    Verdict

    The Motorola Moto G100 Pro (8GB + 256GB) is a powerful mid-range smartphone launched in July 2025, primarily for the Chinese market, featuring a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chipset and a substantial 6,720 mAh battery with 30W fast charging. Key pros include its vibrant 6.67-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with high peak brightness, excellent durability thanks to IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance and military-grade certification, and a capable 50MP main camera system. A potential con is its regional availability, as it is largely exclusive to China and known by other names like the Moto G86 Power in some global markets.
