At inspection
Common Moto G 5G (2024) issues we check at inspection
- Cracked or scratched screen. The Gorilla Glass 3 display is entry-level protection and cracks or scratches readily from drops and pocket wear.
- Slow charging and battery degradation. With only 18W charging, an aged 5000mAh battery is slow to refill and can drain faster than when new.
- Charging port wear. The USB-C port can loosen or gather lint, causing intermittent or failed charging.
- Carrier lock or FRP activation lock. Units are often sold locked to a prepaid carrier or with Factory Reset Protection enabled, blocking setup and lowering value.
- Silicone-polymer back scuffs. The soft textured rear can scuff, stain, or discolor over time, reducing cosmetic grade.
- Speaker or microphone faults. The loudspeaker or mics can become muffled or crackly with age, affecting audio and calls.
