The Moto G Stylus (2021) has a 6.8” 1080p display – the biggest on a G-series yet. And it comes with a “push-pen” stylus, which has a clicky top that helps you pull it out of its sheath inside the phone. A Snapdragon 678 was tapped to run Android 10 and the Stylus-specific custom software like the Moto Note app. The stylus can also be used to sketch something or to highlight text and quickly copy it to another app.
The phone has only one memory
configuration, 4GB of RAM and 128GB storage (with a microSD slot for those who
need more). The battery has 4,000 mAh capacity and supports only the standard
10W for charging.
The camera is similar to the Ace (also
announced today) with a 48MP main sensor (f/1.7, 0.8 µm), plus an 8MP ultrawide
(118°), 2MP macro and an additional 2MP depth sensor. The selfie cam is a 16MP
module with pixel binning support. The main cam can record 4K 30 fps videos,
the ultra wide and selfie cams can shoot hyperlapses.
The build of the phone is plastic and it
features a water repellent design (no IP rating given). The fingerprint reader
moves to the side, the 3.5 mm headphone jack stays put. The Moto G Stylus can
be ordered today for US$ 300, though note that the first units will start shipping
on January 13. The phone is on Amazon US.
