| Good | Light, minor scratches or scuffs from normal use, none deep. No cracks or dents. Fully working. |
| Fair | Heavier scratches, scuffs, or a small dent, but no cracks in the glass or screen. Fully working. |
| Cracked screen | Cracked or chipped screen or back glass, but it still powers on and the touchscreen works. |
| Broken | Powers on but has a fault, a bad display, or a part not working (camera, buttons, Face ID). |
| Won't power on | Won't turn on or hold a charge. We still buy it for parts. |
At inspection
Common Motorola One 5G issues we check at inspection
- Cracked or scratched screen. The large Gorilla Glass 3 display cracks and scratches easily, the most frequent defect on budget Motorola handsets.
- Battery degradation. The 5000mAh battery loses meaningful capacity after a few years, and slow 15W charging makes weak batteries more noticeable.
- Charging port issues. The USB-C port can loosen, corrode, or fill with lint, leading to intermittent charging.
- Carrier lock or FRP activation lock. Units may be locked to a carrier or have Factory Reset Protection enabled, preventing a clean setup and cutting value.
- Camera autofocus or module faults. The main or ultrawide cameras can develop autofocus problems or app crashes as the device ages.
- Plastic body scuffs and cosmetic wear. The plastic frame and back scuff and scratch with normal handling, lowering cosmetic grade.
