It appears that Motorola is already working on its next affordable smartphone with a built-in stylus. A new leak has revealed a device with the codename “ORLANDO,” which is believed to be the Moto G Stylus for 2026. This information comes from an IMEI database listing, which is a common source for early information about upcoming phones.<\/p>\n

The device referenced in the leak<\/a> has the model number XT2617. The “XT26” part of the model number suggests a 2026 release, as it follows the pattern of previous Moto G Stylus models. The codename “ORLANDO” also suggests that Motorola is continuing to focus on the North American market for this device.<\/p>\n

There is no official information about the phone’s specifications yet. However, we can look at the previous model, the Moto G Stylus 2025, to get an idea of what to expect.<\/p>\n

That phone had a 6.7-inch pOLED screen, a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor, a 50-megapixel main camera, and a 5,000mAh battery. It also supported 68W fast charging and 15W wireless charging. Hopefully, we can presume the 2026 model will likely have similar or better features. The built-in stylus, which is the main feature of this phone series, will also hopefully be included.<\/p>\n

Competition in the mid-range market<\/p>\n

Motorola is not the only company making affordable smartphones. Samsung’s Galaxy A-series is a major competitor in this market. While the Galaxy A-series phones do not have a built-in stylus, they are a popular choice for many consumers.<\/p>\n

Phones like the Galaxy A36<\/a> and A56 often have better screens and more camera options than the Moto G Stylus. Samsung also typically provides software updates for a longer period of time than Motorola. This is an important factor for people who want to use their phones for several years.<\/p>\n

The Moto G Stylus 2026 is looking like it will be an interesting option for people who want a phone with a stylus but do not want to pay a high price. It shows that Motorola is still committed to making this type of device.<\/p>\n

However, the competition in the smartphone market is strong. For the Moto G Stylus 2026 to be successful, it will need to be a good phone overall, not just a phone with a stylus. Motorola will need to make sure that the phone has a good camera and will receive software updates for a reasonable amount of time. The stylus is a useful feature, but it is not enough on its own to make a phone a great choice for everyone.<\/p>\n
