What we don't like about Motorola Moto G52 (6GB + 128GB)

  • Poor camera performance in low-light conditions, resulting in washed-out and undetailed images
  • Lack of 5G connectivity, which may affect future-proofing for some users
  • Occasional performance lags or stutters during multitasking or scrolling
  • Weak and noisy haptic feedback that feels low-quality or 'sluggish'
  • The back panel tends to vibrate noticeably when playing audio at high volumes
  • Limited long-term software support, typically receiving only one major OS update

Verdict

The Motorola Moto G52 (6GB + 128GB) is a mid-range 4G smartphone focused on multimedia consumption, featuring a vibrant 6.6-inch Full HD+ pOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate and dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support. It is powered by the efficient Snapdragon 680 processor, ensuring smooth performance for daily tasks, and packs a large 5,000mAh battery that supports 33W TurboPower fast charging for extended use. Photography is handled by a versatile 50MP main camera system, and the device runs a clean, near-stock version of Android 12. The main pros are the excellent AMOLED screen quality, impressive battery life, fast charging capability (charger is included in the box), and a sleek, lightweight, splash-resistant (IP52) design. Cons include the absence of 5G connectivity, relatively weak low-light camera performance, average gaming performance, and limited long-term software update support (guaranteed one major OS update to Android 13).
