Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite has arrived on the market as a 4G Android smartphone. It was announced and released by Motorola in April 2020. Android Pie is the operating system. The camera department is made up of low-quality lenses, but the battery department is endowed with a 5000 mAh battery.

Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite Design

G8 Mower Lite dimensions are 164.9 x 75.8 x 9.2 mm, and it weighs 200 grams, which is a bit heavy, but that has to do with the battery weight. The smartphone build is front glass and plastic body. This phone is not waterproofed, but it comes with a fingerprint sensor.

MediaTek MT6765 Helio P35 is found inside the smartphone. Its process technology is 12 nm with 64-bit architecture. Also, the CPU speed is 2.3 GHz, while the GPU is PowerVR GE8320.

Storage Feature

Furthermore, the storage feature for Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite is 4 GB of RAM that can’t be increased. However, the 64 GB of internal storage is able to receive an external boost through the use of microSD card.

Battery Power

To power the Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite, there is the 5000 mAh Li-Po battery that has no fast charging, and no wireless charging. It charges at normal 10W charging, which is also known as standard charging. However, the battery is able to provide backup longer than two days when it is on constant use.

Speaker & Call Quality

Sound quality in this Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite is reminiscent of what obtains in Motorola phones. There is the loudspeaker to help amplify call and media sounds, and there is the provision of 3.5mm jack for noise cancellation use.

Software Features & Sensors

Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite comes with operating system Android v9.0 Pie, and it could receive update to the latest Android at any time from now. The sensors in the device are fingerprint which is situated to the rear, also accelerometer, gyro, proximity, and others.

Camera, Video, and Image Quality

There are three cameras to the rear of Moto G8 Power Lite. They are 16 MP, f/2.0 wide; 2 MP, f/2.4 macro; and 2 MP, f/2.4 depth. These are at the rear of the phone. The selfie camera is 8 MP f/2.0 wide angled lens. These cameras produce low-quality images. But the video performance is 1080p. other features of the camera departments are LED flash (there is no flash at the front camera) HDR, panorama, etc.

Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite Price

The G8 Power Lite sells for $185 in USA. It also sells for €160 in Europe. In Nigeria it sells for about 70,300 Naira.

The Verdict

We really think that the Motorola Moto G8 Power Lite is rich in name but lacks substance. This is due to examining the price tag and comparing it with what other phones in that price range have in features. First, the OS is outdated, secondly, the display features are mediocre, third, nothing to show at the camera department. Even the CPU is speed is not at par with what receives accolades in modern times. So, would you buy this phone because it is beautiful and durable, and because the battery lasts?
