Moto G42 Expert Review Summary

In it’s segment, this phone is among

Best Phones Under Rs. 18,000

Expert Rating:

7.0/10

by Ashish Kumar , 06 Jul 2022

Assistant Editor with 6+ years in tech, reviewed 50+ gadgets.

Verdict

The Moto G42 won't woo you away with its performance chops. That said, the handset flaunts a beautiful screen which touts good colour calibration for the price. Add to that the handset's long-lasting battery life, great stereo speakers, clean software, decent cameras, and fast charging tech, and the G42 makes for a decent buy.

Pros

Good display
Long battery life
Capable stereo speakers
Clean software

Cons

Screen lacks high refresh rate
Staid design
Low light photography could have been better
