The Moto G23 gives you high quality on the essentials, with a few exceptions. An overambitious camera and vibration motor that is so annoying I switched it off are two examples. But the important stuff, such as functional performance, battery life, charging, connectivity, screen and sound, you get here at a good price.

Motorola Moto G13 vs G23 | Unboxing & Comparison
Source: Tech Spurt
Motorola's Moto G23 and G13 are two budget smartphones costing under £200 in the UK, with very similar specs including the same 50MP camera sensor and Helio G85 chipset. This unboxing and hands-on review compares the Motorola G23 vs G13 to see which is the best value phone for you in 2023. Photo quality, gaming performance, battery life and more is covered off. Of course, you have other options for under £200 like the Moto G53 if you want 5G support, or G32 if the screen is more important. You've got a lot of choice here, because Motorola launches so many bloody mobiles! Still, the Moto G13 is a decent choice if you only have £150 to spend. For that budget, you get the same decent everyday performance as the Moto G23, despite having half the memory. You can even get gaming on Call of Duty and other less demanding titles, albeit on lower graphics settings. The Motorola Moto G23 and G13 offer the same 50 meg camera, while the G23 also serves up a basic ultra-wide shooter. Photo and video quality is fine as long as your subject is perfectly still. Battery life is excellent on both, you get the same slick stock Android 13 experience (although no Moto app!) and the design is near identical. So which are you more tempted by? Stay tuned for my review round-up of the best budget phones of 2023!

76% Motorola Moto G23 Review: Too many simplifications
Source: Root Nation
Motorola's new G-series budget phone attracts with its design and long battery life, but otherwise it's a very cheap device. Weak screen, stripped-down software, low quality shooting in low light. At the moment, competitors' offers are more interesting, and Moto G23 can only be helped by a price reduction.

Motorola Moto G23 Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News
If you like performance-driven phones, then the Motorola Moto G23 will not fall into a similar category since the device got an average hardware setup, usually found even in the last three generations of entry-level phones. So there’s no major progression in terms of the hardware configuration. But still, we know that Motorola phones provide clean UI, and many people prefer a bloatware-free interface. As for the other factors, the display is what you expect from a budget phone, the battery life is obviously not an issue since you are getting long-lasting screen time, and the latest Android 13 ecosystem comes as a cherry on top. However, the average camera quality, mediocre gaming, and performance are the core downside. Therefore, if you are looking for a better alternative, you should consider the Realme 10 since it brings a complete package of features. We recommend Moto G23 if you are getting a major discount offer only.

Comment

ARM Mali-G52 MP2: Integrated mid range graphics card with 2 clusters. ARM states that the G52 series is 30% faster and 15% more efficient compared to the G51 series on the same process node.

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

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

Helio G85: ARM based octa-core SoC with 2x big ARM Cortex-A75 cores at up to 2 GHz and 6x small and power efficient ARM Cortex-A55 cores at up to 1.8 GHz. Integrates a Cat-7 (DL) / Cat-13 (UL) LTE Modem (4G), ARM Mali-G72 MP3 GPU and a ARM Mali G52 MC2 with up to 950 MHz.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

6.50":

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. 

73.5%: 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.
