Moto G15 and G15 Power – Key Features
The Moto G15 and G15 Power share many similarities. Both phones feature a 6.72-inch Full HD+ LCD display with a punch-hole cutout for the 8 MP selfie camera. The rear cameras include a 50 MP main sensor and a 5 MP ultrawide lens making them suitable for everyday photography.
Under the hood, both models are powered by the Helio G81 chipset, an LTE-only processor with a 2 GHz octa-core CPU and 4 GB of RAM. Storage options include 128 GB, 256 GB and 512 GB with an option to expand via a microSD card.
In terms of battery, the Moto G15 Power packs a larger 6,000 mAh battery, while the G15 has a 5,200 mAh capacity. The extra battery size makes the Power model slightly thicker (8.8 mm vs. 8.2 mm) and heavier (203g vs. 190g).

The phones come in three colours – Gravity Gray, Iguana Green and Sunrise Orange, all featuring vegan leather back panels for a premium feel.
