NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Motorola Moto G86 Power is the pick for the best display and performance: pOLED, 4,500 nits, 12GB of RAM, and 5G. The Moto G17 Power is the more balanced choice for anyone who values a lighter phone, while the Moto G06 Power only makes sense if it costs less.

The G86 Power pulls ahead with a pOLED display at 1,220 × 2,712 px and Wi-Fi 6E, versus the G17 Power’s 1080 × 2,400 IPS LCD and the G06 Power’s 720 × 1,640 IPS LCD. Performance is another clear step up: 985,368 in AnTuTu versus 262,000 on both lower models, plus 12GB of RAM instead of 8GB.

For battery capacity, the G06 Power leads with 7,000 mAh, versus 6,000 mAh in the G17 Power and 6,720 mAh in the G86 Power, and it reaches 1,200 charge cycles versus 1,000. The G17 Power weighs 190 g, compared with 220 g for the G06 Power and 198 g for the G86 Power; the G86 Power adds IP68, IP69, MIL-STD-810H, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and 4K recording.
