I had a previous iteration of the moto g stylus for 3-4 years which worked amazing. It slowed considerably in the final year I used it, but I still have it and it boots up.
This 2024 model on the other hand, I just got it over the summer and I have a major complaint. The camera won't stay open for more than 30 seconds before it crashes. I have to restart the whole phone to take a picture, which is maddening no John.
Its a shame because its a great camera, but the phone seems to have insufficient memory to support it. If anyone has a fix for this I would love to hear it

Does the 5G stylus have the ability to FLASH when phone rings?

had this phone for a year or two. very good looking screen for a budget phone. its fast enough. It hits over 600mbps on 5G, and around 700-800mbps on a good wifi.
Motorola launcher is pretty friendly as well.
I have no regrets getting this phone. Oh and the battery life is very good. I let it sit almost a whole weekend and it only dropped from 100 to 96. it would last forever on standby.

I've had this phone for 3 years and it's performed flawlessly in everything that I have put it through. I went through a phase of recording videos and submitted it at least 40 different aftermarket camera software. I did video editing, picture editing, and art with the stylus. It's time to trade it in as the charging port has become finicky. I would recommend it but not in 2024 with so many other options to choose from

2yrs old. WiFi is crap on less full signals. Drops out and will not reconnect in any signal strength. My E2 and G4 Connect, reconnect and stay connected. BT refuses 2 reconnect. Has a status light. Only flashes on in power up. I miss the status light. I wonder if rooting can enable and designate functions. Camera does well on zoom. Close will not focus. Everything else seems good. Motorola really went crap when Lenovo took over.

I have this phone for over a year. I'm pleased overall with the performance of this phone. As pointed out already this phone is BIG. It has a large battery which accounts for its size and power. The screen is very large as well. Its very responsive and has fast charging. I have the 128 4GB model and it has more than enough room for a lot of apps.
It has no NFC but this is a Moto thing on their lower end phones as I had many Moto phones with no NFC. So if you want a phone to Tap to Pay, this phone will not work.
As for the 5G mode be advised this phone does not support the 5G Micro band. This is the fastest 5G band that is supported by Verizon. But it is short range and found in urban areas due to this. You will connect on 5G where available but on the slower 5G bands that are used. Of course where that's not available its a 4G LTE phone as the others are.
I don't use the stylus but its a handy feature to have. The phone's size and weight are the only downside and I would not try to put it in your pants pocket if you want to keep your pants up. Get a decent case to protect it and your good to go. Overall for the price point this a good phone that has 5G support.

I purchased this one, the 6gb version, last year and it is now my backup phone. No problems with these at all. This would be my second one. I dropped my 1st one at 60 mph while on my bike. The case and screen protector did the job as best it could however the screen was spider webbed really bad BUT the dam thing still worked and I used it until I got another. I had just given my backup Xiaomi phone to one of my kids. Always try to have a backup phone guys, Crap happens.

This phone doesn't ring when the screen is off half the time. It is so annoying and frustrating.

I've had this phone for over a year now (the 256GB and 6 gig ram version), and it's decent.
It runs most games smoothly (unless you're trying to run demanding games like Genshin or Honkai, you might have to turn the graphics setting down and you'll get around 30fps).
It also occasionally freezes and may lag occasionally just by swiping around the home screen.
The stylus isn't very useful and the camera is alright. Given the price I got it for though ($200!), it's definitely a good mid-range phone with a good battery life.
Finger print scanner works very well, and it has a maximum of 120Hz, which I've never seen happen except for some Instagram reels.

I had it since early 2022 and it just wouldn't turn back on after I shut it off last night....
No matter what I tried with the volume button+ power button its still black screen.
Very disappointed with motorola on this one, and I had other motorola phones before.

it was the best phone i've had. 128gb/4gb version. 3 day battery life, could run anything i shoved in it's face, and was honestly too big. extremely cheap for it's caliber and the only problem i had was it's weight as i was wearing some crappy pants and pulled them up while walking and that flung it out of my pocket and it landed on some rocks and broke the screen but it still worked i just got glass shards in my fingers for the first few days. i can only blame myself for wearing those crappy pants. also it does have fast charging, as i used a chromebook charger with it and it charged in 30 minutes from 18%. dont fast charge if you want to continue having the 3 day battery life. insane price to performance in all areas.
