Motorola has unveiled the Moto G84 5G in India following the introduction of its premium Motorola Razr 40 series. As the name suggests, the new phone has 5G connectivity.
The Motorola Moto G84 5G features a 120Hz 6.5-inch pOLED display. Motorola has used pOLED panels on multiple smartphones, including its latest Flip phone. It offers deep blacks and rich contrast, similar to AMOLED panels on several smartphones. However, there are tweaks to the underlying components. The display will offer 1300 nits of peak brightness and HRD10 support.
Additionally, the Moto G84 will offer up to 256GB of internal storage and 12GB of RAM.
The rear camera setup includes a 50-megapixel primary camera with OIS. There is also an 8-megapixel secondary sensor. It means Motorola is not adding depth sensor, which several of its Chinese counterparts continue to add. The ultra-wide camera can also double as a macro vision camera.
Similar to many other Motorola phones, the speakers have Dolby Atmos support. There’s also support for “Moto Spatial sound.”
There’s a 5,000mAh battery with 30W Turbopower charging technology. Motorola will provide a charger in the box as well.
A Motorola phone is known for its clean Android OS experience. The phone will also bundle some proprietary apps and features, including Moto Connect. There’s ThinkShield protection to ensure users’ safety online. The phone is assured to receive Android 14 plus three years of security updates.
