Motorola Moto G53
The Motorola Moto G53 has plenty of promise for its price. There's a lovely lightweight design with a big display, a decent sized battery and a good camera spec. We have high hopes the Moto G53 will be a solid performer and a great option to choose if your budget is under £/$200. We still need to test this device in full for our final verdict but for now, things are looking good.

Das Motorola Moto G53 ist für seinen Preis sehr vielversprechend. Es hat ein schönes, leichtes Design, ein großes Display, einen anständig großen Akku und eine gute Kamera. Wir haben große Hoffnungen, dass das Moto G53 eine solide Leistung erbringt und eine gute Wahl ist, wenn Ihr Budget unter 200 € liegt. Für unser endgültiges Urteil müssen wir das Gerät noch ausgiebig testen, aber im Moment sieht es gut aus.

Motorola fans should wait a little longer until the Moto G53 is more widely available and the price has moved below the US$200 mark.
