Check the appearance and basic functions of the SIM fleece maho "moto g8"! Released on May 4th for 25,800 yen |
As previously reported, Motorola Mobility Japan will release new SIM-free smartphones (smartphones) "moto g8 (model name: XT2045-6)" and "moto g8 power (model name: XT2041-3)" (both manufactured by Motorola Mobility) in 2020. It will be released sequentially from Monday, May 4, 2014. Although the price (all prices include tax) is open, the suggested retail price is 25,800 yen for the moto g8 and 32,800 yen for the moto g8 power. The high-end model "moto g8 plus" of the 8th generation "moto g8" family of the "moto g" series that has already been released earlier has a suggested retail price of 38,800 yen, and the chipset (SoC) and built-in memory ( The lineup has the same basic specifications such as RAM) and built-in storage, but different screens, cameras, and battery capacities. So this time, I borrowed the cheapest moto g8 from Motorola Mobility Japan, so I would like to introduce mainly the basic functions such as appearance, settings, and pre-installed apps. In addition, the official Web shop "Motorola Official Online Store" will come with a microSDXC card 128GB. The moto g8 is equipped with a vertically long 6.4-inch HD + (720 x 1560 dots) IPS liquid crystal "Max Vision display" (about 269 ppi) with an aspect ratio of 9:19 with a punch hole in the upper left of the screen, and the screen occupancy rate is about about. It is 88%, the size is about 161.3 x 75.8 x 9.0 mm, the mass is about 188.3 g, and the main body color is available in two colors, Neue Blue and Hologram White. The specifications of the three main moto g8 family models are summarized below, but the approximate size and weight are in the same class, and like the moto g8 plus, it is standard for recent smartphones. It seems, but I felt it was a little thick. Of the three models with screen resolutions, only the moto g8 is in the HD class, but at first glance there is no difference.

I took the moto g8. Weight that is not light at all The front camera of about 8 million pixels CMOS (1 pixel 1.12 μm) / wide-angle lens (F2.0) is mounted on the punch hole part. Only moto g8 plus supports not only 2.4GHz band but also 5.xGHz band wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and NFC Type A / B. The main common specifications are Qualcomm chipset (SoC) "Snapdragon 665 (SM6125)" (octacore CPU "2.0GHz x 4 + 1.8GHz x 4") manufactured by 11nm process, 4GB internal memory (RAM), 64GB internal storage. , MicroSDXC card (up to 512GB), FM radio, monaural speaker, etc. Volume up / down key and power key on the right side of the main unit, microSDXC card / nanoSIM card (4FF) slot on the left side, 3.5mm earphone microphone terminal and microphone on the upper side, USB Type-compatible with OTG on the lower side C terminal (USB 2.0), microphone, and external speaker are arranged. The battery capacity of the moto g8 is 4000mAh, which is the same as the moto g8 plus, but the charge is up to 10W. The OS was Android 9 (development code name: Pie) in moto g8 plus, but moto g8 and moto g8 power have Android 10 pre-installed from the time of release and support gesture navigation. Left and right sides of the moto g8 Top and bottom sides of the moto g8 The mobile phone network supports the following frequency bands. The SIM card supports dual SIM dual VoLTE (DSDV) with two nanoSIM card (4FF) sizes, and one is shared with the microSDXC card. In addition to the conventional NTT DoCoMo, au, and Softbank, it has been compatible with Japanese mobile network operators (MNOs) from the time of its release. Even with the moto g8 that I actually borrowed, at least calls, SMS, and data communication in the Rakuten line area can be used, and with the moto g8 plus, calls and SMS could not be used, so it seems that we are definitely responding. In addition, only au has acquired IOT, and other than that, it is only confirmed that it works in-house. 2G: 850MHz / 900MHz / 1800MHz / 1900MHz3G: B1 / B2 / B4 / B5 / B8 / B19 (including B6) 4G: B1 / B2 / B3 / B4 / B5 / B7 / B8 / B18 / B19 / B20 / B26 / B28 / B38 / B40 / B41 The moto g8 and moto g8 power support mobile phone services as a mobile network operator (MNO) using Rakuten Mobile's own line from the time of its release. The moto g8 plus will also be supported by software update. The front color is black for each color, and the back color is blue for all three models of the moto g8 family, but the moto g8 Neue blue is a simple "navy blue". .. Therefore, it is a little cheaper than the greenish capri blue of the moto g8 power and the deep navy blue cosmic blue of the moto g8 plus, but the overall texture is almost the same regardless of the price. Is it not? The back of the moto g8. The color is Neue Blue, and a fingerprint sensor is mounted on the "M" logo of Motorola. The rear camera is more modest than the moto g8 plus. The sensors are an accelerometer, gyro sensor, proximity sensor, ambient illuminance sensor, and a fingerprint sensor on the back. The moto g8 power has a geomagnetic sensor, but the moto g8 does not. The rear camera has a triple configuration, with approximately 16 million pixel CMOS (1 pixel 1.12 μm) / wide-angle lens (F1.7) compatible with laser autofocus and approximately 8 million pixel CMOS (1 pixel 1.12 μm) with an angle of view of 118 °. Ultra-wide-angle lens (F2.2), approximately 2 million pixel CMOS (1 pixel 1.75 μm) / macro lens (F2.2) that can approach up to 2 cm at the shortest. In addition, a ToF camera is also installed. The viewfinder screen of the camera app. Camera, video, etc. are switched by slide, and other frequently used functions are automatically added to slide switching Android 10, but the UI of the camera application is the same as the old model such as moto g8 plus. The setting screen of the camera app that switches to "ultra wide" mode with an ultra-wide-angle camera by holding it horizontally and pressing the bottom of the two points in the center of the left side. As with the moto g7 series and moto g8 plus, the shutter sound of the camera can be turned off without a SIM card installed, but the shutter sound cannot be turned off when a SIM card for a Japanese mobile phone line is installed. , It seems that you can prevent the shutter sound by setting it to the manner mode (it is unknown whether it is the same in the product version) In addition, there are shooting modes such as "portrait" and "macro". A button that automatically switches the macro mode when you bring it closer to the subject is also displayed. Similarly, scenes such as cooking are automatically recognized by AI, and although this is automatically applied, it is possible to turn it off manually with a button. Also, a list of home screens and pre-installed apps that support shooting in RAW format even with third-party apps. Applications such as Facebook, documents, spreadsheets, and slides can be deleted (uninstalled) Notification screen. The user interface (UI) is "Pure Android", which is the first level of the simple operation system setting screen. Very standard except with "Moto". Google's "Gboard" is pre-installed for Japanese character input. For Japan, the model number (SKU) is "XT2045-6", the FCC ID is "IHDT56YK4", the technical conformity certification is "ADF20-0005018", and the construction design certification is. "018-200022" Confirmation of main specifications Since the built-in storage is about 14GB at the time of purchase, the rest is about 50GB. Although the battery life is not as good as the moto g8 power, it has a 4000mAh battery, so if you frequently use the impression camera that has more than the standard, select "Settings" → "System" → "Operation" and select "Press the power key twice". It is convenient to set "Start camera". Since it became Android 10, it supports gesture navigation and dark themes. Benchmark score is about 170,000 for "AnTuTu Benchmark" Motorola's unique function is "quick capture", "screenshot editor" that can take full screen screenshots, "peak display", "kind display", as well as functions for games Recent "cheap smartphones" with good cost performance can be obtained for 30,000 yen even if they are compatible with Osaifu Keitai (FeliCa) and waterproof / dustproof, so how much cheap moto g8 can be accepted. However, Motorola Mobility Japan says that the moto g7 family has been selling well, and it seems that the moto g8 will be sold at a slightly lower price, and for those who are particular about it, Wi-Fi 5.xGHz I'm worried that the obi is not compatible, but it seems that many people say that it is enough if it can be used for the time being. Also, at the moment, new products such as ASUS JAPAN and Huawei Japan (Huawei Japan), which are rivals in the SIM fleece smartphone market of 30,000 yen or less, have not been released for a while, so there is a need for people who want a new smartphone that is as cheap as possible. Doesn't it match?
