The Xiaomi brand has accustomed us to the excellent relationship between price and performance.
A careful design made of resistant polycarbonate, dimensions of 165.22 x 75.73 x 9.14 mm for a weight of 197 grams are the credentials for the new Moto G30. A smartphone features a 6.5-inch 90 Hz IPS display and a resolution of 1,600 x 720 pixels (269 PPI) that offers a good representation of images even if it is not exceptionally bright.
Good technical equipment with SoC Snapdragon 662 4G LTE flanked by 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal memory expandable via microSD. The good news is that the G30 is a dual SIM with a three-seat slide, so we won’t have to sacrifice a SIM to expand the memory.
Then we have 802.11ac Dual-Band Wi-Fi, NFC, Bluetooth 5.0, headphone jack, and USB-C port. Autonomy is excellent thanks to the powerful 5,000 mAh battery. The operating system is Android 11.
Finally, let’s move on to the cameras section, where we find a 13-megapixel front and a rear area with four cameras: the primary 64-megapixel, the 118-degree 8-megapixel ultra-wide angle, a 2-megapixel macro, and the classic 2-megapixel support for portraits.
The quality of the photos is excellent in good lighting conditions. It reduces as the light goes down but remains above average for a smartphone of this price. Good videos are recorded at full HD at 60 fps, although you feel the lack of an optical stabilizer in low light. Price: 239.90 euros.
