What we like about Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G 2024 (8GB + 256GB)

  • Excellent, long-lasting battery life (easily lasts a full day, often two days with moderate use).
  • Large, bright, and vibrant 6.7-inch pOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate.
  • Handy, integrated stylus for quick notes, drawing, and navigation.
  • Premium-feeling design with a vegan leather back and slim bezels.
  • Good overall performance for everyday tasks and casual gaming with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor and 8GB RAM.
  • Inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack, a microSD card slot for expandable storage, and NFC for mobile payments.
  • Decent camera quality in good lighting conditions, with optical image stabilization (OIS) on the main sensor.
  • Support for both 30W wired and 15W wireless charging.
  • Clean, near-stock Android software experience with useful Motorola-specific gestures.
  • Loud and clear stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support.
  • Durable build, with good scratch resistance and a water-repellent (IP52 splashproof) design.
  • Generally considered great value for the price, especially when on sale.

What we don't like about Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G 2024 (8GB + 256GB)

  • Limited software support, with Motorola promising only one major OS update and three years of security patches.
  • Underwhelming camera performance in low-light conditions and with zoom; some find the photo quality below average compared to competitors.
  • Performance is considered decent for the price but not a powerhouse, lagging behind some similarly-priced alternatives in benchmark tests.
  • Stylus is basic (passive) and lacks advanced features like pressure sensitivity or a remote button found on premium alternatives.
  • The vegan leather back panel can attract dirt and is difficult to keep clean for some users.
  • Does not include a charger in the box.
  • Handwriting-to-text recognition with the stylus can be inaccurate sometimes.
  • Video recording quality is mediocre, often capped at 1080p 30fps for the best stabilization.

Verdict

The Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) is a feature-rich mid-range smartphone defined by its integrated stylus and premium-feeling vegan leather design. Key specifications include a large 6.7-inch FHD+ 120Hz pOLED display, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a generous 256GB of expandable storage. The main camera system features a 50MP sensor with OIS, complemented by a long-lasting 5,000mAh battery that supports both 30W wired and 15W wireless charging, along with a traditional 3.5mm headphone jack. The main pros are its exceptional battery life, vibrant OLED screen, valuable stylus functionality, and the inclusion of premium features like wireless charging at a competitive price point. Primary cons are the merely average camera performance, an underwhelming IP52 water-repellent rating (not full waterproofing), and Motorola's limited software support policy of only one major OS update.
