Though, if those features are absolutely key, you’ll want to spend a little more on some of the other best cheap phones.

So much so that minor exclusions like NFC (this feature is available outside of the US), the non-removable back and the so-so camera performance don’t detract much from the experience or the value. Previous owners and newcomers alike will find a lot to enjoy here for the price.

How often do you see phone prices going down instead of up? If you’re strapped for cash, but still want Android Nougat (with Android Oreo still said to be on the way) software, this is on sale for around $229/£230/AU$310, which is actually a little bit cheaper than the G4 Plus. Refreshed from top to bottom (and on the inside, too), the Moto G5 Plus has redefined itself and it didn't even have to. In that regard, it isn’t a far cry from the previous year's value-packed Moto G4 Plus - not that you’d even know the two were related by looking at them. But the G5 Plus remains cheaper and has a fingerprint sensor, generous heaps of internal storage with microSD support, Google Assistant, fast charging, GSM and CDMA compatibility. Speaking of features, the new Moto G5 Plus has them in spades, even with the Moto G6 Plus and Moto G6 have launched. While flagship makers battle for the top spot with small bezels and pixel-perfect cameras, Motorola has been winning a more quiet, but equally important fight: to offer desired features in a phone without costing too much.
