Moto G31

The Moto G31 improves in several areas on the G30, including a better screen resolution AMOLED panel, that along with the clean software experience makes this a great affordable phone. The cameras are still so-so at best, though, but while rivals such as Realme and Redmi might read better on paper, you can't shake Motorola for the user experience on offer.

The Moto G31 isn't the fastest or most modern of cheap phones, and the lack of 5G holds it back, but it feels comfy to hold and offers a long battery life for not much money at all.

The Moto G31 is the company's attempt at bringing AMOLED display to affordable devices. And while the phone does check quite a few boxes, it does miss on a few key parameters making it lag behind the competition
