Motorola recently launched the successor to their highly popular Moto G23 series from last year. The new Moto G24 Power was officially launched on 7th February in India with subsequent global release. The G24 Power carries a lot of the DNA from the G23 with two key improvements that are sure to make it a hot deal in the budget-friendly segment. What are they? Let’s find out.  Key Specs of the Motorola Moto G24 Power  Design and Build Quality  As expected from a budget-friendly smartphone, the Moto G24 Power is an all-plastic device. Even then, Motorola has tweaked the design a bit to give it a more premium look. The rectangular camera housing now merges with the back creating a flush design. The overall matte frosted finish also brings a minimal look to the G24 Power.  The dimension of the smartphone comes in at 163.49 mm by 74.53 mm by 8.99 mm with 197 g weight. Surprisingly, Motorola was able to keep the weight under 200 g considering the device boasts a 6000 mAh battery.  Read more: Haylou RS5 Review: A Budget-friendly Smartwatch with Health Monitoring Features The usual ports and buttons are all present on the G24 Power. The power button itself now doubles as the fingerprint scanner. The 3.5 mm headphone jack has been placed on the top with a subtle Dolby Atmos branding beside it. The micro SDXC slot is present, this time securing a dedicated slot.  The G24 power comes in two colorways, Glacier Blue and Ink Blue. There’s no official rating but Motorola claims to have a “water-repellent design” on the G24 Power. However, users would be better off avoiding any water contact altogether.  The Display  The display on the Moto G24 Power is a 6.56-inch IPS LCD panel with a 90 Hz refresh rate and 537 nits of peak brightness. The resolution of the panel comes in at 720 x 1612 pixels with 269 ppi at 20:9 aspect ratio.  There’s a sizable bottom chin on the G24 Power which is understandable given the price point it comes at. It brings the overall screen-to-body ratio at 84.9% which is still better than most alternatives.  Read more: vivo V30 Lite Review: Know the Pros and Cons As for the performance, the G24 Power doesn’t let down. It has good contrast and viewing angles and the panel was able to consistently push 90 Hz in intensive use and general browsing. It's on par with its competitors like the Redmi 13C and the POCO C65. The only gripe is that the G23 had a Panda Glass protection which is unavailable on the G24 Power.  As an HD+ panel, the display won’t blow you away in any way, but considering its budget-friendly price tag, the room to complain is next to none.  The Camera  There’s a dual camera setup on the Moto G24 Power. The main sensor is a 50 MP f/1.8 aperture and 0.64µm module with quad pixel technology. The secondary sensor is a 2 MP f/2.4 macro shooter.  The front camera is a 16 MP f/2.5 sensor for the Indian version. Global users will be getting an 8 MP f/2.0 front shooter.  Read more: WGP 10400mAh Mini UPS Review: Revamp of a Reliable Backup Device The camera performance on the G24 Power has been exceptionally good for its price. The quad-pixel technology brings better details, sharpness, and dynamic range to the images. The post-processing creates 12.5 MP images using the pixel binning method. Images taken in the daylight had a good contrast and exposure ratio. The outcome was similar on artificial light as well with slight overall softness in the pictures. The front camera was also able to capture great details in both outdoor and indoor lighting. In comparison to the other 50 MP sensors of the Redmi 13C, POCO C65, and Galaxy A15, the G24 Power easily comes out on top.  The videography on the G24 Power is limited to 1080P at 30 fps. It produces generic results with stabilization and exposure issues.  Processor and Performance  The processor on the G24 Power is MediaTek Helio G85 based on 12 Nm architecture. It has a chip design of 2x2.0 GHz Cortex-A75 & 6x1.7 GHz Cortex-A55 with Mali-G52 MC2 GPU.  The G85 is a basic entry-level processor at best. Coupled with the eMMC 5.1 slow storage type, the overall performance is slightly hampered even by the entry-level phone standards. The Antutu score comes in at 265219 with the Geekbench single-core score of 413 and a multi-core score of 1332.  Read more: realme P1 5G Review: New Mid-Range Line-up 3D titles like PUBG and Genshin Impact are barely playable on the G24 Power. The device also tends to heat up pretty fast in extensive use. There’s an option to use up to 8 GB of virtual RAM on the G24 Power. However, the slow storage type negates the overall performance index of the device. In terms of comparison, the G85 on the G24 Power performs on par with the G85 of Redmi 13C, POCO C65, and even last year’s G23.  Software  The G24 Power is running on a custom skin by Motorola based on Android 14. The best thing about the skin is that it’s near-stock in UI. There’s also minimal bloatware which adds to the overall experience.  The G24 Power is expected to get another major OS update with up to 3 years of security updates.  Read more: Motorola Moto G34 Review: A Budget-friendly 5G Phone with Powerful Processor Battery and Charge Time  After the camera, the battery is another key improvement on the G24 Power. It now comes with 6000 mAh with up to 30W fast charging capabilities. The charging brick on the box supports up to 33W fast charging.  Given the high battery capacity, expect to get around 7 to 8 hours of screen time from the G24 Power.
