Motorola has officially revealed that it would soon be releasing two new smartphones that are affordable. These are upgrades for the well-liked Moto G Power and Moto 5 5G smartphones. Though they are iterative revisions, the next handhelds don’t completely reinvent the wheel, but they do have some respectable specifications that are worth mentioning.
The 2024 Moto G Power has a 50MP camera system with image stabilization technology, Dolby Atmos dual speakers, and a 6.7-inch FHD+ 120Hz display. The device has a 5G network, a MediaTek Dimensity 7020 CPU, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of internal storage with a microSD card, and a 5000mAh battery with 30W rapid charging. When it comes to web browsing, light gaming, and streaming media, this will undoubtedly do the trick.
The new Moto G Power even features a fingerprint-resistant back cover made from vegan leather, which the company says provides a “stunning, premium design and comfortable feel.” This phone is coming to Cricket first, on March 22, before an unlocked version hits traditional retailers on March 29. It’ll cost $300.
The Moto G 5G includes a slightly smaller 6.6-inch 120Hz display, Dolby Atmos stereo speakers and a 50MP camera system complete with a macro lens. As the name suggests, this is a 5G-capable phone with a Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 processor and 4GB of RAM. Just like the G Power, there’s a 5000mAh battery with quick-charging. It ships with 128GB of internal storage, but there’s an expandable microSD slot.
The updated Moto G 5G will be available at T-Mobile and Metro on March 21, with wider availability starting on May 2. It costs just $200. Motorola also recently released a refresh of the G Play smartphone, which is priced at $150. The company sure does love its G series phones.
