Moto G Stylus 5G (2023) - Tips and Tricks (Hidden Features)

[@420StonedToParallels]

Is this phone good for recording at concerts? I have a Galaxy A14 and the quality is decent but the audio recording is bad and sounds like there's static like the mic is blow out or something. I just want a budget phone that's going to record a concert with decent sound quality that doesn't sound like my speakers are blown out.

[@cat_thegamer2.063]

Yes I have one it's the best camera I've seen 😀

[@DavidHee]

Thank you for making this series of videos for this particular Moto G Stylus 5G. On paper, this seems very interesting of a mid range phone; especially with that SD 6 Gen 1. Only thing missing is ReadyFor and this device would have everything (maybe a telephoto lens to add)

[@Chicago48]

I own it and it's very smoothe.

[@ingzimmerman899]

Magnetic Charging would be nice also.

[@meatwad7632]

I just got this phone and I'm impressed for how cheap it is

[@lindapettigrew1888]

I need to change from pin sign in to the 9 dot pad sign in? How can I change that please? Linda

[@prashanttiwari3842]

Setting - security and privacy - device unlock - tap to screen lock - put the pin - there will be an option - swipe, pattern, password

[@davidm5707]

I've had a g power 5g 2023 for a couple of months and love it. It's probably the same phone without the stylus, which I don't need. Thanks for the tips, I've already used some of them.

[@ME2too2022]

Thanks! Free Lenovo tablet with purchase of 5g Moto 2023 - hurry while it lasts! 4/19/2024

[@Churlyboy1]

The brilliant treble setting on this phone's dolby atmos is like a "punchy bass" setting. It doesn't enhance treble at all, but will give a better bass response. Smart audio setting is pretty much the best to just use all the the time. It's crazy how this mistake made it all the way out with no one fixing it.

[@natetheDrummer90]

Are there any good Chargers for these? They all slow…. Sorta sucks with the charger it comes with

[@TechRight]

Anker is my go to for chargers

[@davidm5707]

My moto g power 5g came with a 15 watt charger, however the phone itself only charges at 10 watts. One of the only downsides of these phones.

[@emmiestacy]

Make sure it's not on battery conservation mode

[@Blessed.2.Teach.4God]

You guys don't realize the faster you charge the battery the faster you torch it's lifespan = phone becomes unusable due to battery (how ironic). Find a good happy medium, 10-15w is plenty fast.

[@cooperela]

whats that button the stylus pen your pushing for?

[@backroadsusa6915]

I'm wondering if the button means anything when you push it either or if it's just something for people to push and play with.

[@TheCybertiger9]

when you push on the button (which is the stylus) it "unlocks" the pen out of phone so you can grab it with your fingernail. When you are done with the stylus put it back into the phone and push in the button in so it locks the stylus so it doesnt fall out.

[@cooperela]

@@TheCybertiger9 ty very much for responding an answer

[@Chicago48]

I don't have a stylus opening on my Motog 5G

[@juliehayne4636]

Thank you! I am putting this on my playlist to watch again when my phone comes!

[@martharivera151]

Hello good morning. I would like to know, in your opinion, which is the better cell phone between the Samsung galaxy S25 5G and the Motorola Moto G stylus 5G 2023, if both are 128 GB? Thank you in advance for the response.

[@cristianandino7685]

[@jerryberry2002]

Here's a tip : If you're looking to pickup this phone it's on sale for Prime Day for $299. I thought we'd have to wait until the Holidays to see a price like that.

[@RookitMaster]

Got mine for 200

[@LaVidaesfria_]

Got mine for free 😊

[@taylorsapp8195]

Got mine for $59

[@mad4killing4gaming16]

59 at Walmart

[@oz7586]

​@@mad4killing4gaming16probably the 4gb RAM version vs 6. Still a good value tho

[@CJBrowninLV]

If your Motorola Device is capable of charging at 20 Watts? pick up the Motorola TurboPower™ 20W Wall Charger with USB-C Data Cable ($20) - I don't know why there's not a 20W Wall Charger included when you purchase the 2023 Motorola G Stylus 5G, but picking one up and using it will cut 40 minutes of charging time on average (Moto My UX is a great way to customize your Device) 😀

[@PhillipLemmon]

its not in there cuz of a few reasons... to make money with a the add on sales cuz if it were in with the phone it would jack upthe price if you already have a charger of ANY kind you can use THAT to charge the phone cuz fast charging the phone eventually wears the battery down over time. (but you already knew ALL these reasons didn't you...?)

[@HonestKolton]

External microphone tips how to use one...?

[@flyercan]

Can the icons be set to 5 across or are they stuck at 4? Do the home screen or any screen with the icons rotate with the phone or do they stay at portrait? 2 things I do not like on a phone, not rotating the home screen and stuck on 4 icons across.

[@artistx76]

Yes in personal settings

[@taylorsapp8195]

Yes to both

[@flyercan]

@@taylorsapp8195 The home screen rotates and it can be set to 5 icons across?!

[@donotneed2250]

Since I don't particularly like either of the keyboards that come on the phone I started using Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard a few years ago. I can resize it, choose a different color scheme and more.

[@santiagohardy2728]

Looks slick, especially that undulating wallpaper. Beautiful. I am in dire need to upgrade from my LG Stylo 6. The back popped off a year ago, and the exposed battery is completely bloated. I am definitely leaning towards that model, or the moto 5 g. Your study and breakdown of the latest Motorola phones the past 2 weeks has me sold.

[@megmulholland4518]

I just got this phone and I've been using it for a week. It's really nice! I'm coming from the 2017 Moto 5g plus. Squeezed a full six years outta that puppy. I put off replacing until I had no choice, it was giving me a "System UI has stopped" and I couldn't figure out how to clear it. I wanted to step up in grade- was thinking of the Edge 30 Fusion or the Thinkphone. But. I could grab this one at Target immediately and I just decided to not wait for shipping on the others. I didn't plan on being this happily surprised! I'd already ordered the '22 model of this phone, but I returned it because it was soo big and heavy. This one is definitely better in the hand. Still, compared to my old G5+ this feels too heavy and a bit too tall, but that's just the way the phones have evolved since then. It's my only gripe. As I said, I think the size is more comfortable than last year's model. I'm loving the fun of drawing my own animations and sending them as messages. I'm sure there are other applications of that feature but I haven't figured it out, yet. Yeah, I've been really happy with this phone!

[@santiagohardy2728]

@@megmulholland4518 Excuse this late reply. Thanks for the details, i appreciate your explanation and your scrutiny. I am definitely leaning towards this model. I like it's features, and it's look. I hope to upgrade sometime in the next month or so. Enjoy that phone for me!!

[@instantclassic1974]

Does this device have ram boost. Im an owner of the 2022 5g version and i can boost from 8gb to 10 gb of ram

[@shinizzy4351]

Pretty sure this will have ram boost as well

[@HayJace36]

Sorry for being uneducated, what's RAM boost and how do you do it? Is it an app or do you have to replace something in the phone like you do with PCs?

[@PhillipLemmon]

Ram boos is pretty much using the storage as "additional" ram so if you get this and it does have it (but I think it's just for samsung phones, I really don't know) then get the unlocked version Cuz like I said, it cuts into your storage space. Hope this helps you understand.

[@taylorsapp8195]

Thanks bro I just got this phone today and this was super helpful. The only thing different about mine is when I went to display refresh rate mine only goes up to 90 hz

Go to settings performance and ram boost it'll increase it by 1.5 ram.

[@peterparker2068]

@@kenwythwalker I was looking for that setting and it's not there. Not sure if it matter which model it is. I bought my phone from Boost Mobile. Seems like Boost sells the cheaper version with only 4GB of RAM compared to the other model with 6GB

[@That_1_Outcast]

The most performance settings you’ll find under the system option and the performance options will be under language and input

[@peterparker2068]

@@That_1_Outcast Already checked. It might be different model with different carriers but in the Performance setttings, I only have smart app launch and storage cleanup. There's no setting for RAM boost. I even downloaded an app that is suppose to boost the virtual RAM but it made no difference.

[@kenwythwalker]

Which one do you have ? I have the 2023 version it comes with Android 13 and has that feature under performance settings

does the phone that acts like Hey Siri or Hey Google?? also, when I hold down the power button, I could tell it commands. when i ask it to make a call, why does it add a +1 to the call. I want to get rid of that +1 part when I ask it to make a call. let me know!

+1 means it's a US call. If you call to other countries they also have their own codes.

Watch out when you buy this phone or a Moto G 5G they are almost the same exact phone but the cases don't fit both. The cutouts are off a tiny bit but it's enough to frustrate anyone.

It does but you have to have the buttons on the bottom. If you use the gesture bar, it says you have to switch to the buttons. Unless someone can tell me different, that'd be great.
