  • Stylus has noticeable latency and lacks advanced features like pressure sensitivity or air gestures found in premium alternatives.
  • Display is an LCD panel with some color temperature issues and limited viewing angles.
  • Low-light camera performance is a mixed bag, with blurriness and noise in some shots.

Verdict

The Motorola Moto G Pro (4GB + 128GB) is a mid-range smartphone defined by its distinctive built-in stylus and clean Android One software experience. Key specifications include a 6.4-inch Full HD+ IPS display, a Snapdragon 665 processor, and a versatile triple camera system featuring a 48MP main sensor, 16MP ultra-wide action cam, and 2MP macro lens. The 4000mAh battery provides reliable all-day (up to two days light use) endurance, and it also features dual stereo speakers with Dolby tuning and NFC for contactless payments. Main pros are the unique, integrated stylus for notes and sketches, the excellent value for money with a good main camera, and a clutter-free, near-stock Android experience with guaranteed updates. Cons include an aging chipset that shows some performance stutter with heavy multitasking, the ultra-wide lens is limited to video recording only (no ultra-wide stills), slow 15W charging compared to rivals, and a less premium plastic build with only basic water-repellent (not waterproof) protection.
