Motorola has announced the first 2025 updates to its Moto G line of budget phones, with new versions of the Moto G and Moto G Power.
The latter is the standout, with an IP69 water-resistance rating that surpasses most flagship phones despite a price tag of just $299.99.
As if IP69 wasn’t enough, the phone is also 1P68 rated, meaning it’s rated for both submersion in water and exposure to high-pressure water jets and steam, in addition to full protection from dust.
The phone has also passed MIL-STD-81H certification for exposure to harsh environments and has a 5000mAh battery and wireless charging.
We didn’t get a chance to get our hands on the device, but according to the spec sheets and other sources like The Verge:
“The 2025 Moto G Power is surprisingly svelte for how tough it is, but it’s by no means a small phone — the 6.8-inch LCD display, covered in Gorilla Glass 5, makes this about the same size as Samsung’s Galaxy S24 Ultra.”
The unlocked Moto G will be available online at Motorola.com, Amazon, and Best Buy starting January 30th, with the Power following on February 6th.
