Motorola Moto G10

Last year we saw a vast number of budget smartphones from different brands and among them, Motorola maintained its reputation by launching some of the sophisticated devices in this section. Now for this year, Motorola was rumoured to be working on multiple affordable smartphones and finally they have unwrapped a new device called the Moto G10 for this year with a pocket-friendly price tag. Now what has been offered this time is interesting to see. So,  let us dive deep into the Moto G10 for getting better insights.

Motorola G10 Price in India

In terms of pricing and availability, the Motorola G10 is available in two configurations. One with 4GB RAM and 128GB internal storage, and another with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage. In India, the Moto G10 is expected to cost Rs. 13,290. This is the estimated pricing for the Moto G10 basic edition, which will be available in Aurora Grey and Iridescent Pearl colours and has 4 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage.

Getting to the main point, Moto G10 is a bulky device with 200grams of weight and 9.19mm thickness. You won’t be able to hold it for longer durations single-handedly. However, you’re being provided with an IP52 water repellent design.  

From the front, there is this same old v-shape notch design with a prominent chin at the bottom and small bezels around the edges. The rear panel features a textured finish and there is a rectangular shaped camera module along with a fingerprint sensor with Motorola branding engraved on it. There is a volume rocker on the right side along with the power button and google assistant button. The top side features a 3.5mm headphone jack, while there is a Type-C charging port at the bottom.

There is nothing attractive here in Moto G10, just a 6.5-inch normal refresh rate display, featuring HD+ resolution and an aspect ratio of 20:9. With an 85% Active Area-touch panel and 720P resolution, you can’t expect higher visuals here. Just a normal entry-level smartphone display. 

For the given price point, the performance is decent enough with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 460 chipset and Adreno 610 GPU. You can enjoy gaming on low to medium graphics settings, but there will be heating issues that can’t be avoided. For storage, you are being provided with 4GB RAM and 64/128GB internal storage options for seamless multitasking and storing a lot of apps. 

Moto G10 runs on Android 11, which is really awesome since it provides the best interface. Also, there are all the sensors available including the proximity, Ambient Light Sensor and the Moto G10 supports 4G networks. 

Let’s discuss the rear camera first where you’ve got a 48MP quad-camera setup. There are only two sensors worth talking about and those include the 48MP main sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide lens. These two are going to be there to assist you in capturing good shots both in low and good lighting conditions. You’re also provided with some extra features like Slow Motion, EIS, Time Lapse etc and there is support for FHD video recording at 30fps. 

While the front 8MP selfie camera is not going to be that great. Although the selfies won’t be that bad, still the details will be somewhat lagging behind. But given the point, I’ll say, the camera is decent. 

There is a large 5000 mAh battery that is capable of providing two days battery backup. However the only complaint here is, what is the fun of having such a huge battery, when it takes hours to refill it? Although there is support for 10W charging, it should have been more like 18 fast charging support. For connecting the charger, there is a Type-C charging port available installed at the bottom of the device. 

Given the total features packed within the Motorola Moto G10, it’s a good device to invest in at a reasonable price. A long-lasting battery, together with excellent cameras, RAM, and ensures smooth operation. The pocket-friendly device also has an Android v11 operating system and a fingerprint sensor on the back. However, if you can’t compromise with the display quality, then there are other options available in the market.
