Reviews for the Motorola Moto G10
Motorola has equipped the 10th generation of its affordable mid-range phone with even more cameras and a fresh look. However, if you take a closer look, the differences to the previous generation are not that big. In our review, we'll evaluate whether the update is worth it.

If you're on a tight budget, the Motorola Moto G10 is very cheap. It's a basic option but considering just how inexpensive it is, you wouldn't expect it to be a super sophisticated phone. Despite being clunky and a bit slow, it has a big screen, a long-lasting battery and a capable camera.

The Moto G10 would have been a great all-rounder some time ago. But even the low-end smartphone market has evolved, and now the hardware at hand doesn't impress. In fact, it seems to be lacking against some of the competition. And we are not talking about the pressure from the Chinese brands only. Sure, the Redmi 9T and the OnePlus Nord N100 are viable options to pursue, but we are mostly puzzled by the decision to space the Moto G30 and the G10 pricing by just €30.

The Moto G10 is a decent buy for those who want a cheap phone that lasts a long time between charges. Others might be better off spending a little more on alternatives from Realme or Xiaomi. This phone feels a little slow and its main camera often produces drab, oversharpened images.

The G10 is basically a slower, cheaper G9 Play with a slightly better camera. Consider what's most important before laying cash down on this, similarly-specced rivals like the Redmi 9, or pricier alternatives that afford a few extra luxuries, like the Realme 7.

Motorola’s Moto G series have always been about giving the users bang for the buck. Yes, they have midrange specs, but software optimizations and the right features in the right places make them great bargain phones.

This might be the first entry-level Moto G we don't unequivocally recommend as the default purchase. There's nothing especially wrong with it - indeed the battery life, software and practical design make it more than good enough for most people - but there's also the Moto G30 to consider. So if you can, we'd recommend stumping up the little extra money and going with that model instead.

The Moto G10 certainly has a lot going for it. It looks good, packs a decent screen and camera for its low cost of entry, and has a formidable battery life. At £130, it’s well-priced, but it feels sluggish out of the box and that problem is only going to get worse over time. If you can afford the extra £30 SIM-free – an increase that will be barely noticeable if you take it out on contract – then the Moto G30 certainly justifies the extra cost. But at the same time, that’s a 23% increase over the SIM-free RRP, and if you’re on a tight budget then that might not be doable.

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.

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.

The company has operations in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America and employs more than 10,000 people worldwide.
70.65%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
