Moto G8 Power is much similar to G8 Plus in design. The only difference being that G8 Power uses a punch-hole display for the front camera and a slight difference in position of the camera flash at back of the device. Other than that the G8 Power is exactly similar to G8 Stylus in terms of design other than the fact that it doesn’t come with a stylus.

Battery

For a smartphone that’s under $250, the Motorola Moto G8 Power really features a massive battery. Full 5,000 mAh batteries are hard to seek out even in current flagship smartphones. But the battery size itself is way from being enough to be an endurance runner. Only the mixture of software and hardware can get the utmost out of the battery.
But the G8 Power makes a really good impression within the battery benchmark and managed a full 18 hours and 51 minutes in the PC Mark battery test.

Price
