Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (2021) Specs

I have had this phone for awhile. It still works and has a good battery life. It's all cracked up, has water damage and all but is still kicking. Lol

I had this phone for the last two and a half years and I must say that this phone served me well!

Display is large, bright and colorful and perfect with the stylus this phone tags along. I noticed 3 months into drawing with this phone, that the stylus tip faded away and got rougher to write with later on. One awesome thing that this phone comes with is last location the stylus is taken out, there are moments that I have lost my stylus but this feature helps me narrow my search and finding the stylus.

The 48 MP main camera is really good, sharp photos and high quality, plus high resolution so that I can zoom in. This phone comes a macro camera to take closeup shops and a wide angle camera, to get everything around you. I never figured out what the 4th camera did but online does point out it's a 2 MP depth sensor, so I'm guessing it's for portrait mode to determine the distance.


Battery life is excellent, the 5000 mAh battery lasted me entire days, even with extensive use, the phone would be at 20 percent at the end of the day. Of course time is a cruel punishment for phones and battery degradation is a thing but even through that, my phone can at least make it home with charge to spare.

The build of the phone is plastic, which is reasonable for a phone priced at this range, I am in love with the cosmic emerald color this phone comes in, especially with the angle the light hits the rear when it makes it colorful. The rear unfortunately picks up a lot of fingerprints, even case prints if you decided to protect your phone with a case.

UI is pretty excellent, very customizable and fast to work with. Motorola is infamous for lacking software updates, so it's always exciting seeing that pop-up for a restart, as it's so rare. They promise one OS update, which is a bit lame but some of us can work with it.

Overall, amazing phone, some areas can be improved upon.
TL;DR: Large display, comes with stylus. Battery life is great, cameras are good. UI is customizable but lacks software updates. Good looking phone, especially with the green color.

I've had this phone for 2 weeks now and I'm already loving it. I picked it up at Metro by T-Mobile for $200 with my upgrade discount.
So far, my experience with the device has been great, the phone also comes in 6GB RAM / 256GB storage, being the unlocked variant.
The phone isn't much different from the 4G Only model that was released back in January of this year, so if you have that phone I wouldn't pick this up unless you really want 5G.
The Snapdragon "4"80 processor is actually pretty good, as it smokes 6-series processors. Its essentially the 678 with 750G graphics.

One of the big downsides is the fact it has no NFC at all, which is disappointing.

Build quality is pretty good, it is a plastic build but doesn't feel cheap at all. You will get fingerprints on the rear but if you plan on using a case, I wouldn't worry.

Speaker quality is above average-ish, the 2020 moto g stylus had dual and stereo speakers, which is one of the few things Motorola just took away.

And finally, the phone only comes with a 10W charger for its 5000mAh battery, but you can get an 18W charging brick and make it charge faster if you wish.
