Motorola Moto G Pro Review

36

Whether you’re an experienced mobile phone user or just starting out, there are plenty of things to consider before you buy a smartphone. Among those things, one of the most important is the price. This is because there are a lot of cheap smartphones available these days, so you’ll want to make sure that you’re not getting ripped off.

Curved screen

Despite the lack of an edge-to-edge display, Motorola’s Moto G Pro is still an impressive device. It has a 6.4-inch screen, a slick design, and a capacitive stylus. Using the stylus is an excellent way to take notes and take advantage of the device’s dual-rear camera.

The Moto G Pro is also one of the first smartphones to boast 5G connectivity. It runs the Android One OS, which is a close ape to Google’s Pixel line. Motorola also guarantees three years of security updates.

The Moto G Pro also has a punch-hole front-facing camera, a pair of stereo speakers, and an integrated stylus. However, the real draw of the device is its surprisingly good battery life. The battery lasts for more than a full day, and Motorola has even gone as far as to include a flashlight as part of the package.

The curved screen on the Moto G Pro is not as impressive as the one on Google’s Pixel 4a 5G, but it is still a cool feat. Despite the curved screen, the Moto G Pro does not sport an OLED display.

Snapdragon 665 chipset

Powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 665, Moto G Pro features a 6.4-inch IPS HD+ Display. It runs Android OS v10.0 out of the box, and it comes with 4GB of RAM. There’s also a microSD card slot for expanding the internal storage.

The Moto G Pro also comes with three rear cameras. The primary camera is a 48-megapixel sensor with f/1.8 aperture, while the secondary and tertiary cameras are a 16-megapixel Ultrawide sensor and a 2-megapixel macro sensor. The front camera is also 16-megapixel with f/2.0 aperture. The Moto G Pro can record video in Full HD, 4K Ultra HD, and FHD at 60 fps. It can also record slow-motion video modes at 120 fps.

The Moto G Pro’s camera interface is easy to use, and it provides convenient features like 8x zoom and time-lapse. The camera interface includes standard Moto features like a portrait and depth-sensing dual camera.

The Moto G Pro’s display is IPS, which provides great color accuracy and a wide viewing angle. The battery life should also be satisfactory.

4000mAh battery

Having a 4000mAh battery is no slouch. The Motorola Moto G Pro packs a lot of juice into its small frame. Its battery lasts for a whole day on a single charge. The device also comes with a fast charging system.

The Moto G Pro comes with a 6.4-inch IPS LCD screen with 2300 x 1080 pixels. It has an impressive 16-megapixel front camera. The Moto G Pro also sports an LED flash.

Motorola has equipped the Moto G Pro with Android One, a software platform that guarantees the device will be updated to the latest version of Android. This translates to a streamlined, clean Android experience.

The Moto G Pro has a lot of features, including a fingerprint scanner and a dedicated video camera. It also has a dockable S-Pen-style stylus that sits next to the USB-C charge port. The Moto G Pro is also waterproof.

The Moto G Pro also has a dual-sim setup. The phone also comes with 128GB of internal storage, but you can expand your memory with microSDXC cards.

Stylus

Despite its lack of NFC and pressure-sensitive stylus, the Moto G Pro is a solid choice for those who want to be able to write notes with their phone. However, you will need to unlock your phone to do so.

The Moto G Stylus’s camera produces natural background blur, but it lacks a night mode. It also has a macro lens that allows you to take interesting perspectives. The only drawback is that the photo quality is rather underwhelming.

The G Stylus also includes a note-taking app, which allows you to mark screen content with a stylus. You can also create cinemagraphs. Cinemagraphs are still images with a moving element, but they don’t offer the same resolution as video.

The G Stylus also has a coloring book app, which turns your sketches into digital crayons. Unfortunately, the app doesn’t offer an animated GIF creator. It also doesn’t record your sketches. This means that you’ll need to take a photo if you want to turn your sketches into a GIF.
