Design

Motorola Moto G71 5G, G51 5G, G41, and G31 feature similar designs, but they are not identical. The Moto G71 5G has the most suggestive color variants, while the Moto G51 5G provides the highest screen-to-body ratio. However, the Moto G51 5G is a lot bigger in size because it packs a wider display. All the others have more or less the same dimensions since they sport the same display diagonal.

 

Display

With the exception of the Motorola Moto G51 5G, all of these devices come with the same display: an AMOLED panel with a diagonal of 6.4 inches and a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. The Moto G51 5G has a very wide 6.8-inch panel with a Full HD+ resolution and a higher 120 Hz refresh rate, but it is just an IPS panel and this means that the image quality provided by Moto G71 5G, G41, and G31 is better.

 

Specs & Software

The most powerful device of the lineup is the Motorola Moto G51 5G sporting a midrange-class Snapdragon 695 mobile platform and up to 8 GB of RAM. Right after, we got the Moto G51 5G with the Snapdragon 480+ 5G chipset and up to 8 GB of RAM. Both Moto G41 and G31 are equipped with an Helio G85 chipset, but the G41 offers more RAM: up to 6 GB instead of 4 GB. The phones are all based on Android 11.

 

Camera

The most advanced camera department is provided by Moto G71 5G and G51 5G, both packing a triple camera with a 50 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultrawide lens, and a 2 MP macro camera.

 

Battery

The four handsets all come with the same battery capacity: 5000 mAh. But the Moto G71 5G is able to provide the longest battery life because its processor is built with a better production process and is more energy-efficient. Moto G71 5G and G41 support 30W fast charging, while Moto G51 5G and G31 do not support fast charging.

 

Price

The Moto G71 5G has a €399/$450 starting price, Moto G51 5G starts from €279/$315, Moto G41 costs €269/$305, and Moto G31 is priced at €239/$270 in its base variant (prices vary depending on the market). The Moto G71 5G is naturally the best one, but its price is high. Moto G51 5G is not the best for everyone as it comes with a very wide IPS display, while the Moto G31 is the one offering the highest value for money.
