Motorola has always had a knack for making great budget devices.
Nowadays, the company has a rather full and fleshed-out portfolio, including
more premium models from the Edge series and even its foldable form
factor offers in the Razr line. Still, there is something about the Moto G line
that remains the bread and butter of the legendary company.

Today, we have the Moto G84 in for review. It is technically the "highest
end" offer within the budget G family, and budget does remain the main
focus here, with an MSRP of INR19,999 ($245/€222) in India and €299 on
European markets. The Moto G84 has a classical look all around, but one
slightly spiced up by the inclusion of Pantone color options - Viva Magenta
and Marshmallow Blue. Both of these variants come with a faux leather back
panel and a vibrant color. The phone can also be had with a plastic back in
the more conservative Midnight Blue color while still offering a color-
matched camera island and middle frame.
