research it yourself.

        ALL-carriers use 4G-Band28 & we're told that we'll get better mobile-signal when inside-building, underground-carpark, or structure that block electromagnetic-radiation, eg you are @ different part of a building & your VIDEO-quality drop, while using your mobile-phone. All of this happen automatically, your-phone detect the best-signal broadcast by your-carrier.

        4G-Band28 is electromagnetic-radiation, the underlying-energy that 3G, 4G & 5G are build-upon: https://byjus.com/question-answer/what-is-electromagnetic-ra…

        Previously many-VOICE-mobile-calls (ie you dial a mobile# directly on your mobile-phone & NOT-APP) were being transmitted via 3G-network…4G mainly use for data-transmission:

        If you are using a NON-support-device RIGHT-now on Telstra/Optus mobile-network, & you make a VOICE-call, it works because your VOICE-call is being transmitted via their 3G-Network.

        Telstra & Optus customers with support-devices: VOICE-mobile-calls are being transmitted across their 4G-network, migration-started.

        3G shutdown: NON-supported-devices CAN'T call-out, or receive calls.

        It seems that supported-devices must be both software & hardware compatible with Mobile-carrier-network.

        Mobile-carriers can block specific-devices: reason…commercially-confident.

        Note that I specifically did-NOT use the word VoLTE…more techno-jargon to confuse the public.

      From website: https://www.motorola.com.au/smartphones-au-moto-g84-5g/p

      Networks + Bands
      5G: sub-6
      4G: LTE
      3G: WCDMA
      2G: GSM
      2G: GSM band 2/3/5/8
      3G: WCDMA band 1/2/5/8
      4G: LTE band 1/2/3/5/7/8/18/19/20/26/28/32/38/40/41/42
      5G: n1/n3/n5/n7/n8/n20/n26/n28/n38/n40/n41/n77/n78

      G84 does support LTE band 28!!! I have the G84 and it does support VoLTE and VoWiFi on Optus and Vodafone. Vodafone is only 4G now and it can definitely make calls and receive calls when I am outdoors with no WIFI connectivity.

      Moto-AU is known for up-to 50% OFF for clearing old-model-phones. Proof, see their OzBargain posts in the last 2 years: I bought 2 of the Moto-Edge-30-variants for others…& others have done the same via my-suggestions.

      I'm an Optimist: G84 50% OFF is around the corner…IF enough buyers wait.

      The only negative is that they tend-to have 3 years security-patch-support from released-date, & hence buyers will have only 2 years left.
      But, buyers can search the net for prudent-practices once security-support end…whatever suit their-preference.
