Motorola Moto G86

“The Motorola Moto G86 5G sets the standard for mid-range displays, with hardly any other smartphone priced around $350 offering this level of brightness. The color reproduction is also excellent, and its high resolution enables crisp images. The high-quality chassis comes in a range of vibrant colors, and looks very attractive. It also now enjoys an IP rating. On the other hand, however, the Wi-Fi and the SoC's performance are rather standard. While you can expect relatively smooth operation, the phone is hardly suitable for demanding tasks.”

“While a markedly better phone than last year's model (and still a great value), like most gadgets around the world, the Moto G86 5G has perhaps seen too high a price jump to warrant an upgrade from its previous iteration.”

“The Moto G86 is a solid option for everyday snaps at a true budget price. While the ultra-wide unit lags behind, the main camera and overall durability makes it a great value choice.”

“This smartphone comfortably establishes itself as a leader in the lower-midrange segment. It’s no longer a budget device, but it doesn’t quite reach the true mid-tier either. In this category, it offers an exceptional display, strong performance, cohesive design, reliable battery life, and adequate cameras.”
