What's the story?

The G86 is the latest addition to Moto's long-running budget-friendly G series, aimed at people who want a dependable phone without paying flagship money. It's positioned as a step up from the usual entry-level devices, with specs that lean into the mid-range.

Its biggest talking point is the 6.67in 'pOLED' screen. With sharp 2712x1220 resolution, HDR10+ support and a 120Hz refresh rate, it offers quality that's rare at this price. Moto hasn't cut corners on the build either, with Gorilla Glass 7i and IP68/IP69 durability.
