Moto G 5G | 2024 | Unlocked | Made for US 4/128GB | 50MP Camera | Sage Green

Fantastic phone. I've had two other model years of the same before, and this was easy to adjust to. You just can't beat this 2026 set of upgrades -- extra water resistance, military toughness grade, and solid grip feel. The battery lasts (and to conserve phone use, I use my older deactivated phones on my home wifi for weather, music subscription app, game apps, etc.). The recommended phone case I bought from Amazon (which actually said 2025 model) works perfectly for this 2026 phone, a leather-like magnetic flap with metal plate embedded. The rep at my phone carrier device was familiar with this phone model, actually favors it even though it is less common, and was able to transfer my settings and apps to it. He commented that I got it for such an amazing price point, and it's truly been affordable even in prior years. Yes, I've dropped my past ones of this model many times, got it accidentally splashed, and though the case saved it as well as having the melded-on glass protection (which the carrier baked on for me, in less than 5 min.), eventually, the the audio and mic will get just slightly intermittently janky from taking the hits. But we're talking about a few y-e-a-r-s of durability that's nearly perfect... with these added protections of the cover and screen. I'm very happy with this 2026 phone's size for my purse and hand, am impressed that they upgraded the durability, and am good with the audio, speed, and overall performance. Like my older models of same, it also still has the fingerprint recognition on that side button. That reallllly saves time for logging into apps and so forth, though of course a code can also be used. The plug port is also sturdy. I'm pleased, I find the price highly acceptable, and I wouldn't buy any other phone. This is an excellent value and is just right for me.

I have/had a Google Pixel 7 for which I paid approximately $900. Google broke it with the Android 16 update. (You cannot see who is calling and a text box does not bring up the keyboard, so you cannot send a text.) I wanted an inexpensive replacement while I pursue a remedy with Google. I have since bricked the phone. The SIM cards for the two phones are not compatible. The simple solution is to connect to WiFi and install your phone company's app, which then installs an eSIM. Who knew? Once connected, the phone updates to Android 15, so it is only one version behind. I am a retired executive and don't use my phone too often. I have Parkinson's, which makes everything a challenge on a small device with a virtual keyboard. My "command center" is an ultra-powerful desktop running Linux. I do not use the phone for social media, scheduling or email. I just need the basics. The Motorola is at least as fast as the Pixel, has far superior battery life and the screen (which is slightly larger) seems sharper. Call quality is the same. I am getting an all-bar connection to 5G, which is one bar better than the Pixel. Photo quality is about the same. The Motorola seems a bit lighter and is thinner. Never again will I drop almost a thousand dollars on something that might last 2 to 3 years. Doing so is insane. Android is Android. At this price, you cannot go wrong. BTW, I highly recommend Google-Fi, which is loaded with features and very economical. It also connects my LTE watch, which has the same phone number as the phone at no additional charge (both devices ring at the same time).

The phone is awesome it's fast it's smooth more options and features in the interface than you can imagine. The RAM boost works really good. I upgrade from a 2022 model and I am very very happy. The software updates around point I've only had the phone 3 weeks and it's already updated twice with the security updates. The fingerprint reader works excellent. The screen is super responsive don't waste your money on a Samsung. Samsungs are not phones anymore they're bloatware hardware. I'm super pleased with the phone. The battery lasts all day and I also use my phone for work and I'm on it all day and then I'm at home and I'm on it for a minute or two or whatever and I'm lucky if I use 50% of the battery. This is an upgrade from a 22 model. Speech recognition is on point. And administrative features and settings are already activated and accessible unlike a Samsung where you have to go through hurdles to just get into the administrative modes and then they still lock you out of the very features not on this baby they let you do it all. And if and if you're someone who streams a lot of music like I do with my Motorola the new Dolby Atmos interface is awesome and even allows a custom profile and then if you want to fine tune it on top of that go into administrative settings and fine tune your sound output which I absolutely love. The screen is responsive and the Bluetooth connectivity is like next level. And I would never ever get a good Wi-Fi connection in my garage now with this baby no problem connects every time which I also appreciate.

I bought this after my Motorola razr 2023 broke. I've had and used this phone for a year now and I have alot of information. First off this phone is a high quality phone for a budget phone from the vegan letter back. The design and looks are good, better than the moto g stylus 2022 which had a horrible camera placement in my opinion. I don't have a opinion on durability however I did spill drinks on it, like almost the entire screen was splashed with water and it still works after cleaning it. I recommend a phone case like literally any other phone because it protects the phone, I have kept the phone case on mine and it still looks fresh like it came out of the box. Only very tiny scratches on the corners but it doesn't ruin the phone at all. ------- THE ONLY ISSUE I HAD was when I had way to many apps open, sometimes it is slow or freezes apps, but when I restart it, it stopped. (Restarts are needed for any phone to prevent glitches anyway) But sometimes it is a pain trying to do a certain task and it takes forever to load on certain times. Thats what took a star out of my review. ------ In general, this is a great budget phone, it has a lot of customization for how the UI looks, and it uses android 14. So if you want a phone that works with everyday tasks, this is the phone for you.

The G Power 5G 2024 continues the reputation of the G series of being bang for buck and reliable. This is a 4th Moto G phone to add to our household, all working like new since 2022. I need phones for communication and a road warrior tool. Faster speed always helps. Over a week, its a solid performer out of the box, and lives up to the advertised tech spec. No bugs or glitches. I'll touch items not mentioned in other reviews, and address some criticisms. The 2024 its a substantial upgrade from prior Power Models and SoC is faster than the 2025. Geekbench score shows its speed and its easily noticeable in use. If you prefer OLED screens, the Stylus 2024 is equally well made and slightly better hardware, for $70+ more, or more IP proofing, the 2025 is $120 more. Its faster CPU, 120 refresh rate, more RAM, and 5G are power hungry, you'd expect runtime to shorten, as it has the same 5Ah battery of the series. Luckily, Android 15 has better power management which are implemented well and options to save even more. With these, battery life is as good or better than my 4G only phones without sacrificing performance. Its a key reason I didn't mind a 5G phone now, as early 5G phones suffered this issue. The 2024 has a battery wear saver by limiting charging to 80% SoC which I previously emulated using aftermarket apps. It fast charges faster than my prior Moto phones which uses Turbo Power. I migrated my prior phone with the phone's built in tool, connect both with the supplied USB-C cable and it "cloned" the phone automatically. It copied everything, including desktops and Android configurations, such as fingerprints, Moto Actions and Camera settings which didn't happen on my last upgrade in 2022. I did have to re-log chat apps and configure non-gmail email. After the phone finished initialization, it installed all prior firmware updates up to Feb 2025. It was over 6, and took 6+ hours but the phone could be use while it updated. LCD is close to and as clear as the stylus pOLED 2024 in dpi, so images are as sharp, but pOLED is much brighter and has greater dynamic range, particularly viewed in sunlight. Its dual SIM and easily switched to either, allowing full customization to each SIM, one SIM card and another eSIM. Wifi is still 802.11ac, 300Mbps, similar to the 2022 Stylus, tested with Ookla. Its USB-C jacked but 2.0 speed. Wifi Calling works on both SIMs. I put a 256GB microSD, formatted and transferred all the photos in the phone carried over by the migration to the card. The camera works well, but I haven't compared its quality to better phones. It has great stereo sound, bluetooth connectivity, and plays 4K videos perfectly. I do not play games, use NFC, or wireless charging, so did not test its capability here. In sum, I'd easily buy this phone again and give its successor, priority.

Moto G Power 5G 2024 Received new unlocked phone, put my Boost Mobile sim in turned it on and used the included usb cable to transfer the files and settings over from my previous phone, a Moto G Fast from 2021. (I did not have contacts, photos, etc. backed up to the cloud) It works good. Had it 5 days and so far it is great for the price. Update: Now just skip to the end. My ringtone assignments were not transferred from the old phone - all using the default. I had to go manually add mp3's as ringtones and assign them to individuals. Also my alarms the same thing. It upgraded to Android 15 and I'm not sure how I like some things about Android 15 compared to the Android 11 that I was using previously. Eventually Android will be more bloated and full of idiotic (dis)improvements that hamper you than Windows if it isn't already. I really like the Moto Gestures but not a fan of the power button being reconfigured by default. The camera seems ok but no better than the 4 year old one with many less megapixels. Didn't notice anything new in the camera software or photo editor from the 4 year older one. Not sure but I think that I took some pictures that were verified with the shutter sound but then no pictures were in the album. I am saving camera pics to the micro sd card. I will keep an eye on this to see if its an actual issue. No charger/power plug is included. No USB A to USB C cable is included. A USB C to USB C cable is included. Good for phone to phone transfer or if you have a USB C female plug or PC/Tablet with USB C port. So I am using my 4 year old charger and cable even though I don't think its rated for as quick of charging as the new phone. I may have to get a 30W charger plug and cable or 15W charging pad. Its been a few months now. The phone still works good. As with all phones and connected devices now, the apps on it collect and send a lot of data on your wifi and using your bandwidth and data cap. I've been using the Gemini AI that comes up when you press the power button. Its hit or miss and you always have to know when to tell it its wrong and then it says "oh, you're right, I'm sorry". It uses much, much more power so a charge that would last 2 days normally will last, literally, 3 or 4 hours of chatting with the Gemini AI about anything, useful or not. Google keeps insisting that I backup my photos and such to their cloud but I don't want to - its not secure and they haven't paid me to use my data for training their AI that they are using to make billions of dollars off of as they jettison more and more employees, bankrupting the whole system, so why should I give it away for free? No, I just copy them to my PC instead, its much, much more private and secure. No need for a secretive shady middle man making like Igor stealing people's corpses in the night LoL. If Google wants data for training purposes we can discuss payment and usage terms. Until then, greedy hands off! OK so the last time I used my phone I was met with a notification from Android that my age could not be verified and so it changed parental controls and other settings on my phone. It did not give any other info. Coincidentally, the next time I went to YouTube on my PC, a message popped up that said my age couldn't be verified by Google AI so it is treating my account as a child account. If I didn't like it, send a copy of my driver's license to prove my identity and age. So it doesn't take a crystal ball to see the connection and know Google has treated me like a child and locked me out of my own phone based upon faulty AI output. Is this the Twilight Zone? I don't know but I'm not sending a copy of my license anywhere to fix Gemini Ai's mistake. I am online ordering an iphone now and thought I'd also update this review to let people know about Android and Google's ability to change settings on your own devices based upon some faulty AI logic or glitches or hallucinations or whatever they choose to call it. I call it my life.

So far, it is working well. One complaint, the keyboard hide arrow was blocking the extra symbols key. To fix, make your keyboard a floating keyboard and size accordingly. The screen is bright and clear. It is peppy and a great upgrade from his old brick of a tablet. He writes and uses text to speech a lot. So far, it has worked very well for voice typing. Seems to scroll internet well and load quickly, webpages and or apps. Hopefully, this phone will last and be a good, cheaper option than the big two for my teenager's first phone. I bought a case and screen/camera lens protectors for it, too. For under $300.00 for all of it, this is a good budget-friendly option. Next will be to add it to my cell plan.

This is a great budget phone, 5G super fast. I was highly impressed but had to return. There is this one pre-installed software called 'Glance' that popped up on my home screen. Now I would not care if this was one of those free government phones, but I did pay 129.99. I tried everything to un-install, I forced a stop, disabled it, even went into advanced system settings. It worked for a day, but then Glance would pop up again. It just annoyed me, to the point where I had to return it. Maybe it doesn't bother most people, but it annoyed me.

Didn't come with a charger though.

Llegó en tiempo y forma, totalmente libre para ser utilizado con cualquier Operadora (TELCEL en mi caso) y funcional, la única pega que le encontré es que ya no incluyen el eliminador sólo el cable de datos

Well i have previously bought motorola phones from Amazon, and i have never had a problem, till i ordered the Moto G 5G, It will not work in Australia, so i am now stuck with a brand new phone, that i cannot use!!

Was NOT unlocked.......returned item only to find it is now "lost in transit"...... What an inconvenience this is. I am still waiting for a resolution to the problem. Unhappy customer.

My son loves this phone. It works great for all the apps has a good amount of storage and is a decent price.
