Motorola G57 Power 5G 8GB/128GB, 7000mAh Battery, ₹21,499

The Motorola G57 Power 5G is the sensible all-rounder of this list: a 7,000mAh battery, the efficient Snapdragon 6s Gen 4 chip, 8GB of RAM, a 50MP Sony LYT-600 camera with an 8MP ultra-wide, and stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos. The 8GB/128GB model is listed at ₹21,499 (MRP ₹21,999), and it is rated 4.2★ from nearly 1,300 buyers, the joint-best rating in our list. It ranks #3 in our Best Phones Under ₹25,000 list.

WHO IT'S FOR

This phone suits people who want long battery life without giving up a decent camera and speakers: commuters, students who stream lectures, and anyone who likes Motorola's clean, near-stock Android. It is also one of the cheapest phones in our list, so it suits buyers who want to stay closer to ₹20,000.

DESIGN AND BUILD

The G57 Power has a vegan leather back, a plastic frame and Gorilla Glass 7i on the front. Motorola lists IP64 dust and splash resistance and MIL-STD-810H military-grade testing. That means it is fine in rain and dust, but it is not waterproof. At about 210 grams it is one of the heavier phones here, which is the price of a 7,000mAh battery.

DISPLAY

You get a 6.72-inch FHD+ LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1,050 nits of brightness. It is sharp and smooth, and clearly better than the HD+ panels on the OnePlus N6 and the NARZO phones. It is still an LCD, so blacks and contrast are not as good as the AMOLED screens on the POCO M8 and the two Samsung M-series phones.

PERFORMANCE

The Snapdragon 6s Gen 4 is a 4nm chip with four Cortex-A78 performance cores. In simple terms: smooth for daily use, social media and multitasking, and fine for BGMI or Free Fire at balanced settings. It is faster than every Dimensity 6300 phone here. 8GB RAM is the most in our list, which helps keep apps open in the background. Storage is 128GB; Motorola's own spec sheet does not list a microSD slot, so buy enough storage up front.

CAMERAS

The main camera uses Sony's 50MP LYT-600 sensor, joined by an 8MP ultra-wide lens. Having a real ultra-wide puts it ahead of the POCO M8, realme P4X and OnePlus N6 for group photos and landscapes. The selfie camera is a basic 8MP. The spec table lists 4K video recording. Reviews generally describe the results as average-to-good for the price rather than outstanding, so don't buy it purely for photography.

BATTERY AND CHARGING

The 7,000mAh battery is the big reason to buy this phone. With an efficient 4nm chip, most people will get well over a day, and lighter users close to two. Charging is 33W TurboPower, which is slower than the 45W–60W rivals here; a full charge takes well over an hour. The Amazon box-contents line only mentions a SIM ejector, so confirm whether a charger is included before you buy.

SOFTWARE AND UPDATES

It launched with Android 16, and Motorola's India support page says the Android 17 upgrade started rolling out on 10 September 2026. Motorola lists security updates until June 2028. Motorola's software is clean, with few extra apps, but the update window is much shorter than Samsung's six years or POCO's four OS updates.

AUDIO AND EXTRAS

Stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res Audio, plus a 3.5mm headphone jack, make this the best phone in our list for audio. NFC is also listed in independent spec sheets.

HOW IT COMPARES AT THIS PRICE

The realme NARZO 90x at the same ₹21,499 charges much faster (60W) and has IP65, but uses a slower Dimensity 6300 and an HD+ screen. The Galaxy M36 costs ₹1,500 more for an AMOLED screen, OIS and 6 years of updates, but has a smaller battery and no IP rating. The POCO M8 has a better screen and chip, but a smaller battery.

WHO SHOULD SKIP IT

Skip it if you want fast charging, an AMOLED screen, or long-term software updates.

VALUE FOR MONEY

At ₹21,499 with 8GB RAM, a 7,000mAh battery, an ultra-wide camera and stereo speakers, the G57 Power is one of the best-value phones in this list.

VERDICT

Buy the Motorola G57 Power 5G if you want big battery life, good speakers and clean software for about ₹21,500. Skip it if fast charging or an AMOLED screen matters more. Check the live Amazon price before you buy.
