Launched in India with a starting price of ₹10,999, Moto G45 5G is available in two RAM variants - 4GB RAM and 8GB RAM with standard 128GB Storage. We got our hands on the Brilliant Blue colour variant, but the phone is also available in two other striking colours - Viva Magenta, and Brilliant Green. So, let’s get our experience with the phone, here’s our full Moto G45 5G review.

First off, the phone’s design adds to the overall feel. The soft tactile vegan leather finish gives off this classy, elegant vibe that you’ll appreciate every time you pick it up. Plus, it’s super lightweight at just 183g, which makes it easy to carry around without feeling bulky. What we like most is the boxy body with those nicely curved corners. It's just right—not too sharp and definitely comfortable to hold. One-hand operation? Not an issue at all! The camera module is also a nice touch. It’s neatly integrated into the back panel, and there’s no annoying lens sticking out. In fact, it’s so flat that you barely notice it’s there, giving the phone a clean, sleek look. The button placement feels natural too. The build feels solid for a budget-friendly phone. It even comes with an IP52 rating, so it can handle a bit of dust and water spray without breaking a sweat. So far, it’s been a smooth experience. Moto G45 5G - Display Moto G45 5G - Display Display Size 6.5" display Display Technology LCD| 120Hz refresh rate Resolution IPS LCD HD+ (1600 x 720) | 269ppi Aspect Ratio 20:9 Screen-to-Body Ratio Active Area-Touch Panel (AA-TP): 85% While at the beginning the display didn’t seem any impressive, after using the Moto G45 5G for some time, it feels like a solid performer. The 6.5-inch screen with its almost uniform bezels feels immersive. Whether scrolling through social media or watching videos, the display is vibrant. While the HD+ resolution (1600 x 720) isn’t the sharpest out there, it’s good enough for everyday use, especially for a phone in this price range. What really stands out is the 120Hz refresh rate. It’s a nice touch that you don’t always get in this segment. And it does make a difference in the overall performance. It makes navigating through apps, swiping between screens, and even playing games feel smoother and more fluid. However, we did feel at times touch was unresponsive. We had to swipe 3 to 5 times to register commands. Anyhow, the display’s colours and brightness are good. Viewing angles too are decent and outdoor visibility holds up decently. But if you’ve ever used an OLED, you might notice that an extra "punch" is definitely missing rather noticeably. Anyhow, for what it offers, the screen does a pretty good job overall. Moto G45 5G - Performance Moto G45 5G - Performance Processor Qualcomm SD 6s Gen 3 (6 nm), Octa-core (2x2.30 GHz Cortex-A78 & 6x2.0 GHz Cortex-A55), Adreno 619 900 Mhz Operating System Android™ 14 Memory (RAM) 4GB / 8GB with RAM Boost Storage 128GB built-in |Expandable to 1TB Powered by the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 octa-core processor, the Moto G45 5G feels quick and responsive. We had the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage variant for this review and it is more than enough for regular usage. Apps open smoothly and switching between them is snappy. While we used the phone for long hours, we hardly noticed any lags or hangs. With a clock speed of up to 2.3GHz, it is actually a perfect phone for everyday tasks like browsing, streaming, and messaging. Multitasking is seamless too, thanks to the octa-core setup. We tried running a couple of apps in the background and didn’t experience any stuttering. We performed some benchmark tests on the phone and it stood strong in most. Here are some results for reference. Overall, the G45 5G is fast and reliable for daily use. Moto G45 5G - Camera Moto G45 5G - Camera Rear Main Camera 50MP sensor (Aperture f/1.8, Quad Pixel technology for 0.64µm) | PDAF + Camera 28 MP (Aperture f/2.4, Pixel Size 1.75µm) macro fixed focus Front Camera Hardware 16MP (f/2.4, 1.0µm/2.0µm Ultra Pixel) We found the camera pretty impressive for its range. The 50MP Quad Pixel camera delivers sharp and detailed photos, especially in good lighting conditions. We’ve taken some nice outdoor shots. The pictures really capture the details and colours well in good lighting. It’s one of those cameras that doesn’t need much tweaking for casual photography. What troubled us in this phone was the slow shutter speed. It takes a good 4 to 5 seconds for the camera to take the shot. This delay ruined some of the pictures we were trying to take. The 16MP selfie camera also does a solid job. It captures well-lit and clear selfies. The Night Vision performance is below par though. There was a lack of clarity in most photos that we tried to take in the night mode. Night modes photos are also a bit blurry if you fail to keep your hand in absolute steadiness. The low-light shots without processing could have been better. When it comes to video shooting, the Moto G45 5G performs decently. It captures smooth footage in good lighting. While it's not the best for low-light videos, it’s reliable enough for everyday recordings or quick clips.

Moto G45 5G - Battery Life Moto G45 5G - Battery Life Battery Size 5000mAh Charging TurboPower 20W charger After use, the Moto G45 5G battery life has been a real highlight.

We tried everything, from browsing, streaming videos, or sneaking in a bit of gaming and the battery supported throughout. At least you do not have to be constantly searching for a charger. And when it does come time to charge, the TurboPower 20W charger does a decent job. It’s not the fastest charger out there, but it gets the job done without making you wait forever. We usually got a nice battery boost in a short time. All in all, the battery and charging balance convenience and performance pretty well. Moto G45 5G Review Verdict - Should You Buy It?
