SpecEagle Editorial·Feb 2020·$300·Score 56/100

Moto G Stylus (2020) launched Motorola's budget stylus line — a built-in silo pen, big screen and clean Android at $300, undercutting the Galaxy Note dramatically. The passive stylus and slow charging were the costs, but it created a popular value niche.
