Moto G Stylus, LG K51 and Stylo 6 launch budget price onslaught on T-Mobile, Sprint and Metro
The new T-Mobile is not resting when it comes to rolling out the post-merger 5G network, piggybacking on Sprint’s vast 2.5GHz holdings. It’s also not resting when it comes to welcoming new phones in its portfolio, tried and tested on the merged network.
Since 5G coverage is still limited, though, and its median speeds in the low- to mid-bands are as fast as the fastest 4G LTE, there should be something for those who don’t want fancy new 5G handsets, and T-Mobile just announced a trio of new budget phones coming its, Sprint’s and Metro’s ways.

Battery: 4000mAh

Motorola moto g stylus
As you can see, the Motorola moto g stylus is a very worthy contender to the LG Stylo 6 specs, what with its slide-out stylus and 128GB of storage, not to mention the “48MP, AI-powered triple camera system,” or the large 4000mAh battery. A phone with a stylus needs a tad larger screen to work on, though, so the Stylo 6 has an advantage in that regard.
In any case, the Motorola moto g stylus is already launched on Metro by T-Mobile today for $239, and if you switch from another carrier you can get it for free. Even if you are just looking for a new budget phone, it’s amazing what two Benjamins and change can buy these days. Any takers?
