- 5G connectivity
- Higher peak display brightness
- Potentially higher price
- Similar charging speed to Oppo A91
Display Comparison
Both devices share a contrast ratio of 1269:1, suggesting similar visual pop. However, the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus boasts a measured peak brightness of 543 nits, which will translate to better visibility outdoors compared to the Oppo A91, whose brightness is not specified. While both likely utilize LCD panels given their price points, the Moto G 5G Plus’s higher brightness is a tangible advantage for outdoor usability.
Camera Comparison
Both phones offer photo and video capabilities, but detailed sensor information is lacking for the Oppo A91. The Moto G 5G Plus likely features a more sophisticated camera system, benefiting from Qualcomm’s image signal processor (ISP) integrated within the Snapdragon 765G. While the presence of a 2MP macro camera on either device is largely a marketing gimmick, the overall image quality and processing capabilities will likely favor the Moto G 5G Plus due to its more powerful chipset.
Performance
The core difference lies in the chipsets. The Motorola Moto G 5G Plus’s Qualcomm Snapdragon 765 5G (7nm) is a significant leap ahead of the Oppo A91’s MediaTek Helio P70 (12nm). The 7nm process node allows for greater transistor density and improved power efficiency, resulting in better performance and less heat generation. The Snapdragon 765G’s CPU configuration – a 1x2.3 GHz Kryo 475 Prime core, 1x2.2 GHz Kryo 475 Gold core, and 6x1.8 GHz Kryo 475 Silver cores – is architecturally more advanced than the A91’s Octa-core (4x2.1 GHz Cortex-A73 & 4x2.0 GHz Cortex-A53). This translates to faster app loading times, smoother multitasking, and a more responsive user experience on the Moto G 5G Plus.
Battery Life
Both devices share an endurance rating of 114 hours, suggesting comparable battery life under similar usage conditions. Both also support 20W wired charging, with the Oppo A91 claiming a 50% charge in 30 minutes. However, the Snapdragon 765G’s superior power efficiency in the Moto G 5G Plus could potentially offset any minor differences in battery capacity, leading to slightly longer real-world usage times.
Buying Guide
Buy the Oppo A91 if you prioritize a lower upfront cost and primarily need a phone for basic tasks like calling, texting, and light social media use. You’ll be sacrificing performance for affordability. Buy the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus if you want a smoother, more responsive experience, especially if you plan on gaming, streaming, or using 5G frequently. The Snapdragon 765G offers a significant performance boost that justifies the likely price difference.
