Almost impossibly solid-feeling for how light it is.

Ok, so I'm on my third Moto z2. (Long story) I've had two AT&T models and one T-Mobile one. All of which have been excellent. I will say that the AT&T model seems to be a bit better in terms of fit and finish.
On the tmo model there seems to be a bit of a lip between the screen and bezel on the front. On the AT&T model its a much more seamless feel.
While I personally prefer the stealth black of the att it picks up fingerprints significantly more than the silver.
Coming from an Xperia xz this phone blows it out of the water in terms of build, screen, speed and battery.

I think the quality feel is quite good as well. I also own a Sony XZ premium, and while the Sony wins in the weight category (heavier), the materials used on the Moto are much better for durability. Put a screen protector on and fuhgettaboutit!!

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Samsung Galaxy fold before depleting the battery.

Battery drains fast here

Only had it a week, getting decent battery life but Android System usage seems to be higher than my Galaxy Tab S4 and my Galaxy Note 9. It's either first or second. Seems odd.

Not really got good screen on time as been busy packing and moving house

Had mine for a couple of days only and very impressed with the battery live vs my Galaxy S20 Exynos.
Around 7:30 Hours SOT is very impressive considering the screen size.

Overall speed

Would you say that the Sony Xperia 1 II is "fast" in day-to-day use? A higher rating indicates that you think the Sony Xperia 1 II exhibits fantastic performance. Like, is it as fast as your tears when you watch The Titanic?

Yes, its hella snappy. Just keep in mind that the phone has exceptional ram management, so avoid closing your background apps like a madman. It will drain your battery like three times as fast than just keeping them open in the background.

Wish the fingerprint scanner were quicker and more accurate. The LG V30 has one with superb performance, my phone still has virtually zero errors no matter my fingers as long as they are dry.

Hi,
Does anyone have such inconsistent geekbench scores as shown in my screenshot?
I have factory reset the thing and still same behaviour.

And no, the phone was not warm before the test.

Outdoor visibility (max brightness)

Rate this thread to express how well you can see the HTC U20 5G's display outdoors. In case you've been playing Minecraft for 18 months straight, you might not known how to get outside anymore. Well, find the door and walk through it. A higher rating indicates that it has very high maximum brightness and thus fantastic outdoor visibility in direct sunlight.

At first I thought "oh-oh" when increasing the brightness because it only got brighter slowly, but at the end of the setting option there was a lot more. Going through the apps and menus in light mode was absolutely no problem, of course it was more reflective in dark mode, but even there it is possible to recognize and operate everything without any problems even in direct sunlight.

you can see everything very well and the dactive brightness works well

The Brightness at the U20 is not as good as compared to my U11. The U11 had the same low brightness issue at the beginning. It changed after HTCs update to Pie which increased the battery life too.

Clarity/resolution

The Vivo V20 Pro has a crazy crisp display. Just kidding, this is automated text so who knows if this screen is any good. So, you be the judge! A higher rating indicates that it's extremely sharp and clear, and that you cannot see pixels with your naked eye.

oops, I just realized this is the resolution section, not the speakerphone. Sorry, will repost on the right place. Well, theresolutio is clear. I think we've come to the point where every phone above 300$ has an acceptable 1080p screen
Such emptiness...
I wrote an emtire essay here but accidently deleted it.... :⁠'⁠(
The speaker is terrible. Insane peak at 2khz and no bass, which is not surprising with speakerphones. Well anyway, here's the EQ preset that I use with Poweramp Equalizer to make it sound liveable (I've attached the preset file, open it with/in Poweramp EQ):

Unfortunately, the eq only works with media player apps. That means, sh*t audio in games without earphones..
