Known Issues & Fixes
| Issue | Solution / Fix |
|---|---|
| Some users reported the phone lacks an official IP rating for dust/water resistance despite competitors offering one at a similar price. | Not fixable; treat as splash-resistant only and avoid submersion, as there's no IP68/IP67 certification on this model. |
| A number of owners noted Motorola's software update cadence slowed noticeably after the first year, with security patches arriving late. | Not fixable via user action; check Motorola's official update policy before purchase if long-term software support is a priority. |
