The front of the phone is dominated by a 6.4-inch LCD with a small camera notch at the top and minimal bezels.

The screen has a 19:9 aspect ratio, and resolution clocks in at 2,300 by 1,080, for 399 pixels per inch. It looks crisp and gets bright, making it easy to see in direct sunlight. Colors are slightly cool, but it’s a very good display for the price.On the back you’ll find a triple camera stack with a time-of-flight sensor (ToF) in the top left corner, while the fingerprint sensor is hidden beneath the Motorola logo in the center.

The top edge of the phone is bare, and the bottom is home to a headphone jack, a USB-C charging port, and a speaker. The left side has a hybrid SIM/microSD slot, while the volume rocker and textured power button are on the right; both provide a satisfying click but are hard to reach with small hands and it should come as no surprise that the Moto G Stylus features a built-in stylus.

Tucked in the bottom right corner of the phone, it’s easy to access and remove. It’s also easy to lose; luckily, you can adjust the phone's settings to remind you if the stylus has been removed for an extended period of time, or the last place you pulled it out.
