TL;DR
- The Motorola Moto G Power 5G (2023) is here with 5G support for the first time.
- Other than the addition of 5G, the phone is much like previous devices in the line.
- You can buy it in the US for $299 starting on April 13.
The Moto G line is a great place to start when you need an inexpensive Android phone. Motorola fills the Moto G family with budget-minded devices that still offer a few core features you need.
The Motorola Moto G Power 5G (2023) continues this trend. It offers the usual highlight of the G Power line: a huge 5,000mAh battery. But, for the first time ever, it also has 5G support, a nice perk.
Elsewhere, you’re getting a slight bump in screen quality with a 120Hz refresh rate. Previous models peaked at 90Hz. However, you won’t find too many other advantages over previous models here. Check the specs table below for all the details and continue on for pricing and availability.

Pricing and availability
The Motorola Moto G Power 5G (2023) comes in two colorways: Mineral Black and Pearl White. Either way, the 128GB model will start at $299. You can buy it in the United States starting on April 13, 2023.
However, at some point in the future, you’ll be able to get one from certain US carriers, including Metro by T-Mobile, Spectrum Mobile, and Xfinity Mobile. Motorola didn’t have a specific rollout timeline for these releases, unfortunately.
Our friends up north in Canada can grab the phone “in the coming months.” Stay tuned!
