    Hey guys,
    Not sure if this is the right place at all, but here's hoping.

    I know choice is a matterof opinion, however I need a hand.
    Haven't bought a new phone in a while, and currently have a Samsung Galaxy J7 after my S3 mini passed away :/

    I have the option to get an Samsung Galaxy A40 or a Moto G7 Plus.
    Since I am used to Galaxy's, I don't know which would be a better choice. Both have good specs (as far as I can understand them, that is. The modern day techical things move far too fast for me to keep up with), and the interface is fairly identical from what I have seen. However, as I said, I can't find much pros and con's about either of them so comparing is -for me- just comparing side by side and the specs have to do it, which are confusing for me as they don;t tell me much.

    Was wondering, if any of you could be of help.

    Thanks in advance :) Hope you all have a great week :)

    The two phones are very similar.
    But, overall, the Moto has slightly better specs. What stands out are the Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection, Fast battery charging 27W vs 15W. Although it costs about 50EURO more, I think it's worth it.
    Both phones have a non-removable battery. :mad:

    Here's a side-by-side comparison.

    Thank you for the link! Will look at it thoroughly when I am home in about an hour - currently at work :p
    What I briefly did see, was that the Motorola has an aluminium body, which I like a lot, knowing I can be a bit.. ehm.. clumsy (will always use a protective cover anyway - jsut inc ase).

    The non-removable battery seems to be a hype these days.. guess they have to earn cash somehow *sigh*

    Thank you :) Is good to be back - now hope to get my internet issues resolved, but contacted my ISP about that.Was already getting grey hair, but last month I got a few extra XD

    It's a great site to compare phones. But, take the reviews with a pinch of salt - there are always those criticizing trolls.
    And let us know what you buy.
    Good luck!

    Sure did bookmark it, always convenient for what ever reason - even good fodder ona rainy day ;)
    Reviews are often a bit.. trollish, some people sold their soul to a specific brand it seems, thus all other brands are devilish XD I generally tend to check the 3* reviews more, as they usually have pro's and con's listed unlike most of the 5* reviews.

    I will keep you posted, thank you again :D

    Opted for the G7 plus, and already totally like it!
    Made a little slow motion video of one of my budgies shaking his feathers, and it turned out better than I hoped.
    Device is quite easy to use, has nice extras in place but am not using those yet, want to know the basics first hahaha ;) No regrets thus far.
    Thank you again, for the link :)
