Is the Moto G Stylus (2022) worth it?

Yes if you want a stylus and long battery life for little money. Skip it if you need speed, 5G, or strong low-light photos.

How does it compare with the 2021 model?

The 2022 version moves to the Helio G88, a 90Hz display, and a 50MP main camera. It is a modest step up, not a big jump.

Does the stylus need charging?

No. It is a passive stylus that slides into the phone, so it has no battery and no Bluetooth features.

Can I use two SIMs and a microSD card at once?

It has dual SIM support and a microSD slot for cards up to 512GB. Check whether the tray shares a slot before relying on all three.

The phone, a charger and cable, the stylus, and paperwork. A case and screen protector are usually not included.

Budget Moto G phones drop most around Black Friday and back-to-school sales, and when a newer Stylus model launches.
