Why should you get a Moto G case?
Although Moto G is very affordable, you still should invest a few bucks on Moto G case to protect your phone from scratches, bumps, smudges and dirt.
There are many options for your Moto G case. The price varies from a few dollars to more than $50. Of course different Moto G cases give different levels of protection. But the expensive Mot G case does not necessarily give better protection.
This Moto G case guide will show you some cases or covers for Moto G that give you the maximum value for your money.
The 5 secrets of getting a “right” Moto G case for you
When purchasing a Moto G case or Moto G cover, there are five secrets :
- Limit your budget. You’d better have a clear idea how much you plan to spend on your Moto G case. Do not just check the price tag. Expensive case or cover is not necessarily better than cheap ones. Or course, if you have more budget, you may have more options. You may set the budget for your Moto G case as less than $10, $20, $40, $60…
- Understand the protections you need. If you drop your smartphone quite often, you probably need Moto G case with decent impact protection, e.g., OtterBox case.
- Check the quality. The material used for case or cover is extremely important. Poor quality material actually may not provide any protection to Moto G. A non-fit case may even damage your phone. When pursing online, you should read the reputation of the store and reviews of the specific Moot G case.
- Know your preference. What design do you like for your Moto G case? A back case or a flip cover? Black? white? Anyway, this is purely personal choice. You should be able to find the desired case for your Moto G. Don’t be lured by any “sales” pitches.
- Have a targeted weight (and size) of your Moto G case. Some Moot G cases or covers may be heavier than your phone. Some may be just 20-30 grams. Most bumper cases are slight larger.
Of course, the following Moto G case recommendations will save you time in comparing the cases and covers for your Moto G.
Moto G case recommendation #1 (less than $10, slim and style): Tudia Ultra Slim Melody Bumper Case
This Moto G case is simple and affordable. The case is flexible (so it is easy to get it on or take it off), but it is made of decent quality thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).
This Moto G case fits Mot G surprisingly well. It does not add bulk to your Moto G: it weighs less than 20 grams. The design of this Moto G case is minimal, but it looks very impressive.
The raised edges design of the case helps protect the Moto G screen from scratches when placed the device face down. The raised edge may also protect the screen if Moto G drops. But overall, the case mainly protect your Moto G from scratching, dusts and bumps. It will not provide the need protection from drops of impacts.
So, this ultra slim bumper case is for Moto G owners who need basic protection without adding bulk. It is quite stylish as well.
Moto G case recommendation #2 (less than $10, dual layer hybrid protection, with kickstand): Mpero IMPACT X Series Kickstand Case
This is probably the the cheapest hybrid Moto G case, with decent quality. The list price is $24.99, but most of the time the case is offered in less than $10. It is really a good deal as you can get this case in less than $10.
Like any other dual layer hybrid case, the inner soft silicone layer absorbs the shock and impact. The outer polycarbonate plastic layer delivers additional protection and and enhanced grip. The material quality is acceptable. The case fits Moto G quite well.
This Moto G case also comes with kickstand, which is ideal for watching videos, browsing the web and reading. It can stand in both landscape and portrait modes.
This hybrid case can give decent protection from scratches, bumps drops, and even impact, with very low price tag. If you think the $40 OtterBox for Moto G is a bit expensive, but you need high level protection, this dual layer Moto G case is for you.
Moto G case recommendation #3 (less than $10, PU leather flip cover, with stand): LK Wallet PU Leather Case Flip Cover
Some Moto G owners may prefer a flip cover case. This PU leather case is a good option: cheap but with decent quality.
The design of this Moto G flip case is very similar to other wallet -type case. The features are also similar to others. If you used some wallet-type case before, there probably be no surprise for you.
The material (the PU leather) used in thsi Moto G case is not the best, but the quality is acceptable. The case also fits Moto G very well.
You can choose different colors for this Moto G case: black, white, blue, red, pink and purple. The free screen protector in the box is not so good, and you probably want to get your screen protector somewhere else.
In short, if you are looking for a normal and affordable PU leather flip cover case, this wallet-type Moto G case is a good option.
Moto G case recommendation #4 (Ultimate protection): OtterBox Defender Series Case for Moto G
OtterBox is well known for their rugged protection cases. It is the De facto standard of smartphone cases that can provide ultimate protection of the smartphones.
Just like other OtterBox Defender series, this Moto G case provides rugged protection. The quality of material used in the case is the best
This case provides reliable protection from drops, bumps and shock without taking away from the usability of your phone’s features. Port covers block the accumulation of dust and lint in ports and jacks. The screen protector is built into the case to prevent scratches and scrapes to the glass display.
There are two colors you can choose from: black/black and key lime (green/grey).
In short, OtterBox Defender series case for Moto G probably provides the best protection for Moto G. It is also a bit heavier than other cases we recommended. The brand tells everything. But remember, this Moto G case is not cheap.

Does the moto g power 2023 case fit the moto g g5 2023 phone?
simon says
Do you mean Moto G 2023 (it is a 5G phone)?
The case for Moto G Power 2023 5G, and Moto G 2023 is interchangeable, although the dimensions of the two phone are slightly different.
Anyway, you should try to get the case specially for your model.

I bought my son the moto g stylus 2022 will the cases for the moto g stylus 2022 5g fit it??
simon says
No, it is not. The size of the 4G and 5G version of the Moto G stylus (2022) is slightly different. And the case is NOT compatible with each other.
Motorola now always releases confusing products with minor differences (which could be a headache for users when shopping accessories).

Celestial Gauthier says
So I have a Moto G5 2022 and am having trouble finding cases for it in the styles that I find that I like. They include other models of Motorola and I guess I’m wondering if any other version fit the G5 2022 close enough that they can be used?
simon says
Do you mean Moto G 5G 2022? There are a few cases for this phone on Amazon.com.
Normally, the phone case is not interchangeable.

Hi there, does anyone know what phone cases are compatible with a moto g 11 pure ?

Most of the phone cases are only compatible with a specific model. Some phones may look similar, and the difference in the dimensions may be just 1 or 2mms. But the cases are not interchangeable.

Kristen H says
I am pretty sure I am correct in saying that a Moto G7 Power case would not exactly fit a Moto G7 phone? It looks to me based on dimensions like maybe the G7 Power is just slightly bigger? (Just asking in case that opens up some options but pretty sure I need to stick to G7 specifically for a case!)
simon says
Yes, you are right. Moto G7 Power case does NOT fit Moto G7. Actually, cases for G7 and G7 Plus are interchangeable. G7 Power is too thick.

Nope. You may return it if it is an option.

Mr Mark R Simpson says
What if any other G phone cases will fit a G8 Plus – for example would a G8 Power case be ok for a Moto G8 Plus
simon says
Moto G8 Play.
Please note, Moto G8 Plus case can be used on Moto G8 Play. But Moto G8 Play case may or may not be used for Moto G8 Plus. Moto G8 Plus has a larger camera cutting (for the laser autofocus sensor) than G8 Play. But most case makers use the larger cutout so that it can be used for both Moto G8 Plus and Moto G8 Play.
Anyway, you can always check with the seller to confirm whether it fits your G8 Plus.

Sean says
I highly recommend the Trident Aegis case. I’d put it up against the OtterBox any day and it’s more affordable.
Nick Reid says
I’ve been using the OtterBox Commuter – it’s lighter, smaller and less protective than the Defender, but it still gives a very good level of protection. Not only has it kept my Moto G in pristine condition for over a year (despite some severe drops from height onto stone and concrete), but the case itself also shows no real signs of wear. Only downsides as far as I’m concerned is that it takes a little bit more effort to press the volume/power buttons (but not that much) and it makes the phone significantly bulkier (but not that much). Highly recommended.
simon says
Thank you for sharing your experiences with Otterbox Commuter case for moto g. I agree it provides sufficient protection for most users. Due to button design in modern smartphones, it may require a bit more efforts to reach them when a case is on.
