Motorola Moto G series smartphones are some of the most affordable and well-made phones on the market. They come in 10 different models, with different features and sizes. Moto G32 is the latest edition. The phone releases on August 16 in India. Let’s see more detail in this Motorola Moto G32 review.
Key Features of Motorola Moto G32
Design
The Moto G32 resembles a generic Motorola smartphone, but the features are not bad by any means. The phone comes in two color variants Mineral Gray and Satin Silver. The frame of the Moto G32 has a unique texture that provides a firm grasp while the user can hold it with one hand.
However, with regard to one-handed usage, the phone is not very user-friendly since it is quite tall. The good thing is the phone doesn’t feel heavy despite being heavier than 184 grams.

The Moto G32 includes a microphone, USB Type-C port, a speaker grille, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack located on the bottom. It is good to see that the company still provides a headphone jack for such a budget phone, while competitors are focusing on Bluetooth only. The right side features the power button and volume rockers.
The right part of the phone contains the SIM card tray, which holds two SIM cards and a microSD card that is compatible with up to 1TB micro-SD card. Also, the Moto G32 is IP52 rated for dust and water resistance, so a few splashes of water will not affect the device.
Display
The popularity of tall screens has actually been spreading in recent years, even penetrating the lower-cost sector. The Moto G32 is not an exception to this, as it contains a 6.5-inch full-HD display that refreshes at 90Hz and features a 180Hz touch sampling rate.

It’s good news for budget devices to see many OEMs introducing high-resolution panel displays. Motorola did this with the Moto G22 a few months ago. Motorola claims that the display is safeguarded with Panda Glass 3, which contains feelings as much as Gorilla Glass 3. To the growing number of OTT viewers, Netflix accepts the Widevine L1 certification, which allows you to watch 1080p movies. Also, you can stream Amazon Prime videos in HD.
The Moto G32’s neutral and saturated settings can modify two display styles to your preference. The screen might lack some contrast compared with the saturated style, but it may boost the reds slightly. However, the contrast might not particularly expand. Viewing angles is also excellent on the Moto G32.
Motorola claims that the maximum brightness of its device is 600 nits, which allows using the phone under high sunlight.

Camera
Moto G32’s camera is quite impressive as it comes with a 50-megapixel primary camera with f/1.8 aperture. The main camera is supported by a macro sensor with f/2.4 aperture and an ultra-wide-angle camera and depth sensor with f/2.2 aperture. In addition to that, you will get a 16-megapixel front camera with an f/2.4 aperture to take selfies and videos.
The Moto G32’s quad-pixel technology basically involves pixel binning, which enables the device to capture 12.5-megapixel photos in broad daylight. Images captured during the daytime have ideal lighting quality and moderate detail.
Speakers
The Moto G32 includes a Dolby Atmos stereo speaker setup to enhance the video-watching experience. While the speakers are somewhat loud at full volume, the plastic back panel may start vibrating at full volume. It may dispel the high-end vibe and make it feel a bit cheap.

Software and Performance
The combination of an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 SoC and an Adreno 610 GPU powers the Moto G32. Unfortunately, there is only one available variation featuring 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. However, the global market may also get a 6GB 1258 GB version.
For connectivity, the set of features includes support for Bluetooth 5.2, FM radio, dual-band WiFi, and 4G LTE. In our test period, we frequently found ourselves losing WiFi connectivity while standing close to the router.
Motorola’s Moto G32 series has Android 12 on the system out of the box. Motorola continues to promise updates to Android 13 over the next three years, as well. The Moto G32 runs on My UX skin on Android 12.
