Moto Tab G62 LTE Review: Just one step short of being a budget all-rounder

It will be greedy to ask for everything from a budget tablet. Under Rs. 20,000, tablets are all meant for offering a decent viewing experience with a set of great speakers and a decent performance to handle your day-to-day tasks from reading to browsing. And the new Moto Tab G62 LTE perfectly fits the description for budget tablets. At least, the specs say that! It gets 4G connectivity to let you make calls in no Wi-Fi range, a face unlock system, quad speaker setup and stock Android experience to keep the device simple and useful for everyone - everything at the cost of Rs. 17,999. While bringing some of the interesting and essential features on board, does Moto Tab G62 become a perfect budget tablet over its tough competition from Realme, Oppo, Samsung and others? Let's find out.

As usual, Motorola follows its old tradition of carrying a minimalist design, which we have seen in its Android smartphones and now on tablets. Just like its previous attempt at Moto Tab G70, it gets a dual-tone design – more than half dipped in a metallic matte finish, while the rest is of plastic which picks up smudges occasionally. It looks simple yet elegant in its only Frost Blue colour shade. At 465 grams, it doesn't feel heavy with its great work done on weight distribution, still, it can be uncomfortable to use for long hours. Also, sturdy build quality, an IP52 rating and the presence of a 3.5mm audio jack are some winning points of the Moto Tab G62 at this price.

While at the front, it features identical thick bezels on all the sides and a selfie camera sits at the centre of the right side to bring a more laptop-like feel while video calling. Still, you won't find any keyboard case along to make it work like a laptop, nor a stylus
