Motorola reveals bang-for-buck Moto G7 family

Motorola is known for making some of the best affordable smartphones around, and today it's revealed the seventh iterations of its G series. The Moto G7 family has four devices - the Moto G7, the Moto G7 Power, the Moto G7 Plus, and the Moto G7 Play - although the Play is unlikely to make it to Australia. 

The Moto G7 and Moto G7 Plus are the easily the hero devices in the family: both have 6.2-inch 1080p displays with a tear-drop notch, dual-rear facing cameras, a glass front and back, and 64GB of storage.

Their other sibling, the Moto G7 Power, has a lower resolution screen (with a larger notch) and only 32GB of storage out of the box, but makes up for these compromises with a massive 5,000mAh said to last up to three days. 

Here's how the three compare in terms of hardware specifications. 

All new Moto G7 series devices ship with Android Pie, and most importantly, all still have headphone jacks. 

Motorola has confirmed that the Moto G7 Plus will be available in Australia in the coming months, but did not provide specific details regarding local pricing. The Moto G7 and Moto G7 Power are both slated for "Asia Pacific" availability, but it's currently unclear if this will include our sunburnt land.
