The Moto G Stylus 5G (2022) is the follow up to last year's G Stylus, and it fixes some of our most glaring issues with the phone, but also raises its pricing and puts itself in a weird position between some really able-bodied rivals!
In this price range, plastic phones are still a common sight, with just a few glass and metal juggernauts breaking the trend. And yes, while plastic isn't regarded that highly by most consumers and reviewers alike, it should generally be expected in the sub $500 range.
Sure, the bezels are asymmetrical and on the thick side, but that's to be expected in this price range. One downside of the specific plastic used on the Moto G Stylus is that it's a smudge magnet and easily gets dirty. You might want to invest in a case, not just for protection reasons, but also to minimize oily fingerprint smudges.
There's a fingerprint sensor on the Moto G Stylus, and it's not embedded in the screen but on the power button to the side. Overall, we are perfectly happy with its placement and overall responsiveness, as is super-quick to react and unlock the phone. Usually, unlocking the phone and authenticating was done in one smooth motion. No, we didn't miss an in-display fingerprint sensor one bit.
Just like on Samsung's S Pen phones, you take this one out by clicking its top button and taking it out with your fingertips quickly and easily. The stylus itself is quite comfortable to use despite its super thin profile. Have in mind that pressure sensitivity like on Samsung's stylus-wielding phones isn't available on this phone.
