Motorola Moto G 5G Plus review

With the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus, the company ushers its most popular series in the 5G era. The company aims to rekindle its old glory by delivering the...

Rather sturdy build.

No telephoto camera.

As things stand now it's trading blows with competitors from Xiaomi and Realme, which in itself is a great achievement for Motorola. The stock Android, 90Hz panel and great battery life will be enough to entice a lot of potential buyers, while a small...

Moto G 5G Plus review: this is how you do 5G

The Moto G 5G Plus from Motorola delivers high-speed mobile network performance to the middle class in a surprisingly affordable handset.

Fast performance with 5G-SoC ; Great display with 90Hz refresh rate and HDR 10 ; One of the best executions of Android ; Good camera performance under good lighting conditions ; Large battery capacity

Plastic housing without IP certification ; Image quality decreases sharply without light ; Poor audio with built-in loudspeaker

When using the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus daily, I ended up quickly forgetting that I am carrying a mid-range smartphone. This is mainly due to the fast processor and the speedy performance combined with the 90-Hertz display. Not only that, but the...

Review: Motorola Moto G 5G Plus | The Cheapest 5G Smartphone On The Market Motorola Moto g 5G plus

Motorola has stepped up its efforts by not only promising a cheap phone with the Motorola Moto g 5G plus, but performance as well.

Battery life! Good speed on the 5G connection. Unexpectedly good screen. Clean interface without unnecessary features.

Plastic and feels cheap. Not resistant to dirt and water.

Moto G 5G Plus review

The Moto G 5G Plus undercuts all 5G phones before it in terms of price, and it's one of Motorola's best G-series devices too.

Affordable 5G Feels relatively snappy to use Long-lasting battery

Fingerprint sensor doesn’t always work Cameras aren’t the best Irritating Google Assistant button

The Moto G 5G Plus is a good all-rounder with a better chipset, battery life and screen quality than many other devices at its price point. It’s also got a bigger screen than its siblings. The fact that it’s also 5G-compatible makes it an even more...

Moto G 5G Plus review: Super performance, super price

Looking for an affordable 5G phone? This Moto handset has everything you could ask for - but its the overall features, not just 5G, that help sell it.

Great battery life ; Big screen experience ; As much power as you'll need ; Speedy connectivity ; Super smooth software ; Affordable price point

Half the cameras are a waste of space ; The SIM tray design is poor ; Plasticky feel ; No in-display fingerprint scanner ; Do you really need 5G?

This isn't just a good phone because it offers 5G future-proofing. It's simply just a good phone for all it offers: a big screen, smooth software experience, and a sensible price. It looks a little plasticky and the cameras are an oversell, but...
