.....My G62......

Hi SiliconChip, my wife is considering either a G62 or G84, is the G62 any good? Do they both have NFC? Any other advice (from anyone) on relative merits of G62 and G84, or other similar phones, would be great, thanks

all these have NFC...........generally with Moto the higher the number the better.

I have the g84, it has NFC and a compass (so night sky apps work), the fingerprint sensor is on the front working through the screen (I'm not so sure about this as it was brilliant when I first had it, now it seems to ignore that I'm touching it too often)

It has 5G (except there is no 5G network....).

Compared to my G9 power it is a few mm shorter and 50g lighter, which sounds nothing, but really make it pocketable whereas the G9 was simply too big & heavy to carry around.

Battery life seems ok.

I couldn't get a cheap Chinese wallet case for it, but the one from a G73 fits with a couple of extra holes as they moved the microphones.

It doesn't have wireless charging, which I'd like as plugging in the usb every couple of days is annoying.
