Reviews for the Motorola Moto G9 Power

77.4% Motorola Moto G9 Power smartphone review: Motorola phone with enduring battery | Notebookcheck
Even more battery for less money; that is the concept of Motorola's Moto G9 Power. Compared with the predecessor, it has been improved in some areas, but corners have been cut in others too. We'll see if it's enough for it to be a convincing mid-range phone this year as well.
80% Moto G9 Power review: a phone with giant battery power for a small price
Source: T3 English
The Moto G9 Power is going to appeal if you want a budget phone with a big screen and a battery that lasts and lasts. Apart from the price and the battery, there's not a whole lot that excels about this handset, but it's still one of the best phones on the market for this low a price.

70% Motorola Moto G9 Power Battery review: Autonomy strength
Source: DxOMark English
The Motorola Moto G9 Power comes with a big 6000 mAh battery that gets the job done quite well when it comes to autonomy, showing particularly good strength in our on-the-go tests and in making phone calls. The sticking point is its charger: while nominally 20W, which should be enough to power up the battery quicker, its actual measured flow-through measured between 15W and 17.5W in our tests. Were it not for its sub-par charging and efficiency scores, the Moto G9 Power would be higher in the rankings than it is.

80% Motorola Moto G9 Power review: Big battery, small price
Source: Expert Reviews English
That's a shame because the Moto G9 Power hits the nail squarely on the head in other areas. It’s well-priced, has solid performance and a battery that just won’t quit. There are just a few things that hold it back from greatness. If you’re willing to compromise on video capture and display quality, though, you’ll likely find a competent and reliable budget smartphone in the Moto G9 Power. With one of the longest-lasting batteries we’ve ever tested, the Moto G9 Power is well worth the price of admission – just don’t expect it to necessarily impress elsewhere.

But you can have a phenomenal battery life, smooth UI, great photo quality for the primary camera, and enough punch to play a game or two. And you get everything wrapped in a nice looking plastic body with basic water protection. These seem like enough to warrant our Moto G9 Power recommendation if it fits your budget and your priorities.

90% Moto G Power review

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.

Motorola has shown remarkable focus in creating a phone with the potential to go on for days on a single charge. The sacrifices made to achieve this goal in terms of form factor and display quality, however, should probably prompt most people to look elsewhere.

80% Moto G9 Power review: Value for money
Source: India Today English
If you are looking for a phone that has a big screen, a huge battery, a decent processor, and an impressive camera, your search ends right here. I don’t know of a phone that performs as well as the Moto G9 Power at a price point of Rs 11,499. Despite being a budget smartphone, the company has not cut corners. It in fact offers more than the price it charges from the buyers. Plus, the phone looks and feels premium so would not even feel that you are using a sub-12,000 phone. So go for it without any doubt if budget is a constraint, you will be pleasantly surprised.

The 'Moto' tells you you're getting a no-nonsense, dependable budget phone from Motorola, the 'Power' tells you this has one of the biggest batteries on the market – and that just about sums up what you can expect when it comes to the Moto G9 Power.

Moto G9 Power review: Big battery on a budget
Source: Pocket Lint English
A gear change for the series: battery life has increased and the price lowered compared to its predecessor. As a result, however, the screen is a noticeably low resolution, while the processing and graphical power is limited - but not to the point it's problematic. So if you're looking for a long-lasting handset to buy outright on a SIM-only contract then you'll struggle to find much else that can compete.

The new Moto G9 Power could be the perfect smartphones that comes packed with a massive battery and a 64MP camera, plus it is Qualcomm Snapdragon powered but wait, it is priced at just Rs. 11,999.

Comment

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 662: 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.


6.80":

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.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


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. 


73.02%: 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.
