SAN FRANCISCO, April 14 ― By releasing a mid-range smartphone model with a stylus, Motorola is bringing back a tool that may prove to be more practical than first appears.

In the 2000s, the stylus was nearly always associated with the personal digital assistant or even the first BlackBerry models. Then, with the rise of smartphones, it fell into disuse, a tech has-been. Samsung is the only mainstream brand to be an outlier on the tool, bringing it back to the forefront but only with high-end models ― first with its Galaxy Note range and then with its Galaxy S21 and S22 Ultra models.

Of course, anyone who wishes can purchase a separate stylus, as very few of today's smartphones come with one. But Motorola is betting on the return of this accessory with its new Moto G Stylus, available first in 4G and, soon to be available in a 5G version. While the price and availability of the 5G version have not yet been announced, the Moto G Stylus 4G is priced at just US$299 in the US.
