Moto G 5G Plus review

The Moto G 5G Plus undercuts all 5G phones before it in terms of price, and it's one of Motorola's best G-series devices too.

Affordable 5G Feels relatively snappy to use Long-lasting battery

Fingerprint sensor doesn’t always work Cameras aren’t the best Irritating Google Assistant button

The Moto G 5G Plus is a good all-rounder with a better chipset, battery life and screen quality than many other devices at its price point. It’s also got a bigger screen than its siblings. The fact that it’s also 5G-compatible makes it an even more...

Moto G 5G Plus review: Super performance, super price

Looking for an affordable 5G phone? This Moto handset has everything you could ask for - but its the overall features, not just 5G, that help sell it.

Great battery life ; Big screen experience ; As much power as you'll need ; Speedy connectivity ; Super smooth software ; Affordable price point

Half the cameras are a waste of space ; The SIM tray design is poor ; Plasticky feel ; No in-display fingerprint scanner ; Do you really need 5G?

This isn't just a good phone because it offers 5G future-proofing. It's simply just a good phone for all it offers: a big screen, smooth software experience, and a sensible price. It looks a little plasticky and the cameras are an oversell, but...

Moto G 5G Plus Review

Motorola has long been the king of the budget phone with its excellent ‘G' range. Does the latest iteration, the Moto G 5G Plus, continue the run? The simple answer is a resounding yes. For the price, this is a hard phone to pass up, especially if...

– The value proposition is unmatched, ideal screen for movies, multi-day battery life

– It’s not the best looking phone, we have to say

It’s not the prettiest, but the Moto G 5G is a fantastic 5G Android phone for under £300 with fast performance, long battery life and a good main rear 48-megapixel camera.

Moto G 5G Plus

With impressive performance, a bright 21:9 display, great cameras and a 5,000mAh battery, there's not a lot to dislike about the Moto G 5G Plus.

Moto G 5G Plus review: Finally, an affordable 5G smartphone

G's Louise – Moto's first affordable 5G phone only costs £300 but where are the cutbacks?

The cheapest 5G smartphone ; Great performance for the price ; Large, colour-accurate 90Hz screen

Cheap build ; No IP rating

The Moto G 5G Plus is a splendid addition to the Moto G lineup, and a major cornerstone when it comes to 5G accessibility in the UK. If you’re one of the lucky few to live in an area with reliable 5G coverage and you’d like to benefit from these faster...

Moto G 5G Plus review

Want to upgrade to 5G without the price tag? The Moto G 5G Plus might be the phone for you.

Low price ; Has 5G ; Good gaming power for the price ; Long battery life

It’s an all-plastic phone ; You get better cameras in some rivals

You have a lot of great options if you have £200-300 to spend. The Moto G 5G Plus is one of the best if you really want to try out 5G. However, if you’re just fine coasting by with 4G for the next year or two, we suggest considering some of the rivals...

Motorola Moto G 5G Plus review

With the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus, the company ushers its most popular series in the 5G era. The company aims to rekindle its old glory by delivering the...

Rather sturdy build.

No telephoto camera.

As things stand now it's trading blows with competitors from Xiaomi and Realme, which in itself is a great achievement for Motorola. The stock Android, 90Hz panel and great battery life will be enough to entice a lot of potential buyers, while a small...
