Motorola One Hyper review
Here are some of the comments by people on YouTube.
- SaithusX: I think $400 is a lil too high. Just imo. The bold N1 I got is pretty good. Personally for about $479 I can get the red magic 3s which is a gaming phone with a 90hz display. Sub $300 would definitely be a better price point.
- Alexis Javier: Underpowered and overprice, just buy a xiaomi 9t pro or something similar with way better specs for same price
- panther cheng: I prefer a notch rather than a pop up camera...
Verdict
Motorola One Hyper is an intriguing smartphone with an impressive design unique from other phones in the market. The ability of the front camera to pop-up may be an appealing feature, but it still remains a mid-range handset in the market. In terms of cameras, it has one of the best lenses for photography.
