NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Motorola moto g100 Pro suits buyers who prioritize battery capacity and Wi‑Fi connectivity: its 6,720 mAh battery exceeds the Motorola Moto G86’s 5,200 mAh, and it adds Wi‑Fi 6E. The Moto G86 is the more practical choice for Google Services, expandable storage and a lighter body, at 185 g and 7.8 mm versus 198 g and 8.65 mm.

Both phones use the MediaTek Dimensity 7300, 12 GB of RAM, UFS 2.0 storage and up to 512 GB. The Moto G86 adds expandable storage and Google Services, while the moto g100 Pro has neither. Its display also adds 120Hz; IP68, IP69 and 30W charging are shared.

The choice is even: the moto g100 Pro brings the clearly larger battery and Wi‑Fi 6E, while the Moto G86 combines lower weight and thickness with expandable storage and Google Services. Both list 55 hours per charge cycle on the European energy label and 1,000 charge cycles; price and availability decide the final trade-off.
