What we don't like about Motorola Moto G84 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • Uses an older Snapdragon 695 5G processor, which limits performance compared to newer rivals

  • Limited software support, with only one major Android OS update promised
  • Lacks wireless charging, which is standard for the budget/mid-range category
  • Some users report the audio volume via Bluetooth and the headphone jack is weaker than other models

Verdict

The Motorola Moto G84 5G features a 6.5-inch 120Hz pOLED display, a Snapdragon 695 chipset, and a standout 12GB of RAM paired with 256GB of storage.
