Hello Guys,
I recently bought a moto g 2015 2GB Varient. When i Look the device as straight i can see everything clearly. When i bring the phone close and slightly Turn I can see a texturing on my phone. I Can see these texturing when the Display is on. THese textures are similar just like back of moto G 2015. Is this normal or just the problem faced by me.
It's normal. i can also see same textures on my moto g xt1550.

The display is built like that because of moto display dont worry its normal
Hello, in your experience, how is the quality of the recordings made with the moto g (3rd generation)? Do you think is enough for recordings some university lectures? I'm very interested in this phone, but also on the x play, which however costs more, so I think I will buy the g.
yea well,
I don't know how it seems not to be an issue for most people ... I have used the old Moto G (1. Gen, XT1032) for years and, now, decided to upgrade to the new and way more sophisticated G4 Plus (XT1642). I have to say I love the phone in pretty much all regards, but this one major drawback is just making me sad. It's not possible to listen to music on it anymore (using the audio jack) once you compare it to the good old Moto G.
The DAC quality just went as bad as cheap Samsung phones, in my opinion.
If there is anyone here with an old Moto G at home, just try it. Use the same source & headphones (e.g. Jaya the Cat - Blur). The difference is unbelievable. One enters into another (music) world listening on the Moto G. The G4 Plus just doesn't sound pleasant at all...
Consider getting a good pair of bluetooth headphones with aptx support.
You can turn the awful response to a GREAT sound using viper4android. You will need to root the phone, install TWRP and several zip files and do some configuration in order to make it work (installing drivers and enabling the dsp is not enough to make it process the audio). There is a guide to the installation process for our phones (make moto g4 plus viper4andoid scream or similar)
Spotify is a bad example, because the free version is highly compressed (lossy).
I am not sure why people use phones for music, it is not how real music should be listened. Get an external DAC and use only FLAC files.
However, I agree that a pair of GOOD Bluetooth headphones, with AptX support might be better, and only because Qualcomm included AptX support in their Snapdragon the MotoG4Plus has AptX. Today's Moto by Lenovo doesn't even know if their phones support AptX, last time they checked that on the MotoX and MotoG first gen, when Motorola cared about their brand:

You can use an USB DAC with an OTG cable.
Yes, these would be the options...
Just sad, as I already have expensive Headphones and don't like to use an external DAC. I wonder, why the DAC of the Moto G so awesome sounds? You should really test it, it's an amazing difference...
Does anyone know by chance which DAC chip they built into this old Moto G?

What audio app are you using? I get the opposite when I use Google play music. I make sure it is downloaded before I play it. I have found it is nearly the same or a little better with the new G4. I have the regular G4. If you are using Pandora or Spotify they are not good for audio quality so I wouldn't assume they would be good baseline.
Make sure it's not downloaded to an SD. Has caused me issues when I did so I have to use internal storage. Latency issues.
Personally I use my ear pods from my old IPhone and it works good. Bluetooth never sounds right and any headphones that cost more than $10 aren't worth it to me. If your really concerned then I would recommend an iPod and not use your phone.
Try the nougat soak test once, there is a significant increase in audio quality..currently only Custom ROMs having the new audio quality are 7.1 ROMs by vache and shreps.
I'm using PowerAmp music player and I found it is great (my only option from a lot of players). So I bought it. I suggest you try that once. Moto G4 Plus is my first from the brand so IDK about previous generations. Also n7 Music player is also nice but it needs a lot of internal memory for album artwork. The inbuilt Audio Effects app sucks and it feels cheap. Coming from a Music phone (Xperia) to Moto is really disappointing. It's all Google and Lenovo now.
I have no issues on my moto g4 plus . I am quite particular about clear sound too . I have found it to be just nice . So far only tested it with online radio. Streaming for 94.3 Bangalore as well as Mumbai on 1cast.in .Sounds excellent . I connect the phone to my pre amp which is is also connected to an amplifier with the phono to rca cable . Of course it's like vintage audio stereo system with vintage speakers too . Sound is excellent . clear clear like a 192 Kbps feel but it might probably be 128kbps cause usually online radio stations give u that .
I even compared it with my IPhone 6s on the same stereo system . I did not find any noticeable difference maybe the iphone is 2% clearer but I don't notice it at all . .
I also have the moto g2 . Will compare that too since some people here say their old moto g seemed better regarding quality of output
In short I think the moto g4 plus has a good sound output . I wish I knew the specs like what sound card is in if it has 3dac or not like the iPhone 6s
Maybe your phone is damaged.
I compared my Moto g4 with a DVD-a player. Used the same file of a dsd track. Connected the phone to the amp via RCA. No difference.
Hi, which one do you think is the best external microphone for this Moto One Vision?
Best regards
