Moto G 5G review

About half a year after the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus, the company released the more affordable version - the vanilla Moto G 5G. The newer device is almost...

Handling and grip are nice considering the size.

Not very competitively priced.

Unfortunately, it's hard to give the Moto G 5G our full recommendation in the presence of more affordable and sometimes more competent midrangers. As the price drops over time, the Moto G 5G could potentially become a pretty sweet deal but not just yet.

Motorola Moto G 5G (2022) Review

More storage than most phones at this price ; Decent everyday performance ; Large screen ; Headphone jack ; Good battery life

Mediocre cameras ; Limited software updates ; No NFC ; Chunky bezel

The 2022 Moto G 5G sits in the middle of the market at $400, delivering reasonable battery life, a large screen, and decent performance, but similarly priced phones offer greater value when it comes to camera quality and software support.

Moto G 5G Review: $400 Phone Has More Storage Space Than You Might Need

One of the cheaper Android 12 phones available also includes so much storage space.

256GB of space for the price is a great value ; Decent phone performance ; Headphone jack

Photos and video lack detail ; No NFC ; Short Android update timeline

Motorola Moto G 5G review: a tough sell

You've got better options.

Excellent battery life ; Great overall performance ; User-friendly software

Low-res screen ; Only one useful rear camera ; Quirky typing experience

The Moto G 5G features a big 6.5-inch screen, a healthy 5,000mAh battery, and great performance. But for its $399 price, it’s easy to make a case for spending a little more on a really good midrange phone.

Moto G 5G (2022) review: How far the budget king has fallen

The Moto G used to be the go-to choice for budget phone value, but the 2022 model is a shell of past handsets' greatness. While the battery life is good, the subpar performance, slow charging, and d

The Moto G 5G (2022) definitely has good battery life, but I don’t think there’s anything else good about this phone. You’re safe skipping this one.

Moto G 5G Review: Does Cheaper Price Tag Save The Day?

The Moto G 5G undeniably takes the crown for the cheapest 5G smartphone available in the Indian market. The company has tried to live up to the expectation of the masses looking for a mid-range device which goes easy on the pockets.

5G enabled smartphones under Rs. 25,000 price mark ; Big FHD+ display with a punch-hole design ; 5,000 mAh battery with 20W fast charging ; Stock Android experience

Average camera performance ; Single RAM and storage option

Moto G 5G Review

India is known to be a highly price-sensitive market. And when it comes to smartphones, we all are extremely value-sensitive too. We want the best bang for the buck. As such, we have stiff competition (from the business perspective) and several choices...

Powerful performance ; Future-proof connectivity ; Stock Android experience ; Prolonged battery life

Absent high-refresh-rate and AMOLED display ; Tough for one-handed operation

When the Moto G 5G price was announced as ₹20,999 in India, it took me by surprise. It was a more aggressive move by the company than I had anticipated. For the sticker on the box, you are getting a competitive mid-ranger that reasonably balances the...
