Motorola Moto G Stylus (2023) vs Motorola Moto G 5G

Buy the Moto G Stylus (2023) if you want a built-in pen for notes and sketching; buy the Moto G 5G if you want a sharper screen and more front-camera detail. The Stylus has the pen, a 4K-capable rear camera and expandable storage, but its 720p panel and 4GB of RAM are the weak points. The G 5G counters with a 1080p display, a 13MP selfie camera and a rated 4.4 out of 5 from owners, though it ships with only 64GB and no listed microSD slot.

• Choose the Moto G Stylus (2023) if you take handwritten notes, sketch, or want a pen for precise tapping and a microSD slot for extra storage.
• Choose the Moto G 5G if a sharp 1080p screen and a better front camera matter more to you than a stylus.
