NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Motorola Moto G86 Power is the most complete choice: it leads the other two in display, performance, cameras, and connectivity. The Moto G06 Power is the better fit for a 7,000 mAh battery, stronger drop resistance, and seven years of updates; the Moto G15 Power is only the buy if it costs less.

The G86 Power uses a pOLED display rated at 4,500 nits with 1,220 Γ— 2,712 px, versus the G15 Power's 1,000-nit IPS LCD at 1,080 Γ— 2,400 px and the G06 Power's 1,000-nit IPS LCD at 720 Γ— 1,640 px. It is also the most compact and lightest at 198 g, compared with 203 g and 220 g. The G06 Power counters with Class A drop resistance, 270 tests, and Class A repairability; the other two have Class B and 180 tests.

For performance, the G86 Power pairs a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 with 985,368 AnTuTu points and 12 GB of RAM, while the other two reach 262,000 and have 8 GB. Its main camera uses a 1/1.95β€³ sensor and records 4K; the G15 and G06 use 1/2.76β€³ sensors and top out at 1080p. The G86 adds 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, and a 32 MP front camera; the G06 keeps the largest battery at 7,000 mAh and offers seven years of updates versus two for the G15.
