Moto G 3rd Generation was one of the best Smartphone , until Marshmallow ruined it !

Few months back Motorola shared a information with us that " Moto G 3rd Generation breaks previous Moto G's sales record " , Motorola also added that it was the one of the Motorola's most sold smartphone .

Moto G 3rd Generation was launched back in July 2015 and I bought it Instantly just after first release . The Smartphone came with Stock Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS ( Motorola usually uses Pure vanilla Android for best performance ) and yes the performance was incredible in comparison with other smartphones , the battery was literally amazing and at this Cost ... Any Smartphone cannot beat Moto G 3rd Generation in terms of performance , quality and specifications  ( at that time ) .

All was Going well , Moto G 3rd generation was giving an amazing battery backup , one can usually spend a day playing games , listing music , surfing on web and chatting etc ... after charging it approx 100% . 


Moto G 3rd Generation was one of the best Smartphone , until Marshmallow ruined it !


The Day when Marshmallow update came , I wasn't that much excited to update my smartphone , but I updated it to 6.0 just to make a review of Marshmallow update effect on Moto G 3rd generation . 

Read it Here - Motorola Moto G 3rd Gen : Before and After Marshmallow Update


After updating my Moto G 3rd Generation to Marshmallow , It started heating just after normal use , the battery life became terrible ( One have to charge it two times a day ) , UI was a little bit laggy , External SD card was not accessible and many worse changes were that that covered the Good changes . 

The thing was , one cannot even downgrade it to Official Lollipop 5.1.1 ( without unlocking bootloader , rooting and flashing lollipop rom ) .

After few months , I got used to of using Marshmallow 6.0 on Moto G 3rd Generation then got a new big update of Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow and that was just like " icing on a ruined cake " . 

Also read - Moto G 3rd Gen , Marshmallow 6.0.1 vs 6.0

Wifi and Screen ate my 60% Smartphone's battery , Moto G 3rd Generation started heating badly ( The Temperature of Screen becomes too high after a normal use ) , Ghost touch issue was there and yes now i can say " Moto G 3rd Generation was one of the best Smartphone , until Marshmallow ruined it ! " .

The change is not always for Good ! Share your experience of Marshmallow update on Moto G3 by Commenting below !


Moto G 3rd Generation : Android 6.0 vs Android 6.0.1

Moto G 3rd Generation ( AKA Moto G 2015 ) comes with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and was updated to Android 6.0 Marshmallow few months back . 




Recently Motorola rolled out Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update for Moto G 3rd generation , which was the next huge update after Android 6.0 .

Android 6.0.1 comes with few changes over Android 6.0 Marshmallow . Though Android 6.0.1 seems to be last Marshmallow version , but it contains many major bugs ( which need to be fixed ) . 



So , In this post I will be pointing out the difference between Android 6.0 and 6.0.1 . 


Moto G 3rd Generation : Android 6.0 vs Android 6.0.1 -


Battery -


Android 6.0 Marshmallow Battery life vs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Battery Life



After Marshmallow 6.0.1 update the Battery life got terrible , Battery will be draining a lot faster than even Android 6.0 Marshmallow. I mean even Marshmallow 6.0 was eating A lots of battery over Lollipop . And 6.0.1 just came to make it more worse !

On Android 6.0 Marshmallow ,When Charged Battery to 100% , Battery lasted for 1 day, 1 hours, 3 minutes , After a normal usage .
Android 6.0.1 MarshmallowWhen Charged Battery to 100% , Battery lasted for 15 hours, 43 minutes , After a normal usage .

WTH ? Seriously ? Android 6.0.1 just made the battery life worst !



Dialler -

Android 6.0 Marshmallow Dialler vs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Dialler


The new Marshmallow 6.0.1 Dialler is almost same as Android 6.0 Marshmallow Dialler . There is nothing new but the Name Text is Appearing a bit Bolder .



USB Computer Connection -


Android 6.0 Marshmallow USB Connection vs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow USB Connection

Android 6.0 Marshmallow has a dark interface popup for USB connection option and Android 6.0.1 has a light interface popup for USB connection with some information about the type of connection ( PTP , MIDI , etc) .

Though This time you don't have to format your SDcard in order to access it from your Desktop .


Some other changes of Android 6.0 vs Android 6.0.1 includes -


  • Calculator is improved with some additional option ( Inverse , DEG etc ) .
  • Chrome app has been automatically updated .
  • Double Tap Power button to access camera .

Pros and Cons of 6.0.1 Marshmallow update on Moto G 2015 -

  • Battery life is terrible .
  • Ghost touch issue 
  • Phone is heating too much 

Pros -


  • Camera shutter sound option added 
  • Double chop for flashlight and Twist for camera gestures are working faster . 

Overview -

The update literally made my Moto G 3rd Generation worst ! I mean not only 6.0.1 , even 6.0 was the worst update for Moto G3 . But still 6.0 was better than 6.0.1 . My Moto G 3rd Generation stood only for 15 hours after a normal use and The time it was running on 5.1.1 Lollipop , It made a score of running for 1 Day , 7 hours !                                                                                                                   What was Android 6.0.1 update ? It came with some fixes for the bugs that came with 6.0 only ? The update just Rectified only some of the mistake it caused in 6.0 Marshmallow .             My Moto G3 has just became worst after this 6.0.1 Update !

Motorola Moto G 3rd Gen : Before and After Marshmallow Update



Moto G 3rd Generation ( AKA Moto G 2015 ) comes with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and Recently Motorola updated it to Android 6.0 Marshmallow ( Stock Pure Android ) .

Marshmallow update enhanced Moto G 3rd Generation but there always 2 sides ( Good and Bad ) of everything !

So here's is a full review of Moto G 3rd Generation : Before and After Marshmallow Update -


User Interface -

Motorola Moto G 3rd Gen : Before and After Marshmallow Update

Motorola only uses Stock Android , So Android 5.0 Lollipop and Android 6.0 Marshmallow are almost identical in terms of User Interface .

In fact According to performance , Marshmallow is more smooth over Lollipop . In addition to , Marshmallow has new animations , new Launcher  , System UI tuner , Now on Tap and many more changes over Lollipop .


USB Computer Connection -

While in Marshmallow We will be having Advance options while Connection our Smartphone to Computer , i.e Charging , MTP , PTP and MIDI .

After Updating Moto G 3rd Generation to Marshmallow One will not be able to access External Sdcard through Computer ( It Might be a bug ). 

Solution - Format your Sdcard ( External ) and then try accessing it through Computer .

Geek Benchmarks -

Geekbench 3 Lollipop Vs Marshmallow ( Moto G 2015 )

Geekbench 3 is used to measure the full potential of device's processor , Marshmallow really increased the performance as well as potential of Moto G 3rd Generation .


Battery -


Battery Life Lollipop Vs Marshmallow ( Moto G 2015 )

Moto G 3rd Generation takes approx 2 hours 10 minutes to get fully charged from 1% to 100% on both Android Lollipop and Marshmallow .

After Marshmallow update the Battery life got terrible , Battery will be draining a lot faster than Lollipop after Marshmallow update . It can be seen that WIFI is eating a lot ( approx 40% ) of Battery in Marshmallow .

On Android 5.1.1 Lollipop ,When Charged Battery to 100% , Battery lasted for 1 day, 7 hours, 26 minutes , After a normal usage .

In Marshmallow it lasted only for 1 day, 1 hour, 3 minutes . 


Dialler -


Dialler Lollipop Vs Marshmallow ( Moto G 2015 )

The new Marshmallow Dialler has some advance settings and new Recents Style , that is better than Lollipop's Recents . 


Pros and Cons of Marshmallow update on Moto G 2015

Pros -


  • Smooth UI
  • Better RAM management
  • Now on Tap
  • Expandable Storage 
  • Advance USB connection Options

Cons -

  • Battery life is terrible 
  • Can't access Sdcard from PC ( Though it can be fixed )
  • Double Chop For Torch Isn't working that easily !
  • No option to Mute Camera Shutter Sound .

Marshmallow is good , but not for Moto G 3rd Generation ! Moto G 3rd Generation was always better in Lollipop . All One wants is a great battery life and For now Marshmallow can't provide that . May be that will be fixed in 6.0.1 Update . 

All I can say 5.1.1 Lollipop was better than 6.0 Marshmallow on Moto G 3rd Generation !
