Moto G (2025) vs 13+ 5G
It depends
Too close to call outright
These two are within 3 points overall — it genuinely depends on price on the day. The 13+ 5G edges both longevity and performance, so prefer it when prices are close.
Value Score: Moto G (2025) 67 · 13+ 5G 70 — methodology
The lifespan decider
When specs are close, support length decides it — this is what each phone costs per month of safe use.
Category by category
Both displays are effectively the same class.
The 13+ 5G's MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Energy is simply the faster chip.
The 13+ 5G has the stronger camera system (2 real rear lenses vs 1).
Battery capacities are close enough not to decide this.
The 13+ 5G is supported until Sep 2028 — 7 months longer than the Moto G (2025).
Pound for pound, these two are equally good deals.
