I'm using a dual SIM, then I can't access my sd card. Is it because I have two SIM cards In the phone or is it something else?

Is it better than the moto g generation 3?

Asked by Rajj Tunka from india on 12th Jun 2016
In a general review does it beat it?

Reply by Ash from Uk on 12th Jun 2016
The moto has full HD where the j5 is only 1280, just the j5, s amoled more than makes up the difference. The moto is better made with a metal chassis while the J5 is plastic. The Moto has a built in battery while the J5 is removable. Both great phones I prefer my j5 whilst the wife prefers her moto g 3rd gen. The J5 is slightly faster and lighter the moto weighs the same as a brick and the J5 has a better call quality but the moto has two speakers which sound great.

Reply by S21 from UK on 13th Jun 2016
Actually both phones have 1280 x 720 pixel screens, but as Ash says, the Super AMOLED display of the J5 is superior.

How do I answer phone?

Asked by Rosemary from England on 15th Feb 2016

Reply by Thomas from UK on 15th Feb 2016
When someone calls you a screen should pop up. It has the name and the number of the person calling you and underneath there are also two icons: a green phone and a red phone. To ignore the call you just hold down the red one. To answer the person hold the green one and it should work. Then you just hold it to your ear and talk as you normally would. Hope that helps.
