Never worry about battery again with this $150 Moto G Power Prime Day deal
Get a good chunk off one of the best budget phones you can buy right now
The Moto G Power (2021) launched with a solid mid-range chipset, the Snapdragon 662. It retailed for $200 for the 3GB/32GB model and $250 for the 4GB/64GB version. For the price, it wasn’t a bad phone by any means. But the existence of similar-priced budget devices like the Samsung Galaxy A13 5G with a better display, longer-lasting software support, and slightly better cameras made it hard to recommend. However, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better deal on a budget phone at a whopping $100 off the 4GB/64GB model for Prime Day.

Cheap phones don't have to be boring, but this one is
Read update
You could argue that Motorola made budget phones worth buying when it launched the original Moto G in 2013. That device was a marvel at the time—for under $200, you could get a smartphone that didn't suck. Suddenly, everyone was making $200-300 phones that also mostly didn't suck. Today, the mid-range space is much more crowded, and Moto has sometimes failed to make a splash with the annual Moto G revamp. This year there are three new G-series phones, including the Moto G Power. Arguably, this is the device with the widest appeal. There's no stylus included, but it's got more muscle than the G Play, and it has a big honkin' battery.This device clocks in at a slightly lower price than last year's G Power; it starts at $199.99 with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. It's recognizable as a Moto G with its competent plastic housing and clean version of Android. However, Motorola seems to have cut some corners to keep the price down. The new G Power has less RAM and storage than last year's phone, and while the display is a bit larger, the resolution dropped from 1080p to 720p. Despite having fewer pixels to render, the G Power still feels more sluggish than it should. Motorola is also launching this phone with Android 10, and it only guarantees one major OS update. The 2021 G Power isn't a throw-away, but it's not particularly good, either.

Plus, Moto's cheapest 5G phone yet
The original Moto G pioneered the mid-range phone space, and subsequent released have offered at least respectable value. After a few stumbles, we quite liked last year's Moto G Power and G Stylus. A new generation of budget Moto phones launch this very month, and three of them are Moto G phones. There are new, more powerful versions of the G Power and G Stylus, as well as a G Play priced at just $170. If you want to step up from the G, Motorola also has the new Motorola One 5G Ace, which is its cheapest 5G phone yet at $400.
