What makes the Moto G45 stand out is its range of vibrant colours. Motorola is once again collaborating with Pantone: the smartphone is offered in Brilliant Blue, Brilliant Green and Viva Magenta colors – the latter named by Pantone as the color of 2023. All three options feature a vegan leather back panel; There is an NFC module. The Moto G45 battery capacity is 5000 mAh; A 20W TurboPower charger is included. The OS is Android 14, and the manufacturer has promised a minimum of pre-installed software. Finally, there is FM radio and a 3.5mm jack, which are still popular in India.
