The mid-range is a highly competitive segment that features smartphones with fantastic features priced between $250 and $300. One such option is the Moto G84, a handset that stands out for its attractive Pantone-inspired design, 256GB of base storage, extremely clean software that makes it, proportionally, very similar to the Google Pixel, and an offer that values it at around $220 (4100 Mexican Pesos at Movistar). If you are considering this Motorola smartphone among your buying options, we leave you with 5 mobile phones that you should buy instead of the Moto G84.
POCO X6 Pro
Our main gripe with the Moto G84 is that its processor (Snapdragon 695 5G) isn’t the most powerful on the market. Well, for an extra $100 you can get the POCO X6 Pro, one of our contenders for the best mid-range of 2024, which, thanks to the Mediatek Dimensity 8300 Ultra chipset, will let you game with excellent graphics quality.
Additionally, we believe that the photographic experience offered by POCO is

Redmi Note 13
The Redmi Note 13 is another option that we think is overall superior to the Moto G84, though you’ll also have to shell out an extra $50.
We think the Redmi Note 13 might appeal to you, especially if you’re looking for a phone with a slightly larger screen than the Moto G84’s 6.5-inch display. While the display resolution is the same, the Redmi Note 13’s is a bit brighter.
The photography experience between the two is very similar, but with the Redmi Note 13 you will have a macro lens that will come in handy, especially if you like to photograph insects or small objects.

Samsung Galaxy A35
This option is also more expensive than the Moto G84, but we think it delivers better photographic results, so if your budget is around $250 and you’re looking for the best camera, you should check out the Galaxy A35.
However, do not overlook the fact that you will have to spend money on purchasing a charger that supports 25W fast charging.

Google Pixel 6a 5G
Yes, we also have options that are a little cheaper, and that’s the case of the Google Pixel 6a 5G, which, although it has a couple of years under its belt, is still a fantastic option in this price range.
Even two years after its launch, it offers outstanding photography capabilities and will continue to update its version of Android for another two years. It is also the only phone on this list that has an aluminum frame.

Honor Magic6 Lite
Our pick if you want a much brighter screen, more power, and a superior photography experience. However, it’s the most expensive option on this list (around $350), so we’d consider looking for a deal if it interests you.
And why should you care? Because it has a great design, a virtually bezel-less screen, a long-lasting battery, and a pretty powerful processor (Snapdragon 6 Gen 1).
