Welcome everyone I'm Ricky from tech talk and in today's video I will be
unboxing setting up and taking my first look at
the moto g8 power and this is from motorola so this
is their power edition so on the front here very bright logo
there from motorola moto g8 power down the left hand side we've just
got a bit of information here so this is just retail
information some key logos from dolby and also snapdragon processor
built in which is really great to see flipping around to the right hand side
we've got motorola coming around to the back you're going
to see the quad camera set up which is really great to see
two color options we've got the smoke black option here which looks really
nice the blue also looks really quite good in
the light as well which i've seen so it also says they're quite large
up to three days of battery so i'm looking forward to putting that to the
test ai powered quad camera system quite
interesting cameras this device has got also which i'm quite intrigued about
dual stereo speakers which are tuned by dolby so that makes it really
interesting for your audio experience and as i mentioned two color
options there so that's enough said around the box
let's jump into the box so lifting the lid up our device is sat
on top so i'm just gonna get it in a corner here and pull it out from this
corner so that's our device there let's see
what else we get inside here so inside here we've got some paperwork
so let's see what we've got so that's the side so we have moto g8
power and it says readme information here discussing the ports
and everything you need to know about your device
if you do need to know anything you know what to do drop a comment i'll be more
than happy to help a sim tool which is really handy then
warranty and safety information so that's paperwork there inside
we have got then a usb a to usbc i'm hoping now yes a usbc which is
great to see there do prefer to see a usbc all the time so
usb a to usbc for syncing and charging we also have a uk three pin plug here
just make sure you take off the plastic usb a connection there for charging up
our device and i think that's it is there any headphones prepped in under
there look you might get some headphones with
yours this is a press unit so sometimes some things go missing or sometimes not
everything is included let's put the lid back on
let's set that to the side and actually grab our device
so we're going to power on
and power button is down the right hand side comes with this clear case and like
i said it's a smoke black edition it looks really nice very bright
and vibrant actual color here on the display which
looks really nice you then also have your single front
facing selfie camera there a little cut out the
top left hand side and also
the m on the back is a built-in fingerprint sensor so it just said hi
moto there and then we're into the setup phase so let's go through the setup
phase together before we begin we've got vision
settings down here at the bottom and you've got accessibility options
font size i'm going to jump in and change quite quickly
just so i can then read everything back to you
so inside here we've got magnification you've got font size
display size select to speak and then talk back
it's really nice options to see in their very good amount of settings
as you'll notice it is running android and it's running android 10.
so we're going to get started so that's going to connect to the wi-fi
we can connect to the wi-fi select your one and then just connect to the wi-fi
copy apps and data so we can move data over and you can do this from an ios
device or you can do it from a previous google device just depending
which one you want to actually use i'm going to say not now i'd like to set up
as new i might choose a cloud backup that i
might have had from a previous device though
in future so now it's going to ask you to sign in with your google account if
you don't have one you can create one and you will need this to use all
the google services and applications that google have to offer
so simply just sign in or sign up so once logged in it's saying here you can
add to the phone number and you can use this for different services
on your accounts ricky west here so we've got about services
and agreements you have to agree to use your device next option is google
services and which ones you want to toggle on or off
i turn off the cloud backups there's just too many backing up
just go through them once and select which ones best suit you so next up is
asking us to select a screen lock you can choose a pin pattern or
password so i'm just going to choose the one
i've got now which is fine and then we can use the fingerprint sensor as well
built it in so now as i mentioned you can use a
fingerprint sensor which we're going to do it's located on
the back of our device so just by tapping that that moves into
the next step and all i'm doing is tapping
that little m you'll feel a strong vibrate if it doesn't work
and if it does work you'll see it move around and
also you'll feel a tiny little vibration
so you can also add another finger if you want to or you can tap
done then finally we've got anything else there's a couple of other options
here inside here with anything else you can
add another email account you can change the font size again you
can change the wallpaper you can review additional applications
and you can control information on the lock screen a new way
to navigate so it uses gesture control
and it shows you how to do that to give it a try swipe
up and then we're greeted with our home screen here and we're into our home
screen and away we go the first thing i'm going
to do though is turn down the brightness here it seems quite
bright so it's a little bit distortion with the camera there is that
yes that's a lot better so our device is all set up and ready to go and i'm
really looking forward to using the brand's new moto g8 power edition
so they bought out a range of different g8 editions but this is the power one
and they've stepped up a lot of the different processes and also
a lot of the specs so let's quickly just jump through them specs now so first of
all the display and what we're going to be looking at
all the time it's a 6.4 inch ips lcd display with a resolution of 1080 by
2300 that will give us a pixel density of 399
pixels per inch it's running android 10 and as i
mentioned it comes in a smoke black color so if i take off the case here
it's nice it comes with a free protective case that's great
you get this nice smoke black design on the back here which looks really nice
and again it's going to pick up the light and it's going to love
fingerprints mesh probably but we do have that quad camera system
on the back so let's just run through that for you
we have a 16 megapixel f 1.7 which is wide
you have an 8 megapixel f 2.2 telephoto lens
you also have another 8 megapixel f 2.2 ultra wide with 118 degrees field of
view so everything is going to get in your
shots really interested to see how well that works
and then finally you have a 2 megapixel f 2.2
which is a macro lens also offers the ability to record video in 4k
at 30 frames per second that's really nice to see here so let's just test
this actual fingerprint yeah quite quick there not the quickest
i've seen but yeah it's okay it's quite quick
but like i said there are other options on the market to choose from
but looking forward to actually using this device because of the power and
performance inside as it is rightly named the moto
g8 power it has the qualcomm snapdragon 665
which is 11 nanometer processor it's an optical
processor with multiple different speeds depending what you need
the device to do each gpu is an adreno 610
and it offers 64 gigabytes of internal storage and four gigabytes of ram
and you can use a micro sd card if you so wish to
it has a whopping 5 000 milliamp hour battery inside
which is really good and it offers 18 watts fast charging as well
obviously you might have to buy a separate plug for that as i mentioned
about the rear camera we're also having a front facing camera as i mentioned
here which is up here quite nicely hidden especially when you're playing
games or anything like this it's down in that bottom left hand
corner so this is a 16 megapixel f 2.0 wide
camera lens can record at 1080p as well in 30 frames per second so it's
really nice to see these options on here and i'm looking forward
to testing it out we're getting some messages coming through from vodafone so
a massive thank you to the vodafone team who supplied this device and i'm looking
forward to seeing how well it works and how much power and performance we can
get out of this device if you need any
further information or anything please feel free to leave a comment
or a query down below and i'd be more than happy to help for me ricky i'm
looking forward to jumping out and going testing the moto g8 power edition
