Motorola is trying its best to dominate the affordable end of the smartphone market. 

From the Moto G84 to the recently announced G04, G24 and G34, the smartphone company has a model on offer for just about everyone.

Right in the middle of the lineup is the G54, and while I haven’t tested the three new affordable models, I feel that this one hits a sweet spot between price and performance.

With features typically found in more expensive devices and better performance than the price tag would suggest, the Motorola Moto G54 is a solid option for anyone looking for a smartphone on a budget.
