Motorola has announced the latest refresh of its Moto G series of smartphones. Alongside the new Moto G Stylus, the company also announced the 2023 edition of the Moto G 5G. So let's learn more about Moto G 5G 2023, including its specifications, availability, and expected price in Nepal.

Moto G 5G (2023) Overview:

Design and Build

Being a budget smartphone, the Moto G 5G (2023) has an all-plastic build. And it measures 8.4mm thick and weighs 189 grams.Like Motorola's most other budget and midrange devices, this one also features a water-repellent build quality. Whereas the screen here is a 6.5" HD+ LCD unit with a 120Hz refresh rate.

Performance and Memory

Powering the Moto G 5G (2023) is Qualcomm's Snapdragon 480+ chip. Built on an 8nm process, it is pretty energy-efficient but not that powerful. For instance, MediaTek Helio G99, which is on the much more affordable phones like the Realme 10 (review), comfortably outperforms the 480+ in almost all categories except the 5G part.Anyway, Motorola has paired this with 4GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. And it brings an SD card slot for storage expansion too. In terms of software, the phone runs on (nearly stock) Android 13 out-of-the-box, with a few Motorola apps sprinkled on top.
