The Moto G55 appears to redefine expectations for budget smartphones, combining a premium design with capable hardware at an accessible price point. It’s even got the specs to match, such as a smooth 120Hz display and a robust 5000mAh battery.
The G55 could be punching well above its weight at under £200 and take on the likes of Samsung and Xiaomi, if it wasn’t for lacklustre performance and an absence of flagship camera features. It lets down what would otherwise be an excellent value budget device.
Design & Build
Eco-friendly vegan design
Headphone jack
Premium look and feel
The Moto G55 strikes a balance between modern aesthetics and practical design.
Its vegan leather back not only looks and feels premium (similar to the Edge 50 devices) but also adds grip, ensuring this device doesn’t slip from your hands easily. This material choice, combined with a solid frame, gives the device a reassuring weight and a sense of durability, making it feel more expensive than it is.
