Motorola Moto G 37 vs Samsung Galaxy A16 5G

Our Verdict: With Samsung Galaxy A16 5G versus Motorola Moto G 37, the stronger argument is display quality. The Samsung has the useful edge there with a sharper 385 PPI display, its Super AMOLED panel, and a higher-resolution 13MP front camera. The Motorola still has a role if you prefer a 6.7-inch IPS LCD display at 264 PPI, a 50MP rear camera, and an 8MP front camera. The Samsung is the stronger choice for display quality, with the Motorola better suited to simplicity.
