The moto g53 5G has been named Best Value Phone at the 2023 WhistleOut Awards.

WhistleOut says, “Motorola’s moto g53 over-delivers on expectations about what a budget phone can offer. If you don’t want to spend an arm and leg on a phone, there’s nothing quite as compelling as the Moto G53 in its category“.

Priced at under $350, the moto g53 offers a two-day battery life, a snappy processor, 5G, a high-refresh-rate display, and a surprisingly premium feel.

Kurt Bonnici, Head of Motorola for Australia and New Zealand said, “We are delighted to see our moto g range continue to excel in the mid-tier segment“.

With the current economic uncertainties and increasing pressures on many Australians, moto g53 5G can help get lightning fast 5G speeds into the hands of those who want to benefit from the capabilities of the 5G networks around them without spending thousands of dollars on their next smartphone. The moto g53 5G also includes the charger, headset and protective case in the box to limit how much users need to spend to get up and running,” said Bonnici.
