Motorola has got a new mid-range contender, the Moto G56 5G, and it seems they couldn’t wait to show it off. The phone popped up on their official website in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, spilling key details ahead of its planned reveal on May 29, 2025. This accidental leak has given us a juicy look at what’s coming, and it’s shaping up to be a solid upgrade over last year’s Moto G55. Let’s dig into what Motorola let slip.
Key details revealed by the listing
The listing on the Slovak websites confirmed a bunch of specs before the company pulled the pages. The phone sports a 87% screen-to-body ratio, protected by Gorilla Glass 7i for scratch and drop resistance. It’s built tough, boasting IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance—good for surviving 1.5 meters underwater for 30 minutes—and MIL-STD-810H certification for drops up to 1.2 meters.
Under the hood, the MediaTek Dimensity 7060 chip powers things, paired with 8GB of RAM (with virtual RAM expansion) and 256GB of storage, expandable up to 2TB via microSD.
Camera-wise, the Moto G56 features a 50MP main sensor — the Sony Lytia LYT-600 (1/1.95″) — which is also used as the primary sensor in the iQOO Neo 10. In the front, the G56 packs a 32MP sensor for the selfie camera, which is reportedly four times more light-sensitive than its predecessor.
The phone has a 5,200mAh battery with 30W fast charging, which should keep you going all day with quick top-ups. It runs Android 15 out of the box, and while full specs weren’t posted, the leak confirms four Pantone-inspired colors—Dazzling Blue, Dill, Black Oyster, and Gray Mist—each with unique back panel textures for some extra flair.
Though Motorola removed the listing, the internet doesn’t forget. This slip-up has us hyped for the official launch, especially with whispers of a €250 price tag for the 8GB/256GB model.
The world’s biggest chipmaker, TSMC, is raising red flags about new US tariffs that could throw a wrench into its massive $165 billion investment in Arizona. In a bold move, the company is urging the US Department of Commerce to keep chip imports duty-free.
In a letter sent on May 5 by TSMC’s Arizona subsidiary, the company laid out its case against new Section 232 tariffs on semiconductor imports. TSMC is already pouring $65 billion into three wafer fabs in Phoenix—one is up and running, another is almost done, and the third just broke ground. On top of that, they’ve committed another $100 billion for three more fabs, two advanced-packaging plants, and an R&D center, totaling a whopping $165 billion.
With all six fabs are fully operational, Arizona will reportedly churn out 100,000 wafers a month—about 30% of TSMC’s projected capacity for cutting-edge 2-nanometer chips and beyond. The company says this could spark $200 billion in economic activity and create tens of thousands of jobs.
But here’s the catch:
TSMC warns that tariffs could jack up prices for end products like phones and computers, which would likely crush chip demand. That would make it harder to justify the Arizona expansion, especially since the US doesn’t produce a lot of the specialized equipment and materials TSMC needs. The company is asking for duty-free access for firms with major US chip production to keep supply chains smooth.
This comes as the US Department of Commerce wraps up a Section 232 report, due soon after May 26, amid talk from former President Donald Trump about slapping up to 100% tariffs on Taiwanese chips, claiming Taiwan “stole” US business.
TSMC is pushing back hard, saying its Arizona plans—and America’s chipmaking ambitions—hinge on avoiding those tariffs. With so much at stake, all eyes are on how the US balances trade policy with its semiconductor goals.
Ultra-thin smartphones are stealing the spotlight, and Infinix is stepping up to challenge Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge with its upcoming Hot 60 Pro+. A recent hands-on comparison by tipster Ice Universe has revealed just how close these two devices are in the race for the thinnest phone, sparking excitement about what Infinix has in store. With both phones pushing the boundaries of design, let’s dive into the details of this unexpected rivalry.
Infinix Hot 60 Pro+ looks slimmer due to its curved design, and is even lighter
According to Ice Universe’s comparison video, the Infinix Hot 60 Pro+ measures a razor-thin 5.95mm (the calipers used in the video only show one decimal point), only slightly thicker than the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge’s 5.8mm frame.
While the Hot 60 Pro+ is technically thicker than the S25 Edge, it appears even thinner thanks to its curved sides, as the tipster noted and the image confirms. It’s good to see Infinix is experimenting with the slim form factor rather than blindly copying what the market has already accepted.
But here’s more. The Hot 60 Pro+ is even lighter – tipping the scales at 154.6g compared to the S25 Edge’s 163.8g. This makes the Infinix a featherweight contender, but the big question is: how does it manage such a slim profile without skimping on power? The Galaxy S25 Edge includes a disappointing 3,900mAh capacity, and the battery life isn’t acceptable in 2025.
For comparison, last year’s Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ was 6.8mm thick, weighed 162g, and packed a 5,000mAh battery. With newer silicon-carbon battery tech becoming a common feature for Chinese smartphones, there’s hope the Hot 60 Pro+ could fit a larger battery.
While the S25 Edge, priced at $1,099.99, boasts premium features like a 200MP camera and Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, the Hot 60 Pro+ is expected to target the mid-range market, likely costing under $500. The hands on video also hints at a triple camera setup, however, specifications are under wraps at this point. Keep an eye out, as more information is likely to surface as we inch closer to the launch.

Samsung is diving headfirst into the world of extended reality (XR) with its Project Moohan headset, and it’s just shown up on Geekbench, giving us a sneak peek at what’s coming. Teased as a collaboration with Google, this headset—possibly launching as the Galaxy XR—promises to shake up the VR and AR scene and compete with Apple’s Vision Pro. Alongside it, Samsung’s cooking up two more XR devices, Project Haean and Project Jinju, which might bring sleek smart glasses to the table. Let’s break down what we know so far.
Project Moohan headset (Image: Samsung)
The Project Moohan headset, model SM-I610, is now almost confirmed to be powered by the Qualcomm’s Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip thanks to the Geekbench listing. This chip rocks six Cortex-A78C cores—two clocked at 2.36GHz and four at 2.05GHz—paired with an Adreno 740 GPU, and is built specifically for XR applications.
Project Moohan (SM-I610) XR headset
It’s designed for smooth, immersive experiences, supporting low-latency full-color passthrough (12ms), Wi-Fi 7 for fast connections, and cool VR tricks like foveated rendering and Space Warp. That last one doubles frame rates by filling in missing frames, which could make VR feel snappier and help keep motion sickness at bay. With 16GB of RAM and Android 14 (likely the new Android XR OS), the headset has a revamped interface for virtual displays and hand-based controls, making it a powerhouse for mixed reality.
Project Haean / Project Jinju are speculated to be smart glasses
Interestingly, another Samsung device, SM-I130—likely Project Haean or Jinju—also appeared on Geekbench with the same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip, 16GB of RAM, and Android 14. What’s surprising is that these are expected to be slim, glasses-like devices, yet they’re packing the same muscle as the bulkier Moohan headset. This could mean Samsung’s aiming for high-performance XR in a compact form, which is pretty exciting.
Project Haean or Jinju (SM-I130)
No official launch date’s been set for Project Moohan, but rumors point towards Samsung’s next Unpacked event, where new Galaxy foldables might share the spotlight. With its beefy specs and Google’s Android XR platform, this headset could give competitors like the Apple Vision Pro a run for their money. Stay tuned for what’s next as more information is likely to surface as we inch closer to the June-July Unpacked event.
Realme and iQOO continue their predictable cycle of mid-year smartphone releases, this time with the GT 7T and the Neo 10. Both phones follow a familiar formula of offering big AMOLED displays, fast charging, and performance-centric internals.
But there are obvious differences between the two. The GT 7T leans heavily into display quality and longer software support. The Neo 10, on the other hand, tries to differentiate through a newer Snapdragon chipset and slightly better thermals and performance tuning, at least on paper. Let’s break it all down.
From a distance, both phones look like standard fare. Both feature glass fronts, large panels, and symmetrical bezels. But the two phones differ slightly in terms of build quality.
The GT 7T has an IP68/IP69 rating, which means the device can be submerged and hit with even high-pressure water. iQOO also offers an IP rating for Neo 10, but it’s just resistant to low-pressure water jets with IP65.
For any positives, iQOO does add a MIL-STD-810H tag, but as usual, that means little unless you’re actively trying to stress-test the phone in extreme conditions.
The materials used tell a similar story. The Neo 10 has a plastic back and frame, while the GT 7T has a more polished finish, particularly with its “IceSense” color variants. Theyuse graphene material for thermal conductivity and have a glass fiber finish on the back.

2. Displays
Realme and iQOO both bring AMOLED panels with over a 6.7-inch footprint. The iQOO Neo 10 touts a 144Hz refresh rate, slightly edging out the GT 7T’s 120Hz, but there’s more to it.
Where Realme really sets itself apart is brightness. The GT 7T has a peak brightness of 6000 nits, which is a notable jump over the Neo 10’s already high 4400 nits. However, these numbers are hardly likely to make a difference in real life. Both should be plenty bright for use outdoors. Realme also includes Dolby Vision and HDR10+, while iQOO’s HDR support isn’t as well defined.
Color depth and resolution are mostly the same. Both displays push 1280 x 2800 resolution at around 453ppi, and both can render 1 billion colors. But the GT 7T also uses ArmorShell glass, which is likely more resistant to scratches and drops than the standard offering on the Neo 10.
3. Software and Updates
The phones come pre-installed with Android 15 out of the box. Realme is further promising 6 years of Android upgrades, meaning the device is good for up to the 2030s.
In contrast, the iQOO Neo 10 tops out at 3 years of major OS updates, which is in line with most midrange Android devices, but still looks dated when stacked next to Realme’s new update policy.
On the UI side, it’s Realme UI 6.0 vs Funtouch 15. Neither is stock Android, and both are packed with extra features and some bloat. The experience will mostly come down to personal preference, though Realme’s UI tends to feel more polished over time.
4. Performance
This is where things get more technical. The iQOO Neo 10 uses the newer Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, while the GT 7T goes with MediaTek’s Dimensity 8400 Max. Both are built on a 4nm process, both are powerful, and neither will struggle with day-to-day performance or gaming.
The Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 includes a Cortex-X4 performance core, which should give it the edge in raw benchmark scores and GPU-heavy workloads. The Adreno 825 GPU on the Neo 10 is expected to outperform the Mali-G720 MC7 inside the Realme device in most gaming scenarios.
That said, Realme has done a decent job optimizing the Dimensity series in the past, so real-world differences may not be dramatic unless you push the phone with long gaming sessions or resource-intensive tasks.
Both phones also include Circle to Search, an AI feature that’s slowly making its way across Android devices. It’s not exclusive anymore, but it’s still notable.
5. Cameras
You’ll find near-identical dual-camera setups on both devices:
50MP main sensor with OIS
8MP ultrawide sensor
Realme adds a color spectrum sensor, which may help with white balance accuracy. It also seems to use a larger main sensor (1/1.56”) compared to iQOO’s 1/1.95”, which might give it a slight edge in low-light conditions. The GT 7T also supports 4K selfie video, while the Neo 10 caps out at 1080p on the front-facing camera, despite both using a 32MP sensor.
Video capabilities are nearly identical: 4K at 60fps, OIS, and gyro-EIS on the main camera. Don’t expect flagship-level imaging, but both phones should do fine in daylight and controlled lighting.
6. Battery and Charging
Both phones carry a 7000mAh battery, which is more than most devices in this segment and should provide solid two-day battery life for average users.
Charging is also fast on both. They each support 120W wired charging. iQOO also supports Power Delivery and PPS at 100W, plus reverse wired charging. That might matter if you want to charge another device from your phone. Both support bypass charging, which is helpful when gaming while plugged in
7. Connectivity and Extras
Both phones feature stereo speakers, under-display fingerprint scanners, and support for dual SIM, NFC, IR blasters, and high-accuracy GNSS positioning. Neither includes a 3.5mm headphone jack, but both support high-res audio through USB-C.
Where iQOO edges ahead is in Wi-Fi 7 support, offering slightly better future-proofing compared to Realme’s Wi-Fi 6.
8. Final Thoughts
The GT 7T is the more well-rounded device, particularly for users who value display brightness, software updates, and durability. The Neo 10, meanwhile, delivers better value for performance and could appeal more to gamers and those on tighter budgets.
Neither phone changes the midrange game, but they do reflect how far that segment has come. If you’re picking one, the decision likely comes down to priorities: better software and build with Realme, or stronger internals and affordability with iQOO.

Realme’s latest GT 7 series has just been expanded with two new entries, namely the Realme GT 7 and Realme GT 7T. At first glance, the duo might look quite similar, but there are a few critical differences that set them apart. If you’re deciding which one offers better value, here are the top 3 things that differentiate between the two.
Realme GT 7 vs Realme GT 7T: Design & Display
The Chinese brand’s new Realme GT 7 and Realme GT 7T are nearly identical in terms of design, but the former has a slimmer 8.3mm body compared to the latter’s 8.88mm body. There are also a few differences when we look at their displays. Realme offers a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution (2780×1264 pixels), 120Hz refresh rate, 360Hz touch sampling rate, and up to 6000 nits peak brightness. This screen also offers 2,600Hz PWM dimming, DC dimming, and 100 percent DCI-P3 color gamut.
Realme GT 7
On the other hand, the Realme GT 7T sports a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel with a 1.5K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 6000 nits of peak brightness, and 100 percent DCI P3 color gamut as well. So you only miss out on the high frequency PWM dimming. While this isn’t a big difference, PWM dimming allows is a more efficient way of controlling the OLED display while also reducing strain on the user’s eyes.
Please Note: When you buy something using the links in our articles, we may earn a small commission at no cost to you.
Performance
Realme GT 7T
One of the biggest differences between them is in performance. Realme equips the GT 7 with a MediaTek Dimensity 9400e SoC, which is an underclocked version of the Dimensity 9400. Meanwhile, the Realme GT 7T features the Dimensity 8400 MAX chipset. The Dimensity 9400e is faster than the Dimensity 9300+ chip and offers near flagship level performance, while the Dimensity 8400 MAX is basically a processor for upper mid range devices.
Camera
Photography is another area with key differences, as the Realme GT 7 features a triple camera setup compared to the GT 7T’s dual rear cameras. The GT 7 has a 50MP Sony IMX 906 main sensor along with an 8MP ultra wide angle lens, and 50MP telephoto shooter with 2x optical zoom. You also get Dolby Vision and 4K60fps recording on the primary rear camera. For selfies and video calls, the Realme GT 7 has a 32MP shooter.
On the Realme GT 7T, you get a 50MP Sony IMX896 main camera and an 8MP ultra wide angle lens. The front houses the same 32MP camera. This means that the Realme GT 7 should offer a better and more versatile photography experience, at least on paper.
Pricing
Realme GT 7 Dream Edition
Keeping these 3 key differences in mind, it makes sense that the Realme GT starts from a higher 37,999 INR price tag for the 8GB + 256GB base variant. The same 8GB + 256GB option on the Realme GT 7T has a more affordable 34,999 INR price tag.

Huawei‘s next gen flagship smartphone has just surfaced online once again. This time around, more details regarding the Pura 80 Pro’s camera specs have been revealed, which hints at a flagship photography experience. So here’s what we know.
Huawei Pura 80 Pro is bringing a huge primary camera sensor
The latest leak arrives from known tipster Digital Chat Station, who shared the information on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website). In the online post, he claims that the upcoming Huawei Pura 80 Pro will feature a brand new 1-inch main camera, which might be part of a new line called SmartSens. This camera will have a 50MP resolution and will reportedly offer top-of-the-line photography experience.
Huawei Pura 70 Ultra
DCS adds that the sensor could carry the SC5A0CS moniker and might be developed by Huawei. In other words, it won’t be using third party image sensor makers like Sony or OmniVision. The company has experience in imaging technology, so SmartSens could be a direct competitor that it might offer to other Chinese brands. Notably, this is in stark contrast to Digital Chat Station’s previous leak, where he claimed that the Pura 80 Pro would employ a 1-inch Sony IMX989 50MP main camera.
Keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report at the moment, so take this news with a pinch of salt. Based on what we know so far, the Pura 80 Pro may sport a tall 6.78-inch LTPO OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and high refresh rate. This model will likely run on the latest HarmonyOS iteration. The 50MP main 1-inch camera could also be paired with a 50MP periscope telephoto shooter and a 50MP ultra wide angle lens. All three sensors will reportedly use a custom RYYB color filter for improved low light photography.

Lenovo has officially launched the Legion C7 Pro gaming chair in China. The chair is listed on JD.com with a retail price of 1,399 yuan (approximately $195). It is designed to deliver comfort and durability for gamers and professionals who spend long hours at a desk.
Lenovo Legion C7 Pro Specifications
The Legion C7 Pro features a pneumatic lumbar support system that extends automatically from the backrest. Users can adjust the support level using a press mechanism, allowing them to personalize the lower back support based on their posture. Lenovo has focused on ergonomic support by designing the chair around a five-zone structure that targets the neck, shoulders, back, waist, and hips.
The seat cushion uses a high-density cold-foam memory sponge. Lenovo has molded the cushion as a one-piece unit to improve support and weight distribution. The chair also includes a large memory foam headrest to enhance neck comfort during recline sessions.
Lenovo equips the chair with armrests that support 7cm of vertical adjustment and 15 degrees of inward or outward rotation. These armrests have a wider surface area compared to standard designs. The backrest supports recline angles from 90 to 135 degrees and includes a 15-degree rocking function.
The base of the Legion C7 Pro uses reinforced steel and features an SGS-certified Class-4 gas lift. According to Lenovo, the gas lift has passed 120,000 durability tests. The five-star base can handle up to 1300kg of static pressure. The chair includes silent PU-coated caster wheels that move smoothly on various floor types without causing damage.
The frame is covered in synthetic leather that resists scratches and is easy to clean. Lenovo has designed the chair with precise measurements. The adjustable height ranges from 123cm to 130cm, while the seat is 55cm wide and 48cm deep. The backrest measures 85cm in height and 52cm in width. The armrest height adjusts between 30cm and 38cm, and the seat height from the ground ranges from 43cm to 51cm. The base has a diameter of 69cm.
The Legion C7 Pro is available in three color options: Ice White, Carbon Black, and Flame Red. All variants feature the Legion brand identity and design language.

Apple is reportedly experimenting with a groundbreaking 200-megapixel camera sensor, potentially revolutionizing iPhone photography in the coming years. According to a recent leak, this high-resolution sensor could redefine the capabilities of future iPhone models, with whispers of significant design changes on the horizon. As anticipation builds for Apple’s next big release, these developments hint at a transformative era for iPhone enthusiasts.
Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station revealed that Apple is actively testing a 200-megapixel sensor, most likely intended for the main camera of an upcoming iPhone. While the iPhone 17 series, set for release in 2025, has its design largely finalized, this cutting-edge sensor is expected to debut in the iPhone 19 (2027), Apple’s 20th anniversary iPhone.
The blogger also hinted at major design shifts over the next three years, including a hole-punch screen with under-screen Face ID for the iPhone 18 and a true full-screen display with both Face ID and front camera embedded under the screen for the iPhone 19. These advancements suggest Apple is pushing toward sleeker, more immersive designs.
Meanwhile, details about the iPhone 17 series have surfaced, showcasing incremental yet notable updates. The iPhone 17 Air, rumored to be just 5.5mm to 5.6mm thick, will feature a “horizontal runway” camera design, emphasizing a slim and stylish profile. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will retain a familiar look to the iPhone 16 Pro but introduce a distinctive “camera bar” on the rear.
The fact that Apple is testing a 200MP sensor and exploring futuristic display solutions points to a future where photography and design converge in exciting new ways.
The Moto G Play and Moto G series have always been about budget phones that offer excellent value for the money, and the Moto G Play (2024) and Moto G 5G (2024) are no different. The two Motorola phones bring solid hardware for their prices, including a smooth screen, a long-lasting battery, and Snapdragon chips for smooth performance. However, deep down, there are many differences that could change your decision.
In this detailed comparison, we’ll dive into all the important aspects you should know to make a better purchase decision.
Moto G Play (2024) vs Moto G 5G (2024): A detailed breakdown
Let’s look at what differentiates these two.
Pricing and availability
The Moto G Play (2024) only comes in a single variant with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, currently priced at $130.
The Moto G 5G (2024) has a slightly higher price tag of $170. It also has 4GB memory, but the storage is doubled to 128GB. There’s more to this Motorola phone than just bigger storage. We’ll get to them as we go through the remaining sections.
Both Motorola phones come in a single color option — ‘Sapphire Blue’ for Moto G Play and ‘Sage Green’ for Moto G 5G. They are widely available in the US and Canada.
Both Motorola phones resemble typical budget phones, featuring thick bezels on all sides. However, it’s good to see hole-punch selfie cameras rather than a waterdrop style that takes more space to fit in the camera.
The rear designs are also similar, except that the Moto G 5G (2024) has an eco-leather back instead of a plastic one on the Moto G Play (2024). This provides better grip and protection against accidental drops, and it’s also less prone to fingerprint smudges.
Display
The Moto G Play has a 6.5-inch LCD screen with 90Hz refresh rate support. The Moto G 5G is narrowingly taller, at 6.6 inches, and offers a higher 120Hz refresh rate. However, both phones have the same HD+ screen resolution.
The Moto G Play does have better screen protection. It’s rocking a Corning Gorilla Glass 3, while the other Motorola phone doesn’t have any.
Performance and software
The Moto G Play (2024) is powered by a Snapdragon 680 chipset. The chipset offers smooth performance with regular day-to-day tasks. However, it lacks a 5G modem, which is why the Moto G Play doesn’t have 5G connectivity.
On the other hand, the Moto G (2024) has a more powerful Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 chipset with an integrated 5G modem.
Here are the benchmark results:

In the AnTuTu benchmark, the Moto G 5G (2024) delivers a 32% overall performance boost compared to the Moto G Play (2024). The biggest leap comes from the GPU, where it scores over 81% higher, suggesting much better performance in gaming and graphics-heavy tasks.
CPU performance is up by 36%, and the UX score is 44% higher, which translates to faster app launches, smoother multitasking, and a more fluid and responsive user experience.
Both Motorola phones offer clean software, but the update policy is a big letdown — just one Android update. This has been one of the weakest areas of Motorola phones, and the company really needs to take care of it.

In Geekbench tests, the Moto G 5G (2024) shows a dramatic 98% boost in single-core performance compared to the Moto G Play (2024). This means everyday tasks like app launches, browsing, and UI responsiveness would feel a lot faster.
There’s a 29% improvement in multi-core performance, which helps with heavier workloads like multitasking, background processes, or using more demanding apps.
The Moto G Play features a single 50MP camera on the back. It produces decent shots in bright conditions with good details and color accuracy. The quality drops dramatically in low light, and photos generally appear blurry.
The 8MP selfie camera does a fairly good job for its price. Sometimes, the images may appear inconsistent because there’s no autofocus. The video quality is particularly exciting from all cameras. Also, there’s no 4K recording.
The Moto G 5G (2024) also has a 50MP primary camera that does an excellent job for its price. It produces natural-looking photos during the day, with good color accuracy, white balance, and dynamic range. The low-light performance is much improved compared to previous generations, with faster capture and better control over noise and dynamic range.
There’s also a 2MP macro camera on the rear side that doesn’t add much value to the device. The shots lack much detail and appear pixelated. The Moto G 5G can record up to 1080p videos from both sides with acceptable quality.
Connectivity
Both phones have all the necessary connectivity options, such as Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, and multiple positioning systems. However, there’s something that creates a significant difference between the two, and that’s 5G support. The Moto G 5G (2024) supports 5G, but the Moto G Play (2024) doesn’t.
Battery and charging
Both Motorola phones have excellent battery life, easily lasting more than a day on regular usage. Battery-conscious users might be able to stretch it to two days on a single charge. By the way, the phones come with a 5,000mAh battery.
The Moto G Play’s charging peaks at 15W, while the Moto G 5G offers a slightly better 18W charging over a USB-C cable. Neither has wireless charging support.

Moto G Play (2024) vs Moto G 5G (2024): Which is a better deal?
The Moto G Play (2024) and Moto G 5G (2024) both deliver impressive value for their price, staying true to Motorola’s goal of offering budget-friendly smartphones with dependable performance. They share many key features like large 5,000mAh batteries, HD+ displays, and clean software — making them both solid picks for casual users.
However, the Moto G 5G (2024) clearly pulls ahead in several important areas. It offers a significantly faster chipset with nearly double the single-core performance and 81% better GPU scores, which translates into smoother multitasking, better gaming, and a longer-lasting experience overall. It also gives you double the storage, a higher 120Hz refresh rate, eco-leather back, improved camera capabilities, and faster 18W charging — all for just $40 more.
If your usage is light and you’re looking for the most affordable option with great battery life and smooth everyday performance, the Moto G Play (2024) won’t disappoint. But for anyone wanting a more future-proof phone with 5G support and meaningful performance upgrades, the Moto G 5G (2024) is the better deal by far.
