Motorola's smartphones are renowned for offering exceptional value for money, and the Moto G Stylus 5G 2024 is no different. As its name suggests, the company's latest mid-ranger comes with an integrated stylus, something you'd usually find in a top-of-the-line smartphone costing over three times as much. And that's just the beginning!

When Rajat got his first Personal Computer—a Pentium III machine with 128MB of RAM and a 56kbps dial-up modem—back in 2001, he had little idea it would mark the beginning of a lifelong love affair with gadgets. That fascination, combined with a penchant for writing and editing, ultimately led to him becoming a technology journalist. Some of his other interests include Photography, Hand Lettering, and Digital Typography. Rajat is also somewhat obsessed with wrist-worn timepieces and appreciates a Casio just as much as a Jaeger-LeCoultre.
