Motorola has just announced two new affordable smartphones that come with impressive features. The Moto G 5G (2024) will hit the market later this month and will be available through wireless carriers. If you prefer an unlocked version, you can expect to pay around $200 when it becomes available in May. On the other hand, the Moto G Power 5G (2024) offers even more enhancements, such as a superior screen, a faster processor, and quicker charging. This model will cost $300 when the unlocked versions go on sale on March 29th. You can also find it at select wireless carriers in the US starting a week earlier.
Both phones come with Android 14, NFC support, and boast 120 Hz displays, 5,000 mAh batteries, 128GB of storage, microSD card readers, 3.5mm headphone jacks, and speakers with Dolby Atmos audio. However, the Moto G Power has a few additional features that make its higher price tag worth considering.
