This Guy has one of the best Motorola Devices collection

 By Vaibhav Jain on May 05, 2016       

 

Some people collect few things and calls themselves a "FAN" and Some people go even beyond the word "FAN" and dedicate their whole life in collecting things .

Felipe Berhau is a huge Motorola fan, and has been ever since he was 11 year old . Unlike those of us who have given up Motorola and moved on to different Smartphone companies , 

Felipe still spends his free time getting information about Motorola and their Products . 

This Guy has more than 150+ Motorola devices which includes 100+ Motorola Phones and Smartphones . This is the biggest Motorola collection I have ever seen .

When I asked Felipe Berhau about his collection , He said -

It started when I was 11 (2006). I wanted to get the coolest phone at the time in Uruguay which was Motorola V360. After that I became obsessed with the beautiful designs and got Rokr E1, Razr V3, A1200 within the next year. But 2006/2007 was the time Motorola started falling in sales and their phones weren't loved anymore, so I thought: I have to stay with Motorola, I can't leave them now because there will be a time when Motorola is on top again.

After that I followed all the news, product releases, tried to buy all the new devices. I would get sad when they announced bad sales and revenues and I would celebrate when they had earnings. And through the last ten years I didn't leave them.

This Guy just proved the true terminology of word "FAN" and he has one of the best Collection of Motorola Devices in the World !

Here are some of the Images of his Collection -

We can't even count how many Motorola Devices he has ! #TrueMotorolaFan !

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

 By Vaibhav Jain on April 23, 2016       

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% . 

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

Android 6.0.1 bought many new changes , but again the changes was for bad ! 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 !
