Moto G91 5G : Motorola is in the news again, this time with the latest addition to its popular G-series – the Moto G91 5G.
Prized for striking the balance between performance and affordability, the G91 5G is designed to offer a new design, solid specs, and the allure of 5G connectivity — all bundled neatly in a good-looking, and good-feeling, premium package that doesn’t set you back an arm and a leg.
Let’s take a closer look at what sets this phone apart — and where it may be lacking.
Entry into the Mid-range Humbly and Well Dressed
Motorola’s design language has come a long way over the past few years, and the Moto G91 5G is a testament to that.
It features a sleek and modern build, with a slightly curved back, matte finish to keep off the fingerprints and streamlined cameras that doesn’t appear to be bulky.
It does come in cool colors like Metallic Blue, Slate Gray and a hip Iridescent Green, which make the phone look trendy though.
For such a massive display and battery, the device actually feels quite thin and light, so you won’t chafe carrying it around all day, tapping away at your latest binge-watch series or staring blankly and furiously at social media.
Display: Flow Soft and Immiscible
Moto G91 5G device sports a 6.7-inch Full HD+ LCD display that has punchy colors and decent level of brightness that is good for indoors and outdoors.
The panel is 120Hz, and animations, transitions and scrolling feel buttery smooth. Whether you’re gaming, watching YouTube or even just texting, you can feel the smoothness.
It’s not an AMOLED panel, but Motorola has done a good job of tuning the display, and for most people, it won’t be a dealbreaker.
Performance Under the Hood
The phone is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 processor, along with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of memory internally.
This combination delivers an average performance for everyday tasks, for example, opening multiple apps, attending numerous sessions of online classes or playing games like BGMI or Call Of Duty Mobile on medium settings.
It’s no gaming beast, but it’s decent enough for everyday use. And, with Motorola’s near-stock Android experience, there’s scant bloatware, so performance remains snappy over time.
Cameras: Ready for You — and the Elements
The Moto G91 5G comes with 50MP primary lens, 8MP ultra-wide sensor, and 2MP depth camera.
The photos are sharp and detailed in bright light, with good color saturation and decent dynamic range.
The ultra-wide shots turn out decent also, although the edges can get a little soft at times.
Portrait mode is effective and separates your subject well from the background, while in low light it is average, but usable — assisted by Motorola’s Night Vision mode.
At the front there is a 16MP selfie camera that does the job for selfies and video chat.
Battery & Charging: Lasting Power All Day Long
The Moto G91 5G is designed to last with a 5000mAh battery. It stands a full day on a charge, even with heavy use such as streaming video, browsing the web or gaming.
For recharging, if and when you need it, a 33W TurboPower charger chip in the box will charge up the phone reasonably quickly: around 50% in less than 30mins.
Software & Extras
Motorola knows a thing or two about clean software as one of its strengths.
The G91 5G ships running Android 14 and a near-stock build with minimal customizations and useful features (such as Moto Gestures, which include the chop to turn on the flashlight and twist to open the camera).
You also receive 5G support, stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos tuning, a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and IP52 water resistance, meaning it can withstand a bit of rain or splotch.
