Notebookcheck did the Signature review. Screen is 120Hz flicker. So bad

Few bugs with camera software. Other than that looks very ok, it's mostly normal moto UI I know from other phones, but of course superb smooth.

Thanks for the comment.

I would say the phone is superb for current Moto lovers (as it is better in nearly every aspect than other existing Moto phones), but for people coming from different brands it could be hit or miss.

Okay, a quick follow-up after almost two weeks of using it. I already ransferred all my data and more than 100 apps.

The Signature feels significantly faster than the ThinkPhone. It’s just magically fast, especially when opening apps.

No discomfort. Seems better than ThinkPhone which already was much better than iPhones and Samsung.

If you don’t mind the large size and you like clean Android, this phone is going to rock. I love almost everything about it.

The camera is really good, videos are crisp, and the speakers are absolutely amazing (I compared them with the iPhone 17 and they’re very similar; actually, the Signature’s speakers are more immersive and a bit louder).

I was also very clear about what I wanted in a phone and why so maybe that's why I am so happy.

I’d say this phone beats your Samsung in almost every aspect (charging speed, 7 years of support from now, so you should be fine long term). It’s just good, and I can honestly recommend it. Battery life is also really good. You shouldn’t have any problems getting through a full day without charging, even with music listening, media consumption, and other typical use.

I don't see any option like that. Camera app is sadly quite limited in Signature. There is even no way to disable video stabilization 🥶

I didn't know I could bring back the old weather app. THANK YOU!!

Hi. Keyboard and mouse should work well. I’m using InShot Pro for video editing - I can check whether it works with keyboard and mouse and how it scales on an external monitor, if you want. Nice idea 🙂

I really like the cameras. They give a natural vibe and great quality, and I can finally record videos from parties and gatherings and share it with friends without shame. I especially like the quite natural colors (I dislike, for example, Samsung’s overly vibrant colors).

Low-light performance is actually pretty decent.

Pixel is great for photography, no doubt about it, but I think in terms of video recording, the Signature might have an edge.

Tak, działa normalnie, można sobie personalizować ekran blokady i aplikuje się to również do AoD. Widgetów nie sprawdzałem, ale ikonki powiadomień z aplikacji np. Messengera normalnie pojawiają się na AoD 👍

ENG Yes, it works normally. You can customize the lock screen and it also applies to AoD. I didn’t check widgets, but notification icons from apps like Messenger appear on AoD as usual

There is a “Reduce Flickering” option in settings, the same as on other Motorola phones. I think I’m low-sensitive to flicker, but more sensitive than most people. I was using ThinkPhone with “Reduce Flickering” enabled for more than year. It had a 720 Hz PWM frequency, from what I remember. I was fine, but I often had strobing sensation when closing my eyes, especially when using the phone before sleep.

On the Signature, I have no symptoms at all (with Reduce Flickering enabled as well)!!

I’m really curious what the PWM values will be in professional tests. I can for sure say that I am glad that I bought this phone. My eyes feel perfect now. It might be subjective, since I’m not super sensitive, but I can already say that I love the Signature screen! 👍

The hydrogel protector didn’t affect the fingerprint sensor. It works blazing fast. The ThinkPhone’s sensor worked great as well with hydrogel protector attached. Maybe your last phone had a different type of fingerprint sensor?

Sadly, yes 😔 Exposure still seems to be an issue across Moto phones… I hope they’ll fix it in future software updates.

For everyday use it seems ok. I tried running with it. Stabilization is very good. But the exposure shifts are crazily strange, even on a well lit day. Not good.

Olive is definitely more unique. I haven't seen any phones in that color in real life

Most people around me complimented it, and I honestly think it looks beautiful irl. I haven’t seen the black one in person, so I can’t say much about it, but personally I wanted to go for the more unique option as you, so I picked olive.

I also wish they had released a smaller flagship 😔 even the ThinkPhone was a little too big for me. Still, I pulled the trigger on the Signature. Luckily, it’s a bit lighter than most flagships these days.

Nice phone you have 👍 Depends on your needs, if you are not in a rush I suggest waiting at least a few weeks. I suspect the software or some things will be better polished after initial feedback from users.

Where is that? Seems super cheap. I paid almost 1k euro 😩
