The Moto G Stylus 5G proves that you don’t need to pay top dollar for a phone with a built-in stylus. And, thanks to a Cricket Wireless deal, you don’t even have to pay full price for this midrange Motorola phone.
Cricket is selling the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) for $229. The most recent edition of this stylus-equipped handset is available for $399 elsewhere, so you’re saving $170 on Cricket’s deal.
Cricket is owned by AT&T and uses its parent company’s towers for coverage. If you prefer a different network, Verizon-owned Visible is selling the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) for $260, which saves you $139 off the regular price.
The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) is the best model in Motorola’s G series of lower-cost phones, and the stylus is a big reason why. You can use it to jot down notes on the phone’s 6.7-inch display, and it also comes in handy for photo editing. While the stylus isn’t as advanced as the S Pen that comes with Samsung’s Galaxy S24 Ultra, you’re also not paying $1,299 for the device like you would have to with the Samsung phone.
There’s more than just an input device to the Moto G Stylus, though. We were also impressed with the brighter screen and the stylish vegan leather back panel of the phone. The Moto G Stylus 5G also lasts a long time on a charge, so you won’t have to worry about running out of battery during a note-taking session.
In addition to the discounted 2024 model, Cricket is offering the Moto G 5G (2023) for free when you open a new line with a $60/month wireless plan. We’d steer you away from that device just because Motorola only provides one Android update for its Moto G phones — our biggest criticism of this device.
