Motorola G100 and G50 is now available in European and Latin American markets

Motorola has uncovered the G100 and G50, two midrange phones headed first for European and Latin American markets. Both offer displays with fast 90Hz refresh rates for smooth scrolling and animations, 5G connectivity, and they embrace Motorola’s ethos of “more battery, better” with immense 5,000mAh cells.

Moto G100 and Moto G50 have launched in European markets as the most recent cell phones to join Motorola’s growing portfolio. The Moto G100 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC and has a quad-camera setup at the back with a 64-megapixel main camera.

Moto G100 has a 3.5mm audio jack and dual front cameras for selfies and video calling. Moto G50, on the other hand, is powered by the Snapdragon 480 SoC and has a triple back camera setup. Both the phones pack a 5,000mAh battery.

The higher-end G100 is ready to rival any semblance of the Google Pixel 4A 5G with a Snapdragon 870 5G processor, 8GB of RAM, and a dual wide/ultrawide selfie camera for €499.99 (~$587).

The G50, on the other hand, resembles a good, spending budget-friendlier gadget — its faster refresh rate, 6.5-inch screen is still somewhat uncommon at its €229.99 (~$269) cost.

Motorola is extending its line of mid-range Moto G series cell phones with two new phones. The Moto G100 packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor, making it the first Moto G phone with an 800 series chip. It likewise has 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a 5,000 mAh battery, and a 90 Hz display.

While those are really decent specs for a mid-range phone, the Motorola G100 is the most costly G series phone to date, with a beginning cost of €500. Yet, Motorola is likewise presenting a new Moto G50 that begins at €230 which actually has a 90Hz display and 5,000 mAh battery.

The Motorola G100 offers a huge 6.7-inch 1080p LCD. Its 8GB of RAM is joined by 128GB of storage, which is expandable because of a MicroSD card slot. Backing for sub-6GHz 5G frequencies is incorporated, as is Wi-Fi 6.

The G100 features a main 64-megapixel camera (lacking optical stabilization, unfortunately) supplemented by a 16-megapixel ultrawide that doubles as a macro camera, complete with an built-in ring flash.

Two selfie cameras are offered — a methodology Google took with the Pixel 3 and thusly deserted — with a 16-megapixel wide and 8-megapixel ultrawide. Up to 6K/30p video recording is conceivable with the main back camera, and the back ultrawide can capture 4K/30p clips — something found on numerous flagships yet isn’t too common in this upper midrange class.

The Motorola G50 utilizes a marginally more modest (yet, you know, large) 6.5-inch 720p screen. It incorporates a more slow Snapdragon 480 chipset with 4GB of RAM and 64 or 128GB of storage (fortunately, there’s a microSD slot here, as well).

The back triple-camera array is generally a 48-megapixel standard wide camera; the going with 5-megapixel macro and 2-megapixel depth sensor don’t offer a whole lot of practical use. On the off chance that none of that sounds excessively convincing, consider that the European pricing likens to well under $300. On the off chance that the gadget was to make it to the US, it would be exceptional to compete at that cost.

There’s no affirmation a few seconds ago if and when these phones will be sold in the US, yet we’ll be watching out for them. Meanwhile, the G100 goes on sale in European and Latin American markets today, while the G50 will show up in “selected European markets” in the coming weeks.

Something other that sets the Moto G100 separated is that it supports Motorola’s new “Ready For” platform which allows you to associate the phone to an external display to watch videos, play games, or use your Android apps in a desktop-like view.

It’s an feature that Motorola initially presented in the United States a week ago for the Motorola Edge+ cell phone on Verizon, yet now it’s advancing toward an extra gadget and extra markets… yet not to cheaper phones like the Moto G50 apparently.

The Moto G100 is accessible in select nations in Europe and Latin America beginning today, while the Moto G50 is gone to Europe in the coming weeks. Also, if the Moto G100 looks recognizable, incidentally, that is likely because it appears to be almost indistinguishable from the Motorola Edge S which launched in China in January. The only difference is that the Chinese model has 6GB of RAM and a lower beginning cost of around $310 in that country.
