This does mean it can feel a bit excessive for those with small hands though, with a bit of stretching needed when reaching for the fingerprint sensor in particular. The main thing you'll be looking at is the 6.5-inch display. This sounds immediately attractive when you consider it offers a 90Hz refresh rate, but there's a catch, as its resolution is pretty low at 720 x 1600. In ordinary use this may well not bother you, but it's a clear example of a price cutting endeavor going on here. The Moto G50 has a 6.5-inch IPS LCD display that's only disrupted ever so slightly by the notch for the selfie camera on the top-center of the screen. Confusingly, such an omission also makes it feel less capable than both the Moto G10 and Moto G30, which offer four rear cameras including an ultra-wide lens.

The image is even noisier, and any sense of detail is replaced with a blur as the camera sensor clearly struggles to cope.Those who pay attention to Snapdragon chipset numbers may worry that the Snapdragon 480 5G is pretty slow, as it's a lower model number than you might see elsewhere. but zoom in, and you’ll see a worrying amount of noise especially around the windows. That doesn’t bode well for low-light conditions, but at sunset the Moto G50 coped reasonably well, all things considered. Here’s a shot of my garden as the sun began to recede. Crucially, when it comes to the 3D performance, it’s a huge improvement on the G10 and G30. Don’t be too drawn in by the eye-catching red line, though – that’s mainly because of the comparatively low-resolution 720p display. But even on the level playing field of the pale orange bar (where output is equalised to 1080p across the board) the Moto G50 goes toe-to-toe with all comers, only narrowly missing out to the marvellous Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC (note: we couldn’t get GFXBench working on the Redmi Note 9T, so it’s omitted here.)

While there's no wireless charging support here or the ability to use reverse charging, the Moto G50 does offer 15W charging, which is faster than some low-end phones. Although, weirdly, the charger it comes bundled with doesn't support it, so you'll need to buy a separate one to enjoy speedier recharges. The selfie camera is a 13MP f/2.2 lens and again, don't expect great details here. However, a beautification slider does go some way to making you feel better.

The Moto G50 has three rear cameras, encompassing one 48MP f/1.7 main camera, a 5MP f/2.4 macro camera, and a 2MP f/2.4 depth camera. There's no ultra-wide lens here and it's sorely missed. The Moto G50 has a 5,000mAh battery capacity, which coupled with its fairly efficient chipset means battery life is quite strong, and you won't find yourself having to watch the percentage dip throughout the day. In terms of brightness, the measured 431cd/m² is a little low for an IPS screen, but it’s still bright enough for comfortable use on all but the brightest of sunny days.
