Reviews for the Motorola Moto G96 5G
Motorola G96 review: Lightweight build, clean software, but can it stand out?
Source: The Indian Express
The Motorola G96 does not sport a unique design nor is it the fastest phone in its segment, but it does have a lightweight, rugged body that looks and feels premium. This, combined with the clean software experience and great primary camera, makes it one of the most well-balanced phones you can buy under Rs 20,000. But if you are someone who wants raw power or a big battery, there are better alternatives out there, like the Infinix GT 30, Realme P3, and the Poco X7.

Moto G96 5G review: Imperfect but impressive for the price
Source: Think Digit
The Moto G96 5G is a reliable budget smartphone that nails the essentials. With its vibrant 144Hz display, minimal design and smooth performance, it offers great value under Rs 20,000. However, the cameras could have been better. Buying a smartphone under Rs 20,000 these days can feel like both a blessing and a challenge. On one hand, there’s no shortage of feature-rich options offering great value. On the other hand, picking the right one from a sea of near-identical specs and marketing buzzwords is tougher than it looks. Brands are constantly trying to push the limits by offering high-resolution displays, larger batteries and good cameras, all while keeping the price accessible.
