Hello everyone! I used to play in my old LG 2 Mini games like Tomb Raider 1 and Tomb Raider 2. The game in some places, more open areas had a few frames drops. That was only with full details settings. In the middle details this no longer happened, run at full speed. I bought the Moto G4 Plus, thought it would have a better performance, but it turned out to be worse than a 2014 device (in my country) with 1GB of Ram and a Quad-Core processor. I really can not understand ... It is only my device or does anyone else have this problem?

Have a look at here for benchmarks https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/rom-benchmarks-t3575807 You can play heavy games for sure, some people do it,but you can compare the specs of your phone with others and see that the cpu isn't that suitable then others. It's not a high end device. Keep this in mind!

Yes, I know it's not a hi-end device and is not the best for gaming, but ... a 2014 device with a lower hardware could do better ... anyway I did a benchmark on AnTuTu v6. 2.7 and my score was 43620 running on LineageOS 14.1-20170918, stock kernel. I really do not take seriously benchmark results, I'd rather use it to prove it. This one goes to my mother, I'm going to change my smartphone, going back to LG .... Thanks!
