Motorola G56. Why buy an expensive phone?
I've bought this phone as my previous Motorola phone, which I had for many years, started to play up. I'm a simplistic mobile phone user not requiring a phone with all the bells and whistles. This phone has met all my needs at a very good price. I've always bought Motorola phones, and suppose my next phone will be one too. I'm delighted with this phone and I'm glad I bought it. I can't think of anything negative to say about it.

A Great Phone/
I have had the phone for over 2 months now and I am extremely pleased with it. It does everything you would expect and more. I am very impressed with the battery life in particular. The phone is fast and responsive. I haven't used the camera much but it does seem good. I particularly like the zoom feature and the quality of photos in low light conditions. Very pleased with my purchase.
Festy, 65 or over

Gaby, 45 - 54
Seems great so far
• Camera seems to be good so far. • Battery is lasting well • Display looks good for an LCD as opposed to led, which most manufacturers use nowadays. • It seems fairly durable. It comes with a clear protective case. • It performs well so far • whether it will last I’m not sure, as this model only has 2 maybe 3 years of updates. Many higher spec phones come with as many as 7+ years of updates.

Hi Donald99
SIM Free Motorola g56 5G 256GB Mobile Phone - Black Oyster:
Please see the link below with the chargers that are available on the website. The phone requires a USB A to C adaptor that is 5W minimum and 30W maximum.
As this is a personal choice, we would not be able to signpost a particular charger.

Motorola state on their website that the Moto G56 5G has a microSD card slot.
Motorola state on their website that the Moto G56 5G has a microSD card slot.
Motorola UK lists Motorola g56 5G with a single slot with space for both a SIM card and a micro SD installed at the same time in addition to a built in eSIM.
The maximum capacity of the micro SD card is 2TB.
The Argos answer is incorrect it deff has a micro SD card slot in the SIM tray. I own one.
