        Downgraded my self from S22 ultra to G84. After installing GCAM i dont see any difference in the pictures compare to S22 Ultra.

        • easternculture on 05/07/2024 - 23:36
          +2

          The difference would be in low light conditions.
          Also optical zoom is a big plus for me in Samsung phones, loving the 10x optical zoom on the s23U and another plus is the secure folder to hide those pictures and WhatsApp messages 🤣🤣🤣 without the need of a second phone

          Same here, I don't see a difference in photos between my wife's G84 and Pixel 8 Pro for most practical purposes.

          The G84 is so much lighter and thinner, too.

          • montorola on 06/07/2024 - 09:56

            @RedHab: Did you use your g84 with stock camera or gcam?

              +2

              @montorola: Yes, the stock one. If you zoom in the Pixel's camera is way better, low light slightly better, but for most people, I don't think it's worth paying 4x the price.

              • montorola on 07/07/2024 - 14:04

                @RedHab: Awesome, thanks for justifying my purchase haha

      Think of it like this.

      My old flagship Samsung Galaxy S1 from 2010 or whatever has better night shots than this, and similar daytime shots. (Keep in mind it was the best camera phone for the time.)

          It seems that AU-retail-stock of G84 & G54 is still available & sort-of back to normal. Price is back to normal, with minor-discount only @ HM.

          It'll be interesting to see what sales AU-Motorola will have as we get closer to Telstra/Optus 3G shutdown & G84 & G54 replacement models due within 6 months ish? How close will both model get close to 50% discount is dependent on buyers holding-out, eg potential-buyers have a 4G phone that can make-CALLs & hence NOT-desperate.

          G82: may be Moto-AU is hiding the heavy-discounting by bundle it via package-deal. Will they make repeat the same mistake for G84, when they release the G85 model ?

        Do not twist, it is upper limit, not lower.
        Why it is upper limit here you go:
        Motor 54 ratio: 128GB/8GB: 16
        Motor 84 ratio: 256GB/12GB: 21.33
        If $179.10 buys 16, then what should buy 21.33
        179.10 x 21.33: 3,820.203
        3,820.33/16: $238.79
        Motor 84 should not be more than $238.79
        add 10 bucks for crap features, still should be less than $250.
        No more twist OK? even before me, maths bend you. cheers. IBT.

          i have a samsung s10. We have features Pixel owners can envy… or envied for some years before they became Google features… These were or are things like:

          Double press power button for camera.

          Multi window.

          Toggle shortcuts in the notification panel.

          Hotspot with the wifi (like a wifi extender)

          Super Power Saving Mode (on the S5 at least) which turned your phone into an AMOLED black/white dumb phone, which enabled it to last for days.

      • Murkymerv on 06/07/2024 - 10:08

        The list goes on , (like very little software support).

        • Trumped on 06/07/2024 - 10:40

          Yout point is moot.

          My G51 was essentially eol when I jumped in. I still receive security updates and it updated to its latest android from the beginning. Not once have I felt unsupported. At these prices you’d update the phone to get latest android os. Big deal, go pay top tier flagship price tag if you want latest os guff.

          • Murkymerv on 06/07/2024 - 12:36

            @Trumped: Latest software guff keeps you protected , and for your info , theres no need to go top tier to get ongoing software support

    How is this compared to my Samsung A73? I got my A73 second hand really cheap a year ago and it's always lacked snappiness (probs due to one ui) and it's camera isn't that great anyway.

    Would this be a good sidegrade? The G84 seems to be similar and better in most of the specs and I really like the addition of the 3.5mm headphone jack.

      Lag is because too many apps running in the background. Install "Hibernator" app to choose which apps don't need to run all day. This app is powerful.

      Also worth it to install "SD Maid" + "SD Maid Pro" (paid) to clean the rubbish from the system, clear app cache etc. (many features). Much better cleaning than Files by Google for example

    The G84 is a solid phone. No regrets after upgrading from the Galaxy Note9. Was eyeing a S24 Ultra but think I am happy with the G84 and an extra $1200 in my pocket. Just as snappy as wife's S23 Ultra (don't game so can't vouch for that). The stock camera is crap but GCam is surprisingly good.
