Immanuel July 16, 2022 at 04:46 PM I have been reading a lot of reviews about which is better between the M16 and the G16 and it has been really tough picking one over the other. But I like how the M16 looks, especially the screen. How wide it is...but they say the G15's battery is miles better. 😫 +18 Reply
