Motorola Moto G Power 5G | 2023 | Unlocked | Made for US 4/128GB | 50 MPCamera | Mineral Black

Everything works fine. Very solid phone. Supports 5g. What's to complain?? Well, for me it's the charge speed. In this day & age not having fast charging is a sin. I will be keeping the 2023 version as a backup phone or might just return it. Just ordered the 2024 version which supposedly supports fast charging & wireless charging. Been charging this phone since I got it & it's been about 3 hours or so. I went from 40% to 61%. Literally as I'm typing this. Just had to let people know since no one talked about it at all. If this isn't an issue for you, then this phone is your perfect phone. Otherwise I use my phone a lot so needing a full 5-6 hours to fully charge your phone daily is not ideal for me. Most reviews say Battery life seems to be quite good. Just the charge process seems bad. For me at least. I like to go out occasionally & knowing my phone will not easily charge fast should it hit zero doesn't put me at ease. For example like camping & using GPS or even using it to play music. In my experience phones will eventually die after a full day regardless of battery life. Meaning it will take at least 3-4 hours to hit 0% to 20%. Sorry, for the long scenario review. I just wished this product said it wasn't compatible with fast charging. Although to be fair it never said it did. Hope this helps anyone to make a solid decision on buying the "2023" version of the Moto G Power. This is a solid phone, just a bit of a relic in charge technology. -Originally 3 Star Review **Update** 9/16/2024 2023 version works solid. Only been 2 days but I've gotten the gist of it. It's definitely going to be my backup phone. No changes since my initial review. Battery life is standard. I don't play gaming apps much anymore so I can't say how gaming potential really is. Maybe someone else will do a stress test in regards to that. Still I'm a bit bummed about the no NFC & charging seems to have gotten better. A bit inconsistent with charge speed, but maybe it's just me or it doesn't like my lightning cables. otherwise very solid phone. Overall review 8.5/10. Perfect if you aren't too nit picky about tech & current accessibility. 2024 Version. Yeah, as I thought. Just using it I can feel it's more up to speed with modern times. Has NFC. Wireless Charge Capabilities. Camera is pretty good. Solid overall. With all the bells & whistles on battery life is good. I mean could optimize it to performance mode but what's the fun in that?? Otherwise this is a straight upgrade from the 2023 version. I wouldn't call it perfect, but I can say I can recommend it without hesitation. Definitely better than the LG G8 Thinq I had & I absolutely loved the LG G series. Oh & having the fingerprint scanner to the side where the power button is located is a nice feature. Although screen shots are a bit awkward if you try to use traditional inputs. This phone offers a shortcut. When placing 3 fingers (imagine a dog/cat paw formation) on the screen it will take a screenshot. Although the emergency override with +Volume & Power button are both on one side so that's definitely annoying. Probably my only real con. 9.5/10, I would say it's a 10 but there are better phones out there. However for the Best bang for your buck. This is definitely a steal. -5 stars for both versions now that I understand what I'm working with. Unfortunate that I was unsatisfied with the 2023 version, but like I said. Would make a great backup phone.

I REALLY LOVE THIS MOTO G POWER 5G PHONE!!! I purchased my original Moto 5G in 2019 and for a very long time I was very hesitant in replacing it with a newer version. Even though I did consider briefly buying a Moto 7G Phone in 2022 but I just wasn’t impressed with the unusual changes Motorola made just to make it look and work “different”. However, when I first saw this 2023 Version I was very happy to see that a lot things were back to the way I remembered them before changes they made to the Interface were actually ones that I liked. Such as Swiping down on the Homescreen “twice” instead of “once” to Auto-Rotate the Screen, which I used to accidentally do all the time. I know that something like this is very minor but it’s just one of the many ways Moto rethought the Interface to be more user-friendly. IMPORTANT POINTS: This Phone has a Three-Day Battery Life, which is truly excellent! The feel, the weight and the look of it is really nice and it fits in my hand and pocket perfectly. The Display Screen and Refresh Rate is top notch and the Performance is Fantastic! Another BIG PLUS for me is that it has a 256GB of Storage as compared to 128GB. Also this Phone still has a Headphone Jack (Yay!) and it comes with a Phone Charger in the Box, which the 2024 Version does NOT have. THE ONLY NEGATIVE: For some reason Motorola thought that I wanted to have Tik-Tok and another App already Installed and it was difficult to remove it. By the way, I heard that the Moto g Power 5G 2024 has A LOT more of these Applications ALREADY installed, which is absolutely something I do NOT want at all. NOTE: I intentionally did NOT purchase the 2024 Version of the Moto g Power 5G partially because of the “reimagined” Interface, nor all of the massive amount of ALREADY installed “Bloatware” I’ve been reading about. Also, since I am very concerned about Security, I did NOT want the New NFC (Near Field Communications) which would include my Credit Card, Tap to Pay and other Financial information on my Cellphone. Although, I would have liked to have the New Wireless Charging Feature but it was something I able to live without.

Great phones with plenty of memory (256 GB). Has preloaded apps that you can mostly delete. Only thing I don't like is that sometimes it automatically add apps without my authorization and I can't find anywhere in the settings to stop this. Otherwise, Motorola made the Moto G Power 5G to be powerful as the battery lasts 2 days before needing a recharge. Overall, it is pretty responsive, but once in a while there is a millisecond delay in certain apps/games. With the large memory, it provides freedom to not have to worry how many pics or videos people send to you or saved, or how many apps you load. You can also add a microSD card for even more memory. One thing you cannot do with this model is that you can pay wirelessly (tap & go) using the phone. I am fine because I don't use such a feature as I do not like the idea of having my money accessible through a phone. This phone, however, has plenty of useful features. The best is that I can take a picture of my screen by just placing 3 fingers on the screen without having to hold down several buttons simultaneously. Love the phone with the best price if you buy from big retailers such as Amazon directly or straight from Motorola. The 2023 model is better than the 2024 or later models because it has a much larger memory.

This my 3rd Moto phone over the past 9 years. The bloat free OS is one of the attractions. I've never owed a "high end" phone and I'm really not sure what I'm missing. These so called budget phones work for me with speed and reliability. When I see an "uptime" of over 2000 hours, I know it's a rock solid phone. Really, the only time I re-boot is on an OS/security upgrade. The phone works well on Canada's Rogers network. I've had no issues crossing the border into the US. The camera works for my purposes and the Moto gestures are a great feature. The hatchet move to turn the flashlight on is used often as well as the rotate to start the camera. The only reason I replace these phones is the battery, like all phones they tend to lose their staying power after 3 years. I see no reason to replace batteries in old phones. I will continue to purchase Moto phones in the future.

I got this to replace my Motorola Power 2021 and it's night and day difference. It's no flagship phone, but every part of the phone is better, except that this model doesn't make battery life its sole priority. The other features, while nice, drain the battery somewhat faster. That said, I can still get through a day of moderate use without needing to charge. Everything works good. It is a very good phone, especially for the price.
