The Moto G7 Plus is the most powerful G-phone yet,
but its calling in life is photography. It features a 16+5MP dual camera on the
back optimized for low-light shooting. The 16MP sensor has large 1.22µm
pixels, bright f/1.7 aperture and optical image stabilization for photos, plus
electronic stabilization and hyperlapse mode for video. There’s a 12MP selfie
camera with portrait and group selfie modes.
AI-powered features like Smart Composition and
Auto-Smile capture will help you get the best shot. The rear camera can record
4K video at 30fps and 1080p at 30/60/120fps. The 5MP module is a depth sensor
for that creamy bokkeh in your portrait shots.
The G7 Plus is powered by a Snapdragon 636 chipset,
which features four Cortex-A73-derived Kryo 260 Gold cores plus four A53-based
cores. It’s paired with 3GB of RAM and 64GB storage (expandable with microSD
cards up to 512GB). It goes without saying that it runs stock Android 9 Pie.
This is the first Moto phone to feature the new 27W
TurboPower charging mode. It promises 12 hours of usage in just 15 minutes of
charging. The not-so-good news is that the battery has only 3,000mAh capacity.
On the plus side, the phone is compatible with any QC4.0 or USB PD3.0 charger.
The Moto G7 Plus sports a 6.2” LCD on the front with
a teardrop notch. It has 1,080 x 2,270px resolution and Gorilla Glass. Stereo
speakers with Dolby Audio plus a 3.5mm jack promise an eventful multimedia
experience. If you want to go wireless, there’s Bluetooth 5.0 LE with aptX. All Moto G7 models will be
available in Europe starting mid-February. The Plus will cost € 300.
