Reviews for the Motorola Moto G Power

90% Moto G Power review

The Moto G Power lasts even longer than its record-setting predecessor while costing the same amount. This is the budget phone to buy if you want great battery life — unless you get the newer Moto G Power (2021) instead.

80% Moto G Power (2020) review: More battery, less money
Source: Android Central English
With no baseline Moto G8 being sold in the U.S. starting in 2020, the Moto G Power sort of fills that void by offering a solid Android experience at an incredible price. The phone really stands out in the battery department, offering enough endurance for up to three days of use. Paired with a great software experience, fun cameras, and decent specs all around, the G Power packs quite the punch. That said, the lack of NFC and Motorola's infamous history with software updates could be reason to think twice before picking it up.

80% Moto G Power (2021) review: The battery life champ
Source: Tom's Guide English
Any sub-$300 phone is going to involve some compromises, and fortunately, the ones that the latest version of the Moto G Power makes aren't going to put many budget shoppers off. Yes, there are more powerful phones with better displays that don't cost that much more than the Moto G Power (2021). But the long-battery life of Motorola's phone continues to carry the day, especially for a phone that you can find for $250 or less.

80% Moto G Power review: All the battery life
Source: Neowin English
If you're looking for a phone that costs $199 and gets great battery life, you've come to the right place. Otherwise, I'd say look elsewhere. Like I said before, the Moto G series really isn't about providing more value than the next guy that's selling a phone at the same price anymore. It's about specific pain points, and if the pain point that the device solves isn't yours, Motorola probably has another one to fill that gap.

Just by retaining the long-lasting battery of the Moto G7 Power, the Moto G Power was already in the conversation for a must-have device for budget-conscious shoppers. But this phone isn't just counting on its longevity to win you over. It also performs well enough to meet the needs of the average smartphone user, and the cameras — while not the best you can find on a budget device — produced some pretty eye-catching shots during our testing for the Moto G Power review.

Moto G Stylus and Moto G Power review: Mega battery life for less than $300
Source: Android Authority English Archive.org version
Speaking personally, I think the Samsung and Nokia phones have a little bit more going for them, particularly when it comes to design. The TCL 10, less so. However, they don’t come close to meeting the Motorola Moto G series in one vital department: battery life. If battery life is your primary concern, you can’t go wrong with either the Moto G Power or the Moto G Stylus. The G Power, in particular, delivers dividends on battery life with three days of uptime. The G Stylus may only reach two days, but that’s still better than many devices in any price range.

74% Moto G Power review: Motorola delivers on its battery life promise and then some
Source: CNet English Archive.org version
The Moto G Power ($250 at Best Buy) is one of the newer members of the Motorola G budget phone family. It follows in the same steps as last year's Moto G7 Power with both a wallet-friendly price and a gigantic battery. At its core, the $250 Moto G Power is similar to the more expensive Moto G Stylus ($300 at Amazon). (It's sold as the Moto G8 Power in the UK for £220. It's not available in Australia.) Both came at a time when sheltering in place meant many of us depended on our phones to stay connected with friends, family or work. Many of us still are. At the same time, millions of people are in financial distress and can't afford a new phone or to replace a broken one, especially when new phones can cost upward of a thousand dollars.

The Moto G Power offers snappy performance and truly spectacular battery life in a handset you can use anywhere in the world. We'd like to see NFC for mobile payments and better camera quality, but you're getting a ton of value for your money here. Of course, you can find those features if you're willing to spend more, but for $249, the Moto G Power really delivers, and earns our Editors' Choice for being the best budget-friendly phone you can buy right now.

Moto G Stylus and G Power hands-on review: Bigger, better and still cheap
Source: Tom's Guide English Archive.org version
There doesn’t seem to be much not to like about the new Moto G line, and that’s always encouraging in the world of budget smartphones. Both the Moto G Stylus and Moto G Power appear to hit all the right notes: they’re more powerful than their predecessors, they’re equipped with massive batteries, and this time Motorola hasn’t raised their prices — which is a rare feat nowadays, as costs continue to rise across all phone categories.

Moto G Power and Moto G Stylus hands-on: Moto’s remarkable mid-rangers
Source: Android Authority English Archive.org version
These phones are not the most impressive I’ve ever seen, but they offer a good value. The price points are quite appealing considering what you get. What worries me most is the middling performance we saw from the Moto One devices last year. If these new devices are anything like those, Motorola may be in trouble. If the G Stylus and G Power represent a step up in performance, then Motorola’s outlook is brighter. Let’s hope for the latter.

Qualcomm Adreno 610: Integrated (in the Snapdragon 665) graphics card based on the Adreno 600 architecture. The performance of the GPU is between the Adreno 510 and 512/612 and therefore in the lower mid range. Supports DirectX11_1, Vulkan 1.0, OpenCL 2.0, OpenGL ES 3.2.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


SD 665: Fast mid-range ARM SoC with 8 CPU Kryo 260 cores (four fast 2 GHz Cortex-A73 cores in a cluster and two power saving 1.8 GHz Cortex-A53 cores) and a rather slow Adreno 610 GPU. Manufactured in a 11 nm LPP process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


6.40":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

Motorola: Founded in 1928, the US-based company mainly focuses on communication technology such as smartphones. The original company Motorola Inc was split up in 2011. Motorola Mobility got the smartphone division and was taken over by Google in 2012 and Lenovo in 2014.

The company is known for its cell phones and other electronic devices such as smartwatches, tablets and accessories. Motorola was one of the first companies to produce cell phones, and in recent years has also innovated in the areas of 5G technology and modular smartphones (Moto Mods). Motorola is also active in public safety and professional communications, providing solutions for government agencies, businesses and other organizations. The company has operations in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America and employs more than 10,000 people worldwide.
