A brilliant 200MP phone held back by its chip.

The Moto G87 has a 6.78-inch 120Hz AMOLED rated for 5,000 nits peak brightness, a 200MP OIS main camera, IP68/IP69 protection and microSD expansion. The build and screen feel premium for a G-series phone. But the Dimensity 6400 throttles hard under load, 30W charging is slow, and there's only a basic 8MP ultrawide.
