Actually a great phone
5 out of 5 stars
Actually a great phone
I am a mobile apps developer. I purchased this phone with no intention whatsoever to use it as my daily phone, put to debug Android applications. For that purpose, it works great. But as I got used to the phone, I found myself liking it more and more, to the point where I ultimately removed my SIM card from my iPhone 7 (AT&T) and am now using the Moto G Fast as my primary device. Compared to my aging iPhone 7, the battery life is great. I had almost forgotten that a smartphone could actually last the entire day without a recharge. The screen is also phenomenal at the price point. Granted, it does not get quite as bright as my iPhone 7 does (that phone actually hurts my eyes if I turn the brightness all the way up), but beyond that it's a great screen and the phone bezels basically do not exist. Performance is great. I have noticed no slowdowns whatsoever, and I would rate it as being at least on-par with the iPhone 7. Now, the iPhone 7 is an older phone so that might not be saying a lot, but to me that phone is snappy as well. I am not doing any gaming or heavy tasks with these devices, so neither phone has slowdowns in my everyday usage. I said I do not do much phone gaming, but I did test it out on a couple of games. I installed Minecraft, which runs great on the phone. The only issue I had is that i find the larger screen size uncomfortable to hold while playing a game in landscape mode such as Minecraft. Maybe uncomfortable is not the correct word, but there are instances where I have to let go of the phone with my right hand to tap on something towards the left side of the screen. Maybe it's just the way I hold it though, again I am not really a gamer. I also tested streaming my son's Xbox One to the phone using the Xbox app and a bluetooth controller, and it worked without issue. Camera quality is hit or miss, possibly the only major con of the phone. If camera is your #1 concern then look elsewhere, of course if that is the case you probably are not shopping in this price range anyway. In well-lit conditions, the camera quality is about on par with my iPhone 7. In poor lighting though, pictures are not that great. It can theoretically record 4k video, but I honestly did not think that the 4k videos looked any better than the 1080p videos, so I kept the setting on 1080p. Built in storage is a weak 32mb, but unlike many "high end" models out there, you can add a Micro SD card, making the low storage basically a non-issue. I put in an old 64gb card I had lying around, and you can have the phone format your card to use it as additional internal storage. The phone charges via USB Type C, and charging seems fast enough, although I've really only had to charge it a few times in the week and a half I've had it, and I've done at it night time so the charge time was largely unnoticed and irrelevant. The phone also includes the illusive headphone jack, which is always welcome these days. There is almost no bloatware included with this device, just a couple of Motorola apps. It is mostly stock Android with minor Motorola customizations. I installed an AT&T SIM card and I am getting good reception and good data speeds. WiFi connectivity is also good. I have not tested out hotspot tethering yet. All in all, I am blown away by how much phone you can get now days at this price point. I was planning on upgrading to an iPhone 12, but I think I am going to stick with this cheap Motorola for the time being. For the price of a new iPhone, I could just get a brand new Motorola every single year for the next six years, at which point the iPhone would be long past due for a replacement anyway. If you are looking for a good budget phone, or even just a good phone period, I would save your money and not hesitate to get this thing. I don't see any reason whatsoever to shell out upwards to a thousand dollars (and even more now days) on a "flagship" phone, when a sub-200 phone works perfectly fine.

  • Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2021
    Size: 128 GBColor: IndigoVerified Purchase
    Well, lets start out with the obvious, this is not a contender against ANY flagship phone. If your looking for all the bells and whistles of a flagship phone at this price, you need to have your head examined.

    That said, if you looking for one of the best value phones from 2020 then this is clearly it.
    I did a huge amount of research before purchasing this phone. In fact, my friend just purchased the Moto G Power 2021 two weeks before I got this one. And honestly I almost got that phone. But after an exhaustive search for a Zizo bolt case for that phone. I could not find one anywhere on Amazon. But on page 26 of my search, I did find this phone's case. And thus the research began.

    As it turns out, with the exception of the extra 1,000ah battery and slightly larger display this phones specs far out weighed that phone. For starters, the display on the Moto G Stylus 2020 has a much better quality display.
    It has a better pixel density. It has a cleaner look when looking at the display. I have had both of these phones
    side by side and when looking at them directly, this phone's display looks cleaner and not as grainy. The Moto G Power 2021 has a bright sparkly output that is actually hard on the eyes. The Moto G Stylus to me comes as close to a Amoled display as I think a budget IPS display gets. The colors a good and robust and I never have to worry about display burn from a Amoled display again.

    It has really good stereo speakers and you can absolutely tell the difference.
    The camera's are freaking awesome for such a low level phone. I have played with all of them and even played
    with the "Action Cam". It works very well. Night mode isn't the greatest but does make my low light photos really clean without any of the nasty white noise that I got from my last cheap phone.
    If you need a panorama shot, it does still have the panorama software, it lets you take a sweeping shot of
    the entire area you want and then the software sews it back together. It's actually pretty cool.

    Another difference between the two phones is the night mode pics. The G Power 2021 takes almost twice
    the amount of time to take the night mode pics as the Moto G Stylus.

    One of the coolest features I have found on this phone is the Moto Audio. This feature should be on every smart phone. It allows you to fine tune system wide audio from what ever source your playing to.
    Say for instance you plug in your headphones, yes it has a headphone jack. It pops up and asks you if you want to
    fine tune the sound to your preference. EQ, sound stage, extra base to name a few. You can apply this to the stock
    speakers, Bluetooth headset, Regular Headphones, Bluetooth speakers. Every device can have it's own sound preference. So if you have a set of cans that need some extra bass. Boom, done. Need some extra sound stage on that cheap Bluetooth stereo speaker. Boom done. Want a custom sound on anything you use. Boom, done.

    One more thing that I found really cool that I honestly didn't even think I was going to use was the Stylus.
    I know, I know. Why the heck would you buy a Stylus phone and not use it. Well, it was all the other features over
    the G Power that really nailed it for me. But, I was working in a building the other day and needed to take some quick jots of measurements and thought, man I need a piece of paper and a pencil. Hey, wait a minute. Pulled out the stylus on my phone before even unlocking it and all of sudden, the app opens up and is ready for some notes.
    I was able to jot down all my measurements and when I put the stylus back in the hole, the app auto saved my notes and went back to sleep. I was blown away at how simple and powerful this was.
    Now lets face it, this is not a drawing pad like the Samsung Note. But it does pretty well at the basics.
    To me, the Stylus was not the high point of the phone. But it does have it's place.

    This is just to name a few things that stand out to me. I honestly don't have anything bad to say about this phone.
    It hits all the buttons and does it well. It is pretty vanilla as an unlocked phone gets. Very little bloatware, and a simple sim swap and I was up and running. Verizon of course.

    I cleaned out all the garbage I didn't want as far as apps are concerned and added my own.
    I completely un-google all of my phones including the app store. I get my apps from other known places.
    Battery life is freaking phenomenal. I unplugged my phone at around 7am and admittedly did not use it much
    as I was at work. I picked it up to check for messages around 4pm and it was still at 100%
    If I use it normally, it's usually around 70% by around 10pm. I've only had it down to 50% once.

    Not sure what else to say. Call quality is great. Speaker phone is super clear and loud. The finger lock
    is finicky if you work with your hands too much. I just use a pin or swipe. I still had my 15 watt charger from
    my last Moto Z Play and it charges fairly quickly. Hope that helps.

    I would take a picture of it, but hmmm it's my only decent camera now : p
    You get the idea : )

    I come to Motorola’s G Stylus after a Samsung Droid Charge (a very aptly named power hog), a Note 3, and a Note 4. I use smart phones till they fail. In the case of the Notes, after they’ve failed several times: the Note 4 was the last Note model that was easily user serviceable.
    After my middle-school son had good experiences with a couple of Motorola budget phones, I had decided I’d try that brand and give up the stylus. Then my Note 4 failed with a main board problem just after the 2020 G Stylus was introduced, so I didn’t have to.
    Forgetting about the stylus for the moment, this is an incredible bargain for a smart phone. As far as technology’s ability to delight, it’s a great time we live in. I’m easily impressed because I’m comparing it to 4-year-old technology, but this thing is available for under $300, and for a brief while was available to new Verizon customers for $150. That is remarkable.
    For that, you get great basic cell phone functionality, more than sufficient speed and storage, and okay (with hopes of better in time) stylus operation.
    This is the first cell phone I’ve owned that I could charge up in the morning and have last the whole day without constantly plugging it in whenever and wherever I could find an outlet. In fact, to improve battery longevity, I only charge it to 80% capacity, and it’s still enough to do that. There’s been criticism of the G Stylus’ 4000 mAh battery compared to the G Power’s 5000, but that hasn’t been a factor for me.
    Reception at the coast has been better than with Iphone 8 Plus and 11 Pro Max phones belonging to other family members. My phone is always the first to have a usable signal.
    The fingerprint security is spot on. This is not the first phone I’ve had with that feature, but it’s the first where it could be relied on.
    It is also absolutely wonderful to have a phone loud enough to play music or conference using speaker phone without an accessory speaker.
    The three cameras give a lot of options. The Iphone owners in the family are probably right that their phone cameras are better. But this is plenty good enough for me, and an improvement over anything I’ve had. I’ve even found the macro camera useful. Haven’t used the panorama camera yet.
    I’ve seen a couple of Youtube videos that persuade me the G Stylus will be user serviceable if/when the time comes, unlike some of the lower-end Motorolas. I’d rather not deal with adhesives at all, but I don’t think that’s a choice left to smart phone owners. If the battery or the USB port needs replacing or there’s water ingress, I could deal with that. Will parts be available as they’ve been with the Note phones? I’m not sure. Fewer G Styluses will be sold; the model life will be 12 months or so; and it’s so cheap many people will replace rather than fix a damaged phone. I have an Otterbox and sapphire glass on it, which has already survived a couple of drops on a concrete floor.
    After two months, the few things less than ideal are:
    - The display has neither the color subtlety or the ultimate brightness that Samsung OLED displays have long had. Use in bright sunlight is difficult. Elsewhere it’s just fine.
    - Motorola’s minimalist version of Android is mostly a plus, especially since all the Samsung bloatware isn’t present. But I do really miss organizing apps into folders. I’ll look further for a work-around.
    - Motorola’s stylus use doesn’t screen out palm touches as you write at the opposite side of the screen. Samsung’s implementations have done this so well and for so long that I’d never realized it was even necessary. This is really frustrating with the G Stylus. But I think it’s something Motorola could correct in software, and I hope they’ll do that.
    - The stylus apps Motorola supplies are limited. I installed and am happy with Microsoft OneNote instead.
    - I’ve mislaid the stylus a couple of times, as I did with my Samsung phones. Motorola and accessory vendors haven’t yet offered replacements.
    A lot of what makes me happy with the G Stylus is due to maturing technology and packaging that now allows a well-executed feature-laden budget phone. But I still give Motorola a lot of credit for doing this.

    This phone is heavy, sturdy and reliable like a pickup truck. It you love to drive a sleek sedan, better to find other phones.
