Motorola's new 2025 Moto G stylus is an important feature I want to see in a more expensive phone: ultrafast 68W wired charging.
Beyond this Motorola phone, it's mainly ASUS and Redmagic's OnePlus and gaming phones, which hits these speeds, and it could make the Moto G stylus a very convenient phone. To introduce this, I'm currently testing Motorola's $300 Moto G Power, which offers 30W charging and a 5,000mAh battery, which is also within reach of the new Moto G. Within 30 minutes, the Moto G power was charged from empty function to 61%. If the stylus keep this pattern, then we might get almost complete batteries at that time.
At a time when budget phones get more features to compete with higher-priced smartphones, Motorola is trying to get its new Moto G phone phones to feature like fast charging. 68W wired charging is connected with 15W wireless charging, and Motorola bills will require the company's own Turnpower Wireless Charger to arrive.
The Moto g stylus has a sketch of image-capable, which sounds similar to the image-capable we powered by Samsung Galaxy AI in the Galaxy S24 and S25 series. You can use a stylus to draw the Moto Note app, and AI will “bring the consumer's drawings to life.” The Chicago-based company also said Stylus will also support AI photo enhancements to improve images regardless of the lighting conditions of the image, other Google AI features such as Circle or Search.
The Moto G stylus from Pantone Gibraltar Sea Edition is next to the Pantone Surf the web version.
The Moto G stylus has a 6.7-inch 1,220p display that runs at a refresh rate of 120Hz and a maximum brightness level of 3,000-NIT, which is quite impressive, as the phone costs $400. The Moto G stylus comes in two colors with wild names: Pantone Gibraltar Sea and Pantone surfing the web. Both seem to be different shades of blue, the former advancing on the navy, and seem to be closer to purple. The phone has IP68 waterproof, which Motorola says can be immersed in 1.5 meters of water for 30 minutes.
The stylus has a 50-megapixel main camera and a 13-megapixel speeding camera, which can also take close-up macro photos. There is also a 32-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies and video calls. Inside the phone is Qualcomm's Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor, which is also used in the $400 Samsung Galaxy A36. The Moto G stylus has 256GB of storage next to 8GB of onboard memory, with the option to add it via RAM Boost feature.
While we need to test it, at the spec level, the Moto g Gylus has a lot of value to appreciate even when compared to phones like the $500 Google Pixel 9a”. I do want to know about software and security support, as it is still the territory for Stylus Lags Samsung and Google. The 2025 Moto G series gets a two-year software update and three-year security update. For an extra $100, you get a 7-year support Pixel 9A, while Samsung offers six years of time for the similarly priced Galaxy A36.
But if fast charging speeds and longer battery life are your biggest priorities, the stylus is really worth a look as long as you want to use your phone only for its three-year security support period.
