  Premium pick

  $22 $30 Save

  Otterbox has been one of the premier phone case manufacturers for quite some time because they make quality cases with excellent protection, but we love the Commuter Series Lite for its slim profile but ample protection. Its two-piece design helps protect against drops thanks to its shock-absorbing inner soft slipcover, and then the hard polycarbonate outer shell will keep it safe from scratches and scuffs. Raised edges around the screen and rear camera array let you rest your phone on either side without having to worry about messing up the finish on your Moto G 5G.

  For an inexpensive boost in defense, the Bniut Moto G 5G Case goes all-in on military-grade shock resistance. The inner case is designed to cushion your Moto G in the event of a fall or bump, and that military laurel was earned by dropping the Moto G 3,000 times.

  Tudia DualShield for Moto G 5G (2022)
  

  If you want a simple but stylish case that offers protection without making your phone chunky, the Tudia DualShield case for the Moto G 5G (2022) fits the bill. Despite being light and slim, Tudia claims the case can shield against drops of up to 4 feet in height. The case also has a raised lip around the display and camera to protect against scratches, and ridges on the sides provide a firmer grip.

Choose the case that’s right for you

The fifth generation of mobile networks is here to stay (for the foreseeable future), and devices like the Moto G 5G (2022) make great use of the latest mobile broadcast standard. But on top of improved cell performance, the Moto G 5G isn’t a bare-bones, mid-tier gear by any means.

In fact, for the money, it was one of the better value non-Samsung/non-Google devices around when it launched. This is why it’s extra-important to keep your Moto G 5G as safe as you can for as long as you own it, and an excellent phone case is one of the best precautions you can take.

Our top choice, the Poetic Revolution, offers a lot of protection at a pretty competitive price, making it a fantastic choice for anyone who wants to protect their phone at all costs. The included screen protector is a nice touch, and we appreciate the kickstand that can hold your Moto G 5G up in portrait or landscape orientation.

The Poetic Revolution isn’t necessarily the nicest aesthetic though. If you still want protection but are hoping for something more stylish, the Otterbox Commuter Lite is a great pick for a little more money. Otterbox is known for making solid cases, but the Commuter Series still maintains a decently slim profile with top-notch protection.

Lastly, if you want something simple that provides a little extra grip and protection, the Cresee Clear Cover is as simple as they come. Slip this simple, clear case on and off your phone whenever you want, and never deal with a bulky phone in your pocket.
