Moto G Power (2025)

Am I bothered by that? Moto G Stylus 5G 2025 Not for sale? Yes, yes, I am. This phone has better performance and He adds a pen for good measure. but Moto G Power 2025 (7/10, WIRED recommends) Still a good buy, especially for only $200. It features a beautiful green vegan leather texture on the back that adds to its appearance, paired with a large 6.8-inch display 120 Hz a screen.

Aside from that, there are three main reasons to buy this phone. First, it has Headphone jack. If you prefer to plug in your headphones, whether you follow the trend or strictly swear by audio, you’ll appreciate the jack. Secondly, there is a microSD card slot. This means you can expand the 128GB of built-in storage up to 1TB if you need the space. Both of these features have almost disappeared from today’s mid-range and high-end smartphones, which makes the Moto G Power very special.

The third reason is not necessarily necessary but convenient: wireless charging. It’s rare to find wireless charging in smartphones under $400, so it’s nice to be able to put the phone on Wireless charger Instead of hunting for USB-C cable.

The 5,000 mAh battery can last up to two days with average use, and the dual camera system can take some good shots. Performance isn’t particularly impressive. It will be able to handle the usual apps and lightweight mobile games, but you will notice some slowdowns here and there, and it may take extra time for the app to launch. It’s not frustratingly slow, just noticeable.

The other thing to know is that this phone will only receive another Android OS update to Android 17 (it’s currently getting Android 16), although it will get security updates for a little over two years. This is not a phone that will last for years and years. But if you need a phone now And your budget is limited (or you just need a second Burner phone), it’s hard to go wrong here.
