Editorial report

Motorola Moto G87 8 GB / 256 GB / International technical sheet

The Motorola Moto G87 suits buyers who want an exceptionally bright display and a high-resolution main camera, while keeping 5G and a resistant body. Its main trade-off is the battery: 5,200 mAh is less capacity than most phones of its time offer.

The 6.78-inch AMOLED display reaches 5,000 nits and has 450 ppi. Its brightness is among the best, while its pixel density is better than most phones launched around the same time. At 7.3 mm thick and 183 g, the body is also among the best for thinness and weight. IP68, IP69 and IP66 provide water and dust resistance, while MIL-STD-810H covers drops and shocks. The display and design are therefore among the best of the phone’s era.

The 200MP main camera has among the highest resolutions of its time and includes optical image stabilization; an 8MP ultrawide camera adds a wider perspective. Performance is typical for the period: the Dimensity 6400, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of UFS 2.2 storage make a balanced configuration, with expandable storage. Android 16 and six years of OS updates add useful longevity. The Motorola Moto G87 earns a NeoScore of 6.7 and is a strong fit for buyers prioritizing the screen, camera resolution and resistance.
