Lenovo's Moto G series has long stood for great value, and has seen tremendous sales in the Indian market. Since 2014, 7 million Moto G units have been sold in India alone. The fifth-generation Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus were launched here just a few months ago, and while they may still be available, Lenovo has decided to introduce refreshed special editions of both phones.
Moto G5S Summary
The Moto G5S is a good attempt from Lenovo and gets many things right. It's built well, and comes with an excellent battery, a competent camera for daytime shots, and good overall performance. Audio quality is also good and fast charging is a welcome addition. There's no getting around this phone's disappointing low-light camera performance though. At its price, the Moto G5S should be a capable smartphone.

Recent PurchaserKamlesh Achari (Dec 22, 2017) on Gadgets 360Due to the large surface area & shape of glass over the cameras, it is prone to damage as I found out recently. Repairers could not find a replacement part for the glass so beware if you buy!Is this review helpful?
