Motorola launched one of the most affordable 5G phones you can buy in Europe. For those in the US, the company promises a sub-$500 budget 5G phone this fall.<\/p>\n

There’s one quality nearly all 5G<\/a> phones have in common: They’re expensive. It will cost you at minimum $999 to buy a Motorola Edge Plus<\/a> or one of the phones from the Samsung Galaxy S20 family<\/a><\/span>. Depending on the carrier, the OnePlus 8<\/a> and LG V60<\/a><\/span> are slightly less expensive ranging from $700 up to $900 respectively. And who knows how much Apple<\/a> will charge for its heavily rumored iPhone 12<\/a><\/span>, which is expected to have 5G. So it’s a real surprise to see Motorola<\/a> launch the Moto G 5G Plus, a truly affordable 5G phone.<\/p>\n Motorola is no stranger to budget phones, having launched four new Moto phones in 2020 that cost between $150 and $300. Motorola is also no stranger to 5G. In 2018, its Moto Z3, along with a separately sold 5G Moto Mod, was the first official 5G phone. And last year, the company offered the Moto Z4<\/a> and the 5G mod for only $500 as a bundle.<\/p>\n The new Moto G 5G Plus is built from the ground up to support 5G. It will be available in Europe starting July 8 for 349 euros (with 4GB RAM and 64GB of storage) or 399 euros (with 6GB RAM and 128GB). The starting price converts to £315 or AU$565. Motorola says it’s committed to releasing a sub-$500 5G in the US in the fall, but it’s unclear whether that affordable 5G device is the Moto G 5G Plus, another version of it or an entirely new device.<\/p>\n The Moto G 5G Plus packs support for sub-6GHz 5G, so low- and midband 5G<\/a><\/span>, not the fastest millimeter-wave 5G, but it puts it in direct competition with the more expensive Samsung Galaxy S20, OnePlus 8 and still unreleased Motorola Edge. The 5G Plus also has a 6.7-inch full HD display with a 90Hz refresh rate (no word if it’s an LCD or OLED). It has NFC and packs a 5,000-mAh battery, just like the excellent Moto G Power<\/a> and Motorola Edge Plus. It has a Snapdragon 765 5G processor — the same one found in the upcoming Motorola Edge<\/span>.<\/p>\n The Moto G 5G Plus has many cameras. There are two selfie cameras on the front, nestled like a vampire bite in the display. One has a wide-angle lens, the other has an ultrawide-angle lens. On the back are three cameras. The 48-megapixel main camera uses pixel binning to create 12-megapixel photos<\/a><\/span>. There is also an 8-megapixel ultrawide-angle camera, a 5-megapixel macro camera and a depth sensor.<\/p>\n Take a closer look at the Moto G 5G Plus specs and how they compare to other 5G phones available today.<\/p>\n Tags:<\/b> Patrick Holland\n<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![\"The](\"https:\/\/cnet1.cbsistatic.com\/img\/j47g8VGF3uyGPKmhpi8Qcbs9364=\/940x0\/2020\/07\/07\/7c6743ad-225b-4c7c-8728-0f528528fe2b\/moto-g-5g-plus-cameras.jpg\")
