Its incredible how good these budget Moto phones are. Moto has been doing this for many many years tho and its nice to see people catching on finally. I nabbed one of these a few days ago and honestly im blown away. I mostly just call, text, use youtube and record bite size clips of me making hiphop beats on my MPC for instagram stories. And the quality for all that is incredibly high. My one complaint is the 720P screen but it atleast records in a higher Resolution. Last night i realized the display can be set to 120HZ, dude i couldnt believe it! IVe owned 1000$ phones that couldnt come CLOSE to that. So its a trade off, but i spent 150$ at cricket wireless for this phone and the quality blows my expectations out of the water. I have never owned a smart phone with a 120HZ display, and now i can never go back to anything less. That smooth scrolling is a game changer. I honestly forget that its res is 720p, since its a phone its really not the end of the world since the screen is small. I bought Chrono Trigger last night and ive been playing it non stop all weekend. What a good buy. I only got it becuase my older phone suffered from me slamming it into the wall at work and i expected to come home with a trash phone for that money, instead i feel like i got away with stealing or something. Moto has no competition in this budget market, in america atleast.
Edit: I just realized this phone has Dolby Atmos access for the headphone jack. Bruh, ive spent 1000$ on more than one phone that didnt have that!
do you still love it
Yo that’s crazy I’m a producer also and I’ve been thinking about getting a phone to use to record and stuff
We just bought 2 of these today. Price at $149 now at BEST BUY!!!
Thank's man. I just got the phone and didn't look it up before. It's nice to hear that I picked up a good one. Great review 🙂
Love my Moto 5g 2023. Got it for 40$ for switching my number over to Cricket, and took the phone, not knowing what to expect. It has surprised my so many times that sometimes I forget that im using a mid level phone. Have had some nice phones and this one ranks near the top of my favorites list. A very nice and reasonably priced phone.
How does this compare to the G stylus 2023? What are the differences?
I spent $500 on my Samsung Galaxy A52 5G a couple of years ago and it has a 120 hertz refresh rate. Maybe 3 years ago or more you needed to spend $1,000 on a flagship phone for 120 hertz refresh rate but not in the last couple of years.
My friend just bought this Moto G 5G so I was curious to learn more about it.
Seems pretty basic overall but it's not too bad however I still prefer my Samsung Galaxy A52 5G personally.
Keep up the good work. 👍
Your videos are always informative.
Would love to see a comparison to the moto g stylus 5g 2023
I'm excited to see more about this
Is it stock android? And whats up with bloatware?
My 7-year-old Moto 4G began having old age technical glitches in 2023, so I ended up purchasing the 5G in early December 2023 at Best Buy for a year-end sale price of $199.00+. Unlike Kevin's, the accessories in the box included a DC wall charging adapter. Although somewhat longer and heavier than the 4G, all of 5G's features suit me just fine as I'm not a high tech geek.
So I just got this phone Kevin and I'm having a real hard time trying to get like apps are on there I just need like I'm just lost
Motorola made a pretty good improvement compared to the last generation.
Moto has had the best budget phones for about 8 years now. But yes, they keep getting better.
Is this 2nd gen?
How long does it charge since it's 15w only?
Thank you Soo much, this was VERY informational.
I got this phone today so far no problems I had a Moto g stylus 2023 had to return over three times due to apps disappearing and updates causing Bluetooth to fail keep in mind this is three separate phones and separate tests all had the same issue.
How do you charge it?
I just got this phone as an upgrade from the A11 for my daughter. Shes young so its only for talk and text and for pictures/watching videos. Its more than enough for a kid her age, and way better than what she currently has.
I don't know why these companies not providing a charger this is BS
Have you heard of capitalism its how companies make money so they will make you pay 30 dollars more to get a charger instead of just giving it to you
I know it's a hassle now buying the charger separately. But yea it's always business first.
@@DefiantFreedom7480there’s no excuse that just bs. Business first can kiss ass
It's like buying shoes and it doesn't come with shoelaces.
A new car with no spare tire or jack.
Yup lady tried selling me the wall adapter i said no since i had a couple extras
What type of glass ? Im assuming its not gorilla glass?
The display should have been FHD like G Power 5G
It's only $50 more
Yay Motorola!!! Should of gotten a 1080p
Kevin, i want a review of a phone, a PHONE, not a mini pc. could you talk about PHONE features? all you reviewers talk about is screen, battery and camera. what about signal quality? call sound quality? reception? battery time?
that depends more on your location and towers around you than the phone....and speakers have been beyond good enough for phone for while they are half way decent for music lol .
Can this phone work in Hong Kong ? Most carriers there use 4G 1800,, 2600, 900, some 2300. 5G 2100, 3500, 4700
My love for moto started at motto x I live this model now
720p is fine. It used to be considered hd. 1080 is ok also. Marketing verses personal experience. Be aware. Love video. Ta!
It's all high tech magic to me. I'm older and remember the "before". Not willing to spend the big money on these mini computers though. Very limited 5g in my location.
Should i buy this or 2024 version?
I've had mine for a couple days. Not sure why it takes HOURS to charge.
Nice seeing a 3.5mm jack and a SD slot still in 2023. The phone is about $50 bucks too much for the CPU performance and amount of RAM compared to my 9S bought a few years ago. Might be worth it if it has USB 3 and video out so it could also be an Android desktop with Ready For or like app.
The CPU should be good enough to emulate a few Game Cube games using Dolphin.
I have a Redmi Note 9S ($250 back shortly after launch) with the SD 720G with 6/128GB RAM/ROM and just got a Moto G100 with the SD 870 with 8/128GB RAM/ROM. Looks like the SD 480 is just a point or 2 tad below the 720G and about half that the 870.
I have issues with my Moto G100 where you can't disable raise to wake and prefer to wake only when pressing the power button. I also can't swap the back and recents buttons as there's, again, no option in there flavor of Android 12.
I agree
on sale now for 9.99
Dude, its worth it. I have cricket wireless so with my upgrade, i got this out the door for 150$. That was a STEAL! Dolby atmos from the headphone jack, 120hz display, SD card slot, its a steal. 4gb ram isnt the end of the world, i cant see it being an issue for ANYONE unless you play demanding games. The games i play on it tend to be classic rpg's like the old Final fantasy games on the play store and chrono trigger, and dude, with the 120hz they run butter smooth. I even loaded up Black Desert mobile version and its running as good as any other phone ive used in the last 2 years.
You are talking about running dolphin and emulating gamecube games, that is NO easy task even modern computers can STRUGGLE with that! That requires ALOT of fire power so if youre able to even do it at all, is incredible. Dolphins requirements are quite high even today. Thus far the only - i have is the 720p screen but since its a phone, its easily forgotten and the 120HZ display is IMHO a decent tradeoff. Id rather have 720p 120HZ over a 1080p 60hz display, no question. Especially since the main games i play on it are those 2d sprite classic JRPG's like FF, Chrono or Dragon Quest. Its INSANE that these moto phones are so cheap
@@jonathansoko1085 T-Mobile has a GREAT promo option going on right now where if you pay a $100 "credit" towards your account(goes toward your future monthly bills) then you can get this phone for FREE. Its what i just did, my S21 Ultra shit the bed in the middle of the night and i needed a "budget" phone quick. Told the dude at the store what i was looking and out of my options this seemed like a no brainer. $100, and I walked out not having to pay my cell phone bill now for atleast the next half a year, along with this phone in hand for FREE. For those that might not be able to do the math 15.99monthly bill x 6months = $95.. Make sure to turn on RAM BOOST to increase it from 4G of ram to 5G(only will work if you have available storage space). The 720p screen isnt a problem really, as the number itself usually suggest not so great quality though. However people need to understand at this screen size your not going to notice that much of a difference between 720/1080p. Having 120hz screen refresh rate is more important for fluidity and smoothness than pixel count in this particular situation imho(once you make the jump up from 60hz on anything whether it be a phone or monitor, its impossible to have a pleasant experience if trying to go back to 60hz). The phone is more than capable and im enjoying it more than i thought i would be, really enjoying gaining back features i really missed like 3.5mm headphone jack and *expandable storage* its so nice. Might be willing to give one of those up for NFC though.
I am pro-bezel. Why are you against it?
I saw it at TMO tday, IMPRESSIVE!
I'm glad it doesn't use a MediaTek chip. A 5MP ultrawide and a 90hz 1080p screen would've been nice additions though.
Honestly the 120hz is not a bad trade off
DOES THIS PHONE HAVE SCREEN MIRRORING OR SCREEN CAST FEATURE?
Yep and screen recording at least mine
Let's have a Nord N30 review.
It's available on Google fi for 50 bucks
Is it just me or does it look thinner?
This would be good for everyone.
This is One of the Few Smartphones Offered in Bright White
Looks more premium than the 2022 model. The 2022 feels so cheap to me. I might have to pick this up for cheap at Cricket..
What is 720p?
screen resolution
Just got this phone. Gonna switch it over right now. I'll let you all know how I feel about it. Paid $170 for it. I'm switching over from the Moto G stylus 2020.
Like how you can use the memory to boost your ram from the advertised 4gb ram to 8 gb ram helps I imagine!
Just go into system and go to performance
Does this phone support eSim?
yes
Just switched carriers and got 2 a14 and 1 moto for free.
I bought this phone a few days ago by total accident. So far I don't have any complaints. So far so good.
I thought this has the snapdragon 6 Gen 1 with 6GB of ram. Not the 480 with 4GB.
there many variations for same model with different prices
Thanks
Yo Kevin would you sell that one you have?
I paid $130 needed an emergency phone since I lost my old one lol I actually like it not bad I dnt use my phone for other then social media, text, and calls it does it's job for the price I learned phones shouldn't be to expensive
moto is a nice phone the problem with it is the support and updates
Yeah I've been a Moto man for several years now but I jumped ship and bought me a 2023 Samsung galaxy A13 5G for the very reasons you just stated ..... And I absolutely love the phone.
These phones are people that don't care about updates and specs...it's a great phone for $250
is there a flashlight
Yes
Who in their right mind who create a time logo/display like that. I just got this phone, it's SOOO not user-friendly.
The damn phone ringer is as loud as it goes and if I were on the street there's no way I would hear it. I can't even hear it from the next room.
I have 244 apps on my phone right now it is a moto g5 older model it has a 128 gbl.and i am using right now with a 128gb card. i am wanting a new phone. But NO WAY AM i Spending over or near $1,000(US) + for phone (Nope Not today) NOT EVER. so question is this the right phone for me? YES! i am on my phone ALL THE TIME ALL l Day😁.
Thank you
❤&💡 to All
Safe & Happy Holidays.
Happy Holidays to All ❤
One 5G ACE successor .?
One 5g ACE is 10 x better in every way
Not really. I think the 2023 Stylus 5G is the closest you can get to a "modern" version of that. It is $400 USD though.
@@caeruleum7 Yes I agree with on the 2023 stylus 5g I can't see paying $400 for it $300 would be a good price for it moto support is bad the the only thing about
This looks really good and may be my next phone, since I cracked the screen on my moto g power. I am hooked on moto gestures.
@@davidm5707 I like moto gestures as well I'm use moto stylus 2022 now when the price drop on moto stylus 2023 I may pick it up also
720p is crazy
It's a decent phone I got 1 on for 10 dollars on boost mobile
10 bucks? What the catch?
@@armando.velazquez
It was an upgrade no catch just on sale
@@armando.velazquezyou get a phone locked to boost. 🤷🏻♂️. There are probably ways to unlock it, but ...
Watch this on my Motorola 5g
These model names are confusing, lol.
You need to press the power bottom and volume up button turn off the phone.
No NFC
Overall the phone is really good I ordered it about a week ago from the Motorola website it took 3 days to ship which was nice.
The only two things I hate about this phone is the battery life. If you are on it all the time playing games or watching videos it might last you one day unlike the moto g 2020 which had around 3 days worth of battery life.
The second is the finger print sensor it is the most infuriating thing on this phone whoever thought it was a good idea to have the power button as the finger print sensor should be fired 😂. If you happen to hit the power button to shut the screen off and you don't move your thumb fast enough it will immediately turn back on. Unlike the 2020 version the finger print scanner was on the back of the phone. I might change it to just my index finger eventually if it keeps happening.
Also the audio speakers on the phone are really nice but for whatever reason, I have a $100+ dollar headset for listening to music and it doesn't sound right when connected to the phone. It doesn't sound bad or anything but something seems missing I've tried messing with the Dolby settings to correct it but had no luck.
Also the storage is a plus I'm pretty sure the guy in the video goes over it but if you buy it through the website you get a total of 256 GB of storage and I barely came close to filling the Moto g 2020 64 GB.
I’d rather take 1080p at 60 FPS then 720p at 120 FPS. And I’d take NFC over that macro camera.
Same
$3 through Google Fi. 64g storage. The stuff that is missing, I won't miss. First 5g phone. Last phone fell out of pocket while on the roof. Duh! Got a leather, rotating hip poach. It has a magnetic top flap. So phone and place to secure it, $16 total.
Do not put micro sd cards in your android aome sort of malware going around
how does this make sense? it a physical connection only what you put on the card goes into your phone
4:25 AAAAHHHHH
Hideous 😂
This a nice phone
Yes
just got sold this phone was one of the few i could get so sick of hearing its a lower end phone when it better fuckin notbe
yeah never heard of nfc. all i know is my brand new 2023 better be able to do all the shit any other phone can do today.
my current phone cant even read QR codes. android 9.
This ohones badass got it for free im cool with it
Man no Nfc, aggravating.
It the same shit that u get with the motto 2022
It's not 2023, I am currently using the moto g 5g and It was shipped to me by ups last year
Do you like it?
It is 2023, they made a new model from the one last year. Pay attention.
It's definitely the 2023 model...
720p is never acceptable
The camera is defective and highly pixelated. Very obvious when making video calls.
You know, because of how BAD moto is at naming their phones. ALL their line are so close in name, it makes looking up videos a nightmare its impossible to get what i want. Looking up gaming videos for each one is impossible
this phone takes forever to charge and will loose battery fast , and it's a glitchy piece of crap , and you can't use it when it's charging because I'll loose battery this phone's a 4/10
But for the cheap phone , it's ight
Whats chweny chweny? U mean 2020?
720 not amoled display 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh is actually a moto g53 5g in america
Green Line issue
Extremely Delayed Android Update
Pls stay AWAY from moto Phones
Worst phone I’ve ever bought. It made me go back to apple.
To anyone trying to get those types of phones those are trash better get a Samsung Galaxy or iPhone we bought two for me and my wife and after time they stop working as it should also the charger port its gets messed up super early,not wireless charge its a trash honestly camera its not that good also but yeah y'all get another one not this shitty ass phone
I just got me mine and this phone is better then my Iphone 12
