Frequently asked
How long does the Motorola Edge 60 Pro get updates?
Motorola provides 3 major Android OS upgrades and 4 years of security patches, putting end of support around April 2029 from its April 2025 release.
Does the Motorola Edge 60 Pro have wireless charging?
Yes, alongside 90W TurboPower wired charging it supports 15W wireless charging, which is uncommon in this price bracket.
When does the Moto G Stylus (2026) stop getting updates?
Motorola promises two major Android upgrades and three years of security patches from its April 2026 release, so security coverage ends around April 2029. That's a standard upgrade cycle but well behind the six-plus years some rivals offer, so factor it in if you plan to keep the phone a long time.
Is the stylus on the Moto G Stylus (2026) actually good?
It's a major leap over past models. The 2026 pen is a genuine active stylus with pressure and tilt sensitivity and a tiny rechargeable battery, so writing and drawing feel far more natural. It docks in the body, and a button opens a floating menu for quick notes, screenshots and Circle to Search.
