Good point
Pros: Call quality is great on Verizon. Opening websites, Google images is actually faster than some of more expensive phones I've tried before! Action camera takes rather decent videos. In right lighting, photos come out crisp. Stylus is useful in taking quick notes. Dual speakers and headphone jack are great fratures to have and keep.
Cons: battery life for a 4000 mah phone is rather disappointing even for first day use. Roughly 5 hours of screen on time. Moto display, where you wave your hand to turn on screen is absent. This was one useful feature from Moto. Instead you get one tap checking. Last but not least is pure Android issue. Many Android phones allow you to control notification volume separately. Unfortunately, Moto follows Google Pixel's pure form and removes this feature. You'll have to silence ringer or media volume to silence your texts which seems like a huge step backwards.
Conclusion: overall, this is a solid device for its price. With only a battery letdown being a clear issue, the G Stylus can be a great daily device for anyone who doesn't wanna spend $500-$1000+ on a phone.
