IMPORTANT UPDATE: After a little research, the DS EU version includes a charger. This was confirmed with a purchase. The Greek version does not come with a charger. Try to find a store that sells from another European country. If you get a version without a charger, you will need to buy the Motorola 33W MC-332 charger ONLY. All other chargers will provide 15W, whether from Motorola or other manufacturers.
Very lightweight device. Very smooth operation with Snapdragon 680, 6GB RAM, and clean Android. I had tried Snapdragon 680 with 3GB RAM and MIUI on the Redmi 10C and there is no comparison. Moto G32 is way better. The battery is also impressive. It easily lasts for 3+ days. You will need to do about 5-6 security updates, as well as upgrade to Android 13. The latest update is now in January 2024, which is very positive.
In the device we first got from the Greek representative, without a charger, Revolut is available in the Play Store.
In the second device we got from a foreign representative, with a charger, Revolut is not available in the Play Store.
Strange things. Anyway, I installed the app with an APK.
I recommended it to a friend and she bought it at the end of November.
The package did not include a charger. This was expected anyway, as it is stated in the description on Skroutz. But I read in other reviews that some people received a charger. Obviously, it depends on which representative/country the device is from. So, calling the store to ask which version they have would help with your purchase.
With a 33W charger from Poco X3 Pro, it did not charge more than 16W, so we bought the Motorola TurboPower 30W from a store here on Skroutz, which is a rarely available product. Unfortunately, even with the proper charger, the device charges at 17W. We tried complete discharge, full charge, restarts, calibration, etc. recommended by Motorola and various forums, but nothing changed.
Initially, the phone did not have a fingerprint setting. After several system updates (maybe 3 or 4), it fixed that and other functional issues. So, make the updates right away.
At first, there was a problem with calls, but not anymore.
The camera is obviously not satisfactory, but at this price, you can only hope for the best.
Unfortunately, we bought it for €145 and spent an additional €20 for the charger, while a few days later, the version with the charger dropped to €125... Sadness... But who could have known... No one had written about the problems and peculiarities we encountered...
We also purchased the Skroutz warranty extension for €15 for 1 year.
Overall, we chose this phone because it had all the features we wanted: NFC, headphone jack, microSD slot, fingerprint sensor, and fast charging. The fast charging, as I mentioned, did not work for us. But the most important thing is that it has clean Android. I got tired of MIUI on Xiaomi and Poco, it is full of features that few people use and it is poorly made, constantly closing apps and not receiving notifications promptly. This is a common issue in modern versions that have even removed the auto startup from app settings. Anyway, Motorola receives notifications instantly from various messaging apps.
I recently discovered the MultiCulti unboxing channel, where the presenter has shown various phones under €150. You will prefer Realme C55 only if appearance and camera matter to you more than smooth operation and speed. Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 is simply far away.
