TL;DR<\/p>\n
Motorola has revealed the Moto G Stylus 2026 and Moto Pad 2026.
\nThe new Moto G Stylus is $100 more expensive than the 2025 model, but it has an active stylus and a brighter screen.
\nThere\u2019s no word on the Moto Pad\u2019s price just yet, but it has an 11-inch 120Hz screen and a budget-tier Dimensity 6300 chip.<\/p>\n
You don\u2019t need to spend a ton of cash to get a phone with a stylus, as the Motorola Moto G Stylus<\/a> range offers a bundled stylus at a budget price. We\u2019re just about due for another model, and Motorola has indeed announced the Moto G Stylus 2026.<\/p>\n The new Moto G Stylus indeed offers a stylus in an integrated slot, but this is now an active pen rather than a purely capacitive solution seen on previous models. The manufacturer claims that the new pen supports tilt and pressure sensitivity. Furthermore, Moto says you can expect 100 hours of usage and a 15-minute charging time. The pen also features a shortcut button for your convenience. This upgraded stylus also comes a year after Samsung downgraded the Galaxy S25 Ultra\u2019s S Pen<\/a>.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n Otherwise, core specs include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB or 256GB of storage. The 2025 model also shipped with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chipset, and the newer model has surprisingly skipped the more powerful Snapdragon 6 Gen 4<\/a>.<\/p>\n Do you think the Moto G Stylus 2026 is worth it for $499.99?<\/p>\n 12 votes<\/p>\n Yes, I do<\/p>\n 42%<\/p>\n No, I don’t<\/p>\n 42%<\/p>\n I’m not sure, I’ll wait for reviews<\/p>\n 17%<\/p>\n The Moto G Stylus 2026 also packs a 6.7-inch 120Hz OLED screen (2,712 x 1,220) with up to 5,000 nits of peak brightness. Of course, peak brightness is largely a gimmick<\/a>, but this is still a major leap over its predecessor\u2019s 3,000 nits.<\/p>\n Hadlee Simons \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n The new phone is powered by a 5,200mAh battery, which is a mild upgrade over the previous model\u2019s 5,000mAh capacity. And once the battery runs low, you can take advantage of 68W wired or 15W wireless charging.<\/p>\n In terms of the camera experience, the Moto G Stylus 2026 brings a 50MP main camera (Sony LYTIA 700C), a 13MP ultrawide shooter, and a 32MP selfie camera. Other notable specs include IP68\/IP69<\/a> ratings, Gorilla Glass 3, a \u201cleather-inspired\u201d design, and a 3.5mm port.<\/p>\n Moto Pad 2026<\/p>\n Hadlee Simons \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n On the hunt for an Android tablet<\/a> that probably won\u2019t break the bank? Then the Moto Pad 2026 might be up your alley. Motorola says this slate offers an 11-inch 90Hz display (2.5K resolution), a budget-tier Dimensity 6300 chipset, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, microSD expansion, and a quad-speaker setup.<\/p>\n The new Moto Pad also has a 7,040mAh battery, with Motorola claiming it enables up to 12 hours of streaming. Motorola says the device \u201cquickly recharges\u201d with 20W wired speeds, but I guess the company has a very loose definition of \u201cquickly.\u201d<\/p>\n Pricing and availability<\/p>\n Hadlee Simons \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n Keen on the Moto G Stylus 2026? There\u2019s some bad news, as the device has a recommended price of $499.99. That means it\u2019s $100 more expensive than the Moto G Stylus 2025. We\u2019re guessing the RAM crisis<\/a> and other component price hikes are at least partially to blame for this increase. This also puts it firmly in Pixel 10a<\/a> territory.<\/p>\n Otherwise, you can find the new Moto handset at a variety of retail partners from April 16. These partners include Amazon, AT&T, Best Buy, Google Fi Wireless, Spectrum, Cricket, and more. Motorola says the 128GB model will be bundled with four free Moto Tags<\/a> at launch, while the 256GB model will include a free pair of Moto Buds Loop earbuds, a Moto Watch, and a Moto Tag.<\/p>\n Fancy the Moto Pad 2026? It\u2019ll be available via T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile from April 30. There\u2019s no word on a price yet, with Moto saying that the aforementioned carrier partners will reveal pricing upon availability.<\/p>\n Motorola Moto G Stylus 2026<\/a> Active stylus \u2022 120Hz OLED screen \u2022 Wireless charging<\/p>\n The Moto G Stylus gets an active pen and a bright screen<\/p>\n The Moto G Stylus 2026 is $100 more expensive than its predecessor, but gets a significant stylus upgrade along with a brighter screen. Other notable features include wireless charging and an IP69 rating.<\/p>\n![\"google](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1768240152_738_google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/ "\\"google"){kind=icon}
