Moto G 2025 review: So much better than I expected

The lovely vegan leather back texture on the Moto G 2025.

Much of Motorola's success over the past few years has been because of its budget-friendly lineup. The company saw substantial success in 2024, growing its market share by 20%, while Samsung and Apple both lost market share, and that's mainly due to the company having a Razr-sharp focus on what it does best.

Enter the Moto G 2025, the unassuming $200 phone that's surprisingly competent. Last year's Moto G 5G 2024 was a pretty terrible phone, even for the low price, but Motorola has turned things around and addressed nearly every complaint I had without raising the price for this year's model. It's a success story few could hope for in an era of high inflation and tariff wars.
