About the Motorola Moto E22i
The Moto E22i is the stripped-back version of Motorola's 2022 entry-level pair, and the giveaway is the battery: 4,020mAh, where nearly every rival at this level uses 5,000mAh. What you get in return is a lighter, slimmer phone at 169g and 8mm thick, which makes it easier to live with than the chunky budget handsets it competes against. Motorola kept the 90Hz refresh rate on the 6.5-inch 720p screen, so scrolling feels reasonably fluid, and the MediaTek Helio G37 handles messaging, maps and video without complaint. It will not handle much more than that: 2GB of RAM means background apps close constantly, and the 16MP main camera is a daylight-only proposition. Android 12 Go keeps things light, but its update window has long since closed, so security patches have stopped. The water-repellent coating covers spills rather than submersion. Today it makes most sense as a compact, lightweight spare handset or a simple first phone, rather than something you would rely on all day.
