The American company, known for its high-end smartphones, Motorola, has launched its Moto G 2025 series of phones with a premium design and affordable price.
The new phones are the Moto G Power 2025 with a higher capacity and a price tag of US$300 [415,914 Frw] and the Moto G 2025 with a price tag of US$200 [277,276 Frw].
The Moto G Power has ‘IP68’ and IP69’ certifications, which indicate its ability to withstand water and dust [water-resistance and dust-resistance].
The phone has also been certified as a robust device that can withstand the elements. When a phone or other device has this certification, it means that it has been tested in various ways.
For example, Motorola says you can drop the Moto G Power from 1.2 meters without any damage. It says the phone can withstand temperatures up to 60 degrees Celsius without any loss of performance.
This is more than you need to keep your phone safe, but it doesn’t matter if you know your phone is still intact.
The Moto G Power is just nine millimeters thick and has a 6.8-inch LCD screen. It’s made of tough, shatterproof Gorilla Glass 5, made by Corning Inc.
LCD [Liquid Crystal Display] is a technology used to make screens for electronic devices, instead of being able to see what we see like on a phone, which requires light to be reflected from behind the screen [backlight].
This is different from the ‘OLED display’, which has the ability to display colors that are bright or dark as they are, which is due to the fact that each small area of ​​the screen [pixel] has the ability to light up or turn off separately.
The Moto G Power has a 5,000mAh battery. This means that if the phone is used properly, the battery can last between 24 and 48 hours, but if it is used intensively, the battery can last between eight and ten hours.
It has a way to increase the battery without using a cable [wireless charging].
The Moto G has a 6.7-inch screen made of Gorilla Glass 3, and IP52 ratings for water and dust resistance.
Both phones feature 50-megapixel rear cameras.
Starting January 30, 2025, the Moto G phones will be available on Motorola.com, Amazon, and Best Buy, while the Moto G Power will be available in stores starting February 6, 2025.
