Reviewing the Motorola Moto G200 5G, one of the most powerful mid-range smartphones as we hit 2022 with a Snapdragon 888 Plus chipset stuffed inside the plastic frame. I also like the dependable camera tech, which can cope with most conditions - but is the Moto G200 5G a satisfying smartphone in every way? And is it a serious rival vs the OnePlus Nord 2, Pixel 4a/5a, Samsung A52s etc?

Well, the IPS display isn't as impressive as many of Motorola's rivals, lacking that sharp contrast and punchy colour reproduction of OLED tech. Likewise there's no stereo speaker setup or headphone jack, while Android 12 is still somewhere on the horizon.

But the Motorola G200 5G does boast a clean stock Android vibe with some worthy bonus Moto features. That camera can shoot up to 8K video (but performs best at 4K) and at night it doesn't foul its drawers either.

Gamers can certainly blaze through intensive titles, although hardcore gaming fans will want to look for proper cooling as the Moto G200 can get quite toasty.

So that's my thoughts on this Motorola smartphone, which hits some serious highs with a few negative points along the way.
