Editorial report
Motorola Moto G05 4 GB / 256 GB / International technical sheet
The Motorola Moto G05 suits anyone looking for a straightforward phone for everyday tasks, but its performance and some display and camera specifications trail phones launched around the same time. This international configuration pairs 4 GB RAM with 128 GB storage; the model is also sold with 64 GB or 256 GB. Storage is expandable.
The 6.67-inch IPS LCD display has a 90 Hz refresh rate and 1,000 nits peak brightness, though its refresh rate and 264 ppi are worse than most phones of its time. At 188.8 g, it is lighter than most phones launched around the same time. The MediaTek Helio G81 Extreme and 4 GB RAM leave its hardware among the weakest; its AnTuTu result is 262,000. The 50 MP rear camera has a 1/2.76-inch sensor, smaller than most, and no optical image stabilization.
The 5,200 mAh battery is typical, while 18 W charging is slower than most phones of its time. Android 15, NFC, dual SIM, and stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos round out the features. Overall, the Moto G05 ranks worse than most phones launched around the same time. It is better suited to basic use than to buyers prioritizing performance or photography: NeoScore 4.7.
