Motorola is known for being the earliest producer of feature phones back in the day alongside Nokia. The company never really made a full-blown transition to smartphones the likes of Samsung or Apple did, but they still managed to make a niche for themselves with innovative design. Recently, the company launched Motorola Moto G62 5G on June 28th, 2022 globally. The main feature obviously is the 5G connectivity at an insanely low price. But is there more to the device other than the 5G? Let’s find out. Key Features of Motorola Moto G62 5G Design and Build Quality The design of the Moto G62 isn’t really much different from other existing G series devices from Motorola. In fact, without the branding, it's hard to tell whether it’s a G52, G62, or G82 device. The device itself is fairly nominal. Motorola is known for its elongated aspect ratio and the same holds for the Moto G62 as well.

But the large chins on both the top and bottom, even with the punch hole camera, is a letdown. The frame and the back of the device are made from plastic as usual. The back has a frosted finish which gives it a matte glass look. You won’t really be able to tell the difference unless you hold it in hand. The odd pill-shaped camera housing is also present which almost became a signature style of Motorola at this point. The power and volume buttons are positioned on the right with the power button doubling as a fingerprint sensor. Read ASUS ZENFONE 9 Review: Does this mini powerhouse offer value-for-money? Type C charging port, bottom-firing speaker, and the precious headphone jack, all stay on the G62 making it a comprehensive all-around package. The Display The problem with low to mid-range devices is the cost cut on the display. Phone manufacturers often don’t heed the idea that the display is the primary contact point for a device and it might very well be the make-or-break factor in a highly competitive low to mid-range segment. While many companies get it wrong, Motorola did a significantly better job with the display panel.

The high refresh rate with a higher resolution makes for an impressive viewing experience if you consider the price it comes at. The panel won’t compete with the likes of AMOLED, rather it makes a space for itself with a mix of new and old tech. The Camera The camera is a strong marketing tool for the G series by Motorola and the Moto G62 5G is no different. The triple camera sensor in the back has a 50 MP main sensor, an 8 MP wide angle, and a 2 MP macro shooter. Read Tecno Spark 9T Review: Technical Details and Key Specifications The macro shooter might not be very useful but the main and the wide-angle sensors get the job done. The main sensor uses pixel binding technology to turn the 50 MP images into 12 MP ones. Though there’s a bit of image quality loss, it still looks sharp and crisp under direct sunlight. The dynamic range and the portrait mode work great in well-lit environments. But things start to go a bit sideways in indoors or dim environments. The color reproduction isn’t the best in artificial lights and the camera suffers from over-exposure, or under-exposure issues at times. But the problem can be greatly reduced with night vision which is Motorola’s version of night mode. The front camera is a 16 MP generic shooter. It again gets the job done with minimal bells and whistles. Videography on the Moto G62 is 1080P at either 30 0r 60 fps. But the lack of a dedicated EIS or OIS reduces the quality.

Motorola launched the Moto G62 globally with Snapdragon 480+ 5G based on the 8 Nm architecture. But the Indian variant of the device comes with Snapdragon 695 with 6 GB or 8 GB RAM options. But the global variant only has 4 GB RAM coupled with a 128 GB storage option. This is an interesting play from Motorola to launch the same device with different internals in two different markets. In this review, we take a look at the global variant. The 480+ processor has an octa-core 2 2.2 GHz Kryo 460 and 6 1.8 GHz Kryo 460 design. This is more like a souped-up version of the entry-level Qualcomm processor. Read Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Review: The Budget Samsung for 2022 In day-to-day use, you will not notice the low power. The almost-stock UI coupled with a high refresh rate display makes for a smooth user experience. But things start to look a bit gloom once you try processor-intensive tasks like gaming. There are regular frame drops here and there on games like PUBG and Genshin Impact. This would suggest that the device is best suited for light and casual use. Users will be getting Android 12 out of the box with a promised update to Android 13 sometime next year.

This size is enough for about 8 to 10 hours of usage. On top of that users will also be getting a 15 W fast charger out of the box. 15 W isn’t up with the fast-charging standards of 2022, but it's still better than nothing. Price of Motorola Moto G62 5G The global price of the Motorola Moto G62 5G is 263 dollars or roughly 24,983 BDT (1 USD = 94.99 BDT). However, the device is not officially available in Bangladesh as of yet. The official price of Motorola Moto G62 5G in Bangladesh may vary due to tax and other issues. Final Words The Motorola Moto G62 5G tries to combine old and new in a low to mid-range price level. The global variant seems to be powered by a lower processor but it still delivers on the experience. The Indian variant does significantly well compared to the global one. Regardless of the variant available, the G62 5G will make for an impressive smartphone experience, the likes of which are seen from Motorola consistently over the years.
