Moto G85 5G: Specs and features

The Moto G85 5G sports a slim and light design. The Moto G85 weighs 172g and is 7.5mm thick. It also has a vegan leather back panel. The rear panel also features a dual-camera setup with a small flashlight alongside it. The cameras are housed on a slightly elevated rectangular island, which also sports the same leather finish.

The device has a 6.7-inch pOLED curved-display with 120Hz refresh rate. It also boasts a peak brightness of 1600nits and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5. The device's show-stopping feature is its curved display, similar to the high-end Moto Edge series. The curved display makes the phone’s already-thin bezels almost unnoticeable.

Accompanying this is an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, perfect for capturing expansive landscapes or group shots. The front camera is a 32-megapixel shooter, promising high-quality self-portraits and video calls.
