Motorola G57 Power 5G Review: Snapdragon 6s Gen4 performance & 7000mAh battery

Motorola has expanded its lineup with the Motorola G57 Power 5G, a phone built around a 7000mAh battery that simply refuses to quit — this phone is built for heavy users who hate carrying chargers around. Designed for heavy users, media & streaming, everyday use, it brings 5G connectivity, a large 7000mAh battery, a smooth 120Hz display, and the Snapdragon 6s Gen4 chipset into one well-rounded package.

The phone sits at a competitive price in the Indian market. It doesn't try to compete with premium flagships — instead it focuses on delivering a balanced everyday experience, and in that mission it largely succeeds.

Design & Build Quality

At 211g, the Motorola G57 Power 5G feels noticeably heavy in the hand — the price you pay for that large battery inside to hold. With an IP64 rating, it offers real protection against dust and splashes for everyday use. A side-mounted fingerprint sensor unlocks the phone quickly and reliably. The 3.5mm headphone jack is a welcome addition for wired audio fans.

Design Rating: 6.9/10

Display

The phone features a 6.72-inch LCD panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1080 x 2400 resolution. Scrolling through apps, social media and websites feels noticeably smoother than standard 60Hz displays. With 1050 nits of peak brightness, it stays perfectly readable even outdoors. The ~391 PPI density keeps text sharp and crisp. It's a capable panel for everyday content, though not as vibrant as AMOLED rivals.

Display Rating: 8/10

Performance

Powering the Motorola G57 Power 5G is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen4. Daily tasks such as browsing, video streaming, online classes, messaging and social media all run smoothly. It scores around 6,20,000 on AnTuTu, which is solid for this segment — casual games and multitasking are handled without major issues.

It runs Android 16 with My UX on top out of the box. The interface is clean, well-optimised and easy to live with day to day.

Camera Performance

The Motorola G57 Power 5G comes with a 50MP main camera along with additional sensors for depth and wide-angle shots. In daylight, the primary camera captures detailed photos with natural colours and good dynamic range. The Sony LYTIA 600 sensor helps keep low-light shots usable. Video recording is limited to 1080p, which is acceptable for social media and OTT sharing. Selfies come from a 8MP front camera — good enough for video calls and social posts.
