Editorial report

Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G technical sheet

The Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G suits buyers looking for a large display with stylus support. Its 6.8″ screen runs at 120 Hz, a higher refresh rate than most phones launched around the same time. The screen-to-body ratio is 85%, also better than most of its contemporaries, while its 387 ppi pixel density is typical.

Its 256 GB of storage exceeds that of most phones of its time; 6 GB of RAM is typical. The main camera has a typical 48 MP resolution, while its f/1.7 aperture is among the brightest of its time. An 8 MP ultrawide camera adds a wider framing option. The 5,000 mAh battery capacity is typical, but 10 W charging is slower than on most phones launched around the same time.

At 217.5 g, the phone is heavier than most of its contemporaries, and its 9.4 mm thickness is also greater than that of most. It runs Android 11 and supports expandable storage. Overall, the Moto G Stylus 5G is typical among phones launched around the same time, with a NeoScore of 5.3. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize stylus support, a 120 Hz display and ample storage, and can live with a heavier body and slower charging. The combination of screen size and stylus support is central to its appeal; the trade-offs are physical bulk and charging speed.
