Not recommend this Moto G56
Motorola G56 my experience - Pros 1. The phone itself looks very nice. 2. A decent camera. 3. Brilliant display 4. Good performance - Cons 1. The vibration motor like an old vespa every time it's vibrate. 2. The fingerprint button bearly works without need try 2-3 times and never have issues before with other phones. 3. Battery fails after getting android 16 and march security patch stop changing at all try different chargers and getting the same issue and decided to exchange it after set up the 2nd replacement and the phone getting updated with the android 16 same issue again I checked all the battery settings all was good charging 17%-23% around 60 minutes to reach 100% was in 5h 33 mins. No choice left to take another brand and the Honor phone work perfectly with any issue for now.

Great replacement phone
This is a brilliant replacement for my moto g7 plus as I didn't want a technical phone I just wanted one with similar specifications as my old one and this was it. It has a clear display and the battery lasts so much longer than my old one. It is very similar to my old phone so it was easy to navigate and it did come with some bloatware but this was easy to get rid of. I have only had it for six weeks but so far I am very happy with it.
