Not anything special. Basic android. No new or stand out features. Camera is less then great. The only thing I enjoy is the finger sensor on the power button.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I bought the Motorola G 5G 2024 as a last-minute solution, and it turned out to be exactly what I needed. The price is very affordable, yet it offers a wide variety of apps, a good-quality camera, and all the latest features and sensors — including screen mirroring, NFC, and 5G connectivity. I've been using it for almost a year now, and it has consistently performed at 100%. It's durable, impact-resistant, huge memory capacity and the battery easily lasts all day with regular use. Overall, it’s a solid, dependable smartphone that delivers far more than you'd expect for the price. Highly recommended!

The Best of Budget 5G: Design Meets Stamina
The Motorola Moto G 5G (2024) is designed for the user who wants reliable, long-lasting performance and modern features like 5G without spending a premium price. Its standout feature is arguably the excellent battery life, combined with a surprisingly premium aesthetic for this price category. The Sage Green color, paired with a tactile vegan leather back panel, gives the phone a distinctive and comfortable feel that instantly elevates it above the typical glossy plastic found on competitors.

I put off writing a review until I had time to use this phone for a while. It's been about a month and I have to say this phone is overall a great purchase. It works as needed, easy to use and figure out, the price was very reasonable, and the phone is fairly sturdy as I've accidentally dropped it a few times and it hasn't cracked or dented.

After five months of ownership, the Moto G 5G (2024) 128 GB remains a functional budget handset with exceptional battery life and solid build value. But it doesn’t get smoother over time—performance limitations, aging battery behavior, and display/camera compromises become more apparent during long-term use.
Ideal for: Users needing a simple, low-cost 5G phone with long battery life and minimal expectations for high performance or camera quality.
Not ideal for: Users who demand smooth app switching, vivid display, rich multimedia, or extended longevity.

Overall I like this Motorola phone. Great camera. Better than some of the iPhone pics I've seen. I added an sd additional memory card. Took a little work to close the seal but it can be done. The only slight issue is occasionally there is a slow delay when switching from one app to another. Good sound quality on calls. Good battery life and quick charging. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new phone and doesn't want to spend big bucks.

The vegan leather back is beautiful and soft. I will definitely be buying another Motorola when I need a new phone. Best buy makes it easy

I purchased this phone to replace an older iPhone and I was pleasantly surprised with its performsnce. It has a large screen that is perfect for streaming movies and playing games and sounds great with its Dolby Audio. It has fantastic battery life and charges pretty quickly but you’ll need a fast charger. The camera could be a little bit better but you can always download a Gcam apk for better photos. Good buy for sure!

Camera improvements are incremental but still excellent, especially in low light. The Action Button replaces the mute switch and adds some customization. Battery life is solid, lasting a full day under heavy use. USB-C finally arrives, offering faster data transfer and more universal charging.

Got this as a replacement for my 12 year-old's contract phone with Verizon. I was tired of paying $150 through Asurion for a referbed phone when it hardly cost that much to begin with. So far, it's been great. Excellent battery life and good quality camera. My kid is a big fan of the programmable gestures, e.g. shake to turn on the flashlight, rotate it to open the camera app.

Solid phone. The texture on the back of the phone is nice. Shame most cases cover it up. NFC enabled and 5g. You can't get a better phone for the price. Color is supposed to be Sage but looks more Charcoal unless you hold it up to the light you'll see a 'hint' of green.

I’ve been using the Moto G 5G (2024) for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed by how much value Motorola packed into this affordable device. At under $200, it punches well above its weight class.
The Sage Green finish is a standout—elegant, fresh, and far more premium-looking than you'd expect at this price. The vegan leather texture adds a nice grip and a touch of sophistication. It feels solid in hand without being bulky.
