I bought the G Stylus 5g 2023 in early December last year from Best Buy for $250. It was the version with 256gb of storage and 6gb of ram. Best smart phone I've ever owned, since my first Motorola Defy XT back in 2012. So far it hasn't ever crashed, and is really fast moving in and out of apps, as well as navigating apps. I don't game at all, so no comments there. The best thing about the 2023 model for my use is the fingerprint sensor. It has been flawless so far, much more responsive than my previous phone, a 2020 Moto G Power. I had to retrain that phone every few weeks, because it wouldn't recognize my prints anymore. With the G Stylus, I trained it once last December, and it hasn't forgotten ANY fingerprints since then. I do wish it had wireless charging, and looks like the 2024 version will get it. But unless something bad happens to my current G Stylus 5g, I'll probably keep it for at least 2 or 3 years before upgrading.
