NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Motorola Moto G87 is the choice for buyers who want a clearly better display and more room: AMOLED, 5,000 nits, 12GB of RAM and 512GB versus the Moto G77 Power's IPS LCD, 1,050 nits, 8GB and 128GB. The G77 Power answers with a 7,000mAh battery versus 5,200mAh and seven years of updates versus six.

The G87 is not just brighter: it has 1,272 × 2,772 pixels and 450 ppi, against 1,080 × 2,400 pixels and 432 ppi. It is also thinner and lighter at 7.3 mm and 183 g versus 8.9 mm and 215 g, with IP68, IP69, IP66 and MIL-STD-810H protection instead of the G77 Power's IP64 and MIL-STD-810H. The G77 Power keeps the 3.5mm jack and reverse charging.

The main camera is balanced: the G87 has 200MP versus 108MP, while the G77 Power has 0.8µm pixels versus 0.5µm and a Dual LED flash versus LED. Both share the Dimensity 6400, 120Hz display, 30W fast charging and expandable storage. The G87 is the more complete phone; the G77 Power fits buyers who value a larger battery, reverse charging and longer software support.
