Motorola continues to improve its low-end and mid-range product offering with the announcement of the Moto G Stylus 5G and the Moto G 5G. 

In February, Motorola updated the standardMoto G Stylus , but didn't announce anything new for the Moto G Stylus 5G that was released back in 2020. With Thursday's announcement, the stylus-equipped model is gaining its fair share of updates.

$499 at Motorola

Priced at$499, the updatedMoto G Stylus 5G  is available to preorder right now at Best Buy, Walmart, Amazon, and Motorola. It'll start shipping on April 28. Improvements to this model include an upgrade to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G processor, up to 8GB of memory, and up to 256GB of storage with support for up to 1TB of microSD storage. 

It has a 6.8-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a 5,000mAh battery, and three rear-facing cameras: A 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle that doubles as a macro camera as well, and finally, a 2MP depth sensor. 

The front camera is 16MP. Unlike the Moto Edge Plus I just reviewed that had optional stylus support, the Moto G Stylus 5G has a built-in silo to hold the stylus for quick and easy access at all times.
