The new Moto G, at the ultra-rare $250 price point. [credit: Motorola ]
Motorola is pumping out a new set of phones today. The most interesting is the new mid-range Moto G, and it also sounds like the flagship Motorola Edge 40 Pro is getting repackaged for the US as the Motorola Edge Plus.
First up, the mid-ranger. The Moto G hits a pricing sweet spot at $250 and will arrive in stores sometime this month. For $250, you get a 6.5-inch 1600×720 LCD with a surprising 120 Hz refresh rate, 4GB RAM, 128GB of storage, and a 5000 mAh battery. The SoC is a Snapdragon 480+—that's two ARM Cortex A76 cores and six A55 cores build on an 8 nm process with an Adreno 619 GPU.
There's a fingerprint reader somewhere, but Motorola's spec sheet doesn't say where. The phone has a 3.5 mm headphone jack, a microSD slot, Wi-Fi 5 support, and 15 W charging. The body is plastic, a big downside is that there's no NFC, and while the "water-repellent" design can protect against "accidental spills," it's not submersible. For cameras, you get a 48 MP main sensor and a just-for-looks 2 MP "macro" lens. The front camera is 8 MP.
