"On one hand, that's a good thing. I liked the 2025 Moto G a lot -- it's a great device with a long-lasting battery and features that made it a "pocket-sized theater". Also: Thousands of readers bought these phones in 2025, but none of us expected no. 1 The downside to adhering so closely to the original formula, however, is that it retains many of the same issues."
"One of the most noticeable changes in the 2026 Moto G is its slightly larger form factor, measuring 167.15 x 76.40 x 8.44 mm (6.58 x 3 x 0.33 inches) and weighing 202 grams. This extra heft doesn't make much of a difference, as it's still sleek and lightweight. It's also comfortable to hold, thanks to its rounded corners and soft vegan leather backing, which gives it a distinctive look."
"The Moto G houses a 6.7-inch HD+ display with a resolution of 1,604 x 720 pixels. While the screen isn't 1080p, it still impresses with its bright and accurate colors, strong peak brightness of 1,000 nits, and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. This is a solid combination of features, enabling vibrant video playback and fluid scrolling. Also: This $180 Motorola proves you're overspending for good cameras and battery life Like the older model, the 2026 Moto G has a robust speaker system fine-tuned by Dolby Atmos."
The 2026 Moto G largely follows the previous model's formula with modest updates to size and styling. The phone is slightly larger and heavier at 167.15 x 76.40 x 8.44 mm and 202 grams, featuring rounded corners and a soft vegan leather back in a bold Cattleya Orchid pink. The handset retains a 6.7-inch HD+ (1,604 x 720) display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1,000-nit peak brightness, Dolby Atmos–tuned speakers, long battery life, and a headphone jack at an affordable roughly $200 price point. Core strengths and lingering shortcomings remain similar to the 2025 model.
