Motorola’s Moto G 5G Plus brings super speed to the masses

By now we all know what to expect from a new Moto phone: good specs at a far more wallet-friendly price than rival blowers. And the Moto G 5G Plus ticks all the boxes. The €349 handset offers both 4G and 5G connectivity, the latter obviously being the headline feature. But there’s more to talk about, like a 90Hz 6.7in FHD+ display with HDR10 support and a super skinny 21:9 aspect ratio which should make it a great mini cinema phone. Camera-wise, you’re looking at a 48MP main snapper, a 5MP macro sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide and a 2MP depth sensor. Flip the phone around and you’ll also find the company’s first dual selfie camera setup, comprised of a 16MP main lens and an 8MP ultra-wide sensor for those big family selfies you hate being in so much. Throw in a Snapdragon 765 processor, up to 6GB of RAM, a 5,000mAh battery and even a 3.5mm headphone jack, and you’re getting a lot bang for your buck. Pick one up from tomorrow.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Spurs are going to win a trophy this season.
