Motorola has unveiled two new additions to its G-series lineup, the Moto G04 and Moto G24, catering to the budget-conscious smartphone seekers. Both devices boast a slew of impressive features, including a smooth 90Hz refresh rate display, a long-lasting 5,000mAh battery, and immersive entertainment with dual stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos support. Let’s delve deeper into the specifications and offerings of these exciting new smartphones.
Display and Design: Moto G04 and Moto G24
Both the Moto G04 and Moto G24 flaunt a modern and captivating design language. They embrace a hole-punch display, strategically positioned at the top center, maximizing screen real estate for an uninterrupted viewing experience. The display measures a generous 6.6 inches and boasts an HD+ resolution (720 x 1,600 pixels), ensuring vibrant visuals and sharp details. But where these displays truly shine is their silky-smooth 90Hz refresh rate. This translates to incredibly fluid animations, seamless scrolling, and an overall more responsive user experience, especially noticeable in fast-paced games and applications.
Performance and Storage:
Under the hood, the Moto G24 packs a punch with the MediaTek Helio G85 octa-core processor, known for its reliable performance and efficient power management. This chipset is ably supported by 4GB of RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and handling everyday task with ease. For those who demand a little more oomph, the G24 offers virtual RAM expansion technology, allowing up to an additional 8GB of RAM to be carved out from unused storage, further enhancing its capabilities.
The Moto G04, on the other hand, takes a slightly more modest approach with the UniSoC T606 SoC, also paired with 4GB of RAM. This processor is well-suited for everyday tasks and casual gaming, providing a balanced performance experience. Similar to the G24, the G04 boasts virtual RAM expansion technology, offering up to 8GB of additional RAM for those who need it.
Storage-wise, the Moto G24 comes equipped with 128GB of eMMC 5.1 onboard storage, providing ample space for your apps, photos, videos, and other files. If you crave even more storage, you can leverage the microSD card slot for expansion up to a whopping 1TB. The Moto G04 offers 64GB of onboard storage, which can also be expanded via microSD card up to 1TB, catering to users with lighter storage requirements.

The primary sensor boasts a resolution of 50 megapixels with Quad Pixel technology, promising detailed and high-quality captures. Accompanying this is a 2-megapixel macro sensor, perfect for capturing close-up shots with stunning clarity. On the front, an 8-megapixel camera takes care of selfies and video calls, ensuring you always look your best.
The Moto G04 adopts a simpler approach with its single 16-megapixel rear camera. This sensor is still capable of capturing decent photos in most lighting conditions, making it suitable for everyday use. The 5-megapixel front camera on the G04 caters to selfies and video calls, providing a reliable solution for staying connected.

The Moto G24 takes things a step further with its 15W TurboPower charging support, allowing you to quickly top up the battery when needed. The Moto G04, although lacking fast charging, still offers a respectable 10W charging capability.
In terms of connectivity, both devices cover all the essentials.
