What really sets the New Expected model Moto G56 5G apart is its 5,200 mAh battery. That’s well above average for mid‑range phones. Whether you’re streaming videos, scrolling through apps, using 5G, or capturing photos, this phone tends to last a full day of heavy use, and often beyond. Motorola claims up to 24 hours, and users report it holds up well under real‑life usage, too.
Charging isn’t blazing fast, but the 30 W TurboPower charging lets you get a decent top‑up in a relatively short time.
Display & Build
The Moto G56 5G comes with a 6.72‑inch FHD+ LCD screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate, which makes scrolling and animations feel fluid.
Its durability is impressive: IP68 + IP69 water and dust resistance, plus Gorilla Glass 7i on the front for tougher protection. That means it stands up better than many phones in this price tier if you’re outside, in humid or dusty environments.
Cameras & Performance
You get a 50 MP Sony main camera, which does well in bright lighting, supported by an 8 MP ultra‑wide sensor. For selfies, there’s a 32 MP front shooter. Good setup for mid‑range.
Under the hood is the MediaTek Dimensity 7060, paired with Android 15. RAM and storage come in various options (e.g., 8 GB/256 GB in many markets), so it can handle multitasking decently. It’s not going to outperform flagship chipsets, but for daily tasks, social apps, and moderate gaming, it holds its own.
Trade‑Offs & What to Expect
- Fast charging is only 30 W, which is okay, but not cutting‑edge. You’ll still need a bit of patience when recharging from low.
- While IP68/IP69 and Gorilla Glass are great bonuses, the ultra‑wide camera and zoom won’t compete with premium phones. Night photography will be okay, but not flagship‑level.
- Update policy is modest: fewer major OS updates compared to top‑tier phones. For long‑term users, that might matter.
