It's been the same price at Best Buy for about a month now, and if you add a $26 Visible SIM to the purchase, that knocks off $50 from the price of the phone.

The Moto G Power 5G 2024 is a budget unlocked phone that stands out for its feature set and solid everyday speed. It includes wireless charging, a microSD card slot, a headphone jack, NFC, eSIM and physical SIM support, and a quick side fingerprint reader. The 8GB of RAM and updated Android 15 keep it plenty fast for casual use, and battery life is described as good after updates. The main drawbacks are the MediaTek chip, which some find slower than newer Moto options, and reports of random button presses during calls. Case availability for the 2024 model also appears limited.

  • The 2024 model can be faster than the 2025 and 2026 Moto G Power variants.

  • The FNTCASE package can include a screen protector, and touch sensitivity can feel OK after installation.

  • The phone can feel fast after completing Android updates, including Android 15.

    Marlin1975

  • The phone can work well for very casual use like calling and light browsing over a couple years.

    Andrepartthree

  • The phone can trigger random button presses and flashlight activation during calls even when the proximity sensor works.

    spoonjab

  • A factory reset can fail to stop the random pressing and system noise behavior during calls.

    spoonjab

  • The 2024 model can have limited case availability compared with easier-to-find screen protectors for the 2024 form factor.

    Andrepartthree

  • Security-update timing can be uncertain for long-term value, especially for a 2024 device in 2026.

But, the 2025 version does support wireless Smart Connect, and the 2024 does not. I have 2 of these 2024 models, but I got them on TracFone with Fitbit watches for $80 each after tax. I wouldn't spend $130+tax on them. There are better options at that price - Like the previously mentioned Moto G Stylus 2025 from Straight Talk, which also supports wireless Smart Connect.
Can that be added back to the 2024 with the app?

You can install the app, and it probably functions to connect to PC/etc. But the Desktop Mode will not work. To screen mirror, you need both devices to be on WiFi. With the models that support wireless Smart Connect, you don't need any WiFi.

Do any of you with the Stylus model NOT use the stylus? LOL Those phones always seem so large to me and I don't need the stylus, so I think it would be in the way. Or not? Input please!
The Stylus is just a capacitive stylus, so it's not very good.


It's mainly useful with Google Circle to search.

There's also an AI thing where you can do a sketch and it converts it to an sticker you can put on texts.

Finally there's a feature where you can write out math equations in handwriting and it converts them to text and solves them.


The true benefit of the Moto G Stylus (2025) is the Snapdragon CPU / GPU (and Qualcomm cellular modem). And 1200p OLED screen.

It's literally 40-50% faster than these garbage Mediatek Dimensity CPUs

I flip between this moto phone and a iphone. The Moto actually is a nice phone for this price.

Why would anyone buy a 2024 Moto phone in 2026? I wouldn't count on many more security updates from them, if they're still even putting them out.

The g Power 2024, spec wise, is actually same/better than the 2025/2026 g Powers that sell for 2x more. The software won't be the most recent (Android 15 vs 16) but if that's not a necessity it's a pretty decent phone.

Has anyone tried returning the visible kit recently?

Edit: picked up and returned the kit right there.

I really do not love this phone. Sure it has the typical things I still want in a phone: wireless charging, SD card, headphone jack, NFC, esim and physical sims, side thumb reader that is quick. It's totally usable. But the phone gets bugs and slow sometimes switching apps and unlocking screens. My biggest gripe is when talking on the phone my face will start turning on flashlights, changing the pull down settings, and I hear all the system noises going crazy as if I'm tapping them. I'll check the phone when this is happening and the proximity sensor is working fine as the screen is still black. I've watched it do it while sitting on the car's wireless charger. I've factory reset the phone and it still does it. My wife has the same phone and had reported similar issues. I recently switched to the moto stylus 2025 on the straight talk deal and in the last 45 days, the phone is much snappier, has all the same features, and no random button pressing. Plus it is cheaper than this deal.
Sounds like user error and beyond that most people aren't making voice calls especially with the phone to their face.

Why so cheap & trying to cheat Best Buy. Would You like them to go out of business like Circuit City & so many others. Comments on here are always doing this to Home Depot when their offering some free add on or a special price, then bring back part of the purchase for a refund. Not right. Hopefully these stores put a stop to that crap.
Yes, ideally.

Mediatek processor. Yuck! Had a moto phone with this processor and I totally hated it.
Their 4G chipsets are pretty meh. Their 5G chips however are pretty decent on par with low-end SAMSUNGs and Qualcomms.
