The ZuPick verdict
3.9out of 5
BuyBest at battery, weakest at camera.
The Motorola G64 5G gets the basics right and adds a few standout strengths, especially battery life, 5G support and OIS on the main camera. It is not the flashiest option, but it is a well-balanced phone for buyers who want reliability and practicality.
Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.Performance4.1
It scores about 497,000 on AnTuTu, which is a good result for this price. Combined with 8 GB RAM, UFS 2.2 storage and 5G, it should feel smooth for everyday use and hold up well for casual gaming.Camera3.5
The 50 MP main camera with OIS and autofocus is a meaningful advantage, especially for steadier photos in mixed light. Daylight shots should come out clean, but 1080p at 30 fps video keeps it from feeling especially strong overall.Display3.7
The 120 Hz display feels smooth and the 1080x2400 resolution keeps text and videos sharp. Peak brightness of 560 nits is only average outdoors, and the LCD panel is a step below the better AMOLED options in this range.Battery4.2
This is one of the phone’s strongest areas. The 6000 mAh battery and 33W charging strike a very good balance, and the tested battery life of 18h 39m points to excellent endurance for daily use.Value4.0
At ₹13999, this phone offers a strong mix of battery life, smooth performance, 5G and a stabilised main camera. It is priced well enough to feel like a smart buy rather than just a safe one.Price history

Pros & cons
What’s good
Big 6000 mAh battery
The 6000 mAh battery is a real strength at this price. It comfortably lasts a full day of heavy use and can stretch well into a second day with lighter use.
OIS main camera
The 50 MP main camera gets optical stabilisation, which is still uncommon here. It helps with steadier low-light shots and more reliable photos when your hands are moving.
Smooth everyday performance
It scores about 497,000 on AnTuTu, which is solid for this price. Daily apps, multitasking and casual gaming should feel smooth, with 5G support ready for longer-term use.
Sharp 120Hz display
The 1080x2400 screen looks sharp for text and video, and the 120 Hz refresh rate makes scrolling feel fluid. It is a nicer experience than basic HD panels in this range.
Useful extras included
Stereo speakers, a 3.5 mm headphone jack, expandable storage and splash resistance make the phone easier to live with day to day. These practical touches add to the overall appeal.
What’s not
Brightness is modest
Peak brightness of 560 nits is serviceable indoors, but outdoor visibility under harsh sunlight is only average. Rivals with brighter panels are easier to read outside.
LCD over AMOLED
The screen is sharp and smooth, but it is still an LCD panel. You do not get the deeper blacks and stronger contrast that better AMOLED rivals can offer.
Basic video recording
Video tops out at 1080p at 30 fps. That is fine for casual clips, but it feels limited next to phones in this range that offer smoother 60 fps or 4K recording.

1I'm from Tamilnadu, India. Really don't buy moto g64. I bought from Flipkart during big billion days. And Got display flickering in 3 days itself.
r/motorolaan owner
The display is great you say?? It's the worst! You rotate the phone barely two or three degrees, and you can already see the hue shift/fading.

9When i got the phone i was soo excited, my previous phone was around ₹8k and this phone seems like a BIG UPGRADE to me, everything is better for me.
r/motorolaan owner
Battery performance good , after long usage it lags occasionally. Heats up easily during Summers. Camera app very laggy. Camera quality descent for the price.
r/motorolaan owner
I'm facing the same issue with my moto g64. Hearing up during gaming is still normal but my phone heats up with normal usage.
