“If you want a smartphone with a high resolution display and the best sound quality, choose the Moto G72,” says Motorola’s European landing page, while India says, “For every color in your life. ”You can get one.
In fact, the Moto G72’s display is one of its key selling points. It’s a 6.6-inch 120Hz OLED that supports 1 billion colors, and it’s 1080p, so it’s “high definition.” As for sound, it has stereo speakers and a headphone jack. , and FM radio, so there are possibilities in that aspect as well.
There is one number that stands out on the spec sheet and that is in the area of weight. The Moto G72 is extremely light at just 166g and has a 5,000mAh battery. Motorola promises him more than two days of battery life (according to lab tests). That proves to be true, especially with the relatively modest Mediatek Helio G99 chipset, which lacks 5G capabilities.
In the camera department, we’re looking at a 2+1 rear setup with a 108MP headliner, 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro, while selfies are handled by a 16MP punch hole unit. What you’re missing out on is 4K video recording, but it’s becoming the new normal for these budget-conscious devices these days.

Motorola Moto G72 Unboxing
The Moto G72 ships in the same navy box as all recent G-series Motos. The recycled brown box is reserved for the Edge series. Content is fairly standard.
The phone already comes in a clear soft silicone case – not flashy, but still functional. Beneath that is a 33W TurboPower adapter and a USB-A-to-C cable for charging and data transfer.
