Motorola Moto G82 5G review: specs, battery & used prices

Summary

The Motorola Moto G82 5G is the 2022 OLED step of the G line, running the Snapdragon 695 in a 6.6-inch 120 Hz OLED, with a 5000 mAh battery, 30 W charging, and an IP52 body at 173 grams. Our catalog scores it 43 on everyday use, 56 on screen and 95 on compactness. A 50-megapixel stabilized main camera leads the array, and the 6/128 GB trim is tracked at about $349 new. The Motorola Moto G84 is its successor, and the Motorola Moto G72 is the 4G sibling.

Display and design

The 6.6-inch OLED refreshes at 120 Hz, scoring 56 on our screen axis: AMOLED contrast and fluid scrolling in a slim body, the display argument of this tier. IP52 sealing covers dust and dripping water, and at 173 grams the phone earns the compactness score of 95.

Performance

The Snapdragon 695 posts an everyday axis of 43 and a gaming axis of 7: fluid daily pace with 5G data, while heavy 3D titles stay out of range. Tracked trims carry 6 to 8 GB of RAM, and no software-window figure is documented for this model.

Camera

The camera axis of 19 rests on a 50-megapixel stabilized main sensor with an 8-megapixel ultrawide and a 2-megapixel auxiliary lens. OIS at this price is the camera's quiet advantage, steadying daylight and evening frames; no video specification is documented.

Battery and charging

The 5000 mAh battery scores 40 on our battery axis, a comfortable full day, and 30 W charging scores 12, a modest refill that still allows a lunch top-up. In a 173-gram IP52 body, the endurance-to-weight ratio repeats the G-series strength.

Verdict

At about $349 new for 6/128 GB, the Moto G82 5G answers a simple question: an OLED, OIS-equipped G phone at 173 grams. Screen, stabilization and weight carry the pitch; the Moto G84 brightens the formula, and the Moto G72 covers the same idea without 5G.
