Motorola Moto G9 technical sheet
The Motorola Moto G9 suits buyers looking for a large display and a generous battery, provided they can live with a 60 Hz screen refresh rate that is lower than on most phones launched around the same time.
Its 6.5-inch IPS LCD has a 720 × 1600 resolution and 269 ppi, lower than on most phones from that period. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 is paired with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of expandable storage. Its AnTuTu score of 174,500 is below average, and overall performance is worse than on most phones launched around the same time. This is a more modest setup for everyday tasks than a choice for buyers focused on processing power.
The 48 MP main camera has an f/1.7 aperture, among the brightest on phones of its time, but the camera overall is below average. It has neither optical zoom nor optical image stabilization. The 5,000 mAh battery offers more capacity than most phones launched around the same time, while 20 W charging is above average. NFC, USB-C, a 3.5 mm audio jack and dual SIM round out connectivity, which is above average.
With a NeoScore of 4.5, the Moto G9 is a reasonable fit for buyers who value a large battery, expandable storage and a roomy screen, and can accept modest display sharpness and below-average performance.
