if can make use of 2 phones I think it should be with G6. But if you are planning on like selling the G6 then it may not be worth the effort. G6 is about $100 (I think)

Depends on you. A free G6 is a hell of a choice if you need two phones...

Another Moto without band 71 for T-Mobile. Bummer.

Similar to the Moto G7, T-Mobile released their G7 / G7 Plus version under Revvlry / Revvlry+. Maybe T-Mobile got a contract with Motorola 🤷🏻 ♂️

Motorola must think it's illegal to manufacture a phone with more than 4 gigs of RAM.

Terrible deal and phone.

No Band 71 (T-Mobile)
No Band 14, 29, 30 (ATT)
No Verizon or Sprint support.

VoLTE? Probably not.
WiFI Calling? Definitely not.
Updates? Absolutely not.

Basically worthless unless you enjoy losing money. The fact they have to throw in an extra phone with a brand new phone ought to be a red flag.

$340 is definitely a pretty great price for this phone. It's like a Pixel 3a XL and OnePlus 7 Pro midrange crossover. The charging speed, battery life, and modern looks of a the 7T Pro with the value and performance of a Pixel 3a XL and the added benefit of Android One (although Motorola has been pretty lax about following a decent update timeline for its Android One devices unless you sign up for their feedback/beta program)

my exact thought. i was really excited when phones started shrinking bezels, but of course they have taken it too far. i don't need a pop up camera, i don't need a notch. just give me a thin top bezel.

Can't speak for the Moto but the one plus 7 has a pop up and it's stupid strong. Like they supported a cinder block with it.

The pixel 4xl is the phone youre looking for. Dont you dare say the top bezel is too big. Its exactly what you just asked for. Thats what you get with no notch or pop up camera.

concentrate on camera and such but fall short on calling necessities and updates...job well done...some of these companies act like they are doing you a favor by putting features people don't really use, there's too many phones with the same thing. I understand trying to get more customers.but am I supposed to be thankful for the headphone jack when there was no reason to remove it in the first place
