The Moto G line has dominated the budget for a few years, but companies like Nokia are getting into that territory with some very attractive and extremely affordable Android phones. In 2019, Motorola sought to win back the market by revamping the G series, which brought us the Moto G7, Moto G7 Power, and Moto G7 Play.
You might be wondering what makes these phones different from each other. There are some big differences, so we’ve contrasted them here and picked winners across several categories to help you decide which one is best for you. Fire up your Moto because it’s time for the G Series showdown.

Performance, battery life and charging
motorbike g7” style=”aspect-ratio: 1.5105740181269″/>Whichever Moto G7 you choose, you’ll find Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 632 processor inside. It offers solid performance and is capable of run most apps and games smoothly The Moto G7 is the most capable multitasker with 4GB of RAM on the inside, compared to 3GB on the Power and just 2GB on the Play.You’ll find that the extra RAM makes things smoother and a faster experience.The G7 also has double the internal storage of its siblings, from 64GB to 32GB, though all three have MicroSD card slots for storage expansion.
Both the G7 and G7 Play have a 3000mAh internal battery, but the Play definitely packs more stamina and lasts an hour longer on our battery test, probably because the G7’s larger, higher-resolution display requires more power. The clear winner in the battery department is the aptly named G7 Power, which packs a 5000 mAh battery. That’s enough power to last you two days between charges. Speaking of charging, the G7 features 15W TurboPower support, which will give you 9 hours of use after 15 minutes of charging. The G7 Power also supports 15W TurboPower, but the G7 Play’s charging maxes out at 10W, so it takes two hours to fully charge.
This is a difficult category to call, although we can easily relegate the G7 Play to last place due to limited RAM and slower loading. If battery life is important to you, then the G7 Power is the one to go for, but we’d go for the G7’s extra RAM and storage.
Winner: Moto G7
design and durability
We can see popular design trends trickling down to the budget segment with the G-series. The Moto G7 sports a teardrop notch on the display, while the G7 Power and G7 Play sport notches. All three have bezels at the bottom of the front. The G7 is clearly the flagship here, sporting a curved Gorilla Glass 3 back. All three have a fingerprint sensor located in the M logo, below the distinctive round camera module on the back. The G7 Power is thicker and has plastic with polymer glass on the back. The G7 Play has a more transparent plastic textured finish on the back that helps with grip, and it’s by far the smallest and lightest of the bunch.
Most phones now have some level of water resistance, and while the G series doesn’t have an IP rating, they all have the P2i’s water-repellent coating. You don’t want to submerge them, but rain and spills are probably not a cause for concern. The G7 might be a bit more prone to damage with that glass back, but there’s not much to share in terms of durability.
Winner: Moto G7

The G7 and G7 Power both have a 6.2-inch screen compared to the G7 Play’s 5.7-inch screen. They’re all LCD screens, but two things elevate the Moto G7’s display above its siblings: It has a much higher resolution of 2270 x 1080 pixels, and it has a teardrop notch. Both the G7 Play and Power have larger notches at the top of the screen and relatively low resolutions. That means everything will look better on the G7. In terms of pixels per inch, the G7 has 403, compared to 271 for the Power and 294 for the Play.
Winner: Moto G7
Camera

Here’s another clear win for the Moto G7, which features a dual-lens main camera that combines a 12-megapixel sensor with an f/1.8 aperture with a secondary 5-megapixel depth sensor, allowing you to capture great photos. bokeh with your subject in sharp focus. relief and blurred background. The G7 Power has a single 12-megapixel sensor with f/2.0 aperture and the Play has a single 13-megapixel sensor with f/2.0 aperture. Larger apertures, indicated by lower numbers, let in more light, so the G7’s camera performs noticeably better in low-light situations, though it’s still not good for working in the dark.
The G7 has a feature unique to the other two: Auto Smile Capture, which takes a photo as soon as a smile is detected. But the really tantalizing bonus is the portrait mode powered by that dual-lens camera. It can take some nice photos of people, while the portrait mode on the G7 Power and G7 Play is disastrous.
All three phones have High Resolution Zoom, which enhances the details of photos after digital zoom. They can also shoot 4K video, which is a rarity on budget phones, and there’s an option to create cool time-lapse videos or shoot in slow motion.
All G7 variants have the same 8-megapixel front-facing camera, which is great for selfies and video calls.
Winner: Moto G7
software and updates
Simon Hill/Digital Trends
All three phones support Android 10, but Motorola’s Android 11 upgrade plans show that sadly none of them will get the latest operating system. This reduces the longevity of all three phones, although Android 10 is still a great operating system, so you’ll still be able to take advantage of it. You’ll also find the usual assortment of Motorola gesture shortcuts, including one-button navigation and double-jump for the flashlight. There are a few other tricks, including the ability to keep the screen on if you’re looking at it. Only the Moto G7 has Moto Voice for hands-free operation while riding.
The amount and type of bloatware you’ll find will likely depend on where you shop. The Moto G range has traditionally been relatively free of bloatware, but Outlook was introduced as the default email app last year, and if you buy from a carrier, they’re likely to load a bunch of apps you don’t want. The software experience is identical with the exception of Moto Voice, making it a very narrow win for the G7.
Winner: Moto G7
Special features
Budget phones generally don’t have any special features or accessories, and that’s certainly the case here. The dual-lens camera on the G7 stands out as the biggest difference, but the G7 Power’s added durability should certainly tempt some people. It outperformed every other phone we tested on the battery test, streaming a YouTube video for almost 14 hours, compared to 9 hours and 21 minutes for the G7 Play and 8 hours and 27 minutes for the G7. Aside from its more compact size, there’s nothing special about the G7 Play.
Winners: Moto G7 Power
Price and availability
We’re not surprised that the Moto G7 is the most expensive in the range at $299, although we recently saw Motorola drop it to $199. The Moto G7 Power officially retailed for $249, though Motorola has now discontinued it (in favor of the Moto G7 Plus, now priced at $119). Meanwhile, the Moto G7 Play launched at $199 but has been brought down to $130. You can buy them unlocked directly from Motorola (except for the G7 Power) or from retailers like Best Buy, B&H Photo, and Amazon. You’ll also find the G7 on Google Fi, Republic Wireless, and Ting.
This triad will work pretty well with all major providers, but we recommend purchasing the unlocked versions to keep bloatware to a minimum.
Overall Winner: Moto G7
This is one of the sharpest and most direct comparisons we have ever had the privilege of making. The Moto G7 is undoubtedly the most attractive of the three; it has more RAM and storage space, a clearer screen, and a superior camera, but the downside is that it’s also more expensive. The only domain in which it is beaten is battery life, which is clearly the G7 Power’s specialty. If you get irritated easily when you are always running low on battery then the G7 Power is the choice for you. If you’re working on a tighter budget, then the G7 Play will give you the best mix of performance, battery life, and camera quality for your bang for the buck. Keep in mind that it’s $100 less than the G7.
If you’re okay with a small budget bump, we think the Moto G7 is the better fit. It is true that the other two are attractive and will accommodate some people better.
