Motorola unveiled the Moto G Stylus (2026) in early April, and the phone went on sale earlier this week. So before we get into reviewing the phone we are just in time to bring you a quick unboxing.
The Moto G Stylus (2026) is available for sale on Amazon, Best Buy, and Motorola.com and is priced at $500. It comes with a USB cable and nothing more.
This means you’ll have to provide your own case and 68W charger. On the plus side, the phone has a beautiful back panel that you don’t need to cover as Moto makes sure the phone can handle some bumps and bruises, and it looks nicer with its textured finish than any basic silicone case.
What makes the Moto G Stylus (2026) interesting lies in its name itself – Stylus. The pen is built into the phone just like the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Like the Galaxy, the stylus here has a button to engage your special menu, and a click button on the other end to engage your OCD.

Writing on the screen is simple. Yes, it’s digital, but it’s fast, and it can actually make multitasking better.
And while the stylus is great, it’s not inherently better than the Moto G Stylus (2025). Actually, there has been very little change between the two phones. This year’s model adds an IP68 to IP69 rating, faster UFS 3.1 (vs. 2.2), and a 200mAh to 5,000mAh battery.
The rest of the phone is the same – the same Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 SoC, the same 8GB of RAM, the same 6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED, and the same 50MP wide-angle, 13MP ultrawide, and 32MP selfie shooters.
But that’s not a bad thing, because the older model is now cheaper! Anyway, that’s all we have for now with the Moto G Stylus (2026). Stay tuned for the full review!
