    I had a Samsung phone previously and I was happy with it until it broke and I needed a new device. After looking at many different phones with prices near or over $1000, I decided to go with the Motorola G Stylus 5G, as it was within my budget and seemed to be a great device. I am happy with my purchase, the pen is a great addition as I can draw and kill time when I need to. There are some things I miss from the higher end phones, like wireless charging and the sensor to measure your heart beat . But overall I am very pleased with my choice. The phone works great and I can add extra storage if needed.

    Bought for 72 year old. He likes how he can use the stylus when his fingers won't swipe. He has old maintenance hands that tend to dry out and the old phones sometimes didn't recognize his touch. We haven't had it long to say a lot about how durable it is. But it meets his needs on calling, texting, you-tube watching, picture taking, and game playing. Very easy to transfer information from one Motorola device to the other, using the new device set up and having the phones close together.

    It offers a reasonable price for a smartphone with a stylus,the plastic frame make it light and comfortable to hold and is durable and water resistant. I also love the matte finish .so less smudging. The fingerprint feature works every time. The stylus is metal and that's something I like. even better have'nt had any lag issues and is very fluid making hand writen notes and skeches a breeze. The 10W charging adapter takes longer to charge the phone I just swapped it out for a 20 W adapter. All in All I am satisfied and for the price you can't beat the Moto G Stylus 5G.

    I am enjoying the phone. Still don't know how everything works yet though. I haven't had any problems with it so far. The color and size is great. The stylus on the side of the phone is a plus. No complaints as far as the price goes. A great value. My only, kina complaint is the picture quality. It's not as clear as what I'm used to and it seems that the background is somewhat "dark." Hopefully, it's not gonna stay this way and maybe it's something that I need to adjust. Anyway, I am pleased with this phone. My second Motorola purchase in almost 5 years. Battery lasts almost 3 days. This phone can do about everything that any other expensive phone can do.

    the phone is a great phone it's fast has plenty of storage and very easy to use. I got it for my mother that's 69 years old and she's able to use it and navigate. the only downfall I have for it was it took me an hour at the store because they had to find it and when they found it the price was not what it was marked at.

    Thank goodness for this smartphone and android 13. I’m so glad I purchased this smartphone. I bought a Moto G stylus 5g 2022 and I thought it was a near perfect smartphone. It could’ve been had it not for Android 12. With Android 12, I didn’t like the way you had to turn on Wi-Fi with the extra button. Because of this, I usually forget to turning it off. This would result in draining the battery a lot faster. So after the Moto G stylus 5g 2023 was available I bought it the first chance I got. Not only that it has an improved OS (Android 13), I just love that it has a better processor. Camera is decent enough too. Whatever you do Motorola please don’t ever get rid of offline FM radio and the headphone jack.

    This is an unbelievable deal - I might buy a backup! It retains some old-school features I find indispensable, such as SD card augmentation and a real earphone jack. Try to find those features anywhere else and you'll be right back here to buy this phone. (I've never had a stylus before but believe I will learn to like it) Battery is great so far. Only "missing" feature is wireless charging so that might be a deal-breaker for you.

    Excellent phone. My family & I have had several different Motorola models over the last 10 years & this one is by far my favorite. The camera set up on this model is my favorite of all the ones I've used over the years. The battery life is incredible & charging time is greatly reduced from other models I've had.

    This is my third Motorola phone, my second G stylus. It's pretty much an upgrade of my previous phone, a G stylus 2021, with more storage, and other upgrades, such as more RAM and a newer version of Android. The increased storage was my primary motive for getting it, as I like my old one. One of the things I like about Motorola phones is that they have less bloatware than most of their competitors.

    Don't know what I was thinking when I got a Power with 32g storage a couple of years ago thinking my sd could handle the overage. Upgraded to this & Im good for another couple of years. It has the most important features I was looking for, and with 5g. Audio not so great, but nothing is perfect.

    Solid performance, good battery life, handles multiple open apps at once. I am a heavy phone/text/email user during the day for work need a phone that works flawlessly on those three platforms- - - this phone delivers on those! I am not a gamer and do not live to watch videos on my phone all day/night so I can't speak to the performance of that. Camera is descent, yes could be better, but for the price, it's adequate.

    The Motorola 5G Stylus boasts several impressive features, especially for those who appreciate the added functionality of a stylus. Its 5G capability ensures fast internet connectivity, and the stylus adds a level of precision that enhances the overall user experience. However, a notable drawback is the inflexibility in customizing the layout of app files alphabetically once they are created. This limitation significantly impacts the ease of locating specific apps, especially when you have a large number of them installed. The inability to rearrange apps alphabetically means you have to rely on memory or spend extra time searching, which can be quite frustrating. This lack of organizational flexibility is a surprising oversight for a device that otherwise performs so well. While the Motorola 5G Stylus shines in areas like connectivity and stylus integration, its rigid app organization system could be a major inconvenience for users who prefer a more structured and intuitive layout for their applications.
