Motorola or Samsung

[Mark Squires]

Hi guys

Trying to get down to a decision on a phone. I was looking at some used options, but I'm really worried that they can be blacklisted at any time... So I'm going new.

I'm trying to decide on one of the following (if someone can add another option in a similar price point, let me know)

Motorola G7 Plus
Motorola One Vision
Samsung A20
Samsung A50

Like I mentioned, I've gotten some great offers for used phones (and supposedly new ones) but I'm wary of sellers and if the phones are actually legit.

FYI = I'm residing in Newfoundland, Canada. Just trying to dig out of thst epic snowstorm that may have been in the news recently.

Thanks
M

Hi, moved the thread to general help forum for better visibility.

Samsung tends to get better software support for longer compared to Motorola. The exception would be the Android One Moto phones, which includes the One Vision.

Yea, the one vision appeals to me for sure. I have a few sellers offering some great prices on unlocked phones.... The A50, a70 and one vision, but I don't know if the risk is worth it. If I do purchase new, it would be thru Amazon for the ability to return the device.

Besides checking the IMEI, I guess there's no other way to be sure for purchasing from a 2nd party

Plus, it's also a great Queen song.

One vision 355
One action 335
G7 moto plus 265
A50 375
A70 440

Those are the current prices on Amazon (Canada)

Any thoughts on the devices listed and the prices mentioned?

Moto G7+ is an excellent mid-ranger and very good value for that price. Right now it's starting to get Android 10.

Yea I just noticed that. That seems to be the top pick for me now. The Power version seems to have a monster battery but only displays in 720 it seems to limit battery usage

Yes, the Power version has a monster battery, but the rest of specs are not so good compared with the regular 7 and 7+ models. It all depends on which specs and features you value more on a phone.

I think Motorola best

It might help if you gave some reasons.
