Best phone in this price range imo. I like this years version MUCH better than the 2024 edition. Last year the Snapdragon 4 gen 1 was abysmal at times. Very laggy. Apps took forever to open and the screen was dim. The camera was pretty awful too. This year we have approximately 1000 nits of brightness and the camera is solid. Battery life is much better too. The fingerprint sensor is quicker as is the face unlock feature. However, my favorite change is that Motorola thankfully switched to a Mediatek chip. The Dimensity 6300 is very capable to do just about everything that someone buying a non flagship phone would expect to do. My only critique of this phone is the horrific color of the very nice vegan leather back. Gray/Black? Ugh!! Where is the lilac, sky blue, Spritz Orange, magenta, scarlet? Heck, I would settle for boring beige! Other than that, kudos to Motorola for a job well done at this price range!

I’ve been using the Moto G 2025 for a few weeks, and it’s a solid mid-range phone with excellent value for the price. The 128GB storage is more than enough for apps, photos, and videos, and the performance is smooth for everyday use like browsing, streaming, and light gaming. The battery life is impressive—I can easily get through a full day with moderate to heavy usage.
The display is bright and clear, though not as sharp as flagship phones. The camera works well in good lighting, but low-light photos could be better. I also appreciate that it’s unlocked, making it flexible with different carriers.
Overall, this phone is a reliable choice for someone who wants good performance, long battery life, and plenty of storage without spending a fortune.

Perfectly fine budget phone

This is my first Motorola phone and it's not bad considering the low price. I was starting to grow tired of Pixels and Samsungs (their most budget models, that is) as those can get boring after a while so I wanted to try something different.
Pros:
- Nice design makes it look and feel premium
- Leathery back provides grip. This is the first time I didn't need to buy a case. Please don't ever change this, Motorola!
- UI looks clean and simple similar to Pixels
- Software has lots of fun features and gestures. Double tap to turn on/off the screen and split app view are among my favorites.
- Overall speed and performance is decent as long as you have strong Wifi
Cons:
- Stuttery performance on mobile network. 5G feels almost as slow as my old phone's 4G.
- RAM boost feels like a gimmick. I didn't notice much difference. Who knows if it really does anything. Review critics have said they felt an improvement so I'll just take their word for it.
- Poor screen quality with lots of reflections, poor viewing angles, and landscape mode is completely unviewable with sunglasses. All common traits of a cheap LCD screen.
- Frequently struggling to get the brightness exactly how I want it. I don't have Adaptive Brightness turned on or anything. The problem is the slider needs to have smaller incremental changes. The jump in brightness is too big. Not sure if this is due to Android 15 or Motorola software. Never had this issue with any of my previous phones so this is very unusual and strange to me.
- 0% brightness is still too bright in a dark room
- Night mode doesn't get amber enough even with max intensity
- Some bloatware but not as bad as Samsung. They're not bothersome except for the ad-filled 1Weather app. Disable it first before setting the weather. This way it'll use Motorola's stock weather app instead.
- Don't really like any of the fonts. Even the 'Android' font doesn't look quite right as sometimes it can look as if Bold Text was on. The thick bold font of the time, date, and weather on the home screen can't be changed to look smaller.
- '50 MP Quad Pixel' imprint on the back looks kinda tacky
- They really need to change the default Moto ringtone to something else
Despite all the cons, there's still plenty of good things going for it. The cheap screen and slower performance is to be expected on a budget phone and I'm perfectly okay with that. It's still a fun phone to use and I'm enjoying it. Sometimes using a product that doesn't break the bank can feel more humbling and it makes you appreciate it more. Would buy Motorola again in the future.

I picked up the Motorola Moto G 2025 from Best Buy and it’s been awesome. Super easy to set up, runs smooth, and the battery life is great — easily gets me through the day. The screen looks really nice and the camera does a solid job too. For the price, it’s definitely a great deal. Happy with the purchase!

The 2025 Motorola Moto G 5G is a solid budget smartphone that offers great value for its price. It has a large display, smooth performance for everyday tasks, and strong battery life that easily lasts through the day. The camera is decent for casual photos, and it supports 5G connectivity, which is a nice bonus at this price point. While it doesn’t have premium features or the sharpest screen, it gets the basics right, making it a reliable choice for users who just need a simple, affordable phone that works well.

BEST $200 PHONE FOR 2025

Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The 2025 Moto G offers most of the benefits of a $400 phone for half the price. It is the ONLY phone in its price range with the newest Android 15 software in February 2025. Motorola has committed to updating the software until 2028. The screen is sharp with an accurate color balance. The Moto has dual stereo speakers at the top and bottom with Dolbt Atmos to obtain amazing sound quality. My JBL bluetooth speaker has deeper, tighter bass with the Moto than with other phones. The Moto G has enough RAM for Netflix, Spotify and web surfing. It is NOT a game machine...it will struggke with games that demand twice as much RAM. It took a day to download and install my favorite apps, download endless software updates and then remove some silly games that were pre-installed. After the updates were completed, apps opened quickly and ran smoothly. Running two or rhree apps is fine but it runs better if you close the apps you are no longer using. For anyone coming from a different $200 phone, the Moto is an upgrade. Someone coming from a $400 phone might be surprised at how small the differences are.
