Motorola has introduced the Moto G55 5G, a cheaper alternative to the existing Moto G85 5G. Available now in some markets, Motorola equips the Moto G55 5G with a powerful MediaTek Dimensity chipset and a 50 MP and optically stabilised camera, among other features.

Motorola has presented the Moto G55 5G, which has arrived alongside the Moto G35 5G in multiple markets. As its name suggests, the Moto G55 5G replaces the Moto G54 5G (curr. $158.46 on Amazon), which arrived just under a year ago. While Motorola has priced the Moto G55 5G at €50 more than the Moto G35 5G, the former arguably contains a much more impressive feature set; please see our corresponding Moto G35 5G launch article for more details about Motorola's other new Moto G series smartphone.

Specifically, Motorola installs a Dimensity 7025 chipset, which MediaTek bases on a 6 nm manufacturing process, as well as ARM Cortex-A78 and Cortex-A55 CPU cores. Moreover, the Moto G55 5G finds itself with a 5,000 mAh battery that supports 30 W wired charging. Although wireless charging support escapes the device, its peak charging wattage is double that of its predecessor.

Furthermore, the Moto G55 5G features a 6.49-inch display, which contributes towards the device's 161.56 x 73.82 x 8.09~8.19 mm dimensions. For reference, the IPS display outputs at 1080p with a 120 Hz refresh rate and a 20:9 aspect ratio. On top of that, Motorola has included 50 MP primary (OIS), 16 MP front-facing and 8 MP ultra-wide-angle cameras. Currently, the Moto g55 5G is only available in the Eurozone, where it sells for €249 with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage. Like the Moto G35 5G, the Moto G55 5G should soon reach 'select markets in Latin America and Asia-Pacific', along with the UK. Motorola has not yet confirmed pricing or availability for these markets, though.
