    It's a nice phone with a lot of decent features. Good battery life. The stylus is handy for when you have greasy/dirty fingers and don't want to smear your screen, along with typing/editing. My fingers shake abit some times causing a lot of back tracking. The shake to activate flashlight gesture was my biggest draw to Motorola, as I use flashlight constantly. Screen is big, easy to see. It's almost too big ,I have but one pair of pants that will hold this in the thigh pocket. It's not lightning fast but as a midrange phone user for many years, it's nothing noticeable (performance wise). I had to compare it to my roommates 600$ pixel to see just a few millisecond deference (not worth extra cash). At time of purchase this was 250$ (1year old model-and it was a higher end phone from last year) with great features I feel this was a excellent purchase. The color is beautiful, I had to get a clear case to see it.

    I am very pleased with the phone. I am a hand writer and sketch person on anything mobile, both on Android & Windows OS. The sketching I do is primarily mark-up PDF drawings. This device replaces an 8" Galaxy Tab (LTE) with S-Pen, which just did not have enough RAM for work. My MotoG is primarily a work phone except for music and exercise. Keeping this in mind, it does everything I need except with half the screen area of my Tablet "Phone". The big pluses. 256 GB internal storage Multi-day battery life Adequate Stylus Peppiest processor of the mobile devices I own. (my test is how fast weather channel app loads) Stylus is easy to store since it is round. Android 11 Can't Intelligently comment on 5G, limited success tethering my Tablet Cameras, only used as point and shoot; Photos have not wowed me though. I am not sure as a work oriented phone it is worth a $100 more to get 5G & Android 11 over the MotoG Stylus. I usually have access to wi-fi and with so much storage and 128GB SD card I pretty much have everything already loaded. For me the $100 might get me past Android 12 and setting up a new device

    The Motorola 5g stylus, firstly I currently still use this mobile phone & own it .. The size battery lasting , processing speed sound ease of usage has been quiet great. My only issue which I have come to think is a Motorola thing is the sudden mute of notification , call & text messages I can't seem to understand what happens ..finally I don't understand why the Enterprise upgrade to " Android 13 " from 12 is made so difficult that you would have to get a rom & go flash the boot all that process & it's unique to this series of Motorola ...

    This phone has been awesome. It's very easy to use and has a good amount of storage. The camera could be a bit better. It isn't as clear as phones that I've had in the past and there are some features I wish it had like being able to say "smile" or another phrase to take a picture. Other than that I highly recommend this phone.

    For a cheap phone this phone is awesome. The only reason i got a new phone is because i broke the camera screen glass and one that happened it made the photos terrible and i have to have a good camera for work. But i loved this phone, big display screen, great battery life, good camera. For the price this is one of the better cheap phones i have ever had

    Memory and Battery are great! Stylus is lovely too. Wish the not level was higher as this phone can be a smidge difficult to see in bright sunlight outdoors. Also wish it had NFC for mobile pay, but that is noted in the specifications prior to purchase. The 5000 mah battery lasts a good two days if you don't really use your phone and lasts a good 12 hours with heavy use. Not a bad phone for the price.

    This phone was bought as a replacement for a $1200 Samsung Flagship phone that got destroyed out of warranty. Overall, it is a great phone. The difference a person will pay between an entry-level phone and a flagship phone in my opinion is not justified by the performance in most cases. I bought this phone on sale and overall it performed well. Screen is large and appeared bright. The battery is huge @ 5,000 mah. Stylus worked well as compared to Samsung S-Pen that I have used for years. I do like the pure Android OS as opposed to all of the bloatware that Samsung adds to the Android ecosystem. Some of the Samsung stuff is handy, just not all. The only major issue with this phone is the external camera. It really doesn't take good pictures. If you are willing to deal with sub-par camera performance, everything else on this phone works just fine.

    Nice screen size and resolution, plenty of memory and it's nice I can plug in my micro SD card for backing up contents. Battery life is not great but it recharges fairly quickly with supplied charger/cable. I didn't need the 'Stylus' feature and I rarely used it, but it functions well. Using this phone on Tracfone service with no problems.

    Wanted cell phone with built in stylus. Going from Samsung Note 4. Had to as as of May many apps no longer supported Android 6.0, especially financial apps ( including my bank). The only other phones with built in stylus were Samsung notes at over 2xs price. Most online reviews agreed they were overpriced. Had Sprint network, which is now TMobile. Since T-Mobile supports this phone, thought Sprint does too. Dumb conclusion. Best Buy rep worked with me ( had similar problems getting other phones accepted by Sprint). They couldn't get it done. Meanwhile I began working with a very capable Sprit rep tring to get this Motorola model accepted by Sprint system. In meantime, Best Buy manager said would extent return time while this was going on, in hopes I would not have to return. One month long experience reinforced that there a lot of reps, at Best Buy and the phone carriers who go the extra mile. To bad the Sprint /T -Mobile reps have to work with such poor software and short sighted management policies. Anyway, transfered all my lines from Sprint to T- Mobile (almost went to entirely diff carrier). I like the phone so far. Still getting used to difference between Samsung and new motorola. No major problems. Especially like the icon and shortcuts that show up when stylus is removed from phone. The special gestures to torn on flashlight and camera even when phone off are neat little pluses. Especially love the great battery life of the phone. The reviewers complaints about that this isn't a quick charge phone is, as several reviewers noted, offset by hugh battery life. And charge time isn't so bad, but then I'm coming from an older phone where 45 minutes to an hour was norm for a full charge. Only been using this phone for a week, and not coming from a newer phone ( my old phone was OK as I didn't stream movies and not a u tube fan or other than poker and chess not a big game fan, at lest not on a phone . ) so take that in consideration of this review. Although not a hugh photo bug, have been finding several neat things with this camera and video that are easy to implement, and looking forward to trying. Considering it took me over a month, from when purchased ( after reading up on pro/ cons on review sites, both buyers and pros) and finally able to get carrier to activate it, I have a little positive bias now toward this phone

    Awesome specs and value for the price. This is my 4th motorola phone and I get 2-3 years out of each...the last one had no issue but I decided to go for the previous model year with 5g, instead If 2022model with o 5g, which goes for around same price. speed tests give me around 150/60 at home..not bad I believe..very sufficient for my needs. Battery life is 2 days, including substantial video streaming

    What's not to love about a phone that uses a stylus and has a slot for it. Great battery life, great display, decent sound, has a FM radio so you can save on data, and hotspot function which I use a lot. 256gb drive means not worrying about using a memory card or moving files especially pics.

    Because I don't replace my phones every year, I was really surprised and impressed with this Moto G, and all its bells and whistles. This phone smokes, and was really inexpensive compared to what you see being advertised as "the must have" models.

    A Price Conscious Phone with Pizzazz.

    Most Moto G phones are price conscious phones that still deliver a great set of features. The Moto G Stylus has a large, crisp screen, a great camera, and an overall solid feel. The colored (Emerald for mine) case has a cool black, yet colored look giving the phone some pizzazz. And of course, the unique feature of this phone is the Stylus that pops in and out of the bottom of the phone. The stylus allows for scribbling notes and drawing pictures. It is also great to use as a 'mouse' pointer/clicker on the phone when you want a little more control than the fat finger can give.

    It plays Mario Kart Tour perfectly smoothly, and most experiences on Roblox are lag-free! The battery lasts all day with heavy usage and needs to be charged every night. The screen is big and the back of the phone looks beautiful in person. This is an amazing deal, for $200.
