Between the G5s Plus Special Edition and the regular G5s Plus.. My Special Edition is 5.5 4gb ram and 64 gig of storage.. I can't even seem to find a compatible case for the thing..

Hi guys,
Are there any benchmarks showing performance advantages to the 64GB model over the 32GB model? I will be replacing my 16GB att moto x 2014 with a 32GB (or 64GB) pure edition and was curious if anyone ran benchmarks providing any speed difference, at least in the read/write performance? I know with solid state drives usually the higher capacity drives have slight speed advantages, if there is no advantage I may just save and get the 32GB as I have BARELY gotten by with 16GB almost a year, the 32Gb will be perfect till I decide to upgrade to a 2015 moto x. I really like the 2015 X but the 2014 size seems perfect and Its very fast especially after the 5.1.0 update.
Thanks
A little help, I am in doubt about the 4x and 4 pro / prime, I have some questions
1- I will notice a lot of day-to-day performance difference between a snapdragon 435 (28nm) at 1.4ghz and a 625 (14nm) at 2.0ghz
2 - being the 4x / 4 encounter with versions of 4gb ram and 64gb of storage and the 4Pro 3gb ram and 32gb, 4gb of ram would help in the performance of the 4 / 4X?
3- In 32GB versions, when starting the first time, how much storage is left in the device?
Hey,
1. It depends on your usage. Im no gamer and im not lagging with 3/32GB 4X.
2. Not really, but if you have a lot of data you cant put on the SD card id rather take the 64GB.
3. About 24GB on internal. SD up to 128 GB i guess, im only running a 64 SD card.
Maybe you should check the available frequencies supported by each model. Needs depend on your carrier.
I have narrowed down my search to G6 and X4. Amazon has a deal on X4 for $200. So price-wise both the phones are the same, around $200. I assume both the phones have all the necessary bands needed for the USA.
I'm leaning towards X4 since it has a better processor. SDM630 vs SDM450. (Same ram & capacity 3GB/32GB) I don't play games on the phone. Just email, calendar, FaceBook, GMaps, Waze, CoPilot, for photos and videos. Some light web browsing. That's it.
G6 is just splash-resistant whereas X4 is IP68.
But then again G6 was released in 2018 and X4 was in 2017.
What phone would you recommend?
Thanks in advance!

I got both Amazon versions of both phones. I also had the G5 previously. The x4 was by far the worst of them. It's not as water resistant as it claimed and there was damage on the edges of the screen. The biggest problem though was the space. You could not have apps on SD on the x4, and it's not very long before you run out of space. I got the 64gb G6 and it's pretty awesome and you can write apps to SD.

Thanks for the reply.
So G6 internal memory can be expanded with an SD card, while in X4 SD card is just an external memory in which apps cannot be installed, right?
With my budget, I'm looking at the 32GB G6 and I have a 64GB SD card. So that should technically extend the memory. How much memory is used out of the box for the OS and default apps? If I get the 32GB will it have atleast 20GBs empty space?
Other than not being water-resistant, any other issues with the X4?

My system says that it uses 7.2gb for the system, but that maybe including installed/updated system software.
I'm going to be ditching my Samsung S7 Edge for a Moto G6 shortly. I can pick up the 32Gb / 3Gb version for $200, or get the 64Gb/4Gb from Amazon for $300. 32 G isn't enough storage, but I can pick up a 64 Gb or 128 Gb SD card for much less than the $100 difference in price. Is the jump from 3G -> 4G in RAM worth it? I'd also be getting all the Amazon apps preloaded - whether I want them or not. I'm thinking I'd be better off with the standard version, and just adding storage myself, but thought I'd see if there are reasons to go the other route.
Anyone has experience in performance differences between 6GB and 8GB model?
By quick glancing it looks like only difference is amount of memory or is there something else? Device will be used for photo and social apps only. No gaming of any kind.
Thanks
Same otherwise. For your use, probably wouldn't notice any difference.
The 128gb version also has 8gb ram, not only 256gb

Some 128GB models only have 6GB RAM. All 256/512GB models have 8GB RAM.

Ok didn't know, mine has 8
Didn't know they made 8gb / 128gb variants. As far as it's listed here, there's only 6/128 , 8/256 & 8/512
As for the difference, honestly from 6- 8 there will be no noticeable difference during regular usage. It's not like Emui allows all the apps to keep running in the background. Power management is quite aggresive and probably will need to remove powergenie to fully utilize it.
